Job Title:  Bartender

Reports to:  Food & Beverage Manager

The Space

Step through the doors of The Ned NoMad and into a bygone era at Little Ned. This glamorous cocktail bar channels the opulence of the 1920s with plush, patterned booths reminiscent of a grand banking hall (a nod to the building's past life). Climb the stairs to the mezzanine level and settle into a cozy club chair, where you'll be rewarded with stunning views of the iconic Empire State Building. Expertly crafted classic cocktails take center stage here, alongside a menu of delectable bar bites. Indulge in decadent options like caviar and steak tartare or opt for something more casual like a juicy burger or a fresh salad. Little Ned promises an evening of sophisticated comfort and timeless elegance, perfect for a romantic rendezvous or a night out with friends.
