Background

About Phil Collins

With over 20 years in the hospitality industry, I bring a wealth of experience and a passion for creating exceptional guest experiences. For more than a decade, I've honed my craft behind the bar, mastering the art of mixology and developing a deep understanding of cocktails, wine, and beer. Since 2017 I’ve expanded my expertise into Leadership roles, where I've built teams, curated cocktail menus, wine lists, and back bar selections, created expansive education materials and implemented innovative systems to streamline operations. In addition to crafting exceptional drink programs, I've created comprehensive backend documents including cost worksheets, training materials, and SOPs, ensuring efficiency and consistency across all operations. I've also set up technology-based systems for inventory management and have programmed multiple variations of POS systems to optimize workflow and improve profitability. For the past three years, I’ve been fortunate to work with TableOne Hospitality, a global hospitality group that has opened over 20 venues in prestigious hotels such as Marriott, Thompson, Renaissance, and Romer. My role has included consulting for major hotels like Westin Las Vegas, The Knickerbocker in NYC, Park Central NY, M Social NY, Royal Lahaina Resort in Maui, and Alohilani Resort on Oahu. During this time, I've helped create and refine bar programs, developed training initiatives, and led the launch of new venues, all while ensuring that every detail aligns with the hotel's brand and vision. I pride myself on my ability to combine creativity with operational excellence, crafting unforgettable guest experiences while driving efficiency and profitability in fast-paced environments. Whether I’m designing a signature cocktail list, optimizing inventory processes, or implementing the latest technology in bar management, I’m always focused on one thing: delivering outstanding results.
