I was able to join the night classes the same day on Monday evenings and have just completed my first week. I feel very confident in my skills and how they're continuing to grow.

I've learned many of the popular drinks I see getting ordered every time I go out. I can't wait to learn next week and see how my skills improve. Very affordable and I'd really recommend the course to my friends & family! read more

I had such an incredible experience at ABC Bartending School, and a huge part of that was thanks to Max. He is honestly one of the best instructors I've ever had, super knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely passionate about what he does. Max made everything feel approachable, whether it was learning classic cocktails or getting comfortable behind the bar. He explains things in a way that actually sticks, and he's always encouraging, which made a big difference in building my confidence. You can tell he really cares about his students succeeding, not just passing the course. The class itself was fun, hands-on, and way more engaging than I expected, but Max is what made it stand out. If you're thinking about learning bartending, I'd 100% recommend this school especially if you get to learn from him. Such a great experience! read more

I am rewriting this review because i deleted my other but just for public record. On oct. 2. I have a mental episode/neurological episode in Max's 6pm class. After the episode, I had no recollection of anything and the memory came back weeks later. During the episode, the teacher refused to call for help. Instead, he and the classmates mentally abused, tormented, antagonist, coerced and exploited me. In addition, i was sexually assaulted and coerced into doing inappropriate things. Ex. Max kissed me. I was so delirious and had severe confusion I couldn't tell what was left from right. I already spoke to the owner/manager John about this. The owner said Max knew nothing and nothing happened. They lied. I am putting it here to keep it on record. Thanks! Luis is cool tho, I took the test in his class. read more

Finished the classes last week after taking the two-week morning course, and it was a fantastic experience.

I'd definitely recommend this program to anyone looking to get into bartending!! read more

Eve is an absolute gem. She's down-to-Earth, efficient, self-aware and truly wants you to win. From drink execution to bartending etiquette, both Eve and Max make sure you're ahead of every curve -- ABC should lowkey be mandatory for ALL bartenders. Their schedule options are beyond flexible, so there's really no excuse. It's literally 10 years worth of experience in two weeks (or less!). Also, very much recommend Max's resume/private event masterclass if you want to hit the ground running on the literal day of your graduation -- it's mind-blowing the difference minor changes in your resume layout makes in terms of getting callbacks. The opportunities you walk away with access to are truly unparalleled. read more

The most fun experience I've ever had! Super helpful--you get to learn so many different cocktails, and they give you plenty of time to practice. I even came back after my session to keep practicing. The study materials were clear and easy to follow. read more

It has been a few months since I went to ABC bartending school and passed. I went into this not knowing much about bartending or how to make drinks. I was very nervous about taking this course as it was a career change for me. I loved how this course, taught by Eve and Max, gave me the confidence to show up to a job and know what to do. The class was detailed. The class had teacher time and hands on time. Included was a book I could study. I knew by the end of the course how to make so many different drinks. I knew the names and the ingredients. I knew how to pour many drinks within a short amount of time. All these things happened because I had excellent teachers. Even though I graduated, I still have the support of Max and Eve for references and just guidance. ABC Bartending school cares about their students success. Thank you Max and Eve. I do miss the classes though. They were so much fun. read more

Eve was my instructor and she was AMAZING. She was very knowledgeable and gave us the tools to succeed in the class. I learned so much about bartending and am excited to get started and come back to see her and continue learning. read more

ABC is the best school around! Max was our super experienced instructor and sets you up for success.

I love the night teacher max he's the best . I started 2 weeks ago and I love it I've learned so much within my time and it's truly amazing

*will update my review after I get a job* For context, I have been a barback for over a year and a half. I had multiple jobs false promise to teach me how to bartend. I heard the same thing, "just be patient" and "just continue to put your time in" just for my employer to waste my time, so I decided to take matters into my own hands and learn. Unlike the unsolicited advice you'll hear from every anti-bartending school nay sayer - this course is 100% worth it especially if you already have experience in hospitality/food and service. This is not an easy course you definitely have to put your study hours in. But at the end, you get your bartending certification as well as your responsible beverage service license - a state requirement included in your tuition. Investing in yourself and putting time into learning a new skill is ALWAYS worth it. Thank you Eve for being a great, easygoing and funny teacher. I can't wait to see what the future has in store for me! read more
