THE SAN FRANCISCO SCHOOL OF BARTENDING

What do you actually learn here?

"I like that they throw you right behind the bar",
"Grabbing your Vodka, Gin, Rum, Triple Sec."
"You get into it right away."

Lots of it is hands on motion and muscle memory. Moving like a bartendier. We have lots of drills here for you so that you make a lot of drinks in a short period of time. The practicalities that are unique to bartending become second nature to you. You don't have to think about them to too great an extent when you get behind a real bar. Lots of our students get jobs all over the bay area.

--"I'm very interested in the Mixology track..."

We've taken what we believe is a way for you to choose your own path. So you can take our curriculum and go whatever direction you want with it.

"One of the good things the school provided me with was the mixology class, which really intrigued me and got me into the history of mixology & basically into cocktail bartending where I'm at now".

"Infusion is basically the new hottest night club. You get people from celebrities to other nightclub owners... The school really helped prepare me to get behind a bar here."

We cover customer service and cash handling, some POS machine work here. We also go over wine service and beer service, down to actually cutting real garnishes here at the school.

We have incorporated a flair class, or they can take our advanced mixology course. There is an employment workshop that you can take advantage of.

"With Shawn for example, he helps you put a resume put together."

We also have a get behind a real bar night here at the school we call SFSOB LIVE.

"Tonight we got a chance to bartend. I think we did cool." "I think we did amazing!" "You get to get behind a real bar, pour real drinks for real people, cash handling, it's just unbelievable." "Once the ice is broken, it's all good." "Yeah, word."

"All the teachers are really helpful and understanding."
"And the help and support that they provide around finding a job, around specific skills you might need help with, they provide that for you."

We take all the time and effort necessary in making us as good as we need to be, to make sure that you're as good as you need to be behind a real bar.

  • I Hope To Learn All I Can And Just Move On With Hands On Experience....

  • @karakorak ...I tend to agree. You could easily get a job at any bar, just go to the same bar consistently and chat it up with the bar tender, then ask if there's a bar back position and move your way up from there. Easy.

  • @theguitarexpert71 You pay to be a student, and there are no places to live at this type of school so you will have to find your own place to live. You must be 21.

  • Bar school should not contain a juggling class, passed off as a phoney, so-called "flair workshop". This is a cheap gimmick that excites the bartender and tricks up a video like jump edits do, but it is not real life and it distracts from the serious business of customer service, knowing how to mix and pour drinks correctly, and maintaining a clean and tidy bar.

    Also, flagged as spam (mass advertising).

  • Wow!I want to learn how to make drinks!! :D
