The Conversation
The Restaurant Guys welcome Brian Miller to New Jersey! Brian is known in NYC for being a tiki pirate captain bartender. Now he’s heading up a bar in a 300 year old inn. Hear about what’s old, what’s new and what’s next!
The Inside Track
The Guys have had the privilege of enjoying Brian’s personality and beverages. They’ve become friends sharing their love of hospitality and showing that over the bar through conversation and great drinks.
“I think even as bartenders in general, every place that I've worked, we want to leave a legacy one day. I would hope some of my cocktails are in a book, but you want to take care of people first and foremost. It's not about me. It's about the guests and their experience and making sure that they have good cocktails,” Brian Miller 2024 on The Restaurant Guys Podcast
Bio
Brian Miller worked the bar scene in New York City for several years before being on Audrey Saunder’s opening staff at Pegu Club. He then worked for Phil Ward at Death & Company.

That same year, Brian was nominated for Spirited Award “International Bartender of the Year.” He was a partner and ran the bar program at The Polynesian, New York City.
