Bobby was incredible!!! He showed up and got everything setup for our party beautifully. All we did was purchased the booze, some bags of ice and he took care of the rest. All of the guests loved him and kept telling us how kind he was and how all the drinks he made were wonderful. We drew up a list of cocktails for him and he delivered everything perfectly. Very knowledgeable bar tender. Will be hiring him until he retires! 20 out of 10 stars!

10000/10 experience!!
We hired Bobby for our wedding after party, and we’re so glad we did. It was tough finding someone willing to work from 11 PM to around 2 AM, but Bobby not only accommodated those hours—he stayed well past 2 AM until the party naturally wound down.
He helped me plan the drink menu and made sure I had all the alcohol I needed ahead of time and brought everything else that was needed himself. He arrived early, handled all the setup himself, and looked incredibly professional. He also dealt with all of our (very drunk and slightly chaotic) guests with total professionalism—and still managed to be super fun. Everyone loved him, and his setup was amazing.
I would hire Bobby 100 more times and recommend him to absolutely anyone. Thank you again, Bobby, for being a part of and helping make our day so special!!

I will be hiring Party Pour with Kore for all of my future bartending needs! Bobby was very responsive and helpful with anything I needed or was concerned about. My party had both an “inside” and “outside” layout and he was attentive to both areas all night. All of my guests raved about how efficient he was with making drinks and also charming! I couldn’t recommend Bobby more!!!

Excellent bartender! I hired Bobby for my husband's 40th birthday and he went above and beyond. Not only did he manage the bar and make excellent cocktails, but he assisted me with setting up the party area and with clean up after. I highly recommend him!

I hired Bobby of Party Pour for my mom's 80th bday celebration in my backyard August 2024. An absolute delight. Charismatic, friendly, great conversationalist, which is key for a bartender, and very knowledgeable. Knew all requested drinks and made guests feel welcome, comfortable, and heard. Replenished bar stock and emptied trash when necessary. Guests loved him and asked where i found him. Would absolutely hire him again. Fast forward to December 2024 when my mom hired him for her 58th annual holiday party. Once again, he did an excellent job and was loved by all. I will see him again this December for mom's 59th holiday party. Highly recommend!!
