Hello, I'm Argan.

French bartender blending creativity and empathy to turn cocktails into unforgettable moments

I'm a craft-oriented bartender who loves connecting with people and creating unique cocktail experiences. While I can be fast and efficient in high-volume environments, what I truly enjoy is taking the time to craft something memorable, tailored to the guest, and make them feel at ease. I’ve worked both in lively pubs and in bistronomic settings where I developed cocktail menus from scratch. In just one year, I went from a pub bartender to designing a successful cocktail menu in a venue where nobody believed in cocktails at first. That transformation came from one thing: an unstoppable drive to learn and grow. Whether it’s perfecting a classic, inventing new recipes on the spot, or just listening to a guest’s story while shaking their drink, I thrive in cozy, festive atmospheres and collaborative teams. I believe in healthy competition, mutual support, and always pushing each other to do better. What sets me apart isn’t experience—yet—but mindset. I’m ready to question everything I think I know, destroy and rebuild my approach as many times as needed, just to become the best bartender I can be. My goal is to gain enough knowledge and perspective to eventually create bars of my own that bring people together and make them feel at home. I speak French (native), English (C1), and I’m currently learning Norwegian. I feel most alive in international, dynamic environments—where every shift is a new story.
