Caffe Corretto: Bartender

About Us:

We are a morning-to-midnight “double f” Caffe for the Eternal City that Never Sleeps. We bring the best of Rome to New York’s famed East Village, with a focus on baked good (pastries and pizza al taglio) during the mornings and afternoons and a thoughtful menu of composed dishes (meats and cheeses, soups and salads, pastas, braised meats, and grilled fish) in the evenings. Our menu features Roman classics alongside a variety of items that change seasonally, including gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan options. We proudly marry New York-style hospitality with Roman cooking, alongside excellent coffees, top-notch wines and beers, and creative cocktails. We are looking for a front-of-house team to manage breakfast, lunch, and dinner service, working closely with us to delight our guests and establish a cozy new landmark in our neighborhood.
