I was looking for a bartending school to attend and notice that alot of the other schools on long…read moreisland were closed. After checking out bartending school in NYC, I decided to go to All Star Bartending in Farmingdale, NY. The price was right, the location was better for me and after finding and attending a Living Social 16 hour deal, I decided this was the school i wanted to continue my 40 hour course with. They sent me daily email reminders of class and even cancellations. The instructors there were good, Chris was good but Max made everyone laugh and enjoy the class even more. I highly recommend that if you are planning on taking bartending class, All Star is a school you take into consideration.

Taking this course was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I've always wanted to bartend but…read morewas too scared to walk into a job blind. All Star Bartending provided me with knowledge that will last me a life time. I got a job right out of class and am more than comfortable behind the bar. The best part is you can come back an unlimited amount of times for brush ups or practice with no additional fee!! BEST THING EVER. DO IT.

I've been a chiropractor for 22 years and always wanted to bartend on the side. I finally decided…read moreto go for it to meet new people, to have a second income and mostly to add something new and exciting to my life. I just finished the 2 week bartending certification including ATAP at 1800 Bartend in Farmingdale last week. It's right next to Adventureland. The course packs a lot of information in during a short period of time. We easily learned over 100 drinks. The school is set up like a bar. Jerry the instructor is hilarious and highly entertaining. I call him the YODA of bartending. He probably could have been a comedian in another life. The class was very enjoyable, stress free and the small group size was ideal for maximum hands on practice making all the drinks. From rocks drinks, to sours, shots, martinis, and mixed drinks, we learned it all. I even made a few new friends in the class that I will be keeping in touch with. There was a guest bartending night at a bar in Coram to serve drinks if you brought friends and a test at the end of the 2 weeks to make sure you have the main drinks down. Since the class ended I have been in touch with Richard who helps the graduates with job placement. He has already given me a few leads. For the money, I learned alot and thoroughly enjoyed 1800 Bartend. I'm looking forward to starting my side hustle bartending and will keep you posted on my journey. Goals: Wind up bartending on the water in The Hamptons! Thanks again 1800 Bartend. Cheers! Dr. Max @thedrmaxshow

I would 100% recommended this school for anyone trying to learn basic bartending skills. I took the…read more8 day course back in January 2021 with Jerry and I waited to post a review until I was employed behind the bar. I learned so many techniques, drink recipes and insider tips during this short course that have helped me tremendously on the job. Plus, the class was so much fun! You're not going to learn everything in one course but having this certification has opened the door for me and I am so grateful. If your hesitant, I promise it's worth it. I made back what I spent on the tuition in two shifts at the bar! Best ROI ever.

The bartender I hired was extremely helpful from setup all the way to cleanup. So many of my friends complimented me on the bartender's drinks, they were absolutely delicious! Although there were a lot of moving parts and guests at my party, the bartender was able to make drinks really quickly and really helped with the atmosphere. She was super knowledgeable about the drinks, arrived early, and wore professional attire. She had all the materials necessary for making drinks, and she was super professional from start to finish. Can't recommend CBA enough for their incredible service and professionalism!Will definitely hire again from them for future events, and it's amazing how all the bartenders are college students too.

So you can make it extra strong :) I think my favorite drink to make was the Negroni, as the instructor taught us several ways to make it. Overall a great experience! Left very happy and tipsy.

The instructor is a guy named Dennis who is perverted and says terrible uncomfortable jokes and also has an attitude the entire day. He tells you how to make a drink in 10 minutes (and then makes you write down these stupid ass codes that he thinks are wonderful) down for you to memorize. He says you have to complete 40 hours and I literally went for 3 days (24 hours) and told me that I was ready to take the exam. Then he gave me an attitude when I told him im not ready so I showed up after spending all night studying (because who the hell whats to lose 300 hard earned dollars) just so that he can tell me to go home because im not ready! He definitely finds joy in being an asshole. So I took the exam and unfortunately wasn't prepared and I didnt even go back he can keep the 300$. Dont go to this garbage unprofessional school. Spend another 300 and go to the city where you will actually learn something. I really hope they close this place down because it is a scam. He acts like hes paying you to be there.
