Bar services

 

Product training

All the bar services team come together at least once every month to learn what new products are on the market. During this time staff learn how the new drinks should be served/ in what glass it should come in and also what, if any mixers go with each drink. We even get to try these new products – so you can imagine how excited we all are to attend these training days!!!

 

Fast track team

Our fast track team have weekly training sessions to keep on top of our ever growing industry. These staff are taught serving techniques as when they are working they will be expected to serve 9 customers every minute – and on any one shift 7,020 customers. These staff work on a large team half pour drinks, - while the other serve the customer. In any one day a staggering 35,100 customers will pass through our “SUPER BAR”

 

Cocktails

There are over 5,000 different cocktails and combination of drinks which make up the perfect cocktail. Now not only do you have the traditional ones such as Harvey Wall Banger/ Black Russian/ Screwdriver, but now you have the more exotic ones like Sex on the beach/ slippery nipple/ tip top. Our staff are trained to know what is in them and how to serve them efficiently at a cocktail bar.

 

Training and Standards

In order that we all from Anyone Waiting Company maintain the same standards we have a staff booklet which inform staff what they should be saying and doing whilst at work. This is to ensure that the customer always gets the same response from all the staff. This step by step guide helps the staff to serve customers to the best of their ability.

 

The Extra Mile

Staff will go that little bit further in order to give the customer excellent service. They do this by getting to the counter before the customer does, being fast and working as a team to serve the round, offer an alternative drink – if the one ordered isn’t available. If it’s a quiet shift or a large round then the staff often ask if they would like their drinks carried back to their tables etc..

 

Anything Else

Not only do we serve the customer – but try and remember their drinks so the next time they come to the counter we should be able to give them a top class service. Also before they pay for their drinks we always ask “anything else” just in case they have forgotten a drink for themselves etc…

 

Self or Team Work

Our staff are now trained to either work by themselves or as part of a team – they do this by pairing up on any one shift and then when a order is placed one staff gets the drinks while the other member of staff tills in the order and takes the money for the drinks and returns the change. As the change is being given back the last of the drink order is being delivered to them.

 

Table Service

We even offer a table service where staff take orders at tables and deliver drinks to the customers and then add the price onto a table tab. All staff must have a good understanding and knowledge of what drinks are on offer and available as they are away from the bar area at this time. Each member of staff must also be able to offer drinks or products etc… that bests suits the customer needed or food that they are having, therefore a confident and experience is needed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Food units and catering

 

Doughnuts and crepes

Dinky doughnuts or hot stick crepes made in front of your eyes – fresh and piping hot – will attract everyone and with such fillings such as banana , strawberry p[each chocolate cream marshmallow etc …… has a taste for everyone !

 

Coffee and teas

Times have changed and now you cant have just a coffee or tea …. Now it’s a latte / filter / mocha / cappacino / expresso / or a fruit or herbal tea. And not only that you have to decide if you want it de caff or full caff . and light skinny or full milk and then if that isn’t enough you have the option of a shot in it ( vanilla caramel toffee hazelnut cinnamon ) so all in all it’s a skinny de caff regular latte with a almond shot please – waw ! that all takes time and training to make sure you present the drink the correct way and the milk is heated to the correct temperature – but boy have we mastered it !

 

Pick n mix
Soft drinks and jelly sweets suit everyone of all ages, these multi coloured stalls attract everyone who are handed a bag and help themselves to the delicious sweets and confectioneries from around the world.

Fun zone

Laser Parties and U.V Parties

Ideal for all ages – from a toddler to teenager and up to adults – these lasers (freen) project pictures and shapes not only on walls but in thin air across the room. These lights can be used for outdoor events (however these are not ideal for large areas etc…)

Please note in order for these lights to operate correctly we need to use a smoke machine so lights can bounce off the white smoke (non toxic) and comes in a wide variety of smells – we use strawberry flavour. This does not effect any person with asthma etc…

 

Foam Parties and Bubbles

Give your guests a twist – by covering them in foam!!!! We used to do a lot of children’s birthday parties with foam – but now adults and believe it or not O.A.Ps now want to use this service. Its different, its unique and its fun. You do get a bit wet, but it does not damage the venue (e.g carpet etc… - in fact it cleans your carpet!) or your clothes. An extra option is to have your room filled with bubbles – which the lights makes your party have the Aww! Factor.
