Thank you for your interest in joining the service team at O+O Pizza!

We are seeking an experienced, talented, hospitality-driven bartender to join our team as we head into the warmer months ahead.

O+O Pizza is an independently owned restaurant in Webster Groves serving handmade pastas, pizzas, and a wide array of Italian starters and entrees. Open for dinner 7 nights a week, our menu is entirely from scratch, changes often, and features the best of local and imported ingredients we can find. We also offer an extensive bar program that reflects the ethos of our kitchen, with Italian wines, house-made cocktails, a diverse selection of aperitifs, amari, and other Italian spirits, plus exciting N/A options.

While we are seeking bartenders with strong experience working in full-service, from-scratch restaurants, we are primarily seeking individuals who possess the personality, confidence, and maturity required to provide exceptional hospitality to our guests. Going out of our way to make our guests feel good is as important to us as serving excellent food. Applicants should enjoy interacting with the public and wish to provide a level of care as if they were entertaining guests in their own home. Our local following has come to expect a level of hospitality that we will never compromise.

Given the nature of our beverage program, we are seeking bartenders with experience building both craft and classic cocktails, and ideally seek those with a background and interest in cocktail recipe development. Our bartending team is given great creative leeway in determining the direction of our bar, and work as a team to expand our offerings seasonally. Bartenders with a passion for our industry who possess the desire to continue developing their knowledge of wine (particularly Italian wines), spirits, cocktails, and beer will thrive in this position.

Responsibilities for bartenders at O+O Pizza include:

• Arriving before service to set up bar and prep necessary checklist items
• Attending daily line-up meetings for food, beverage, and service updates
• Possessing comprehensive knowledge of menus at all times
• Providing exceptional service and hospitality at all times
• Either serving our guests or working "the wheel" to prepare drinks for dining room
• Keeping bar area tidy and organized throughout service
• Delegating tasks to barback when needed

This is a nighttime-only position that can either be part-time or full-time. Hours for this position will generally be between 2:00 p.m. and 10:30 p.m.

Have any questions? Please reach out to our General Manager, Haley Christinidis: Email

We look forward to meeting you,

Our Core Values

Heartfelt hospitality paired with attentive service

Going out of our way to make our guests feel good is as important to us as serving excellent food. Dining at our restaurant should evoke the excitement of going out, combined with the comfort of coming home. Our dedication to hospitality will create loyal and vocal fans. Our service will ensure our guests want for nothing. Our staff will use a little quick thinking, a little humor, and a lot of heart to make our guests’ experiences unforgettable.

Consistently delivering quality at a value

We will consistently offer the highest levels of quality at a great value. A concerted effort to provide the highest quality experience at the best possible prices will create loyalty and ensure longevity. Our menus, both food and beverage, will be thoughtfully prepared using the best possible products. Every time we serve an item to our guest we want that item to make a lasting, positive impression. Everything is intentional. No aspect of the experience is an afterthought.

Creating a place where people want to work

We all spend a lot of time at work. Our jobs, in many cases, are part of our identity. We believe in creating a culture where people can take pride in what they do and where they work. We will treat people fairly and with respect and we expect the same in return. As with creating a culture of hospitality towards our guests, it takes all of us to create a culture of hospitality towards one another.

Contributing to our community through philanthropy

We believe that by extending our hospitality to our community, we will make our own business stronger. We encourage our employees to become involved in their communities and we support their charitable causes. In addition to the individual efforts by our staff, The Clover & the Bee has dedicated time and resources to supporting charities related to congenital heart disease. Our goal is to help leave the world a better place, and when we work to create positive change in our communities, we take a tiny step closer to achieving that goal. We are proud to partner with the Mighty Oakes Heart Foundation, the Ollie Hinkle Heart Foundation, the Children's Heart Foundation, and Webster Groves schools and educational programs.
