Who says service only happens behind the bar? ๐๐
We took our service industry skills OUTSIDE the service industry and put them to work where theyโre needed most! ๐๐พ
Because bartenders, servers, chefs & hospitality folks know a thing or two about showing up, jumping in, getting it doneโand making people feel taken care of.

โจ Hospitality is better when we build it together. โจ
The United States Bartendersโ Guild is more than an organizationโit's a community where hospitality professionals connect, learn, collaborate, and grow.
And we're growing...we want YOU to be a part of it.
Your ideas. Your talents. Your perspective. Your feedback. It all has a place here.
We know our local hospitality community has so much knowledge, creativity, and passion to offer. So let's push each other, pull each other up, and help shape an industry where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
Whether you're behind the bar, managing a program, brand-side, educating, or just getting started, there's a seat at the table for you.
Come build with us. ๐ค
Drop a ๐ธ in the comments if you're ready to connect, or DM us to learn how to join the family....or simply tap the link in our bio to join!
Together, we'll raise the bar.
Because WE are the bar. ๐ฅ
