Job Description

Manhattan Beach Post, founded by renowned Chef David LeFevre, is an eclectic and chef-driven restaurant located in the vibrant Manhattan Beach area. Since its opening in April 2011, the restaurant has established a reputation for soulful, high-quality food paired with engaging and attentive service. The venue is not only celebrated for its culinary excellence but also for its thoughtful and creative hand-crafted cocktails and a curated boutique wine selection. Manhattan Beach Post combines the charm of a relaxed coastal atmosphere with the sophistication of a contemporary dining experience, creating a warm and inviting environment for guests to enjoy both exceptional cuisine and drinks.

We are currently seeking passionate, experienced, and motivated Bartenders/Mixologists to join the Manhattan Beach Post family. This role is perfect for individuals who are deeply committed to the art and craft of cocktail making and who thrive on providing outstanding guest service. The ideal candidate will have a minimum of three years of bartending experience, especially behind bars focused on hand-crafted cocktails, micro-brewed beers, and nuanced wine programs. This position requires a perfectionist with exceptional craftsmanship skills, capable of preparing classic cocktails like the perfect Sazerac or a balanced Hemingway Daiquiri, as well as dynamically creating unique drinks on the fly based on guest preferences while maintaining impeccable flavor harmony.

This role emphasizes the importance of guest interaction and prioritizes service above all else. Beyond technical cocktail skills, the successful candidate will share a passion and knowledge for food that aligns with the high standards of the restaurant’s service team. Integrity, humility, respect, and a commitment to hospitality are core values for every team member at Manhattan Beach Post. The working schedule requires flexibility, with a preference for availability during dinner hours on weekdays and brunch and dinner service on weekends. This position offers an extraordinary opportunity for bartenders who are enthusiastic about hospitality, relationship-building, and who believe in the integrity of well-crafted cocktails. If you are a bartender who takes pride in your craft and is committed to creating memorable guest experiences, Manhattan Beach Post welcomes your application.
