We were invited to a wedding and I had heard how nicely it had been updated. Holy moley! The recent renovation has completely transformed the space, creating a stylish and welcoming atmosphere. It's the perfect setting for a special occasion. The food is absolutely delicious, with a menu that offers something for everyone. Each dish was flavorful and beautifully presented. The cocktail hour was phenomenal. The service is exceptional as well. The staff is friendly, attentive, and really makes you feel like a valued guest. Shadowbrook delivers a top-tier experience from start to finish. I can't imagine how much a wedding costs here but I highly recommend taking a look if you're looking for a venue!

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.

Examples include how to do things right in order to prevent fines from the health department and mitigate the chance of making customers sick, appropriate garnishes, glassware, dishwashing, tips on how to optimize bartending efficiency, how to deal with trouble makers and the form of documentation required to protect the business. Bryan is a wonderful teacher and a really fun guy to be around. I would highly recommend this class / social club to anyone interested in any form of bartending. Whether you are a business owner looking to open a bar, someone who is trying to get into bartending as a career or hobby, or an experienced bartender looking to refine your cocktail craft, you would definitely benefit from this class.

It started off with provided finger foods such as cheese, grapes, and crackers with a glass of wine. Then we choose 3 drinks to make. All the material is provided and the instructors demonstrate how to craft the drink. The great part is that there isn't any limit on how you want to make it... 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.

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.

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

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.

Though I am an introvert at heart, I appreciate being pushed a little outside my comfort zone and being put at the bar to mix drinks.

The class itself, 15 minutes of demonstration then the owner did his own thing. Alcohol was certainly not top shelf liquor and there was no adjusting the recipe. Adding sprite to every cocktail when seltzer would have been a great alternative was out of the question. There was no substitutions available. Needless to say, for the price that was paid per person, we could have purchased premium liquor, watched a you tube video on how to measure (i certainly dont measure out my alcohol!) and done this at home. In response to Rob's comments, I didnt bash, I explained my experience. It was classified as a mixology class, not a tasting as Rob rebutted. There is certainly a difference. A few accommodations and my review would have been different!
