Thanks for bartending for our Halloween Costume Bash. I was amazed you were able to pull off the event with only 6 days notice! David, was great. He showed up on time, set up quickly, was able to make everything people asked for that we had ingredients to make. And He even got into the costume theme. The planning tools were pretty spot on. Everyone was very pleased with the service!We'll be contacting you again next time we need a bartender.

Better Bartender worked an event for me and I couldn’t be happier with the quality and taste of the drinks that were made. They were also able to give me a range of drinks within the budgeting set aside for catering. The service provided is too notch and communication was so easy, it was like talking with a friend. The company was punctual and arrived early to set up, really making this venture of working together so easy. We were able to come up with a couple specialty drink that fit within the theme and vibe of the special event, and the guests loved them! I highly recommend Better Bartender!

I definitely feel I made the right decision going with A Better Bartender! David showed up early, was super helpful and friendly during set up, and did an awesome job bartending the event. He has a great personality and all the attendees loved him. Definitely booking again for future services, as it was such an overall a great experience. Thanks again

David has an outstanding personal presence. He is attuned to guests needs, tidy, friendly and fun. He knows how to make a delicious cocktail while being playful and personal at the same time (something I feel bartenders work hard to find a balance with). David, thank you for your incredible work!
