The only negative thing.... 9/6/2004

I AGREE! This is such a fun course! What a way to meet people! But appart from the fun side of it, the school REALLY, REALLY, REALLY does teach you everything about bartending and then some! You never have time to get bored. I had bartended before taking this class, mostly beer and shots; however, I was amazed with what I learned. I really did not expect much help with finding a job, as I know from past experience it is just a matter of walking into bars and asking. However, I was VERY SURPRISED at the job placement services this school offered. They even sent me on a party before graduating (I earned half of my tuition back). I got a job working weekends through them, making over $500. I am more than happy! Thanks NYBS staff, I Will recommend you to everyone. P.S. James thanks for the tips!!!! Pros: Friendly, Job Placement, Trendy looking Cons: , None, None more

#1 School in New York 9/6/2004

After a long search for the right bartending school I ended up at the New York Bartending School. I was simply the best school in every way. It was clean, big, fully equipped and had a great atmosphere. I suggest anyone interested in attending a school check out their free intro class first; it really helped a lot! Gave me the info to allow me to compare other schools! The training was intense, the staff fun and so more profesional than the other schools, and there was never any pressure to sign up. And oh yes! They found ne a job!!!!!!! I give these guys 5 stars***** Pros: Clean & Equipped, FUN FUN FUN, Best Job Placement Cons: , None, None more

Pros & Cons 9/6/2004

I whole heartedly with the last posting. This school simple rocks! SOOOO much fun; never a dull moment! The curriculum is amazing. I did actually take a bartending course in Florida 3 years ago, but never got a job and I paid more than I did at this school. After checking out all the schools in Manhattan I decided on NYBS. WOW! Am I glad I did. The training is amazing! The staff is amazing! The guest bars help you before going on interviews. I was given 6 interviews the first weekAweek - I landed a job on my 4th. The job placement service is SUPERB! Rema does not know what he is talking about! (or he is from another school). Pros: Excellent Training, Excellent Staff, Superb Job Placement more

Not Sugar Coated 9/1/2004

Best School in the City! 8/31/2004

The instructors were experienced bartenders and great teachers - very patient and encouraging to everyone in the class. They taught us so much at a good pace. The class was so much fun, everyone was able to be themselves. The director was nice and down to earth. The school is so upbeat and you can meet a lot of great people to make friends and hang out with them. The BEST school in the city! Pros: Great Teachers, Great Looking School, Great atmosphere more

Pros @ Cons 8/31/2004

I researched bartending schools for a month before I finally took the plunge. I found the NYBS to be way ahead of the rest in everything from training to job placement assistance. I do not quite understand the posting in regards to the job placement. I found it to be outstanding! The website listing was updated on a daily basis. The job placement director was available whenever I needed her. The guest bartending was terrific; what better way to get some actual experience, serving real customers real alcohol! I thought they did a TERRIFIC job in placing students. All the people I became friends with in my class are ALL working - including me! more

Worth Every Cent! 8/31/2004

NYBS was well worth the $695. My sister went to another school and only paid $350. She says it was not worth it. She did not learn half the drinks I lernt at NYBS. I prefer to spend $700 and be guaranteed the best professional training. My instructor was terrific - very attentive, very real, very clear...really knew what he was talking about. Pros: Attentive, Professional, Very clean more

Great Instruction and job placement 8/31/2004

The instuction and the staff at the school are great. And they do follow through with their job placement program. I now have a job at Houston's on 54th and 3rd ave that the school put me in touch with. I probably went to 7 or 8 interviews before getting this one and all the bartending test that were administred the school prepared me for. You just have to put yourself out there. You have to be on the ball and very consistent. The job placement program provides you the location of bar and the rest is up to you. Thank you NewYork Bartending School for job placement and confidence. more

Really Good Job Placement 8/30/2004

I took the course at New York Bartending School three weeks ago and I have to say the training and job placement assistance was excellent. I found that the couple of nights of guest bartending that I did truly helped me. These guest bartending gigs are not about making money but about getting your feet wet. I also found that Brandy (job placement director) spent hours with me going over my resume and job hunting and interviewing skills. I was lucky to get a job on my third interview. My friend who took the class with me also found a job soon after completing the course, also through Brandy. I do thank the KOOL staff at the New York Bartending School for everything. This is an unbelievable school with an unbelievable staff that truly DO care about you. Thank you again from tha bottom of my tip cup!!!! more
