Location: Camp Lucy Resort – Dripping Springs, TX
Employment Type: Full-Time 


About Tillie’s

Housed in a 19th-century Vietnamese town hall reborn under Texas skies, Tillie’s isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a crossroads of global flavors and Hill Country soul. Here, bourbon meets lemongrass, and every cocktail is a passport stamp. Our bar? A stage where local honey, Texan whiskey, and stories from far-off spice markets collide.


Your Role: Mixologist of Memories

As our Bartender, you’re not just pouring drinks—you’re crafting liquid narratives. Imagine shaking a cocktail that tastes like a Hill Country sunset or stirring a margarita that whispers of Vietnamese market adventures. Your shaker is your paintbrush, and every glass is a canvas for connection.

This is where craft meets theater, and guests leave with a story in their hands.


What You’ll Create

  • Signature moments: Invent cocktails that blend Camp Lucy’s ethos (think: prickly pear meets cardamom, or smoked mescal with Texas grapefruit).
  • Guest alchemy: Read a patron’s mood and mix a “Midsummer Night’s Dream” (lavender gin fizz) or a “Hill Country Revival” (jalapeño-infused bourbon smash).
  • Bar as sanctuary: Keep your station gleaming like a jewel box—organized, inviting, and ready for Instagram fame.
  • Collaborative magic: Partner with chefs to pair drinks with dishes (e.g., a tamarind margarita to dance with chili-lime shrimp).

Who You Are

  • A cocktail storyteller with 2+ years in craft bars, speakeasies, or venues where ice is carved, not cubed.
  • Equal parts scientist and poet—you geek out over fat-washing techniques and the way a rosemary sprig can elevate a guest’s night.
  • A hospitality ninja: Calm during a 50-cover rush, yet attentive enough to remember a regular’s “usual” (extra lime, no straw).
  • TABC-certified guardian: You mix joy responsibly, ensuring every sip is safe and memorable.

Why You’ll Love It Here

  • Compensation: $13/hour + tips (our guests tip like they’re thanking a wizard).
  • Perks with Panache:
    • Sip the magic: Discounts on stays at our cottages and meals at Tillie’s (yes, that includes your off-duty espresso martinis).
    • Grow your craft: Mentorship from mixology maestros and a path to Beverage Director for those who dream in bitters.
    • Care for you: Health/dental/vision for full-timers, PTO to recharge under the Texas stars.
    • Team vibes: Family meals where staff debates “best taco pairings” as passionately as Michelin chefs.
