The Bar
Our bar services offer a selection of craft cocktails, fine wines, and premium spirits, ensuring your guests enjoy a sophisticated and memorable drinking experience. Our craft cocktail menu is curated by Brian Van Flandern, a world-renowned Michelin Three-star mixologist, acclaimed by FOOD NETWORK as "America’s Top Mixologist!" As the former head mixologist for Chef Thomas Keller at PER SE Restaurant in NYC, Van Flandern applied the principles of ‘flavor profiling’ to cocktails, creating well-balanced, food-friendly drinks that quickly garnered international attention and awards.
Van Flandern's creativity and reputation as an industry influencer have established him as a leader in mixology. After ranking as the number two mixologist in the world at the Bols Mix Masters Championship, he founded CREATIVE COCKTAIL CONSULTANTS, designing craft cocktail lists and training bartenders globally. He has made numerous media appearances, including BAR RESCUE, THE EARLY SHOW (WNBC), DIARY OF A FOODIE (PBS/Gourmet Magazine), FOODOLOGY (Cooking Channel), THE RED EYE (Fox & Friends), and THE BAREFOOT CONTESSA (Food Network). His expertise ensures our skilled mixologists create drinks that perfectly complement your menu and add a special touch to your celebration.

FAQs

Dry hire means you rent our services and equipment and we provide the mixers, garnishes and ice, but alcohol is a separate purchase made by the client. In DC, dry hire is illegal, and we, as ABRA-licensed caterers, must provide both alcohol and food. In VA and MD, we offer dry hire services, creating a shopping list for you, which saves you money compared to an all-inclusive package.
