Do additional research about the company and visit the restaurant/bar. Review the mission statement and explain how those values align with yours. You want the hiring manager to know that you are just not applying to get a job, but to the companies, you want to grow your career.

"I am impressed by how much your company has grown. Within the last three years, I noticed the organization had taken calculated risks expanding in the region. I've been a frequent customer of your flagship location and am excited to see you are opening one closer to my home. Your commitment to the community and an environment that values hard work and dedication is why I applied for the barback position."
