Where are you from?


A farm outside a little town called Marlow

Where do you/have you worked?


General Manager at  Milk & Honey, owner of BYOC and previously at Zenna Bar

Favorite Bars?


Home House, Opium and Milk and Honey of course

 

How do you like your Martini?


I like a Tanqueray ten martini, neither shaken nor stirred, without a garnish. Yeah, I just like gin, doesn’t even have to be in a nice cup. But shaken with a twist also does the trick.

Favourite Drink?


Martell Cordon Bleu preferably with a cigar.

Bad ass barman/Rock n Roll moment?


Serving drinks to MADNESS just before they locked Calvin Harris in a porta-loo and start rocking it for not signing one of their kids t-shirts before drinking with Suggs into the wee hours of the night.

Ever done it on a bar?


Around, under, near, but never on….

What's next for you?


Probably another martini….

Best/worst chat up lines you've heard at a bar?


The best and worst chat up line I’ve ever heard was this guy who went up to a girl and the first thing he said was “do you want have sex with me?”, she turned him down and I asked him why he said it. Apparently 1 in 20 girls will say yes if you say it confidently enough. I then watched him say it to another 6/7 girls throughout the night, the last one left with him a few minutes later.

What did you want to be as a kid?


I didn’t really, I was quite unimaginative, but I think rich was in there somewhere.

Tell us a secret or something we don't know?


I happen to be awesome at scrabble.

If you were to make a barchick cocktail, what would you put in it?


Simple elegant but badass at the sametime… Clover Club laced with absinthe
