Description

Pinstripes is known for attracting exceptional people who are passionate about service. Our Venues are dynamic in layout and design; no two Pinstripes are the same.

Managers will be exposed to every workgroup (service, host, and bar), manage different zones of the venue, run private events, and see daily, weekly, and quarterly financials, so it is clear how to move the venue forward financially. From professional development classes to mentoring and guidance from your colleagues, we create well-rounded restaurateurs who are also savvy businesspeople.
