Used Mr. Bartender for a company party, couldn't have asked for anything more! They have a huge list of options as far as specialty cocktails go. The ones we chose were interesting and delicious! Better than your run of the mill margaritas and old fashioneds. Bar staff were friendly and professional, and the portable bars were cute and well stocked. Would recommend their services to anyone looking for a bartending service. read more

I hired their services for my birthday party and had a great experience with them! The bartenders on staff were friendly, professional, and fast. They took care of everything, I didn't have to list a finger. Would recommend to anyone looking to add an elevated touch to their event. read more

I used Mr. Bartender for a company party to thank the team for all of the hard work they've done. We got "The Works" and it had everything we could've asked for! They had their own bar and glasses so we didn't need to do a thing. The drinks were so good. Plus the bartenders were really professional. Our team had such a good time. We will definitely be booking with them again next year! Thank you Mr. Bartender! read more

I rarely bother to leave reviews, but the team provided by Mr. Bartender to work my staff appreciation night went above and beyond, and I really want to shout them out. If you want friendly, quality service from a bartending crew, look no further. read more

Worst experience EVER, don't bother with this guy or you'll regret it like we did. Mr. Bartender bailed on our event last minute without a word, leaving us to scramble for a backup the day of. I attached my messages back and forth with Mr. Bartender (who also operates under the name Los Angeles Mobile Bartender since Covid) to show you how amicable things were. I found them online when I was looking for drinks for our party. It slightly concerned me that he never provided his name, never responded via email and only communicated via Instagram, and he accepted Venmo as his only form of payment. I worried it might be a scam, but I decided not to worry so much, and trust it. HUGE mistake. After our exchange, he never showed up to make the delivery for the order we placed, and blocked me on social media for no apparent reason. Super bizarre, and beyond a waste of time. Do yourself a favor and hire for your event elsewhere!!! P.S. This page has a lot of 5 star reviews, but I wouldn't trust them. They're for the other bartenders he hires out, not Mr. Bartender himself, who's a hot mess. If that's how you run your so-called "business", good luck keeping customers. Tons of other hardworking, deserving bartenders out there who would appreciate the business and treat their clients with respect and decency. read more

Had them again and they were wonderful! Got four semi-customized drinks and I heard all night how great they were. They worked with me in a difficult time as well. Thank you! read more

8 years and countless events later, I am quite certain that Mr. Bartender is the best bartending service for hire in the Los Angeles area. Beyond the incredibly delicious and creative drinks already on their menu, Anthony and his team have always been eager and willing to work with me to create new creations whenever I've had a particular theme in mind for a party. A night in Santorini? Anthony came up with over a dozen cocktail options utilizing Mediterranean ingredients and spirits. An ode to Casablanca? A slew of drinks that would have been right at home in Rick's Café Américain. This past weekend, I hosted a friend's small backyard wedding and we settled on some signature Bride and Groom cocktails the couple couldn't have been happier with. The staff is always on time, courteous, and professional. I have never had any issues arise with anyone Anthony has deemed good enough to be a part of the Mr. Bartender team. I hope to have many more years of entertaining ahead of me and whenever there's an open bar, I wouldn't want anyone other than Mr. Bartender running it. read more

We hired Mr. Bartender back in December for our company holiday party, and Matt (our bartender) was outstanding. He was personable, the drinks all tasted perfect, and he even ran out across the street to get extra alcohol for us because we ran out quicker than we expected. His service was exceptional! I love that Mr. Bartender offers a seasonal cocktail menu. All of their cocktails are so creative and delicious. You really can't go wrong with any of them. We also had the option to rename some of the seasonal cocktails to fit the theme of our party, which we really appreciated. Unfortunately I really cannot say the same for our booking experience. I completely understand this is a small business and they may be short-staffed, but I really think they should find a way to better manage clients and booking requests. We were frantically trying to get an invoice from Anthony and his team before the event - we made several calls and sent multiple reminder emails. It was extremely stressful for myself and our event planner because we weren't even sure if we had actually booked them yet since we hadn't paid for anything. We received the invoice ONE day before the event (12/7), even though we had completed the booking form back in November. Today I received an invoice for the tip, which was intended to be paid in December 2021 (it is now March 2022), and I was honestly taken aback that it still hadn't been charged yet. I also felt extremely bad for our bartender, Matt, who probably didn't receive a tip at all after our event because it is just getting charged NOW. This is over 3 months later...Like I said, I can totally empathize with the fact that they may be short-staffed and busy, but there is always room for improvement. Overall, I think Mr. Bartender makes great drinks and they provide a wonderful service. Their bartenders are professional, dressed appropriately, and leave a wonderful lasting impression on guests, BUT they definitely need more work on the backend side of the business, whether it's hiring someone to manage and respond to emails in a timely manner, or someone who can manage the bookkeeping and invoices. Although I definitely would love to hire Mr. Bartender again solely for their drinks and bartenders, I sincerely hope that this booking process can be fixed to be much more efficient and professional. read more

Party of about 40 for our holiday party (friends & family) We rented two bars and hired two incredible bartenders (Carter and Miranda) from Mr. Bartender. It was incredibly convenient to hire the staff AND rent the bars from the same place. We wanted our friends to experience craft cocktails like we love from our favorite bars, without having to go to a bar... What we got were unbelievable cocktails that were better than the cocktails we get from our favorite bars! Absolutely blown away with the attention to detail, execution and service. The bars we rented looked AMAZING, the Bartenders were both hip, friendly and knowledgeable, and our guests were beyond impressed. Mr. Bartender exceeded our expectations and we can't wait to use them again in the future! read more

I used this company once before bartender was nice but she was far from a $90 an hour bartender still tipped 20% on top of that outrageous hourly rate. Second time I called them had it agreed with the owner of the company and he said fill out a form I said will get it to you using you for sure then I was 12 hours late on sending form bc it wouldn't download on my phone and they said they could not accommodate. This left me scrambling for another company which I found for cheaper but was just very unprofessional wound recommend using another company read more

Mr. Bartender was great for booking on a quick turnaround time! They brought their own bar and gave great recommendations based on our event. Their list of drinks are creative and add a flare to your event. I would 10/10 use them again in the future. read more

Miranda was hands down the best mixologist I have worked with in awhile. She made our superbowl party so amazing!!!!! read more

Awesome experience with Mr Bartender for our backyard party. The menu and cocktails were expertly crafted and our bartender Carter, hit it out of the park. Will for sure have them back for our next event. If you're on the fence, jump! This really made the party extra special and fun. read more

Mr. Bartender was a perfect service to use for our wedding. Loved the option of being able to bring in our own alcohol and not pay an outrageous fee that other services were asking for. They also provided great servers to help out with the evening as well. Everything ran smooth, and the head bartender for the evening, Matt, was easy to work with on-site. Anthony was easy to work with as well, and helped us out where we needed it with small rentals like tables, trash cans, etc. read more

My siblings and I hired Mr. Bartender for our Mom's 65th birthday, and it was AMAZING! It added such a fun vibe to our party, and of course delicious drinks. We had Chris as our bartender, and he helped us book him within 1 week of our event, because we waited last minute. He was so friendly, and so helpful. He helped us every step of the way, it couldn't have been any easier. We chose the preset menu, which included: 80 going on 18, Going Grey, The Bored Housewife, and Backseat Bingo (My absolute favorite). I recommend this service 100%, it's worth every penny, and whatever alcohol isn't used during your event, you get to keep. Thank you so much Chris!! read more

We hired Mr Bartender for our Christmas/engagement party this year and they did an AMAZING job. They helped us with all the shopping and preparations before the party which saved us so much time and headspace. At the party, Carlos and his colleague were not only talented bar tenders but also totally clicked with our guests. An outstandingly good full service company, worth every $$$$. We will certainly make them part of our holiday tradition from now on. Merci !! read more

We hired them to bartend our wedding, and are so happy we did! They're very busy, but took the time to come do a site visit with us to make sure we had everything we needed beforehand. The amount of alcohol they told us to get was right on target. We had two bartenders and a bar back, and they showed up on time and set everything up perfectly! The drinks were all delicious, and they kept the line moving all night. Will definitely hire them for our next event! read more

5/22/2018 Mr. Bartender was fantastic! I used them for a birthday celebration and it elevated the event tremendously. It was my first time using a bartender and they did a great job explaining what they could provide versus what I could purchase. I ended up renting a bar from them and i'm so glad I did! The bartender was on-time, efficient, and made great cocktails. He was incredibly chatty with guests and made the experience that much more memorable. I would no doubt recommend Mr. Bartender to anyone! read more

Mr. Bartender - Bar table rented from Mr. Bartender. - Bartenders Near Me

Sooooo Disappointed......peeved and upset. Hired them for my wedding. We had two bartenders due to the recommendation that our craft cocktails would take a little more time than your average drink. So we figured, that makes sense. After all, we didn't want our guests waiting in line for too long. We had 3 craft/signature drinks along with beer and wine. The bartenders took anywhere from 4-5 minutes per drink. It was ridiculous, especially because: 1. The cocktails truly were not complicated. 2. I provided the recipes at least 2 weeks prior to my event. 3. They had the recipes in front of them. 4. There were only 3 drinks to make. 5. There were two bartenders on site. We also purchased cute straws for our cocktails and only 1/2 of them were used. Having had to deal with all of the stress that comes with a wedding, I was really looking forward to having one of my signature cocktails at my wedding. Unfortunately it took forever to get it...oh and it didn't taste the way it should have. This was due to the owner suggesting that I use club soda instead of sprite and neglecting to remind me that I needed to add a sweetener like agave to balance the drink out. It did cross my mind, but I just let it go. I should've gone with my gut. When I tasted my drink, it was lacking a lot of flavor because there was no sweetness to it. I had to tell the bartenders to stop using the club soda because I didn't have any sweeteners for the drinks. Luckily we had some Sprite available for our guests who just wanted soda. I asked the bartenders to use the sprite in the cocktails instead of the club soda. I don't know if they used it or not. Although the bartenders weren't as quick as we expected or wanted them to be, they were very friendly. It's just so upsetting to be disappointed on your wedding day, after all the money and planning you've put into it. read more

From start to finish Mr. Bartender was outstanding! During the initial consultation to figure out what we wanted the Team was attentive and provided amazing recommendations and advice. They made the whole process leading up to the event painless and left little doubt they would do an excellent job. This past Saturday was our event. The two bartenders were above and beyond. Setup was as expected, but here they shined was with their service. So friendly and quick. No one ever waited for drinks and everyone had great things to say about them. Drinks were so goooodddddd! Would 100% use them again. Thanks Mr. Bartender. read more

I can't say enough good things about the Mr. Bartender team! I just had my 25th birthday/housewarming party and without the creative cocktail list we came up with and their tenacious dedication to their craft the party wouldn't have been the success it was. Will undoubtedly use you guys again. Great work! read more

Mr. Bartender - Bartenders Near Me

Mr. Bartender did our wedding just this past Saturday and we loved them. The bartenders looked professional and were friendly and hard-working. They were on time and delivered as promised, carrying the heavy boxes of wine from the kitchen to the bar area and then taking the left over boxes back to the kitchen at the end of the night. The most important thing for a wedding is a vendor's reliability, and it feels good that we were able to trust them with our precious day. We only served beer, sodas and wine so it probably wasn't as stressful as running a full bar, but I have confidence that when I can offer signature drinks at my next (way smaller) event, they will handle it with just as much grace. They had plenty of ice to keep everything cold, and it all looked presentable. Thank you, Anthony! I'll be calling you again soon.... ;) read more

I found Mr. Bartender on yelp. With a last minute cancellation, I was in dire need of replacement bar staff for a small business event. I called Mr. Bartender and spoke with Anthony, who was way beyond helpful. He consulted with me on the event and offered me his advice for amounts, budgets, guests, suggested cocktails and purchasing. I ended the call completely satisfied! Or so I thought.. Two days later it came time for the event. Leah, the bartender, was so kind, professional and helpful. At this point I was completely blown away by this business! I HIGHLY recommend this business and will most definitely use them again for my future events! Thanks Mr. Bartender read more

Worst service from a company I've ever hired. Any negative review on this Yelp page you should read how they respond to customers. Anthony the owner replied to my comment and it's actually shocking reading a response of such from an owner. I fully appreciate the apology from the lead. We just wanted to make sure they knew we had several complaints through the night. To have an owner state he didn't feel she should even apologize speaks volume. Our frustration and review was to let this company know things need to be different. the OWNER decided to get political and form accusations. For example he insinuated our family and friends are BIGOTS for not liking their service from their lead. Of which I never asked nor knew how she identified or her sexual orientation only commented on her professionalism. Not to point out we had queer guests & family members there so his comment is irrelevant. As far as the comment about the chant at our wedding from a guest- we did not ask for it to happen, we addressed our issue with the guest after stating we did not appreciate the comment. and if you have a problem with political beliefs I recommended you state these issues on your site. No way you'll ever get business after stating something like that on your page that your anger came from political beliefs. You should know better. Find another profession if that's your case, or don't make accusations and claim to be inclusive of all. If that should tell you anything at all. I work in weddings event planning and would never recommend Anthonys service to anyone in the area. read more

Chris has been fantastic to work with. He's been flexible during the c19 issues and provides A1 service

I work in the events industry and tried to talk to someone in customer service. She was rude, put out and unwilling to listen. If you are looking to make any customizations than what is laid out on their site don't bother contacting them. So disappointed in this company and their communication. Definitely lost my business! read more

Anthony was incredibly helpful during our planning process- he recommended drinks based on the flavors we told him we liked and threw in a few suggestions to try that we ended up loving! We had 5 signature drinks at our wedding in addition to the open bar and our guests absolutely RAVED about the drinks. We were given a comprehensive breakdown of exactly what everything cost and a shopping list if we wanted to shop for the items ourselves. The service throughout the night was great- the bartenders always made sure the guests and especially my new husband I had a drink in hand. The bartenders were super friendly and kept things flowing without long waits. All bottles and anything that was left over at the end of the night was neatly packed up and provided back to us! Overall I would highly recommend Mr. Bartender. Amazing drinks and a fantastic experience.! Will definitely use again in the future! read more

I've used Mr. Bartender twice now, and that's because my first experience was so great. I really appreciated that bartender, and he was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to help me during that event. It was a stressful time for me, and he calmed me down. The most recent event was different, though. The bartender we worked with was actively unfriendly, which was a problem not just for me but for my guests. She could've been having an off night -- it happens! -- but I was really surprised by it. She arrived early, which was great, but then was incredibly brusque, not friendly, and I had to ask a lot of direct questions to make sure she had everything she needed and that we were in good working order. I just kind of wish she'd been more communicative and friendly, overall! I also emailed this feedback directly to the owner, and he never responded to my email, which is why I'm posting this here now. One great event, one bad one. I would've used them again, but the owner's lack of communication with me after I told him it went poorly means I won't be using them again. read more

Mr. Bartender is a professional bartending service I love working with. I am a Wedding & Events Coordinator, so my standards are high. From the moment you contact them to request a quote, you are met with quick responses and high quality service. They are so friendly and make the whole process clear and easy to understand. After you decide to hire them, again, their communication is prompt and courteous. They offer superb service on the day of your event and ensure everything runs smoothly and is cleaned up quickly and efficiently. The staff at Mr. Bartender is always courteous and professional. I highly recommend them for your bartender needs. read more

First - I need to apologize for the delay (Sorry Anthony & Danny!!). I used Mr. Bartender back in November for a birthday party at my home. Anthony was extremely responsive and helpful from the very beginning. He helped me put together a 20's themed cocktail menu that would appeal to a variety of tastes AND keep my shopping list to a minimum. I had him do all of the shopping as well which I also hugely recommend (hassle free!). On to our bartender Danny - he was incredible. He was on time, set up the bar and had everything ready to roll with little to no questions. He was really accommodating when it came to drink requests and offered to run to the store when we found ourselves running low on one alcohol. He even went out of his way to track me down if I asked for a drink and then accidentally wandered away due to hosting needs. Multiple times. =\ He broke everything down and cleaned up the whole area so there was nothing I had to deal with later. So great. If you're interested in hiring a bartender for an event, I highly recommend. Mine was a small 30 person event and it made all the difference having Anthony's help and Danny on site. Thank you both! read more

Bottom line Mr. Bartender is SO easy to work with. I seriously LOVE the cocktails. I've also had the LA Mobile Bartender cocktails and they were amazing! The bartenders were so much fun and I can't wait to work with them for future events. They made my event significantly less stressful and they were super accommodating. The inclusiveness of the staff was not only inviting but also comforting. It tells me this is a business that does not discriminate and has integrity! read more

They were excellent! Great service, so easy to work with, price was fair, and they were very responsive and accommodating. The bartender was extremely kind, made amazing drinks and was lovely to speak to! Thank you for a great experience, will definitely look to book with you for future events. read more

I was recommended to Mr. Bartender by a previous colleague. I reached out, received a fast response from Chris who provided specifics and price breakdowns for my event. The whole booking process was simple and we LOVED having Melanie at our Resident Event. I will only be using this service going forward and recommend you do the same! Thanks Mr. Bartender for taking care of the service portion of our event... one less stress- i knew everything was taken care of! read more

We had Mr. Bartender do me and my wife's combined thirtieth birthday bash at our house. We had approximately 30 people and our bartender Jake was very efficient at making complex and delicious drinks for our guests... the bar was the center of the party. On the back end, Anthony was very patient and helpful when it came to answering our questions and Helping us build a menu. He really was essential for Idiot proofing it on our end. Highly recommend them if you want to give your guests a memorable experience and something unique. Especially if you think basic vanilla bars with some handles of hard alcohol, beer and some juices/soda are boring. read more

We love Mr. Bartender! My wife and I recently hired them for our casual wedding reception of 160 guests. Anthony was very responsive, and helped us pick out some signature cocktails that were AMAZING. We went with a classic Manhattan and the Juan Draper - the big hit of the night. They provided us with a shopping list that was pretty accurate with our headcount (we ended up with fewer guests than originally quoted, but I'm not complaining about a having few extra bottles of rye on hand). I would recommend you consider paying the extra charge to have them do the shopping, as the supplies can fill a car pretty fast. The bartenders showed up on time and happy. All I had to do was tell them where to set up the bar, and they took care of everything else. They were great and really friendly, checking in with me through the night, and occasionally slipping us cocktails or a glass of champagne to keep us fueled :) We had such a great time, we loved working with Mr. Bartender, we'll definitely hire them again! read more
