Now Open | Hiring Experienced High-Volume Bartenders

Ophelia Tavern & Bar Top are now open at The Dale in Avondale Estates, bringing together two distinct but connected hospitality experiences. We’re seeking experienced Bartenders and Mixologists who can confidently manage high-volume service while delivering consistent cocktails and genuine, attentive hospitality.

Ophelia Tavern is a refined neighborhood gathering place serving Italian-inspired comfort food in a welcoming, no-fuss atmosphere. Our menu features pizzas crisped in 600-degree ovens, pastas tossed in scratch-made sauces, thoughtfully prepared entrées, sandwiches, salads, and small plates made for sharing. With inviting indoor and patio seating, Ophelia pairs its food with handcrafted cocktails, a whiskey-forward bar program with a focus on Old Fashioneds, and a well-rounded selection of beer and wine.

Located upstairs, Bar Top is a 21-and-over rooftop bar featuring a spacious covered patio overlooking the Town Green at The Dale. A cozy indoor bar, fireplace, and private event space complement the rooftop setting. Classic cocktails, creative mocktails, local draft and bottled beers, curated wines, and shareable bites create a relaxed yet energetic gathering place.

We’re looking for bartenders who bring speed, personality, consistency, organization, and strong product knowledge to every shift. You should be comfortable managing a full bar, keeping up with service tickets, connecting with guests, and supporting your teammates throughout a busy service.
