About Bar & Beverage Consultancy
Why We Do This
A bar is more than a spot for drinks. It’s where folks come to unwind, and we believe real hospitality is about making sure everyone walks away happier than when they arrived. Our biggest high? Hearing someone say, “Kya mast time tha yaar” (What a great time, buddy).
Experience You Can Taste
We’ve been around for over 25 years, from flair bartending stages to international competitions. Those years taught us what clicks in a bar and, honestly, what bombs. Now, we’re here to help your place stand out, not just fit in.
How We Can Help
- Staff Mixology Training: We train teams to do more than just pour. From product knowledge to those small touches that make guests feel special, we make sure your staff is ready for anything.
- Cocktail Menu Development: Your menu should have your vibe. We help you tell your story through unique recipes, fresh flavours, and a signature drink creation process that gets people talking.
- Bar Layout Optimization: The right setup makes life easier for your team and keeps the energy up. We’ll help design for speed, comfort, and that perfect bartender flow.
- Beverage Brand Advocacy: Got a beverage brand? We know how to get it noticed, through workshops, content, or slotting it right into our training sessions.

We’re all about sharing what we know. Nothing beats seeing someone you’ve trained find their groove and succeed. That’s what keeps us going.

My Story
Started off in Bombay, late 90s, just a steward hustling for some cash. Never planned to stick around, but turns out, I’m hooked on hospitality. Switched to bartending, felt like performing on stage. Not easy, but soon the bar felt like home. Got obsessed with flair bartending, practiced non-stop, even won the first national flair title in 2003. Now, I run my own academy, and honestly, I just want to pass on what I’ve learnt.
