Two months ago, we hired the Mobile Barkeep for our wedding luncheon. We emailed an inquiry and Justin responded back right away. He was a pleasure to work with - great communication, professional, reliable, honest, and makes great drinks! Through a couple of email exchanges, he helped us create a signature drink menu, a shopping list and even offered to help us pick up some other items so I could save a trip to the store! He provided appropriate documents that my venue required. On the day of the event, he arrived early, brought everything he needed to set up the bar, and drinks were flowing when guests arrived. We had about 80 guests and he did a great job making drinks for everyone. One of the best decisions was to hire Justin for our event! Thanks Justin! More...

We used the Mobile Barkeep for my wedding back in March. We emailed and received a quick response back. We provided Justin with our guest count and ideas we had for our drinks. Whenever we had a question, he was very quick to get back to us. The day of the event the drinks were great! Very professional. Thank you for making drinks at our wedding! More...

Holly was sent out to bartend for our wedding. Everything went quite well and we were 100% satisfied with the experience. I especially liked that we purchased the supplies ourselves - so we kept any left over . We had about 75 people in attendance and she handled the group very well. More...

Justin with the Mobile Barkeep worked my 50th birthday party last weekend in Laguna Beach on September 29th, 2018. Â He did an excellent job and I have no complaints. Â Justin responded to my inquiry quickly. I believe his fee was fair. he worked with me to create a shopping list including a couple of special drinks for the event and created a spiffy menu to display during the party. Â the venue I rented did not have a bar so I was happy to learn Justin brings a bar with him and that saved me from having to rent one and have it delivered to the venue. Â Justin arrived early, set up efficiently and was ready to serve at the agreed upon time. He helped me to decorate the bar. Â He was friendly to our guests and managed to efficiently serve over 120 thirsty people on his own for over five hours. I don't think he ever took a break actually and his specialty drinks that included the muddling of fresh mint and fruit, were popular. Justin was hustling the whole night long! He cleaned up quickly and thoroughly afterwards. In summary, I recommend Justin highly and wouldn't hesitate to hire him again for future events. Â CJ More...

We were SO happy with our experience! Richard bartended our wedding and was SO accommodating to our guests! All of our guests had such a wonderful experience with him, and they kept him BUSY all night. At the end of the night, he even came up to me to ask if he could get me anything. Being really thirsty after dancing, I asked him for a Sprite and he insisted in pouring it into a special champagne flute for me. He was such a pleasure to work with, brought extra ice, had his whole station perfectly set up, and had a smile on all night. He made it a flawless experience for our guests and I'm so grateful! (Also, WONDERFULLY priced!) I'm SO glad we went with The Mobile Barkeep! More...

I found Justin here on Yelp and he was recommended to me through Thumbtack. He bartendered for my son's wedding reception and he was exceptional ! I had hired a vendor to being the liquor to to the venue. Justin was honest enough to tell me, he was over-charging me. So Justin gave me a list of what to buy and I got it. Justin helped to make my job easier and less overwhelming. He was professional and courteous and I greatly appreciated his expertise. I wholeheartedly recommend The Mobile Barkeep, if I could give him more stars I would !!! More...

We hired Justin for our outdoor wedding last week and he and his second bartender (his fiancée) did amazing!! They were very organized, friendly and speedy with their drink making. We had around 200 people and there was never a line at the bar! Justin was also easy to get ahold of before the event, and would respond quickly and provide lots of help, including unique cocktail suggestions! I would definitely hire them again for a big event!

I would definitely recommend hiring the Mobile Barkeep! I am so glad that I found Justin and his company for my event. I was helping plan a wedding and I was in charge of hiring a bartender. Justin responded promptly to every question that I had and was extremely helpful. He was very professional in the way he communicated and the way that he served at our event. Â He had a specific certification that was required by the city building where we had the reception. Justin arrived early, and brought everything to set up (for no extra cost he had a very nice bar with linens, and buckets, etc. he brought it all). The way he set up the bar looked very nice, and he had a great personality. Â I could go on and on, but most importantly, I'd just say that I would definitely hire him again and I would recommend him to my friends and family. More...

The Mobile Barkeep tended my daughters wedding in November. Â Owned and managed by Justin Clark. Â Justin is the most professional communicator from the time we connected via GigMasters to the end of the event. Â He is very thorough and put any jitters I had at ease with plenty of assurances. Â Justin was not able to tend our event as planned but he showed up early to set us up and make sure hisreplacement was ready to go. Â It went so smoothly and Sayaka was great. Â She easily interacted with the guests and kept the bar running. I will for sure use The Mobile Barkeep and Justin's team in the future! More...
