About
Nathan Porch is a career bartender with roots in the industry that go back to 1992. Over the decades, he has worked in virtually every bar environment imaginable—from no-frills dive bars and high-volume nightlife venues to upscale cocktail lounges, fine dining restaurants, private events, and everything in between. That breadth of experience has given him a deep understanding of not just drinks, but people, pacing, atmosphere, and what it takes to make a bar run smoothly.
Bartending has never been just a job for Nathan—it’s a craft and a constant through every chapter of his life. Even during a ten-year period when he stepped away from the industry full-time, he continued to bartend on weekends, staying connected to the bar, the rhythm of service, and the evolving culture of hospitality. That consistency speaks to a genuine love of the work and a commitment to the profession.
