Monique M. says, "Ashley and Tony from The Bar Socialites were nothing but amazing. From day one during our consultation Ashley's(The Owner) energy was vibrant and we clicked instantly. Our transactions were smooth and simple. I would text her all day with different questions and she responded immediately. Never snappy or annoyed with all my unknown knowledge of certain alcohol. I appreciated her professionalism but, still fun and down to earth. The Bartender she sent for the night was Tony. He was live, upbeat, entertaining and one of the best Bartenders I've encountered in a long time. There was never a empty cup on the tables he kep us niceeee lol. And also well hydrated by pushing water as well. The drinks were delicious and were just like the pictures from their page. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for sure and well deserved. I will definitely be hiring them again for future events. You should too you won't be disappointed."See more

GV R. says, "We hired Mario from Majestic Mix as the bartender for our wedding at our own property, GV Ranch in Menifee, CA. He was the first bartender we contacted. Everyone seems to have a friend or a friend of a friend who bartends, but after our initial phone call, we had the best impression and vibe from Mario right from the start. He was open and responsive, making communication easy throughout the planning process and our phone calls. Mario applied no pressure to choose his services but carried an assuring confidence in what he could deliver. After interviewing a few others, we ultimately circled back and chose Mario. He provided a detailed list tailored to our guest count of 150 and arrived with an assisting bartender to ensure efficient service. Despite our lively crowd, Mario managed the bar smoothly. He crafted signature “his and hers” drinks that were awesome. I can personally vouch for the smoked old fashioned with bourbon 😮‍💨. Even when we ran out of tequila, he quickly adapted by creating alternative drinks with the remaining supplies. For some reason, the guests loved the tequila first 🤔. Our guests loved him, and so did we. We ended up extending his service by three more hours, keeping Mario around until 1 a.m. Mario was professional, clean, and blended seamlessly into our family environment. His fluency in both English and Spanish made all our guests feel comfortable. He maintained a friendly and approachable demeanor, ensuring everyone enjoyed their experience. We know bartenders can sometimes come off as stiff or uptight, but Mario was the opposite: warm, engaging, and a true professional. Overall, a fun time was had. Even if you have those personal referrals, where all your friends say they’re the best bartender, I say you give Mario that shot to host your party. He’s the man. We highly recommend him and look forward to working with him again. From Brenda and Julian, thank you Mario! We will be having you again soon. Sorry I don’t have more photos but you can see the type of bar swarms he had to deal with lol."See more

FAQs

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

How much does it cost to hire a bartender for a private party?

Hiring a bartender for a private party typically costs between $270 and $390 in total. On an hourly basis, expect to pay at least $40 to $60 per hour, as well as a flat fee. How much you’ll pay, however, depends on the time of year or day, the size of the party and other factors. Get in touch with a few bartenders near you and request a free estimate — it’s the only way to get an accurate idea of how much private bartending services will cost you.

Check out “How much does it cost to hire a bartender?” to learn more about the cost factors.

Do bartenders need to be licensed?

Certain counties, cities and states may require licensing. Check your local government’s regulations before starting your search.

In many cases, you might want to choose a bartender who has a license and/or certification. If you’re considering hiring a bartender for an upcoming event or a special occasional, check their online profiles to find out what credentials they have. If you can’t find the information online, don’t hesitate to ask them directly when requesting to receive free estimates.

How do I find a good bartender?

Put some time on your calendar to research and compare top-rated bartenders near you online. Start by looking at their ratings and services. For example, some bartending services will provide a waitstaff, glassware, ice, coolers, food and more.

Next, look at their photos of past events and read the customer reviews. Find feedback on the bartenders’ services. Did they offer fair pricing? Did they show up on time to set up? Did they bring all of the appropriate drinks, cups, supplies and decorations? Did they interact politely with the party guests and provide a pleasant overall experience? And did they do the agreed-upon cleanup afterward?

Narrow down your top choices, and start contacting the bartenders. Ask for cost estimates for your event, and tell them how many people will be attending, what type of event it is and what services you require. You should also ask them questions about their experience.

Bartenders may need a license in your state, county or city to work at a private party. Make sure they’re properly certified before you hire anyone.
