Our story

A genuine demand for higher standards in training and education

The Dublin Bar Academy was set up in 2012 to give young and aspiring bartenders the training they need to step behind any bar in the world with confidence.

Richard Linden

Leaving his native Sweden, Richard has travelled the world in pursuit of bar and hospitality expertise. From the UK, where he spent five years in the Chewton Glen five star resort that is consistently voted in the top hotels in the world, to Thailand where he worked as the Head Instructor at the European Bartender School. On these shores, Richard trained for three years under our celebrity hotelier Francis Brennan at The Park Hotel Kenmare, as well as being restaurant and bar manager at the Michelin Star Cliff House Hotel.

Ronan Rogerson

When he is not serving up tequila wisdom, Ronan can be found in Drury Building, a popular Dublin haunt that he owns and runs. In his past life Ronan set up the market leading events company All Bar None Events, worked as a Brand Ambassador for Patron Tequila, was the on-­trade trainer for Brinkman Beverages and was bar manager at The Morgan Hotel, one of the first internationally awarded cocktail bars in Ireland.

Fabio

Fabio, originally from Italy, has spent almost a decade working in top tier cocktail bars in Dublin, Madrid and Rome, curating a great knowledge of the hospitality industry.

Prior to joining the team to establish Dublin Bar Academy, he worked as a professional filmmaker in Italy while finishing his studies in digital business development.

When the dastardly COVID struck he refocused our efforts online which kept us alive. As the project manager, his goal is to keep Dublin Bar Academy at the forefront of drink education.
