Liquor Lab Consultancy

Liquor Lab Consultancy I started out behind the bar and quickly realised hospitality was more than just a job for me. Welcome to the Liquor Lab.

Over the years I’ve worked my way through management, events, training and senior leadership roles across busy nightlife and premium venues. The one place for all your event services, cocktail parties, master classes, consultancy, DJ services and equipment hire

Weekend hen party cocktail masterclass 🍸💃

Not your average “stand and shake” session… this was full-on show mode. Music up, laughs flowing, a bit of chaos (the good kind), and four cocktails smashed out along the way 🔥

It’s never really about the drinks, it’s about the energy in the room. Getting everyone involved, having a laugh, and making it a proper experience the bride-to-be won’t forget anytime soon.
Safe to say… she won't 😅👏

Today is Malbec World Day.

Most venues will acknowledge it.
Few will actually monetise it.

This is the difference between running a bar and operating a business.

A simple awareness day like this should be doing three things:
Driving footfall (give people a reason to come in)
Increasing spend per head (pairing + upselling)
Creating staff engagement (clear, easy-to-sell focus)

The play? Keep it simple and commercial:
• One strong Malbec by the glass at an accessible price
• One premium option for trade-up
• One food pairing your team can confidently recommend

No overcomplication. No overthinking. Just ex*****on.

Because the venues that win aren’t always the busiest…
They’re the ones that maximise every opportunity in front of them.

Are you using days like this to their full potential, or just posting about them?

It’s National Cocktail Day 🍸

Which, let’s be honest, is basically a public service announcement for the hospitality industry.

For me, cocktails have never just been about the drink.

It’s the theatre behind the bar.
The interaction with the guest.
The confidence of the person making it.

You can give someone the same ingredients, but it’s the way it’s made and delivered that turns it into an experience.

That’s what people remember.

So whether it’s a classic done properly or something a bit more creative, today’s the perfect excuse to enjoy one.

Apparently it’s National Puppy Day today 🐶

If hospitality teams were dogs, what would they be?

🐕 The Labrador – always happy, loves people, never stops moving
🐕 The Border Collie – running the floor like a pro, knows everything that’s going on
🐕 The French Bulldog – great personality, a bit stubborn, still everyone’s favourite
🐕 The Chihuahua – small but somehow running the whole place

Every great venue has a mix, and when it works, it really works.
Because at the end of the day, hospitality is all about energy, personality, and making people feel welcome.

First day of spring 🌸🍸

Longer days, lighter evenings, and the perfect excuse for something fresh behind the bar.

Today’s choice: The Gin Daisy

A proper classic that goes all the way back to the 1800s, light, refreshing, and exactly what you want as we move into spring.

Think of it as a grown-up lemonade with a bit of personality,
Gin, citrus, a touch of sweetness, and a splash of soda to bring it to life.

It’s one of those drinks that reminds you what hospitality is all about, simple ingredients, balanced properly, served with a bit of energy… and suddenly you’ve got a moment.

Funny thing is, cocktails like this are where a lot of modern classics came from, margaritas, sidecars, all built on that same balance of sweet, sour, and spirit.

Spring’s here, so it’s time to start thinking lighter, brighter, and a bit more refreshing.

So here’s the question…
What’s your go-to spring cocktail?

Apparently it’s Let’s Laugh Day today 😄

In hospitality, that’s not just a nice idea, it’s part of the experience.

We talk a lot about standards, service, and operations, but what guests often remember most is how they felt.

The best teams don’t just deliver great service, they create moments.

A bit of personality behind the bar.
A genuine interaction.
A team that brings energy to the room.

That’s what builds atmosphere.
That’s what keeps people coming back.

Because guests don’t remember every detail, but they always remember how a place made them feel.

Curious to hear from others in the industry
What’s something small your team does that makes a big difference to the guest experience?

Exciting times working alongside Exclusive Events Ltd at The Three Arches, Sheffield.

From a consultancy perspective, it’s been great to support a venue that’s fully committed to building a diverse and commercially strong events programme, from high-energy comedy concepts like Gong of Steel, to premium tribute experiences and live entertainment that genuinely drives footfall.

What stands out is the willingness to innovate. Too many venues stick to “what’s always worked,” but here we’re focused on creating experiences that give customers a reason to choose this venue over any other in the city, and crucially, to come back.

The combination of strong branding, clear event positioning, and consistent delivery is already showing real potential. There’s a solid foundation here to build something that not only fills rooms, but builds a reputation.

Looking forward to seeing these events continue to grow and to playing a part in shaping what’s next.

If you’re in Sheffield and haven’t checked out what’s coming up at The Three Arches yet, now’s the time.
