We employ cutting-edge techniques such as dry-ice, spherification, clarification, carbonation and flavoured edible-airs.

We serve drinks on fire, drinks in lightbulbs and drinks in edible cups.

We believe that training is the most important part of making sure that a team member feels comfortable, valued and respected.

All members of the bar support team will be set on a training plan that suits their availability and personal commitments.

If you are part time or full time, we will find a plan that allows you to grow at a comfortable pace.

Our menu includes upwards of 30 homemade ingredients; each of which the bar support team play a key role is preparing and delivering.

Bar support roles are great for anybody who wishes to start a journey to becoming a bartender, they are also a perfect role for anybody with bags of personality who loves the hospitality industry.

We train our bar support on beers, wines and spirits. Along with ensuring their barista skills are on point.
