Bar staff are employed in restaurants, and bars to primarily service customers with drinks, and secondarily, food(occasionally other things such as cigarettes and cigars).

In some situations, bar staff may only dispense drinks and snacks such as nuts and potato crisps. In other situations (eg. at a pub), bar staff may be required to take orders for "counter meals", and dispense the meals after they have been prepared by the cook.

General duties for bar staff at all times will be:

*Providing Service to customers

*Cleaning (including the bar, tables & glass ware)

*Customer Relations

Bar staff often have duties segregated from food service staff; although in many restaurants, the same person might perform both duties. Essentially food service staff are responsible for meals and bar staff for drinks and light snacks. Menus can vary significantly depending on the type of establishment. In today’s ever changing world, there is increasing innovation, and the rules of traditional bar service are increasingly broken. As such, bar staff may very often find themselves performing various food service duties.
