An efficient bar setup is designed to help the bartender work quickly and effectively, reducing the time it takes to prepare and serve drinks.
The "well" area, or speed rail, typically contains commonly used liquors and mixers for quick access, not specialty liqueurs or rare spirits.
Garnishes should be stored in a closed container in the refrigerator to keep them fresh and prevent contamination.
Having a standardized place for bar tools ensures that bartenders can quickly find and use them, improving efficiency and consistency in drink preparation.
Storing glassware upside down on a clean mat or shelf keeps the inside of the glasses clean and ready for use while also making them easily accessible to the bartender.
