Bar codex Chris Edwardes

A bartender is a philosopher, a shrink, a doctor, a comedian and a marriage guidance counsellor.

After all these years behind the bar I still have a great time doing it.

As long as people are friendly and polite, I don't care how they look.

Alcohol is my world, I love everything about it.

I can't remember my first cocktail.

If I won a billion-dollar lottery tomorrow, I would definitely open a distillery.

Some people are born famous, others have to work incredibly hard to achieve it.

I treat my bartenders like my family, so they never argue with me.

If I become a superhero tomorrow, call me “Johnnie Cocktail” please.

Chatting with girls and all other children's games pass by, when you understand that you can make a career behind the bar.

The main pleasure of managing your own bar is that it's exactly your vision and your choice. What else can you ∫want?

I've been working in the industry since I was 17 years old and can't imagine doing anything else

My wife, my life and my punch bag make me strong.
