Step back in time to an 1800’s saloon at the Southern Turf building, a spectacular and historic Queen Anne structure built in 1839. Unique 18th century museum quality artifacts and antiques inside the Southern Turf Club include four fireplaces – all over 100 years old, vintage oriental rugs, leather-bound books, apothecary jars, a hand-carved wall from a Scottish pub from the 1700’s, a wooden bench previously owned by 17th century English poet John Milton (the writer of Paradise Lost) and offers curated cigars, a full bar and delectable small bites (along with a $35K display-only bottle of Rip Van Winkle whiskey from 1916). The membership based Southern Turf Club, located at 222 4th Ave. North in downtown Nashville, sits atop the legendary Skull’s Rainbow Room and Sinatra Bar & Lounge.

A bartender is responsible for providing a positive and friendly guest experience by interacting with patrons while satisfying their beverage needs. An understanding of mixing beverages using an extensive range of ingredients including liquor, bitters, soda, water, sugar, and fruits is an integral part of the job.
