Abc Bartending Schools

I LOVE ABC BARTENDING!!!
Honestly, I never thought I would actually have enrolled and began training to add to the personal party! It took 5 years to finally get it together…
Thanks, Max… you are the business! I’m going to continue practicing… I’ve got some bottles to practice my pour (ing) and my flash cards are nearly done. Your patience and enthusiasm compliment your cool ‘tude. Sharing is caring!
If anyone wants to get it going… Call Max or Kim! Flexible time scheduling, unlimited coaching, it’s worth the money. Heck, #winning! #fundamentalfoundation #ontherocks
Marvelous Marv

I’m finishing up my 2 weekend course and I must say I am beyond impressed with my progress. I went into this with very little knowledge of making drinks, and by day 4 I now know 70 drinks! This class really breaks down every aspect of bartending. Of course making drinks, but also money handling, state regulations, dealing with day to day situations, history of liquors, beer and wine. It really offers a full 360 of what I feel you should know if you’re looking to be a bartender.
My instructor Max really knows how to teach! His method of teaching the class is superb. His laid back demeanor really makes you feel at ease and sets the tone for the class. He teaches you many different ways to learn the drinks and a bunch of hands on experience. Throughout the class he really breaks down what to expect while on the job, proper bar etiquette and even offers assistance with building your resume.
I really feel that I’m getting my money’s worth with this course. I would highly recommend ABC to anyone looking to become a bartender or has always wanted to learn to mix up some drinks!
Ask for Max’s class when registering!

I have been wanting to take bartending courses for years now and in hopes to finding a good school I of course referred to Unilocal.ABC bartending has been a great experience. My instructor Max was really dope. He is very informative and gives you ways to remember the drinks which is very helpful. What’s great about this place is that even if you don’t pass the first time, you can always go back to practice and retake until you do which is worth every penny. All in all you should definitely consider this school and be sure to get Max as your instructor you won’t regret it!

This was an awesome class. It is reasonably priced and a really fun way to learn a trade and meet new people. I took the class with Max and he was incredibly helpful. He’s a smart guy who knows what he’s talking about and a very experienced bartender. I never thought I’d be able to learn seventy drinks in two weeks, but Max makes it easy. Overall great class and I hope you all take it!

Max was so helpful, I took him as a refresher course. (It had been years since I bartender and forget damn near everything) he worked with me so well I was able to land a job a few days later. Thanks Max!!!

I thought this class was great. Low-​key, stress-​free environment. no hassles to register and pay. The head instructor, Max, is personable, experienced, honest and fun. Classes are a good blend of discussion and hands-​on practice that transformed me from a place of no-​confidence behind the bar, to feeling more comfortable, capable and efficient in that role. I highly recommend it’s an intro class!

Abc bartending school is the best!
The instructor Max is very patient and super friendly, He definitely will get you ready for a high volume bartending gig. Not only will he teach you everything you need to know, but he will also help you revise your resume! I give this class 5 stars

MAX ROCKS!!!
Awesome instructor who keeps it interesting and fun the entire time.
I attended a 2 weeks course back in August and didn’t get to tending a bar until recently. Since I was out of practice I had forgotten how to make several drinks… YIKES! This school is so awesome because you can return to the school at anytime to practice pouring drinks and brush up on your skills.
Great school!
Excellent investment!

This is a great course and teaches you everything you need to know about bartending. The high points: (1) reasonably priced (2) a variety of hours to make it convenient (3) this location’s instructor, Max, is a great teacher and gives you lots of tips on how to remember drink recipes. Plus he’s cool and tells interesting stories (4) their method of teaching insures you thoroughly learn the drink recipes and (5) once you’ve paid your initial tuition you can come back anytime to practice or even take the entire course again.
A GREAT VALUE FOR THE MONEY!
Their method of teaching is really good — you have to learn 70 drinks by the final exam! but it’s reasonably easy because they group the drinks into categories which feature similar drinks… so you learn 8 or 10 drinks at a time but they’re variations on a theme, which makes it easier to remember. You also get a lot of time to practice pouring drinks, which reinforces the lesson. The instructor first demonstrates the drinks (visual) and you can follow along in your book (reading). Then you pour the drinks for an hour (tactile). The instructor suggests you make flash cards of each drink to quiz yourself (repeating the drink recipe out loud). This covers all of the different ways that people learn. It was really thoughtful and cool.

This was a great experience, the instructors were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. It was also great that they were understanding of work schedules. Max was a really cool instructor and offer lots of tips regarding the industry. I’m really excited about getting started as a bartender!

Had a blast learning the ins and outs of bartending at ABC Bartending School. The instructor Max is amazing! He is very passionate and has high standards for his students! Max has a great sense of humor and has lots of insightful stories about the industry and what to expect, how to stay out of trouble and make the most money. The classes are fun and all the students I met were a blast to make drinks with! Last but not least, once you finish this course they DON’T leave you hanging, they offer bartending resume guidance and a great job placement service! You can even come back afterwards at any time to refresh your skills (perfect before an upcoming interview!)
If you are looking for a fun environment to build a very solid bartending foundation, look no further then Max at ABC Bartending!

Amazing class! The instructor is very hands on with small class sizes. Hiiiiighly recommend

The class is fun, no time waste, max is very friendly nice guy, I never meet kim but she sounds very nice on the phone. she make u feel very comfortable, and everyone in class is also nice, max is very helpful he answer every question you have or something that u don’t understand. He is there to help you, this is one of my best experience, I go to the school dint know
Anything about Bartending or drinks, i got to learn a lot and I’m still learning. Get in ready for my test.

This school was an awesome experience! If anybody is looking into getting into bartending, then this is the place to start. Max the instructor is an amazing guy. He knows his stuff and has
a great knowledge of bartending. The class I attended was an evening class for two weeks. There is plenty of parking and easy to find. I highly recommend this place, as this has been one of the best schools I’ve ever intended.

I had «some» experience as a bartender years ago and absolutely loved the job. So I thought why not get back into the field again. Considering it was years ago when I was a bartender, I felt that in order for me to gain my confidence back in this, I needed «major recapping» of how to make ALL those drinks. I telephoned ABC Bartending Schools (the Sepulveda Blvd., Los Angeles location) and spoke at length with Kim (the office manager) who was so kind, helpful and candid. There were no hidden surprises in the costs to attend and they have schools located everywhere. The other benefit about this school is that they include in the cost — «brush-​up» class (es). This was a big plus for me because I also own a house in Florida and I would be allowed to attend their schools on the east coast as well. I immediately signed up for the 2-​week course. The teacher, Max, was…“meant for teaching bartending.” He knows his stuff — «an absolute genius!» He keeps the students engaged in learning by making it fun and interesting AND listens to each students response and will help with any area you fall short.
I highly recommend this school to anyone out there that is looking to get into bartending –or– even just for your own benefit of how to make cool trendy drinks with your friends. You will learn a wealth of information and walk away with a «skill» — better yet– a skill that you can make great money while having fun at the same time. It doesn’t get much better than that!

Just graduated the weekend class and it was dope. I honestly feel that max and raven do such a great job preparing you to pass the class! It’s so much fun and would recommend it to anyone advanced or beginning to the wide world of bartending! Not only did I pass but max continues to help me w jobs and private event advise he truly is a awesome person who cares about his students new and old!!! abc is the way to go!

This school is absolutely amazing! Max is a great instructor he really puts effort into teaching you but he does it in a laid back way that does not overwhelm you he does it in a manner that you enjoy learning the drinks. I researched many schools before choosing one but I ended up choosing ABC because it caught my attention & I’m so glad I chose it. The course is 2 weeks not a lot of time but Max gives so many little tricks to rememberung the drinks that you don’t really stress. I highly and I mean highly recommend flash cards if you take this course the help soooo much & pay once & ABC is a lifetime membership haven’t been a bartender in a while that’s okay go to any ABC school and pour for free as a remember course I highly recommend this school over any othe. Thanks for everything Max you are fhr best!

This is my first review on Unilocal!I really like my experience at ABC bartending school. Max is a supper cool and funny guy. I learnt so much from him. I highly recommended his class. And we have after parties as well! So much fun!

Really great class and best time spent. I had Max as an intructor and this man really really knows his stuff, he’s a excellent teacher. He even has the best little acronyms and phrases for you to remember ingredients in cocktail recipes… because there’s alot to remember. I had already had a few years experience in bartending but I wanted to get certified just as an added bonus for my résumé and speaking of résumés, they even assist you with that as well. You pay the one rate and you get soooo much from this class, with a lifetime «membership» you can even come back and refresh your memory, practice on the cocktail and not have to pay another dime, it’s money well spent, trust me. So if you’re looking for a bartending school to go and get certified look no further, this is the place you need to be.

Had an amazing experience with an amazing instructor. Max was so cool and patient with all of us. He really taught us in details how to be a great bartender and how to be ready out on the field. Thank you so much Max & ABC! I’ll be recommending to anyone who’s interested!
