Job description


WANTED: Dive Bar Bartender Extraordinaire!

About Us:

We’re not your run-of-the-mill joint. Dave’s dates back to prohibition, recently renovated, Dave’s has more stories than a seasoned sailor and more character than a vintage jukebox. We’re the place where locals swap tales, shoot pool, and occasionally break into impromptu dance-offs. Belt a good note out …, or not at Karaoke, or just enjoy a game on TV. If you’re looking for a cookie-cutter gig, keep scrolling. But if you’re ready to pour drinks, share laughs, and become part of this cool neighborhood Glendale Gem, with no fuss but great style read on.

Position: Bartender
  • Location: Dave’s on Broadway, Glendale, CA
  • Hours: Late nights, early mornings, and everything in between (because that’s how cool bars roll)
  • Pay: Competitive (plus tips – because we believe in good karma and generous pours made by the best bartenders with skills and passion)

Qualifications:
  • Experience: You’ve bartended in a previous life (or at least watched Tom Cruise in “Cocktail” a few times)
  • Personality: You’re the life of the party, you love diving into making great drinks, engaging in fun exciting conversations while looking your LA best
  • Skills: You can mix a mean cocktail, pour a perfect pint, and handle the occasional karaoke request without flinching
  • Tolerance: You’re unfazed by spilled beer, questionable dance moves, and the guy who insists on ordering a “surprise me” drink

Responsibilities:
  • Mixology Magic: Shake, stir, and garnish like a boss. Bonus points if you can create a signature cocktail for the seasonal menus
  • People Whisperer: Chat up the regulars, listen to their life stories and pass along good gossip
  • Atmosphere Architect: Set the vibe – dim the lights, light the candles, crank up the tunes, and make sure the pool table is level (because we take our games seriously)
  • Emergency Therapist: When someone spills their heart out (or their drink), be there with a sympathetic nod and a fresh napkin cause we’ve all been there!

 

Perks:
  • Free Popcorn: Because nothing makes you cozy, more than the smell of Popcorn wafting in the air
  • Jukebox Privileges: You get to skip the line and play your guilty pleasure song whenever you want.  If you can portray Piper Perabo in Coyote Ugly, you are sure to make grand tips!
  • Regulars Who Feel Like Family: They’ll remember your name, your birthday, and probably your ex’s name too…. Maybe more then you’ll remember theirs!

How to Apply:

Send us your résumé (or a napkin with your life story scribbled on it) to chris@dob1932.com. Bonus points if you include a haiku about your favorite bar moment.
