Wedding Reception•Reviewed on December 19, 2017•From Highland Park, IL
If you want to have a dream wedding and not worry about a thing when it comes to serving your guests their drinks, then you need to hire Classic Cocktails By Scott! I had Mike, Eddie, and Nelson at our wedding. They were AMAZING. They took care of our guests so well. Always had a smile on their faces and were so respectful. Not once did my now husband and I have to worry about drinks. Scott gave us a shopping list for our alcohol and we had plenty leftover. We ended up returning some of it even! Thank you so much for helping create the wedding of our dreams!!

It was a pleasure to help make your wedding day a fun and exciting day. Mike, Eddie and I had a great time. Nelson, Owner, Classic Cocktails By Scott

Scott and Beth were such a joy to work with, the level of professionalism was impressive as well! They were so accommodating to any special requests made and went above and beyond to help in other areas outside of bartending services! Highly recommend to anyone looking for bartending services, their prices are low but you will not be sacrificing quality!

After reading reviews, we were quite confident about our decision to make this booking, but Scott exceeded all expectations! Scott was by far the best bartender we have ever hired for our events. I already booked him for next year's Oscar party. An awesome experience!

Wedding•Reviewed on August 31, 2015•From Homer Glen, IL
We hired Scott for our wedding very last minute because our previous person bailed out. Not only did Scott agree to take us on last minute, but he went the extra mile to make our event amazing. From naming our drinks to confirming that I had enough liquor for our guests and even helping clean up and personally serve the wedding party, Scott and Deanna did absolutely everything in their power to make things special for us. Our guests all commented about the extraordinary service and everyone wants to hire Scott for their next event. Words cannot describe how grateful we are for their efforts! I promise you will never find anyone better.Thanks to Scott and Deanna!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 4, 2017•From Chicago, IL
I will use Classic Cocktails in the future! I had a bartender and assistant for my party of 75 people. They were early set-up beyond my expectations, served the crowd fast and friendly. The drinks were the tastiest cocktails around. They cleaned up as the night went and took care of maintaining my food buffet. Trash was taken out all through the night. My guests all gave them complements. They were amazing!!!! Caitlin and Deanna are the best!

We had an excellent experience with Classic Cocktails By Scott. Scott, the owner, was professional, knowledgeable and very timely with responses. Having never hired a bartender for a party, I relied on his expertise and he stepped me through the entire process. On the day of, as promised, Caitlin arrived not just on time, but even a bit early to get set up. She was sociable, welcoming and my wife and I could tell she was genuinely excited to pour drinks that night. She did not disappoint. We had an absolute blast and we owe it in large to Caitlin. Bottom line, I would absolutely use this service again.

Nicky helped out with our Christmas party last night and made it super enjoyable for our guests and for me! Everyone loved the special seasonal drinks, and it was great to have help cleaning up cups and bottles throughout the evening. I will absolutely use Classic Cocktails by Scott for our next big party.

Scott was fantastic to work with it. He was always available prior to the event. He was up for the challenge. And finally on site, he was extremely helpful. He allowed us to enjoy the party and he took care of all the details. All of our guests raved about him as well. I hope to use him in the future.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on November 7, 2017•From Libertyville, IL
I am really happy with the service provided by Classic Cocktails. Booking and planning was all very simple and low stress. They were very helpful in coming up with a drink menu and a shopping list, although there ended up being too much of some drinks and we very quickly ran out of others. We had to run out and buy more than they told us for some stuff, and then returned a bunch of some other stuff... but I'd imagine it is hard to predict in advance which drinks will be popular on any given day with a particular crowd. Overall it all worked out great and our guests seemed very happy. The price was very reasonable too, which we loved of course.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on December 17, 2017•From Wilmette, IL
We were not happy with our experience with classic cocktails by Scott. They were very unorganized and did not arrive with the correct mixers for our specialty cocktails and failed to be able to make basic drinks like manhattans. When I let the owner know that we were not satisfied, he did offer an apology but did not offer to take anything off of our bill. I would not recommend them.
:
We can provide all email threads showing what client was supposed to have and the email where she stated everything went great.
As for our bartender being late. Bartenders are to arrive 1 hr to 45 min before event. Bartender was there within that time. Setup is NEVER charged to client As for MIXERS. We provide a list of the items she needed to have which included Sweet Vermouth. The Client did not provide the Sweet Vermouth which is for a Manhattan. Bartender did find a bottle but the bottle had just enough for one Manhattan. As far as the Mint we dropped the ball but our bartender went out to get it and was back before the event started.

Our bartender was very nice but seemed to have limited knowledge about cocktails (scotch, Negroni). He was also dressed too casually for the event.
I was not at all impressed with his performance.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 5, 2019•From Evanston, IL
To say that Scott went above and beyond to ensure that our party went smoothly would truly be an understatement. Scott and his colleague Blanca were OUTSTANDING. Not only did they keep the booze flowing, they also ensured that my wife and i enjoyed ourselves. They tidied things up, made sure our guests were well taken care. It was a perfect night because of their professionalism and above all their genuine kindness. Classic Cocktails by Scott is highly recommended for your next event—you won't be disappointed. They have us as clients for life. Thank you again, Scott and Blanca!

Scott called to introduce himself and find out about our party and what we needed. He went over the items that were included with his services and he also came up with a suggested shopping list for us. Jackie was the bartender for our Mardi Gras Party. We had 60 guests at our home. Jackie was outstanding. She arrived early to make sure everything was prepared and ready for our guests. She was extremely personable and friendly. Jackie made specialty drinks and cocktails. She also served beer and wine. We were very pleased with both Scott and Jackie.

Excellent experience. Scott is so helpful in all of the planning. Communication with both Scott and Nelson was so easy and they are both very responsive. Marlene, the bartender, they sent us, was friendly, efficient and professional. Would 100% recommend Classic Cocktails by Scott, and would hire again,
