Hello, I am trying to compile a list of games that include bartending. It could be a main theme in the game or a fun side activity, either way is fine. Anything beside the VR game about bartending would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

So far I have:

VA-11 HALL-A
Red Strings Club

Both awesome cyberpunk games but my list ends there. :(

Late edit: To clarify, the main idea is that you get to be behind the bar.

Yes, this fits my idea, thanks!

Do you have to BE the bartender, or just interact with one?
If you just want to feel like you are at the bar, but not be the bartender, Pocket Kingdom has a pub.

Was thinking more along the lines of you being behind the bar. Thanks, I'll add clarification!
Edit.
Well, except it seems you can't edit the original post. Oh, well.

Back to the future for the NES is one of those notoriously bad games

Fnord beat me to it, but I assure you, it really wasn't. Because it was Back to the Future, I wanted so bad to like that game when I was a kid, but it was just awful.

You should also be able to play the C64 version of Tapper using an Emulator if you so desired.:)

Not exactly where you would see such thing, but apparently this used to be a thing.

There are no more servers that "feature" this, but it's certainly cool.

Yeah, steam direct doesn't have a great track record. Though the loot box simulator was actually worth the 0.99€. Great parody!

I played it for about 20 minutes when it was first bundled, from what I played it looked promising.

In VA-11 Hall-A: Cyberpunk Bartender Action you actually are the bartender.

The most money I've spend on crafting a badge. Cost me almost twice what the game did. No regrets though, amazing game!

Port of Call is a short free game - not bad - and in one section you have to mix a series of drinks for a guy before he'll talk to you. You can mix them properly or mess them up, and you'll get various responses. I think there may actually be achievements for getting them right or wrong, though I'm not sure of that now.

In South Park: The Fractured But Whole for the main quest you need to mix a drink for the DJ of a strip club which requires you to go behind the bar to find some of the ingredients

Does it have to be a Steam game?
Space Station 13 has a bartender position. You can mix drinks that burn people to dust, make them speak Sveedish, or both.

Tapper immediately comes to mind. It was an old arcade game.

I believe there's some minigames in at least one of the Warioware games.
If I recall correctly it's just sliding a glass down the counter.. Or maybe catching the sliding glasses, I dunno.
