      If you love shaking up cocktails and have a passion for flavour-making, this could be the ideal part-time job for you

      We've got some exciting plans for 2024 and are now looking for experienced cocktail bartenders to help mix things up in Winchester.

      Our Bartenders are responsible for making drinks on spec to a consistently high standard and deliver them in a timely manner.

We pride ourselves in delivering a high quality of classic cocktails and contemporary spins so you'll need to really care about the drinks you make.

      Your passion for quality spirits and flavour-making will be really useful in helping management to come up with new drinks for the menu too and it'll help you talk to our discerning guests about what they're drinking.

      This is a great opportunity for an experienced drinks professional looking for a role in which they can get creative and stamp their mark on an award-winning, independent business. We're looking for someone who is hard-working, resilient and will be committed to supporting our business in a period of exciting change.
