Job Description
In addition to shucking you will be prepping and guest facing for the entire shift. On slower nights you will run food, take orders and generally help out the bartender on duty. This is 4day/wk job. Usually Monday, Tuesday and Wednesdays off but likely to change due to requests off from other employees. You will always have two days off in a row. Hours are 2-10pm. And on weekends 2-11pm. This is not your average kitchen job; we believe that a bar or restaurant is an organism, and every person - from the host to the shucker, plays a critical role; because of this, we split tips EQUALLY between all hourly employees, front + back of house. That means everyone makes good money. Pay plus tips averages around $30-$40 per hour; our pay structure promotes a profoundly positive team environment. We also offer health, dental and vision insurance subsidies after three months for full time employees, dining discounts, regular wine and spirits training and free parking. Serious inquiries only, please. About Traveling Mercies Traveling Mercies is a cocktail, wine and oyster bar from James Beard Award-winning chef Caroline Glover. Our menu muses raw bar favorites like oysters and shrimp cocktails alongside comfort food classics like wedge salads and rice pudding. The drinks side features refined, intentional and occasionally whimsical cocktails, with a focus on the breadth and versatility of rum and a deep rolodex of lesser-known classics. Wines skew coastally influenced, boasting acid and salinity to complement the seafood-centric menu. Traveling Mercies was a semifinalist for the James Beard Foundation's Best New Bar Award in 2024, and was also named one of Esquire Magazine's 2024 Best Bars in America.
