About 540 Social:
540 Social isn't your average bar - it's a full blown experience. We've got a stacked bar, arcade games, axe throwing, themed nights, and a ton of energy every night of the week. Whether you're a student looking to get into bartending or a pro who thrives where things are always moving, 540 Social is the place to be. We're all about great service, good vibes, and a crew that's got each other's backs.
The Job:
As a bartender at 540 Social, you're right in the middle of all of it - mixing drinks, keeping the energy up, and making sure everyone's having a great time. You'll be in a fast-paced, high-volume environment where personality, teamwork, and hustle all matter. One minute you're slinging cocktails, the next you're chatting with guests or jumping in to help a teammate. It's never boring - and that's kind of the point.

- Mix up alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks (cocktails, beer, wine — the works)
- Chat with guests, make recommendations, and keep things fun
- Upsell drinks or snacks to keep guests happy and boost sales
- Keep the bar clean, stocked, and organized — nobody likes sticky counters
- Check IDs and serve responsibly according to VA law
- Handle cash, run tabs, and work the POS (Toast) like a pro
- Watch for signs of over-intoxication and keep things safe
- Work with the front desk and kitchen teams to keep everything running smoothly
- Handle the rush, stay calm under pressure, and jump in wherever you’re needed
What We're Looking For:
- Must be 21+
- Bartending experience is awesome but not required
- Strong communication and multitasking skills
- Cool under pressure with a positive attitude
- Reliable, punctual, and a solid team player
- Able to work nights, weekends, game days, and holidays
