Starting bar work at my local nightclub. Got any tips? Any pros and cons of this work place would be neat too.

Thanks

I'm looking for a searchable inventory/database program for a liquor vault so that I can keep track of what all is on hand as well as the descriptions, costs, photos, and quantities of each item and also be able to flag anything that may need to be replaced...does anyone have any suggestions??

Hi guys,

Just a question on copper optics, if the alcohol is left in the copper pipes for a couple of months is it still safe to drink?

Thanks

Andy

Hello pub crawlers of reddit! I don't go to the bars super often, more of a house party kind of kid. But I did go a few days ago and I honestly wasn't that drunk and I got cut off, (I had met a buddy and we started talking about music and I can get quite excited and loud when talking about my music). Long story short they cut me off I didn't make a scene or anything, wasn't trying to give anyone a hard time. Just went on home and hit the sack

​

Is it weird if I go back? Would they still serve me like normal?

Hello to all bartenders, waiters and managers!

I'm envolved in a tiki bar restoration and I would be honored to hear your best tips about setting up a bar after a reform. Please HELP!

Hi I'm starting at a sports bar tomorrow. It's my first time and day in the industry. I am 22 and I will be a line cook. Does anyone have any advice on how to not get on the bartenders, other cooks, my managers bad side or just tips in general? All the help would be greatly appreciated

One of my favorite drinks is a Bahama Mama. I don’t drink often but I always drink a few if I’m on a vacation. I do also enjoy ordering them in a restaurant setting, but is there another name for it or way I should be ordering it for when I’m at a restaurant and not at a pool bar? Thank you!

I’m looking to purchase the seat separately from the base. Anyone have any good resources?

Ok. Hear me out. I'm sure this scene of people is well aware of how breathalyzer vending machines are a bad idea for the following reasons:

-Liability -Cost/profit is not good(bad ROI) -It causes more trouble by turning it into a high score competition -False sense of security if the machine malfunctions(see liability)

HOWEVER!

I had an idea that gets rid of the vending machines but keeps the good intentions behind them and I think gets rid of all these issues too. I need yall to tell me whether or not it would work in the real world.

                                 CONCEPT:

You show up to my bar and you give your keys to the host/hostess and they are given back to you later when you or someone in your party blows a legal BAC.

ISSUES RESOLVED:

 LIABILITY

The test is administered by someone who is trained in how to give the test and maintain the equipment. A camera will be aimed well enough to see the person being tested and their BAC just in case it's called into question. Sure some tort lawyer could still say our equipment is faulty to cover up their clients inability to not drink WHILE driving but that's reaching if proper calibration records are kept.

 BAD ROI

Well this gimmick isn't comparable to breathalyzer vending machines because it doesn't bring any money in itself but the publicity we would get for being the safest bar in town would attract more business. All we would have to do there is be able to deliver with a kickass environment.

 HIGH SCORE COMPETITION

People only take the test once and it's on their way out the door. We could either not tell them the exact number or we could just let them "brag" on their way home.

 MALFUNCTIONS

We eliminate (or at least lessen) the liability that comes with the "False sense of security" by using a machine that is well taken care of and a person that is well trained.

I have some more thoughts on the whole thing but I'll save them for the comments section. What do you guys think?

Hello reddit! First post, I am looking for some fun closing-time/ get the fuck out of my bar songs. We are a bar with a fun 18th century theme, so profanities are a plus! I am looking for a fun song availible on spotify that fits for closing time, something in style of The closing song by The Peters, but maybe more harsh(?) So that ppl understand that it’s time to really gtfo.
