I was looking for a highly rated, knowledgeable school where I could learn bartending and mixology skills and laws. The Southern California Bartending School was the perfect place for me to learn with the goal of preparing for a weekend job as a bartender. Marisol and Riahna were excellent instructors - their years of industry experience were a huge asset to me as a newcomer. Laura, the school owner, developed a tremendous course with a thorough, but easy to use book/manual and online videos with lots of tips and tricks. The combination of online classes plus in-person, hands on classes were the perfect mix to learn the material. As someone who works full-time, I appreciated the hybrid (online and in-person mix) and evening hour classes. I needed to get this done quickly so I can start looking for a job so the two- week class was perfect for me. However, this was no walk in the park. The instructors want to make sure you are prepared to be a professional bartender and prepare you to work in a variety off venues. Because of this, there was A LOT of material to learn and the expectations were high. You MUST study if you want to pass! Lots of flash cards and Quizlet helped me at home with memorization and the speed drills were great to improve my knowledge of products, drinks, accuracy, and speed. The school also is well connected within the serving and events community and I appreciate that part of the class teaches you tips on how to get a job/experience in a variety of venues. I look forward to landing a job and continuing to grow in my knowledge. If you are serious about becoming a bartender, this is absolutely the best school to attend.

Amazing course, great instructor, fun atmosphere! Mari’s teaching style was a perfect balance of educational yet practical. She gave useful tips on how to memorize recipes but also taught tricks on how to apply the learnings in real life. 100% feel ready to go out and bartend now.

PS. You might encounter Mari’s dog, Bella, who is an absolute treat to have in the class. Whenever we need a break, she’s always ready for a petting session ?

If you’re looking for a sign to register, this is it!

I was recommended this course from a friend of mine that couldn’t talk enough about this school. I really enjoyed my experience here! I learned so much and feel very confident starting my bartending career. Riahna was an excellent instructor and gave us so many tips and tricks. I really appreciated hearing her insight into the trade. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone wanting to be a good bartender or just wanting to have fun and learn many valuable skills.

Had a wonderful experience at this school! Both Marisol and Riahna were a big help in teaching me the knowledge I need to be prepared for bartending outside. 10/10 recommend going here if you’re interested in getting a bartending education and certification!
