Be At One Milton Keynes named Best Bar of the Year in brand’s national challenge
The Milton Keynes branch has been named Best Bar of the Year at Be At One's annual Bartender Challenge, beating bars from across the UK to secure the title.
The award was announced during the brand's national final, held at Be At One Regent Street, where the very best bartending talent from across Be At One gathered to celebrate excellence in hospitality.
Led by General Manager Sam Milliner, Be At One Milton Keynes was celebrated for its outstanding performance, team culture and commitment to delivering exceptional guest experiences throughout the year.
The Milton Keynes team had even more reason to celebrate, with bartender Joey receiving the inaugural Lifetime Legend Award, which recognises a team member who has made an exceptional long-term contribution to Be At One and its culture.


Sam Milliner, General Manager, said: “Words can’t describe how proud I am of my team for winning the award this year, and as each day goes on, I continue to be impressed and lucky to work alongside them. And of course, let's not forget about our very own Joey winning the Lifetime Legend Award, never has someone won a more accurate title!”
Gemma Gallon, Senior Brand Training Manager at Be At One, said: “Winning Best Bar of the Year is an incredible achievement and a reflection of the dedication, passion and hard work shown by the entire team at Be At One Milton Keynes.
“Walking into Be At One Milton Keynes feels like walking into a proper house party. You’re welcomed straight into the family, and every guest gets looked after and made to feel part of the fun. That connection between the team and their guests is something special and gives people a reason to keep coming back.”
The award recognises Be At One Milton Keynes as one of the leading venues within the national cocktail bar brand.
