A Day Behind the Bar: From Prep to Pour

Ever wondered what it takes to run a top-notch cocktail bar like Il Mulino Cocktail Bar? From early prep to the final pour, our bartenders work hard to make every guest experience unforgettable. Here’s a peek behind the scenes of a typical day at the bar.

Morning Prep: Setting the Stage

Before the first cocktail is served, our team preps the bar. This includes cleaning and organizing glassware, checking stock levels, and setting up garnishes and ingredients. Every detail counts to ensure service runs smoothly.

Crafting the Menu: Seasonal & Signature Drinks

Our bartenders carefully craft each cocktail, balancing flavors and experimenting with seasonal ingredients. Signature drinks are refined and tested so that every pour meets our high standards.

Service Time: Pouring the Experience

During peak hours, bartenders juggle multiple orders with speed, precision, and flair. It’s not just about making drinks—it’s about creating a welcoming atmosphere and delivering a memorable experience for every guest.

Post-Service: Closing & Restocking

After the last guest leaves, the bar team cleans, restocks, and prepares for the next day. This ensures the bar stays organized, efficient, and ready to serve the next round of patrons.

The Heart of Il Mulino

Being behind the bar is more than mixing drinks—it’s about passion, creativity, and connecting with our community. Every cocktail tells a story, and our team loves sharing that story with every guest who walks through our doors.
