Roy is consistently fabulous. Between both professional and personal events, he is prompt, friendly, knowledgeable and so helpful. He will forever be our go-to bartender here in San Diego! We wrapped up a wonderful event last night for a dear friend's birthday party and Roy was a pleasure to work with, as always. His photos taken are always a treat and he is just such a kind and fun person. Thank you for everything, Roy! read more

We had the absolute pleasure of having Roy and RG Bar Services as our bar services at our wedding at the Japanese Friendship Garden. Roy was helpful throughout the whole process! From designing our 'his' and 'her' drinks, providing us the quantities that we needed to purchase to ensure a stocked bar, all the way to our day-of services where he made sure my wife and I were taken care of. Our guests loved his attitude and drinks, and we were so lucky to have his care. Definitely book Roy for any event! read more

I hired RG Bar for my 40th birthday party and from the very beginning, Roy was always very communicative and responsive. I can't even begin to count how many vendors wanted to set me up on sales calls or upsell me. Roy responded to my quote and worked with me on everything. Every suggestion he made was just that, a suggestion. I never felt pressured and truly just took it as him looking out for my event. I had a 90s theme and he worked with me on curating my signature drinks and gave me plenty of options to choose from. And when it came time to obtain everything he gave me a very handy purchase list to go off of. Roy and Misty were great at the actual event, and Roy kept seeking me out during the party to make sure I had a drink in my hand or didn't need anything. Roy also took pictures throughout the night and sent them all to me the very next day. They were both great and such a great asset to have! They kept the drinks flowing all night. Will definitely hire again in the future!!! read more

Roy was helpful from the beginning to the end of the event! I booked him for my sisters bachelorette party; We did a mixology cock/mock tails at her house. I was worried at first that it would be weird to have a male bartender for a bach, but he proved me wrong. He made everything so chill, relaxed, and FUN! Exactly what we wanted and more. I requested him to get the non-alcoholic ingredients (at an additional charge), and he went above by making us homemade blackberry juice for the event. Just everything was wonderful about Roy and his service. He was communicative, made everything tailored, arrived on time, & very knowledgable! read more

We hired RG Bar Services for our Hawaiian style wedding reception at the Club Room in Coronado. Roy is absolutely F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C. From the beginning, he was very friendly, responsive and informative, providing a list of supplies to purchase and letting us know how everything works. Roy bartended the event himself, even though it was his birthday, and he arrived early and had everything set to go in no time, including a Hawaiian style bar skirt. He made sure the bride & groom always had a drink and received rave compliments from our guests. As an extra perk, he took many pictures of the event which was great because we didn't have an official photographer. We highly recommend RG Bar Services. Thank you Roy (we Virgos have to stick together). read more

Planning a welcome party at Tower Beach Club at Mission Bay for my son's wedding from Kentucky was a bit difficult, but the best decision I made was hiring Roy as our bartender. Roy was so prompt answering calls and emails that I knew I was making the right choice in hiring RG Services. Through numerous emails during the months of planning Roy was there to help me with my drink shopping list. Day of the event arrives and there is Roy and Jason on time and quickly getting everything set up. They even helped to make sure my food and snacks were not running low since that was set up on the counter behind them. He reminded me throughout to relax and have fun which I needed. Now icing on the cake were the fantastic photos he took throughout the day and posted so I could share. You can't go wrong hiring Roy and his staff. read more

RG Bar Services was absolutely amazing for our November 2023 wedding! Roy was incredibly friendly and easy to work with - helping us figure out every part of our bar (signature cocktails, quantities, water, etc.).

We had Roy and a second bartender for our 140 person wedding, and they kept the drinks flowing all night long. We can't recommend Roy and the RG Bar Services team enough - thank you for helping make our day so special! read more

RG Bar Services - Bartenders Near Me

I used them for an event I was running. The bartenders were nice, but kept giving out drinks without collecting drink tickets or checking IDs, even though I kept reminding them. I called to express my concern to the owner (not asking for anything but just letting him know) but he did not take the feedback well and was extremely unprofessional about it. read more

We worked with RG bar Services for a graduation party for my husband. Hooper was assigned to us and did a phenomenal job! He was punctual, friendly, and personable - good vibes all the way around. He even took pictures when he had down time, and they were shared with us the next day. Roy, the owner, was quick with his responses to my questions and concerns prior to our event, which made me feel confident that we chose the right company. Highly recommend and we will be using them in the near future for our other events! read more

Fantastic service for our daughter's wedding. Kind, knowledgeable, friendly, modestly dressed staff. We also appreciated their diligence in making sure only guests who were 21+ were served alcohol.

Just want to give some vendor love to Roy Givon of RG Bar Services! He helped me out big time today as a fellow industry vendor. Firstly, he's an amazing person: knowledgeable, authentic, kind, good sense of humor and a worldly air of culture about his person, who has been nothing but a consummate professional at the many weddings I've performed alongside his services over the years. I always recommend him in the rare circumstance a DJ can refer bartenders. Now for the recent reason I have to sing his praises from the rooftops: I have a destination wedding this Saturday (my second pandemic-era wedding) for which the couple had questions regarding alcohol requirements / shopping list creation for their wedding, since they had to fire their caterer/bar services just TWO WEEKS prior to their wedding! (They've thankfully found an emergency caterer/bar). I try to help beyond just being a "DJ/MC", often taking on an unofficial partial coordination role and offering whatever assistance I can for my couples. While this was out of my wheelhouse, I reached out to someone I knew could help. Enter Roy. Roy offered so much incredible advice, thorough on his expertise and preemptively answering questions I did not even think to ask. And all because he's a genuine, kind person with a great heart. Like most of us, he's unfortunately been shutdown by COVID restrictions since March, but if you need anybody as a bartender for whichever gatherings will be allowed down the road, please consider Roy! Let this serve as a beacon of hope in this insane time we're experiencing. Don't think twice--reach out to him. He takes the time to get to know you and your goals, and tailor the experience exactly to what you want. You can rest assured you will have a stellar experience for your guests. read more

Roy with RG Bar Services is the absolute best! My wedding coordinator recommended him and I ended up using a different bartending service. A year later I was looking for a bartender for my husband's surprise 40th birthday party and Roy's prices couldn't be beat! He was great at communicating prior to the event and provided all the necessary insurance documentation the venue required. As soon as we arrived to the venue he went out of his way to help us set up- including tables, chairs and heavy lifting. He was organized, prepared and was totally engaged throughout the whole night. He also took lots of pictures and shared them the next day. Roy is a true professional. Book him for your next event. He makes party planning and entertaining a breeze! read more

RG Bar Services - We love RG Bar Services! - Bartenders Near Me

Such great bar services so personable and kind! They have a great attitude and poured us well. Safe to say we are happy customers

Terrible for private bar services. They are carding you at a private event to people who are clearly over age, for example 50+??? Well below the par for services I would expect. Just terrible, and talk about zero alcohol in the drinks, why are you skimping for an event. Then I could go on about the inexperienced bartenders as well. read more

Roy and his team made our wedding amazing! Not just for the guests but wedding party as well! The bartenders came on time, had great vibes and so damn efficient. Our signatures ran out by the end of cocktail hour!!! Hardly any lines. Roy also took photos throughout the event and shared them after. Great communication, competitive rates and wealth of knowledge! Look no further for a great bartender service! read more

Roy and his team at RG Bar Services were incredible! First, they were quick and efficient, so there was rarely a long wait for our 120 guests. Next, they hooked up the bridal party whenever we needed a drink, and were professional when a select few guests got out of hand. Roy also took some photos with his personal camera and shared them with us at the end of the night. The night felt like a whirlwind and it was such a joy to see those moments captured by Roy. read more

Roy recently bartended my wedding I had said there were going to be about 85 people, which had RSVPed and only about 40 showed up. :( BUT Roy was absolutely phenomenal. He showed up on time, was very thorough about what was needed, answered all of my questions happily and worked with me as far as my payment went. My guests really enjoyed him and every time I looked over, Roy and his assistant were dancing and having a great time with us!! I would highly recommend him for any special event you have. He makes it so easy! read more

A high end bartending service at a great cost. Working with Roy and his team gives you on-point, fast, attentive communication prior, during and after the event. The bartenders were so wonderful, on-time, professional, left our venue sparkling. We had two great bartenders serve our wedding and they added so much to our event. Our guests enjoyed our drinks as we were able to provide our own alcohol and mixers and the ease of the team to serve what we asked made for such a smooth paty. read more

Best bartenders ever!! The wedding was absolutely flawless. We loved waking up the next morning with photos from Roy in our email. Getting to relive the event through photos was something special that a bartender definitely doesn't have to do! The bar never had a line and they kept everyone happy! 10/10 would recommend read more

RG Bar was fantastic! We hired them for our wedding on 9/9/2022 and the day turned out perfect. He was able to provide us with easy instructions on what type and how much alcohol we should provide since we were bringing in our own. He gave us ideas for His and Hers drinks and they were a HIT at our wedding. We've had so many guests reach out and tell us the drinks were great. He also took photos during the wedding of friends and family at the bar. We did not know he was going to do this and what a wonderful surprise to have these photos the next day! 100% recommend! read more

Full disclosure: This was my favorite vendor of my wedding last weekend. Reasons being: Customer Service- absolutely the best around. Roy, the owner, has no more than a 24 hour turn around/response time, which is more than stellar in my experience in the wedding planning this past year. Sometimes, it was within the next few hours following! I've told Roy all these fabulous things already, but I need to share my recommendation to everybody, because I felt so good about my bar services at my wedding due to this company! RG Bar Services was referred to me through my good friend, Trish S. who is an expert event planner (for Yelp particularly:) ) as she knew what type of bartending services I needed for my venue. I had my wedding at the Museum of Photographic Arts in Balboa Park. RG Bar was very experienced in the museums and other venues in the area, as well as the MOPA itself. It was very helpful to have their level of expertise when my venue required certain documents from my bartender. Upon initially contacting RG Bar and receiving their response, I immediately felt secure and completely stress-free in this area of my wedding. This is HUGE, considering everything that a bride needs to worry about, and juggle throughout the many months of planning. Roy and his team were so amazing the night of the event as well. The friendliest people-- you feel like they're your friends, who ensure you have a good time, and that you don't worry about a thing. In addition, I was beyond impressed with their professionalism, and how easy and fun they were to work with, not just with me, but also with my day of coordinator, the venue event staff, and other vendors that night. Roy is so incredibly helpful and thorough, and I cannot thank him enough for being an expert in this industry, because it was the one thing about my wedding (a huge part of any wedding might I add) that I did not stress about. I highly recommend using RG Bar, and I cannot wait to cross paths with them again in the future. I may throw another huge party just so I can hire them. :) read more

Roy and RG Bar Services is the best. Roy responds promptly via email to all inquiry and questions. He and his bartenders are so friendly and professional. They make sure to set up well before the event starts, and they were kindly stayed a half hour past their contracted end time because the event was still going strong. I also love that he takes pictures of the event for us as well! I've been using RG Bar for over five years for 150+ people departmental events at UC San Diego and plan to convince everyone I know to do the same. read more

Roy and the staff at RG can honestly not be beat when it comes to service and price. My wife and I got married March 14th, right before the world somewhat fell apart and Roy was nothing but fantastic. He was prompt with his responses to any questions I had for him and extremely helpful with shopping tips. The team he sent us on our big day (Erin and Ashley) were beyond amazing. They were both so attentive and fun and sweet. My wife and I owe you all a huge gratitude for how above and beyond you went to make our day as special as it was! read more

I love working with Roy and the RG Bar team. They are so hard working, thoughtful and fun to work with as a wedding planner.

Roy and his team did a fantastic job managing the bar at our wedding. We got married at the San Diego Botanic Garden in Encinitas and RG Bar has worked that venue a lot, so they were experts. In the end, our event went off without a hitch and our guests all went home safely and happily. Roy himself was so helpful leading up to the event. He was always quick to respond to email questions and requests. He really helped us zero in on how much alcohol we needed and what to serve. We wanted to go with his and hers signature cocktails and he was able to offer professional advice that helped us make our selections (mojito for her, bourbon mule for him). The event itself was well executed. Roy and his staff were on time and well prepared. When the alcohol was two hours late being delivered they adjusted well and still had everything ready in time for the guests. Nobody ever knew. The bartenders were friendly and personable, the lines were short or non-existent, and every seemed to enjoy heading to the bar for a drink. Just what you want in a wedding bar. Not one guest drank too much which is a testament to the bartenders as much as the guests. One personal touch that we really enjoyed, Roy himself brought a camera and took a variety of candid shots which he shared in a Facebook album. We got some great pics of friends and family from inside the bar looking out as they ordered drinks. Unique photos! Roy also caught some late night photos of the dance floor long after the wedding photographers had gone home. Again, priceless! Overall, we highly recommend Roy and RG Bar to handle your licensed alcohol serving needs. read more
