Bartenders go through our full server training prior to completing their bartender training. While it can be tedious for some to think about all that training, for the right bartender who wants to know how to best serve their guests as well as how to make our signature cocktails to spec, this roadmap sets you, the trainee up for success.

We are a high volume, fast paced bar, and our cocktails are designed to be built in this environment. If you are looking for a slow-paced boutique cocktail bar with extensive creative freedom, we may not be what you are looking for.
