Greeting the Guest(s) and Preparing
them to order: The first thing the bartender should do is to make the
guests feel welcome in the same way the bartendermake an old friend feel welcome at home. Smile whenguests arrive to the bar and make sure they know youhave pleasingly recognized their presence. If possible,suggest a seat close to others sitting at the bar. If tablesare an option and there are no reservations give them achoice. The overall focus is to make guests feel as ifthey are not strangers and should not act as such.

Offering Services of the Bar to the Guest(s):
If guest is now ready to order, smile and ask what he orshe or the group would like to order.
In this part, the skill of the bartender is often put to
the test. Some of the guest will deliberately try to testthe bartender by requesting a drink that a guest thinksthe bartender dont know yet. In this case the bestthing a bartender can do is to happily tell the guest
that the drink shall be made if he or she is glad toinstruct in its creation.
8/13/2019 Chapter 2 Bar Organization
9/39
Preparing Order(s) of the Guest(s): The bartender should prepare all drink orders as fast as
he could with focus on sanitation, precision, andexcellent presentation. If in case there is somedifficulty, the bartender should in his bestacknowledge the problem and attempt again. If theguest is dissatisfied with the result, the bartendershould smilingly offer to prepare again the drink to theguests specifications free of charge (depending uponthe policy of the establishment)

Completing Transaction: In most cash bars, its common practice that payment
is due upon deliver of service or pay as you order. Inthis instance, the bartender should tell the guest the
amount of the drink while presenting it an do thetransaction by accepting the cash and establishing eyecontact with the guest and making changes as fast aspossible so as to reduce the amount of time thebartenders attention is away from the guests. Changeshould be placed at the hand of the guest if possiblewhile establishing again an eye contact and declaringhow much is the change.

In the instance that a guest wishes to keep a tab/list of
orders or guest will pay or settle the bill after servingthem or before they leave. There are two ways ofhandling this. The first is to keep a cash tab for thepatron. Usually this is done by recording each drink on
a slip of paper by hand and asking the guest to sign it.
The second way is to run a guests credit card andcharge each drink separately to the electronically
stored card number.

Checking Back on Guest(s) in a
Timely Manner: Checking on the guest is a key to bartender success. Several
guests may require more than one instance of service and aprofessional bartender knows this. Most bartenders use arounds approach where they keep mental track of theorder of guests they have served and repeat that sequencein their follow-up.
The most simple and effective technique is to simply lookat the glasses on the bar table. The guest with the least inhis or her glass will probably require service first. But thebartender should also consider the number of drinks thatguest already have before offering another drink for its hisresponsibility to make sure guests are not intoxicated.

Say farewell and thank you the guests and
welcome them back: Farewell to the guests is one of the most important
part of good bartending. Just as every guest should beacknowledged upon their arrival, they should also bewell acknowledged upon departure. The guest shouldbe acknowledged not because they are good tipper butits how a professional bartender should do his job.Good or bad tipper, guest must be given the same
treatment. The guest knows when to tip and howmuch tip to give depending upon their satisfaction ofthe service they get.
8/13/2019 Chapter 2 Bar Organization
14/39
The most successful professional bartenders learn the
names of all their guests and are certain to use themwhen said guest leave. Doing this will make the guestfeel very important.
A sincere thank you to the guest is required on her orhis departure along with an indication that she or he isalways welcome to come again to the bar.
Professional bartenders never display money to a well-tipping guest. Doing this is an act ofunprofessionalism.
