If I am 18, am I automatically eligible to serve alcoholic beverages in Florida?

Question

I am applying for a job with the Marriot to hostess and maybe wait tables in one of their restaurants. They want to know if I am eligible to serve alcohol, and I am 18. I will not be applying for any bar-tending positions, so do I need some kind of special license or anything? Or does age automatically qualify you to serve alcoholic beverages?

Answer 1

Drinking age is 21 in Florida, so I'd be surprised if you could serve alcohol at 18

Answer 2

It depends on the employer

Answer 3

Did they ask if you could specifically serve alcohol? Or just that you were 18? If they have a liqour license, they should know that answer. Every employer i've worked for has asked if I was at least 18. I've never worked in food either. It's just illegal to ask specific age and or birthdays.

If they have a liqour license, they should know that answer.

I guess maybe i'm confused....

There are some states that allow 18 yr olds to serve mixed drinks just not mix them. It all depends on the state laws.
