Jonathan was so responsive and helpful. Continual communication, including giving me fun suggestions for holiday specialty drinks.
Very reasonable cost also.
Our guests enjoyed their experience and we would definitely hire him back again. You won’t be disappointed!

January 29, 2018Surprise 40th birthday party
Jonathan and Guy were fantastic.
Prior to the event the communication was efficient and they didn’t miss a detail to have me prepared to host a part of 70 people. They arrived early to set up, and kept up with a party full of guests who enjoy their cocktails. All of the guests raves about their service and professionalism. My husband was the guest of honor and said every time his drink was getting empty there they were with a new one for him like they were keeping tabs on him the whole night, which I thought was amazing considering how many other guests they had to keep up with. I highly recommend The Bar Is Open for any event.

Wow, Jonathan & Guy were amazing. They helped me come up with some great specialty drinks for my party. They did everything I asked for and way more. They were fun, came early & stayed late and made everything so easy. All of my guests were so happy. I am about to book them again for another party in a few months.
