Top Seven Bartender Food Safety Tips Typically, we all hope that our wait-staff are aware of food safety tips that they should follow, i.e., washing hands after using the bathroom, not putting their thumb into our food, etc. But, do you know what bartenders should do to protect the public health? Check out these seven tips and make sure that the bartender is following these rules.
1. Each and every bartender should possess a food handler’s card with a valid expiration date. 2. Allergy warnings for mixed drinks and liquors should be displayed (for example, the White Monkey at a New York bar has vermouth and almond syrup). 3. The must wash, rinse and sanitize all tools used in the bar in the same manner as any restaurant. They should check refrigerator gaskets, shelves and fan guards for mold. 4. Bartenders should wash their hands often, and it is best if there is a sink behind the bar. 5. They must wash and sanitize the ice container regularly. Keep it covered and use only plastic scoops. 6. Regularly clean the soda gun and its holder. 7. Pests thrive in food areas. Taking garbage out frequently and keeping garbage areas clean will keep the insects and rodents away.
