Has anyone ever attended bar tending school?

Question

does it pay good, how long is the course and is it easy to find a job?

Answer 1

You are better off getting a job as a bar-back(assistant to a bartender) and learning on the job.  All chain restaurants have training manuals for all jobs and some prefer to train rather than retrain. It can be a difficult job to get, you must be persistent.One of the major necessities of bartending at a good-paying job is the ability to work under stressful conditions at a fast pace, if you can't do that, bartender-training school will be a waste of time and money, you will never make it. As a professional restaurateur of many years, I only knew 1 bartender who went to school for it.
