I worked here full time for 2 years and it was easily the most chill yet structured restaurant workplace I’ve worked in. If you show up on time and work hard you will be rewarded. Shifts are fairly spread out and most people are full time now which shows the management improvement. Always a busy location so consistent hours.

Horrible unnecessary gossip with their "shift leaders", superiority complex throughout the roof. no regard for risk of sun stroke, lack of support in all ends. their power shuts down way too often. although their GM is great, tap&barrel culture is not it. average of 150-200 on a hot sunny day where you should be making 2-3 times that for the work you do.

You make money in the summer but the management team is horrible. All they are about is labor. They don't communicate, also lost our GM and AGM within a year. Most of the good management team left. The new managers have no idea what they are doing...

You make money in the summer but the management team is horrible. All they are about is labor. They don't communicate, also lost our GM and AGM within a year. Most of the good management team left. The new managers have no idea what they are doing. The training was better during the open now its all over the place. You are def a body to make the managers/company money. Co workers are great tho.

I would not recommend this company. They are only profit focused which makes it very difficult to go above and beyond for your tables. They do not care about their employees and will call you off every shift for weeks on end unless you are friends with the managers. You do not advance based on your skill or abilities but rather who you are friends with. Workplace bullying is very present at this establishment and nothing is ever done about it.
