A bartender is someone who serves drinks behind a
bar in a bar, pub, tavern or similar
establishment. This usually includes alcoholic
beverages of some kind, such as beer (both
draught and bottled), wine and/or cocktails, as
well as soft drinks or other non-alcoholic
beverages. In establishments where cocktails are
served, bartenders are expected to be able to mix
hundreds to thousands of different drinks.
Bartenders also usually serve as the public image
of the bar they tend, contributing to as well as
reflecting the atmosphere of the bar. In
establishments focused more on food, this can
mean the bartender is all but invisible.

4Job Prospects

Forecast 9 percent employment growth for
bartenders from 2010 to 2020, slower than the
average for all occupations. This job outlook is
due to several factors including the growing bar
and restaurant openings around the country and
the need to staff them, as well as the continued
trend of many people dining out at these
establishments. A steady amount of turnover in
this field also accounts for continued
employment. However, the increasing trend of
restaurant take-out or carryout services, may
limit the employment growth of bartenders.
