Bar Foundations

Connect drink service to safety, music, dancing, hospitality and venue reputation.

Identify wells, service points, storage, exits, utilities, handoffs and traffic risks.

Arrive prepared, sober, presentable, rested and ready to protect the room.

Prevent contamination through handwashing, glove judgment, wound control and illness reporting.

Choose, carry, clean and retire glassware without chips, heat shock or cross-contact.

Protect ice from hands, glass, chemicals and flavor contamination while managing supply.

Use measured pours to protect balance, cost, consistency and responsible service.

Build a station where every bottle, tool, garnish and backup has a known place.

Verify sanitation, temperatures, cash, stock, equipment and service readiness before doors.

Clean, count, secure, document and leave the next shift a trustworthy bar.
