| Aspect | Bar Manager | Bartender |
|---|---|---|
| Credentials | Often requires managerial experience, certifications in responsible alcohol service | Typically needs bartending certification or alcohol service training |
| Work Environment | Oversees bar operations, manages staff, handles inventory | Prepares and serves drinks directly to customers |
| Employer & Industry Usage | Used in bars, restaurants, hotels for management roles | Commonly employed in bars, clubs, restaurants for customer service |
The main difference between a Bar Manager and a Bartender is that the Bar Manager oversees the entire bar operation, manages staff, and handles administrative tasks, while the Bartender focuses on preparing and serving drinks to customers. Both roles require knowledge of alcohol service, but the Bar Manager's role is more supervisory and managerial, whereas the Bartender's role is more customer-facing and hands-on.
The job of a bar manager involves overseeing daily operations. Their responsibilities are to manage bartenders, encourage sales, and interact with customers. The other responsibilities of someone in this position are to develop new beverages, ensure that the bar meets all regulations, and manage inventory, track sales, and facilitate maintenance when necessary. The qualifications that you need to work as a bar manager vary. Many employers promote from within or look for candidates with experience in a similar environment, often as bartenders or other service staff.

IT ALL STARTED 35 YEARS AGO WITH TWO GUYS DRIVEN BY HUNGER
The year was 1982.
Jim Disbrow and Scott Lowery had recently moved to Ohio from Buffalo, New York. All was fine until one day when the two were craving wings. Not just ordinary wings, but authentic Buffalo, New York-style chicken wings. With none to be found nearby, Jim and Scott had two choices: road trip to New York, or open a wing joint close to home. Lucky for us, they chose the latter. Hence, the beginning of Buffalo Wild Wings & Weck, now Buffalo Wild Wings, the welcoming neighborhood atmosphere with a front-row seat for every sports fan that offers 21 mouth-watering signature sauces and seasonings.
