Barman — Nando
Where Italian nostalgia meets real bar craft
Nando isn't just another restaurant — it's Nonna's kitchen, brought to life in Wilrijk, Antwerp. Retro details, honest Italian comfort food, and a room that feels like family. We're looking for a Barman to own our bar: someone who mixes with precision, keeps the bar running like clockwork during service, and makes every guest feel like they've pulled up a stool at Nonna's counter.
What you'll do
- Prepare and serve drinks — cocktails, wine, coffee, aperitivo classics — accurately and efficiently
- Welcome guests at the bar and set the tone for their evening
- Keep the bar stocked, clean, and ready before service hits
- Manage the pace of orders during busy periods without losing quality or friendliness
- Coordinate with the floor team so drinks and food orders stay in sync
- Handle guest requests and resolve minor issues with a calm, professional touch
What you bring
- Experience as a barman/bartender in hospitality
- Solid knowledge of classic cocktails, wine, and Italian aperitivo culture
- Composure under pressure — busy nights don't rattle you
- Organized, hands-on, hygiene- and detail-conscious
- English (required), basic Dutch (required); Italian or French is a real plus
What's in it for you
- Full-time, 38h contract
- €15.00–€18.00 brutto/hour, negotiable based on experience
- Meal vouchers, holiday pay, and a 13th month
- Bike allowance and uniform provided
- Real ownership of the bar from day one
- Room to grow within a restaurant group that's expanding
Restaurant is open 7/7, with 2 days off per week.
