July 28, 2025Endless compliments on how great Brad was. Drinks were made well, he was friendly, kind, and was just the best! He came early to set up, gave me a shopping list, conferred with me about signature drink ideas, brought his own bar and supplies, and even was cleaning up plates and tidying up when no one was there for a drink. Don’t hesitate to hire Brad for your party! You will NOT regret it!

June 9, 2025Hiring Brad to bartend my annual garden party was hands down the best decision I’ve made since marrying my husband. In past years, I’d run myself ragged trying to refill drinks while also trying to be a good host. But this year? Brad changed everything.
He arrived early to set up and I’m pretty sure he even helped my husband with the tents when rain was in the forecast. He stayed past his scheduled time to make sure guests got a proper last call and the compliments haven’t stopped since.
Everyone raved about how friendly and professional he was and several guests said it felt like we’d known him for years. My only regret is not taking any photos!
This was my first time bringing in outside help for one of our parties and I’m so glad I chose Brad. He made the whole night smoother, more enjoyable, and way more memorable.

July 8, 2024We were so happy that we found Brad to bartend our party. Not only was he a great bartender. He really went out is his way to make sure we were happy and even brought drinks to our guests. Hard to find someone like Brad who works so hard and came with everything ready to go. I highly recommend highering him for your event !!

June 25, 2024We hired Nomads & Nectars for my wife's 40th bday party. She loves Mezcal so we asked for a cocktail list based and this and it was excellent! The drinks were expertly crafted and the service from the staff was very professional. We will certainly be using them for future events
