Bartender | Serving Opportunities Available

Craft Exceptional Cocktails. Deliver Exceptional Hospitality.

At PJ Lobster House, our bartenders are an essential part of the guest experience. While you'll provide outstanding service to guests seated at our 8-seat bar, your primary responsibility is operating our high-volume service bar, preparing cocktails quickly, accurately, and consistently for our busy dining room.

This position is ideal for someone who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment, communicates well with both guests and coworkers, and takes pride in delivering exceptional hospitality. Attention to detail, efficiency, and consistency are essential to success in this role.

Beyond mixing drinks, our bartenders become knowledgeable about our extensive seafood menu, confidently recommend food and beverage pairings, support takeout operations, answer telephones, and assist guests with menu questions to ensure every customer receives outstanding service.

At PJ Lobster House, teamwork is one of our core values. During quieter months, everyone contributes to the success of the restaurant. Bartenders assist with answering telephones, processing takeout orders, seating guests when needed, cleaning and sanitizing menus, and supporting the front-of-house team wherever necessary to deliver an exceptional guest experience.

If you enjoy creating quality cocktails, working efficiently under pressure, and being part of a professional team that values hospitality, consistency, and teamwork, you'll thrive at PJ Lobster House.

This is a bartending-first position, with additional serving opportunities available based on business needs, experience, and performance.
