We're in the middle of an exciting transformation — reimagining one of Clitheroe's most loved pubs into a destination gastropub. From curated beers and wines to signature cocktails, our bar is a place where quality meets community.
The Role
We're looking for a passionate and energetic Bartender to join our team. You'll be at the heart of our bar — mixing both classic favourites and creative new serves, while delivering warm, memorable service that keeps guests coming back.

* Mix & Serve Drinks – prepare a variety of cocktails, beers, wines, and non-alcoholic drinks with consistency and flair.
* Customer Interaction – greet guests warmly, take orders, and create a welcoming, lively atmosphere.
* Maintain Cleanliness – keep the bar organised, spotless, and fully stocked with clean glassware and tools.
* Inventory Support – monitor stock levels and assist with reordering to ensure we're always ready to serve.
* Promote Specials – highlight new drinks, seasonal serves, and promotions to enhance the guest experience.
* Handle Payments – process cash and card payments accurately and responsibly.
* Team Collaboration – work closely with the wider team to deliver seamless service across the pub.
About You
* Previous bartending experience preferred (but training provided for the right person).
* Knowledge of cocktails, spirits, and bar techniques is a bonus.
* Excellent communication and people skills — you love engaging with customers.
* Calm, reliable, and confident in a fast-paced environment.
* Flexible and happy to work evenings and weekends.
What We Offer
* Competitive pay (£12.25 p/h) + tips.
* Flexible scheduling to suit your lifestyle.
* Opportunities to grow and develop within an expanding gastropub team.
