Bartenders mix drink orders either directly from
customers at the bar or through waiters and waitresses
who place drink orders for dining room customers.
Bartenders must know a wide range of drink recipes and
be able to mix drinks correctly and quickly. When
measuring and pouring beverages, they must avoid
spillage or over pouring. They also must work well with
waiters and waitresses and other kitchen staff to ensure
that customers receive prompt service.
Some establishments, especially busy establishments with
many customers, use equipment that automatically
measures and pours drinks at the push of a button.
Bartenders who use this equipment, however, still must
become familiar with the ingredients for special drink
requests and be able to work quickly to handle numerous
drink orders.
In addition to mixing and serving drinks, bartenders
stock and prepare garnishes for drinks and maintain an
adequate supply of ice, glasses, and other bar supplies.
They also wash glassware and utensils and serve food to
customers who eat at the bar. Bartenders are usually
responsible for ordering and maintaining an inventory of
liquor, mixers, and other bar supplies.
