BRIAN WELLS BAR TENDER @ CLUB KRAVE




          Chicago land native, Brian Wells, began his bartending career at the young age of twenty. He was a barback at one of the area's trendiest nightclubs.  Shortly after turning twenty-one, Brian learned the skill of tending bar and there was no looking back. eeHH

                In  2010, Brian helped start a non-profit organization that helped to benefit LGBT Veterans of the US Armed Forces. The organization focused on helping LGBT veterans, who were wrongfully discharged, collect the Military benefits they were owed. The non-profit also fought for the repeal of the “Don’t ask, don’t tell” policy. The organization found great success after holding several, high profile events to raise money for the cause.

                After living in the Boystown neighborhood of Chicago for four years and attending Harrington College of Design, Brian began consulting on the design of several bars, nightclubs, and restaurants in Indiana, Chicago, Las Vegas, and Florida.

                Brian’s love for the business, and skill behind the bar,  has set the pace for a successful career in the service industry. After several years of bar tending and managing in some of the area’s premier nightclubs and bars, he found a home at Club Krave in March of 2011. With high hopes of owning a bar of his own one day, “last call” for Brian doesn’t seem to be coming anytime soon.
