Tom Mountjoy

Tom hails from the deep south of New Zealand where time spent climbing walls at the Captain Cook Tavern in Dunedin gave him the idea to move to the working side of bars.
After time in London and Oslo working in various bars Tom moved to the Tonga Bar where he's been serving up thirsty Bergensers for the past four years.
The key to Tom's bartending is to ensure knowledge, skills and etiquette are always kept top priority when preparing, mixing and serving cocktails. Fresh ingredients along with an open mind for new knowledge and ideas is something you'll always find up at Tonga Bar.
Don't be afraid to ask Tom questions about his trade, his style, equipment or ingredients, it may just help you impress your friends during your next party!.

After time in Lisboa, Cape Verde and Aiya Napa working in various bars Pedro moved to freezing Bergen.
Although he thinks Norway is cold and that everything cost to much money, he always has a smile on his face
His favorite drink to make is the perfect Mojito, and when he drinks... it's all about Cucumber Martinis!!!
