Job Description
Hobgoblin is a vibrant, multi-level gastropub located in the heart of Downtown Crossing. Known for its unique blend of Asian-fusion tapas, Hobgoblin offers guests an unforgettable dining and beverage experience. The establishment features a dynamic beverage program that includes craft cocktails, magical-themed potions, 20 rotating draft beers sourced locally and internationally, and a carefully curated wine selection. The gastropub's lively atmosphere is enhanced by live music several nights a week, making it a popular destination for both locals and visitors seeking a fun, social environment with a touch of magic and creativity.
The Role
Hobgoblin is seeking enthusiastic and creative bartenders to join its dynamic team. This role offers a unique opportunity to work in a high-energy setting where bartenders can showcase their mixology skills and creativity.

Those in this role will contribute to the development of seasonal menus and have the chance to design their own cocktail specials, fostering an environment that values innovation and guest engagement. The position requires individuals who can deliver warm, engaging, and professional service while maintaining efficiency behind a busy and organized bar.
In addition to technical bartending skills, candidates must ensure responsible alcohol service in compliance with Massachusetts state laws, complete opening and closing duties, and participate in side work to support the overall operations of the bar. Collaboration with team members is essential to maintain a positive and welcoming atmosphere, enhancing the guest experience. With competitive hourly tips, flexible scheduling, and employee discounts, Hobgoblin offers a supportive and fun workplace for bartenders eager to grow their careers in hospitality and mixology.
