The Auctioneer Bar (under new management), the centerpiece of Durham Food Hall, is seeking an enthusiastic and career-minded Bartender to guide our lively bar crew. The Auctioneer Bar is known for their craft cocktails, local beer, curated wines, and sustainable values. The Auctioneer prides itself on highlighting local and regional spirits, housemade items like syrups, cordials, and dehydrated garnishes along with products that maintain organic or biodynamic values. We prepare drinks for guests at a fast pace while maintaining the utmost warmth and welcoming hospitality. The Auctioneer Bar is the heart of the hall, often making the bartenders a main attraction. Bartenders must know how to command a busy room and also seek out opportunities for sales during slower times. Durham Food Hall is an inclusive and fun community space for both locals and visitors to enjoy. Surrounded by 7 chef-driven restaurants, a coffee shop, bubble tea, and a bakery, no two days are the same behind the bar. Come join our spirited team at The Auctioneer Bar where there’s always someone to say hello to and something delicious to craft for them to enjoy!
