This job post is for our new location in Midtown East, Manhattan.
929 is a Cocktail + Vinyl Record Bar inspired by Canto-Pop & Mando-Pop, located in Midtown Manhattan, NY.
From craft cocktails and small bites to music and art display, 929’s goal is to create an immersive space for the celebration of Cantonese and Mandarin pop music from the 1980s and beyond.
