Booking basics
Mobile bartenders book by the date, not the walk-in — popular Saturdays (especially May–October) go months out, so inquire early with your date, venue, guest count, and whether you want a full package or dry hire. Most will hold a date with a deposit and a signed agreement.

From the reviews
We had a birthday celebration yesterday at my daughter’s home in Costa Mesa. I cannot say enough about how pleased I am with About Town Bartending. Very responsive, cordial, and professional from the start.
I recently hired About Town Bartending for my baby shower and the communication leading up to and service I received on the day of my event was top notch. Before my shower, I had many questions regarding timeline/set-up/drink options and ATB got back to me quickly every single time.
From start to finish (February 2020 - October 2021 due to the Pandemic) Travis Crivaro kept in touch with me concerning the details of my event. As the world shut down for an emergency. Travis assured me that once things were up and moving semi- normal to what we know now as normal...
I would absolutely recommend About Town Bartending if you are in the market for an experience team who will make your event flow effortlessly. We had two amazing bartenders Akria and Maria who went above and beyond to ensure our guest were happy with their alcoholic beverages.
Booking About Town Bartending for a wedding
Weddings come up for About Town Bartending — confirmed on their own site, so they'll know the rhythm of the day: cocktail hour hits all at once, then the bar settles into a steady hum until the last dance. Two numbers get your quote right. First, the staffing math: the standard rule is one bartender per 50–75 guests — so a 150-guest wedding usually means two to three bartenders, and going thin here is the classic cocktail-hour line mistake. Second, drinks per guest: plan on roughly two drinks in the first hour and one per hour after; a dry-hire bartender can turn that into an exact shopping list for your headcount so nothing runs out and nothing goes back to the store.

Corporate events with About Town Bartending
Reviews and the service's own materials mention corporate events at About Town Bartending — holiday parties, launches, client mixers. For office events, three things are worth settling on the first call: whether they carry the liquor liability insurance your building or venue requires, whether they can run a mocktail or zero-proof menu alongside the bar, and how invoicing works if your company needs a W-9 and net-30 terms.
