Life without them would be super hard.” ~ Divyesh Chauhan, Co-Founder of JungleBird KL, a rum-centric bar. They are the back bone, just like a Kitchen Porter Dishwasher is in a kitchen. They do the jobs that require strength, foresight precision and willingness to push things forward. “They are the work horses behind the operation. Here is how bar operators described barbacks: Every bartender has to work as a barback before they qualify to serve drinks. A barback is a bartender’s assistant helping to ensure smooth work flow at the bar so that drinks can be rolled out quickly, forming a team that gives the best experience to the guests.Ī barback’s role includes waiting tables, cleaning glasses, preparing ingredients and garnishes, refilling ice, topping up stocks and, sometimes, even to make sure of the bartender’s safety. A barback is essentially someone who “backs-up” or supports the bar and bartender(s). Barbacks are often mistaken for bartenders by the consumers, simply because both are working at the bar.
