Derek Weiss
Bar Manager
Originally from Pennsylvania, Bar Manager Derek Weiss moved to Austin in 2013 after spending many years in Philadelphia.
Weiss's experience in the industry is eclectic - he got his start bartending at the bowling alley-adjacent Sinkhole Saloon & Grill in Palmyra, Pennsylvania. He continued to hone his experience at a variety of establishments including an improv comedy club in Miami, Florida, and a small bar set in the mountains of Mammoth Lakes, California. Upon arriving in Austin, Weiss worked at the former cocktail bar, Eastside Showroom, before joining the team at Péché.
