(As seen on Google) “I can’t rave enough about John’s Bartending Services. We recently hired John for an office party at our Loop location and John went above and beyond from the outset. He is timely, kind, affable, helpful and professional. He made everyone feel comfortable and took the pressure off of us to enjoy our guests and the scene. He paid attention to everything. I will definitely hire John again in the future and highly recommend you do too.”–November 18, 2021
(As seen on Yelp) “Just wow! I hired John for my an outdoor couples wedding shower and just do not have enough great things to say about him. He went over and beyond – helping clear plates after lunch, passing out waters as it was pretty warm. He didn’t stay stationary at the bar/table we had set up. When there was a bit of a lull he walked the crowd asking if anyone needed anything… and pretty confident he remembered every one’s name. He exceeded any expectations that I had and can’t wait to host another party and we’ll absolutely have John back!”–August 14, 2021
(As seen on Yelp) “John’s Bartending staff assisted in our daughters wedding in our backyard last weekend. His crew was absolutely amazing! Words cannot express the gratitude I have for them helping to make the day run smoothly! John supplied 2 bartenders and 2 servers.  ALL members were punctual, happy, upbeat, engaged, and Janet was dancing while tending bar!! Totally awesome! We had 100 people in attendance and everyone commented on their great service and how personable they were!  The two servers helped with preparing catered food to be served; refilled trays as need, heated and served appetizers, cleaned up food, and packed up leftovers for guests! What a blessing; I honestly don’t know what I would’ve done without them! I was a bit leary to book them online as I had never met them or known anyone to use their service, but I did as their reviews were all quite positive! Alas, they far exceeded my expectations! Suffice it to say…I’m a super fan, and you will not be disappointed in booking this amazing service!”–July 24, 2021

(As seen on Yelp) “We used John and Janet for our home wedding and they were incredible. They did so much more than just tend bar–saving us cake, providing my wife an umbrella, delivering us drinks while we scurried around, taking care of the trash, and basically doing everything in their power to make sure that we were comfortable, our guests were taken care of, and so we wouldn’t have to worry about a thing on our day. They are the utmost professionals, and communicated clearly from the start and followed up as we got closer to the day. I cannot recommend them enough.” July 10, 2021

(As seen on Yelp) “We used John’s service on 6/26 and were completely satisfied. Grace was our bartender. Grace was pleasant, helpful and a great bartender. She even did a great job with a cocktail she had not made before. We would definitely use John’s Bartending Services again and recommend them to anyone looking to hire a bartender.”–June 26, 2021

(As seen on Yelp)” I hired John and his team for a graduation party.  Cannot say enough about how great their services were.  Right as the party was about to start, it began to storm and John was as cool as could be and just rearranged everything to be able to provide the services under a covered patio.  He was always very friendly and the help he had with him was outstanding.  At the end of the party, there was no clean up to do and you would not have even have known that we had 100 people at our house.  Would highly recommend them.”–June 12, 2021

“I could spend all day raving about how wonderful Grace and Kathy were! Besides just doing an exceptional job, they were both such lovely, genuine people to be around. So fun, helpful and just the perfect mentality for a party like ours. We had ages 24-65 in our home that night and they made everyone feel so welcome. My cousin brought their baby and at one point I saw Kathy helping them warm a bottle-what a saint! Grace kept every cup full, made wonderful cocktails and ran such a smart, organized bar! We had such little waste this year because she was so thoughtful about what she had opened. Very impressive and appreciated! Kathy was so helpful keeping everything from crowds, to food, to clean up running smoothly. Those last few minutes before a party starts I’m always hustling to get those final touches completed, and the way she kindly jumped in and helped me wrap up without me asking was so appreciated! I wish I could have her with me every time I host! Thank you for giving us such an incredible team, you’ll definitely be hearing from me again for our next party! Happy Holidays and thank you again.”–December 11, 2021

Ha ha. Thank you for going above and beyond. You made the evening so much easier for me. I really appreciate it.
