Booked for Anniversary

Fantastic, I was let down by another supplier the week before my event and I had a call with these guys and they were on it and fantastic from the get go. Talked through all requirements, advised on drinks, efficient, communication and organization was fab, then on the night, the tam were fantastic, they were entertainment in themselves, every guest said how fun, interactive hilarious they were, completely made the night! Highly recommend and cant wait to work together again one day.

Booked for Birthday party

Was a great evening - started out by making guests individual cocktails on a menu of 5 different drinks and moved to batch drinks - he ensured to fill up the jugs before leaving and kept to time. We prepped the bar beforehand and provided equipment to keep the bar area clean / dry and easy access to a sink and ice - I think if you’re planning to book this service, that would help you get the most out of it rather than a lot of the time being spent setting up / struggling to keep on top of the cleaning. One small suggestion is to maybe let people know ahead of time what would be useful to have in terms of a more detailed equipment list. As there were many guests and one bartender, we moved to batch cocktails which worked great, but we didn’t have enough jugs - this would have been easy to get had we known :) Also using measures the whole night would’ve been more ideal so the alcohol didn’t get rinsed so quickly, but with 50 people and one bartender, he did a good job to keep things going and the drinks were lovely. By the end of the night he had a weird mix of spirits and mixers to work with and still managed to make good drinks, so thank you for making a great night for everybody!! ☺️

Booked for Birthday party

Derrick was very communicative from the moment I made the booking. He reached out to discuss my needs/wishes for the event and advised on what I would need to purchase. He allocated Kieran for our booking, he turned up early, was incredibly polite and helpful and looked super smart. All the guests complimented the service that Kieran provided and commented on how respectful and attentive he was throughout the evening. I will definitely be booking Kieran again for future events. Thanks so much Derrick and Kieran for ensuring the evening was a success.

Booked for Birthday party

Mixologist was great. The agency little slow at times to replay to messages. I would have rated them 5stars, the shopping list they gave me was missing 3 crucial ingredients despite me giving them a list of favourite cocktails 🍸. They suggested I buy thirteen bags of crushed & cube ice. I brought 10 of each and still had 12 leftover. Only suggestions I’ve for the agency is they let the mixologist request the ingredients list. Totally recommend 👍😁

Rita couldn’t have been more helpful and her barman Ilario was so hardworking and charming. A really great choice for our informal 50th birthday party.

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
