Full Job Description

About Bag Lady's Fry Joint

Bag Lady's Fry Joint is Nashville's original fry-first fast casual restaurant, located in the Buchanan Street Arts District in North Nashville. We have earned multiple Nashville Scene Best Fries awards, national media coverage, and a loyal community built on flavor and neighborhood pride. We are an emerging brand with real momentum and we are building the team that takes us to the next level.

The Role

We are hiring two Drink Program Specialists to build and run our bar and beverage experience. This is a newly created position that sits at the intersection of bartender and server. You will be stationed behind our fully equipped bar. You own every drink that leaves it. You prepare all beverages, deliver them to tables in glass, upsell our bar menu to every dine-in guest, handle refills proactively, and close guest checks tableside using a handheld device. You are the hospitality anchor of our dining room. This is a role for someone who understands that going above and beyond is not optional. It is the standard.

Pay and Compensation

Base pay: $15.41 to $18.29 per hour based on experience
Pay frequency: Weekly direct deposit
Tips: You keep 70% of all tips you generate. 30% is distributed to the supporting team through our tip pool program
Bar commission: 8% on all alcohol sales you personally ring, activating at week five
Merchandise commission: 10% on all merchandise you personally sell, active from your first shift
Both commissions are calculated weekly and paid with your regular check
Team meal provided on every shift
Staff discount on all Bag Lady's food and merchandise

What You Will Do

Operate as the primary beverage lead during your shift, stationed behind the bar between all table deliveries
Prepare all dine-in beverages including non-alcoholic drinks, cocktails, and beer and deliver every order to the table in glass
Greet every table with warmth and confidence, confirm their order, and make a genuine recommendation to add a drink from our bar menu
Monitor the dining room from your station and make proactive floor visits for refills before guests have to ask
Upsell the bar program and branded merchandise at every opportunity in a natural and hospitable way
Process all guest payments tableside using a handheld point of sale device and close all dine-in checks at the table
Ring all merchandise sales through your assigned device for proper commission tracking
Maintain the bar clean, organized, and fully stocked throughout your entire shift
Prep cocktail components before peak service periods as directed by management
Comply fully with Tennessee ABC regulations including responsible service, monitoring guest consumption, and refusing service when appropriate
Declare all cash tips at the end of each shift in compliance with federal tip reporting requirements
Communicate openly with the General Manager about guest concerns, bar supply needs, and any operational challenges
Show up ready, bring energy, and do more than what is written here. That is the expectation at Bag Lady's

Confidence making drink recommendations to guests in a natural, conversational way
Experience with a handheld or tableside point of sale system preferred
Ability to move efficiently between the bar and dining room without losing control of either
Composure and professionalism during high-volume service periods
