Julia & Chris Tunstall

We’re Chris and Julia Tunstall, a husband-and-wife team who love the service industry and are dedicated to treating all of our customers like they are our family. Inspired by Chris’ decade of experience as a bartender and bar manager, we created A Bar Above as a bar education site in 2013, growing over the years to add online training, a podcast, and a unique line of premium barware designed entirely by us. We’re dedicated to growing a team of people in Carlsbad, California who love craft cocktails and the beverage/service industry as much as we do! Together, we continue to develop and personally test our custom line of bar tools so we can bring the best barware to our customers. In addition, we are looking to expand our mixology course offerings in 2022.
