With Behind Bars, Ty Wenzel offers a revealing account of her ten years as a bartendress slinging drinks at a hip Lower East Side bar in New York City.



Wenzel, now thirty-six, has just thrown in the towel after a decade at Marion's Continental Restaurant and lounge--a gig that was supposed to be a temporary refuge after corporate burnout, but instead took over her life. Honest, clever, and scathingly funny, this memoir at once offers outrageous tales, the dirty secrets of the trade, a wonderful personal story, and inspired commentary on bar culture and the human condition. Unsparingly candid, these stories of life behind the bar cover sex, money, celebrities, and more:

  • The seven rules to inspire a strong, prompt drink (hint: a $1 tip does not cover five drinks)
  • What the Floating $20 is between bartenders
  • The tricks bartenders play to get you to stay on the stool
  • Why bartenders can't seem to save money and get out of the life
  • How pink drinks like the Cosmo are ruining civilization.
