Job DescriptionJob DescriptionDescription: At de Lazy Lizard, bartenders are the heartbeat of the island - keeping drinks flowing fast, accurate, and consistent in a high-volume, waterfront, island-time environment. This role calls for speed, focus, organization, and personality - all while following strict recipes, company standards, and Maryland state alcohol laws. The Bartender is responsible for preparing and serving alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages for both direct bar guests and high-volume service bar tickets, delivering efficient, professional, and compliant service every step of the way.
