I really love the professionalism of this bar tending school. I am really big on customer service and being treated like a person. I got that from the front door and throughout the whole course. And did I forget to mention with the skills that they taught me I GOT A JOB a week later at Friday's. I am so grateful. Thanks Instructor Kim.

I had a great time at OBA. I was very impressed with the skill level of the instructors and I loved their stories. What I really loved is that they gave me personal attention when learning my recipes and counts. I went in for a trial class and sign up on the spot. I just graduated 2 weeks ago and I got a JOB. Thank you so much

Great Investment!. I have wanted to bartend for quite sometime and after taking this class I fully capable of having a successful career in the industry. Not only did I learn how to create a wide range of drinks but I also learned in depth about the variety and differences of ingredients that go in to the process (liqueurs, garnishes,etc.) in addition to the history about them as well. Before this class I would dabble in creating alcoholic beverages among friends, but now I can actually say I know what I'm doing!

I know more than the "veteran" bartenders where I work!!. I highly recommend Orlando Bartending Academy! I've always wanted to be a bartender and learn how to make cocktails, but was putting it off, always saying I didn't have the time and what-not. I finally broke down and signed up for the Full Time 40 hour week-long class.

Hands down the best investment I've ever made. Not only did I learn more than I ever could have on my own, but it was the most fun I've ever had in "school" by far!! Instructor Kim and T are the BEST and have plenty of real-world experience to pass on.

Not only was I able to get a Bartending job right out of school because I had this on my resume, but as it turns out, I know more recipes by heart than the other "veteran" bartenders!! I have regulars that come and ask for me specifically because they know I'm the only one that makes them their drink the right way. And let me tell you, that's a fantastic feeling!!

I can tell you enough about Orlando Bartending Academy. Just go and sign up already and follow your dreams! I did, and it's working out beautifully for me!

Best Investment!!. This has been an excellent experience! Fun Social setting meet people & network. Classes are great very enjoyable and they get down to business without making it redundant or null. Instructors are the real deal with yrs of experience and great personalities to match. I did the 2 week course 40hrs, they are very flexible and work with you for times and availability; and even after you graduate your free to come and practice your new found skills anytime & maybe even pick up some new tricks too. If your on the fence about it let me be the first to tell you that its worth the time and money and if your committed they help you with your resume and placing you in a great job. Give it a shot!

Go to Orlando Bartending Academy!. I had a great experience at the Orlando Bartending Academy! I now know how to make more drinks than I can count, brands, types of liquors and liqueurs, and how to set up a bar. The owners/instructors Kim and Tee made it fun. I took the accelerated course- 40 hours in one week- and feel more than ready to tend bar. I highly recommend OBA to anyone looking to learn how to mix drinks professionally!

Great Visit!. Hello Mike,

I was in Orlando on Saturday with the intention of looking at two different bartending schools, yours included. I took the day off and went down (hailing from Deltona and I can't express enough how impressed with your school I am just from that one visit. The instructor (I am a little embarrassed to admit that I can not remember her name) was fun and friendly and made sure to give me his full attention and answered my questions, despite having a classroom full of students. I had the pleasure of listening in on a few of his lessons and he was absolutely hilarious! What a great impression he made on me about your establishment! I am completely new to bartending, having only worked in restaurants a few times before and never behind the bar, but I was so confident when I left my visit yesterday that taking the course at Orlando Bartending School would give me the proper tools that I would need to be a fantastic bartender that I did not even bother to look at the other school! I just filled out my registration form and I can't wait to begin my class at the end of January! Thank you for allowing me to drop in and visit like that, I am truly looking forward to learning with you!

Sincerely,

Mary D.
