Born & raised in Southern UK, Tom brings with him to Vesper a decade of bartending and hospitality experience, having worked in major cities like London and Sydney. He was part of the team at the iconic American Bar at the Savoy (No. 1 WORLD’S 50 BEST BARS 2017), working directly with legendary names like Declan McGurk, Maxim Schulte, and of course, Federico Balzarini our current Bar Manager who Tom will take the helm from. His last position was at KOL, London (1-Michelin Star and No. 73 WORLD’S 50 BEST RESTAURANTS 2022 by Chef Santiago Lastra) where he was its Head Bartender – delighting guests with ever-changing cocktails that fuses unique Mexican spirits with seasonal British ingredients. Finally, after embarking on months-long trips in Mexico and the U.S. to learn more about local spirits, Tom is making his debut in Asia’s thriving cocktail scene and continues Vesper’s line of great bar managers since our opening in 2014.

“I have always been fascinated by Asia. I also love Bangkok’s vibrance and richness in culture, so when Vesper owners Choti & Debby reached me for an opportunity to lead their brainchild, I accepted the offer without hesitation. I am extremely excited to be part of this already-strong Vesper team and look forward to meeting all the friends around Asia. I am currently working on a series of new cocktails which will be launched soon, so please stay tuned and see you at the Bar!”
