ABOUT TUG'S

TUG'S is a new high-energy bar & restaurant opening at 1200 Ocean Drive, Miami Beach. Cold beer, smash burgers,

fried everything, frozen drinks, sports and a lot of fun — an unpretentious neighborhood spot in the heart of South Beach,

built around Tug, our bulldog. No reservations, no attitude, high volume all day and late into the night.

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR

We are building this brand from day one, and we hire for attitude: highly motivated people who want to grow and develop

in a high-volume environment. We look for big personalities and natural charisma, strong salespeople who genuinely love

recommending food and drinks, team players who hustle, and people excited to help grow a brand-new concept — the

team that opens TUG'S will be the first in line for leadership roles as we grow.

JOB SUMMARY

Prepare timely, accurate, high-quality drinks — frozens, mojitos, margaritas, and beach classics — for the bar and the

service well in a high-volume room. TUG'S bartenders are the show at the center of the house: fast hands, big personality,

clean bar, and guests who come back to sit with you.

ACTIVITIES & RESPONSIBILITIES

• Promote, work, and act in a manner consistent with the mission of TUG'S: cold beer, great food, and a great time for

every guest — served fast, with personality, so they come back with friends.

• Prepare and serve alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks consistent with TUG'S standard recipes and specs (frozen

program, mojitos, margaritas, mules, zero-proof and house sodas).

• Present drink menus, make recommendations, and answer beverage questions; sell the signature and souvenir-cup

program.

• Take orders from guests at the bar and from service staff; ring every order accurately and immediately.

• Check identification of guests to verify age requirements for alcohol.

• Accept payments, process cards, and balance cash receipts at close.

• Recognize and learn the names of regular guests.

• Serve responsibly: monitor consumption, slow-serve or stop service when appropriate, and arrange transportation for

intoxicated guests.

• Stock and prep the bar (beer, liquor, ice, glassware, garnish); slice fruit and prepare garnishes before peak.

• Keep the bar clean, organized, and attractive at all times — counters, wells, glassware, displays.

• Support batch prep for the frozen machines and communicate 86s to the team immediately.

• Attend all scheduled team meetings and bring suggestions for improvement.

QUALIFICATIONS & REQUIREMENTS

• High-volume bartending experience strongly preferred (beach bar, club, or busy restaurant).

• Speed and consistency on specs; comfortable with frozen programs and big rounds.

• Charisma and salesmanship — the bar is a stage and a revenue engine.

• Must be able to work nights, weekends, and holidays.

• Florida Responsible Vendor / alcohol compliance training (or willingness to complete on hire).

• Able to stand for full shifts and lift up to 50 lbs (kegs, ice, cases).

• English required; Spanish or other languages a big plus.
