About Us

KABIN draws its inspiration from Nordic culture, a world where design is natural, connection is genuine, and the best moments are the simplest ones. It’s an elevated cocktail bar built on those same values : thoughtful, down-to-earth, and welcoming to everyone who walks through the door.

It’s a place where the lights are soft, the music feels right, and every seat has a story waiting to happen. Some guests come to unwind quietly with a cocktail in hand; others arrive with friends and fill the room with energy. Either way, everyone leaves feeling a little lighter, a little more connected.

KABIN was created for people who appreciate care and craft in what they drink, in who they meet, and in how they’re treated. It’s a neighborhood bar with a global sensibility, designed to make you feel at home no matter where you’re from.

The Server represents KABIN with the highest levels of hospitality, professionalism, and sanitation safety. The Server must interact with restaurant guests, team members, and management in a professional and collaborative manner to create an exemplary and safe dining experience. The Server provides food and drinks to guests in an efficient, timely, and friendly manner.
