RFI Response
Lead Bartenders/Servers perform both bartending and dining-room service duties within the same shift, with the specific mix being determined and assigned by managers depending on business levels at any given time.
During a shift, the employee's primary station is behind the bar, serving food and drinks to guests seated at the bar.
As business volume increases and the restaurant becomes busier, the employee may step away from the bar to take a table in the dining room, at which point they can take food and drink orders and serve customers seated at tables.
Lead Bartenders/Servers may also be assigned a section of tables in the dining room in addition to, or in place of, their bar duties for a given shift.
