Chicago Bartender Jobs Overview

A sandwich walks into a bar. The bartender says, “Sorry, we don’t serve food here.”

If you spend enough time in bartender jobs, you will hear every “walks into a bar” joke ever written. A good bartender is likely to laugh along since being friendly with customers is one of the keys to success in the bartending industry.

And according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the best bartenders are going to be in high demand. The BLS is projecting an impressive 32% growth in bartending jobs over the next 10 years, mostly in full-service restaurants and bars. Additional bartender jobs are opening up as more grocery stores and movie theaters offer beverage service to their customers.

Along with mixing and serving drinks, a bartender is often responsible for cleaning the bar, tables, and work areas, ordering liquor from suppliers, and preparing garnishes. Many bars offer food, requiring bartenders to take and serve orders. Two of the most critical responsibilities of bartenders are to make sure customers are of legal drinking age and to monitor customers to make sure they are not intoxicated to the point of impairment.

About Working in Chicago, Illinois

If you're going to Chicago to experience "da Bears," deep-dish pizza, and windy streets, native Chicagoans say "fogetta 'bout it!" While these have made Chicago famous, you'll find many locals eating thin-crust, tavern-style pie. Plus, the city isn't on any list of the windiest cities in the U.S.—a local newspaper named it "The Windy City" after the Chicago elite's propensity toward boastfulness and self-promotion. And while the Chicago jobs list (hit jobs, that is) includes notorious mobsters from Chicago like Al Capone, John Dillinger, and Baby Face Nelson, linguists are noticing that the "Chicago accent" is disappearing.

However, there's a reason Condé Nast Traveler has named Chicago the "best big city in the U.S." Chicago is home to top universities, including Northwestern University, Wheaton College, and Valparaiso. And if you're looking for Chicago jobs, you can relocate to any one of the city's unique neighborhoods, such as North Center with its cozy Irish pubs and breweries or Uptown, the lively entertainment district. For those who want to live further out from the city, you can also find jobs in popular suburbs including Cicero, Oak Park, and Evanston.
