Job Description

Red Robin Gourmet Burgers and Brews is a high-volume, full-service restaurant renowned for its laid-back atmosphere and quirky vibe. Known for serving burgers 'beyond yumagination' and world-famous steak fries, the company has created a brand that celebrates connection, fun, and generosity. Red Robin values a diverse and inclusive work environment where employees of different backgrounds feel a genuine sense of belonging. With a strong focus on hospitality, Red Robin’s mission is clear: Make it fresh. Make it fun. Make it memorable. And above all, make 'em smile. The restaurant’s commitment to delivering exceptional guest experiences has established it as a beloved and popular dining destination.

Bartenders at Red Robin play an essential role in bringing this mission to life. As an integral part of the Front of House service team, bartenders are responsible for delivering exceptional guest service with efficiency, confidence, and a personable approach. They must be experts on all beverage-related matters to enhance customers' dining experiences. This position is ideal for individuals who enjoy engaging with guests, have a passion for mixology, and thrive in a vibrant, team-oriented environment. In addition to a base pay rate of $2.13 per hour plus tips—which combined will ensure pay is never below the applicable minimum wage—bartenders have significant earning opportunities through variable tips. This role requires individuals to be 21 or older and have prior experience in bartending, bar backing, or serving preferred but not mandatory.

Red Robin offers flexible work schedules to accommodate the unique needs of its employees, along with a 50% discount on Red Robin food for staff and a 25% discount for their family members. The company promotes team growth through referral bonuses when new members join the team. Additional compensation and benefits make this a rewarding career path, including eligibility for health insurance coverage that includes medical, vision, dental, accident, critical illness, and hospital indemnity plans for employees aged 18 and over. Retirement planning is supported through a 401(k) plan with company matching up to 4% of pay for employees aged 21 and older who meet required service and hours worked. Paid time off is accrued based on hours worked for employees with one or more years of service and a minimum of 35 hours worked per week. The application process is continuously open, reflecting Red Robin’s eagerness to onboard passionate individuals who share the company’s core values and enthusiasm for unbridled hospitality. Many current managers started as hourly team members, showcasing excellent opportunities for career growth within the company.

As a bartender at Red Robin, you will not only craft cocktails and serve beverages but also become part of a team that prioritizes fun, inclusiveness, and memorable guest interactions. Your role will be crucial to maintaining the elevated guest experience that Red Robin strives to deliver while enjoying a flexible schedule, competitive earning potential, and comprehensive benefits. Join Red Robin Gourmet Burgers and Brews today and grow your hospitality career in a welcoming, energetic environment where your personality and skills can truly shine.
