The Cocktail Crew was superb. Arrived early, set-up quickly and mixed fantastic drinks. Dakota had a super personality that added energy to our pool party. Will definitely call-on the Crew again at our next event.

Fantastic! Thank you, Cocktail Crew San Diego. We had an AWESOME bartender at a small, at-home event. Did all the things that are expected of great service (arrived on time, knowledgeable, helpful, attentive to guests, responsive to hosts...) and SO MUCH MORE! Many guests were elderly. Our bartender went to them (instead of waiting for them to come to him) to ensure drinks were refreshed and everyone had everything they needed. He anticipated guests' needs, and then met them with grace and kindness. He was entirely self-sufficient and took the worry of seeing to guests' drink needs away from hosts so that we, too, could enjoy the party. Highly recommend. We'll be back! Can't imagine hosting another event *without* Cocktail Crew.

I booked The cocktail Crew for a 3 hour holiday party and they did an amazing job from start to finish! In fact, I had guests asking for the contact info after the party. Matthew and Carlos both were professional and friendly with all of my guests. They were attentive to everyone’s needs throughout the evening whether it was a cocktail or food serving. String up the evening was way and i was kept informed on everything throughout the process. On the day of the party. Both of them arrived on time and 2/2 hour early to help set up. During the party they did their thing not requiring anything of me, the host, so I could also enjoy the company of friends. At the end , they were phenomenal in cleaning up as well. I would hands down use the service again and definitely recommend anyone to give them a call for your next party. Thank you!!!!

The Cocktail Crew was fabulous from the moment of initial outreach. Nelson was so communicative throughout booking and leading up to the event. I greatly appreciated the help fine tuning the cocktail menu and receiving suggestions on the ingredients. On the day of the party Jarick was an amazing bartender. Both his drinks and company made the event a huge success! Would absolutely book again if I’m in Scottsdale! Thank you!

The Cocktail Crew was hands down one of the highlights of our week! We booked their new Cocktail Class and had an absolute blast! Marcos kept us laughing, taught us the coolest tricks, and every cocktail we made was delicious! Our group had SO much fun shaking, stirring, and sipping our way through the class. Highly recommend for a girls or guys night in or the perfect pregame 😉!

They know how to read the room, adapt to the pace of your party, and keep guests taken care of without disrupting the moment. Most importantly, it gives you the peace of mind to actually enjoy the event you worked so hard to plan. This isn’t just pouring drinks—it’s hospitality.
