Taylor Fahnestock

I am a skilled and passionate hospitality professional with a strong focus on bartending and beverage service. With extensive experience behind the bar, I excel at crafting high-quality cocktails, creating welcoming guest experiences, and maintaining a fast-paced, high-energy environment.

Known for creativity, efficiency, and strong knowledge of spirits, wine, and mixology techniques, I consistently deliver service that exceeds expectations. Whether working in upscale lounges, busy nightclubs, or neighborhood bars, I bring a professional and personable approach to every shift.

I am well-versed in inventory management, bar setup and breakdown, POS systems, and adhering to health and safety standards. In addition to technical skills, I thrive on connecting with guests, reading the room, and creating a lively, enjoyable atmosphere that keeps patrons coming back.

With a commitment to teamwork, continuous learning, and top-tier service, I represent the best of what modern bartending can be.

20+ years of restaurant experience both front and back of house. I started my career with a love of baking and took that through culinary school and into restaurant management. I have served, bartended, cooked, baked, managed and done everything else in the industry.

I have a Master's in organizational leadership which helps me see where there are missed areas of opportunity and focus on better understanding of needs.
