Piyapat “Spike” Pholnai
Bartender, Bar Scofflaws

Hails from Nonthaburi, this young and aspiring bartender with only a few years of experience under his belt, found his passion for cocktails and bartending at his friend’s wedding. Spike looked on in awe at the barmen’s crisp and smart uniform, charming demeanor and sharp skills to produce high quality drinks. So, after earning a degree in hotel and tourism management, it became clear that he wanted to pursue a career in the cocktail industry. He landed the first job in the scene at Japanese Highball Bar 1923 where he spent almost a year building on his basic bartending skills, before taking his current position to perfect his spirit forward cocktail style.

If not sipping on an Americano, his most favorite drink, in a bar, Spike is always on the hunt for new experiences and ways to enhance his presentation skills with bartender competitions in Thailand and beyond.
