I actually worked next door as a fellow bartender. This guy was SUPER nice, an absolute professional, and chatted with my coworkers and I as he got us drunk before our shifts :p He did enjoy making the drinks enough to be there for decades with his brother I believe. He also gave my friends and I life and barkeep advice which has been invaluable.
I love how he has such a quick eye for which glasses aren't quite full enough, and he can quickly scoop amounts from one glass to another without causing much mess. He moves the glasses without any fear of them falling or causing more spillage. It's pretty cool and you can tell he's worked there for æons.
Have enjoyed many many of these at this bar. Went there for breakfast one St. Patrick's Day (they have great food) and left around 8 that night. One of the greatest celebrations ever.
Sunday early they serve a wonderful breakfast. The place is very quiet. If you over indulged Saturday night. Have their light and lovely hangover cure Gin Fizz. I managed a restaurant named the"Tulip Garden in the middle of the block 728 Beach st. So I had a few Irish coffees along the way after closing my place.
Agreed. That final pour across is a masterstroke of bartending. It's what people remember and what keeps them coming back. All the comments here about him "wasting" coffee don't get it. The show, the presentation, is just as important as the product. It's what separates legendary joints from your garden variety bar.
His well is a disaster. I am a TGI Fridays bartender and trust me, this can be done better, with mutch better flash and flair. My god...look at his filthy sleeves.
One part of the ritual that's missing is when he fills the glasses with hot water first, in one long sweep like he does with the coffee. After a minute or two, he dumps the water out, two glasses at a time. He then proceeds with the coffee.
Impressive skills of this bartender making multiple hot beverages at the same time. Looks like he made two Bailey’s (or some Irish cream liqueur equivalent) & coffee drinks topped with whipped cream on the left.
I could sit in the Buena Vista all day, in the heart of San Francisco, with trolleys passing by just outside, and watch Paul makes 25 rounds of Irish coffee while I sip mine.
@Roy Dunn It's an "Irish Cream Coffee." I used to drink it a lot. I'd order it in casinos when I played cards as a nice alternative after drinking beer all night. Cup of coffee with just a shotglass or two of Bailey's, topped with a nice layer of heavy cream. Perfection!
Been there since the 1930's. And Fisherman's wharf is just down the block for some of the freshest seafood in the city. Don't forget to try the famous San Francisco style sourdough french bread!!!!!! 👍
actually I read the figure is closer to about 5 million. If you factor that the place has been open about 40 years... and 350 coffees a day (conservative figure). Its 350 x 365 days x 40 years. Believable
In My country, Indonesia , same style also can be seen Difference is, in Indonesia , warung = streetfood vendor do not provide Irish coffe But the way they serve coffe or tea are same 😄 some glaasses are put in the table , can be 7-12 glasses And then , some coffee or the are poured just like the video
The two on the end wanted a "Keto" irish coffee, I don't know how you could order anything other than the original considering that you're getting the legendary Irish coffee. SMH
Customer: It must be so fun to make these every day!
Bartender: Please kill me.

Woot I wish I was there!
Damn! When you tell people you were partying at the Buena Vista all day, you literally mean *all day*.
Sounds great...a proper all day bender!☺️👍
Damn how do you spend all day at a bar

As a bartender (Key West, Miami, Gainesville) love the pour. Across, then fast back. Folks love t'see that extra bit.

That bartender looks dead inside…probably makes the best damn drinks on planet earth
Focused not dead. Have respect
Wrong 100%.

this guy is actually super cool and he’s fun to talk to on not so busy day.
He probably served me in the early 80's
I'm pretty sure that man will eventually make and serve every human being he's ever met an Irish coffee.
I rented the time share above the buena vista for 2wks in the mid 2000s n spent everydy there, that dudes awesome
Yeah, served you the D
That guy looks like he’s pissed that somebody ordered all those !
For sure pissed.
Impressive skills of this bartender making multiple hot beverages at the same time. Looks like he made two Bailey’s (or some Irish cream liqueur equivalent) & coffee drinks topped with whipped cream on the left.
Those there aren't _"coffee drinks."_ Those there are Irish coffees.
Muddy283 he’s talking about the ones with cream liqueur. Those are definitely coffee drinks. All the others are Irish coffees.
@@supadopemex9245 baileys coffee lad
I seen that guy! He’s makes a lot of those! Every minute! There pretty good!
4 years ago I was here. Best Irish Coffee I’ve ever had.
Was he still there?
You will get a much better coffee drink at Friday's in the good old USA.
I love this place. The Rubens are also to die for. Never left hungry or sober. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I love Rubens, I love Irish coffee, and I love San Francisco, so it seems I must go here.
Probably made mine back in the 80's as well. Great Irish Coffee.
Comentário de quem nunca bebeu kkkkkk
Hard to beat; can't wait to have another! Amazing drink in an amazing atmosphere
I went to a pub and got them to pour my Irish coffee over ice with whiskey and Baileys as the creamer...perfection.
I could sit in the Buena Vista all day, in the heart of San Francisco, with trolleys passing by just outside, and watch Paul makes 25 rounds of Irish coffee while I sip mine.
He a legit sifu or sensei at this art
and he probably wishes you'd order something else.
@@JanoyCresva drink and hangout with friends.
@@JanoyCresva Nah, from what I've seen, Paul is very proud of their house specialty and of being a living part of San Francisco history.
That was awesome. What a master, anyone else and we’d all be covered in coffee right now
Floor is def covered in coffee
...and sticking in cream and sugar :)
Take a look at his sleeves...he is covered in coffee??
@@michealolsen1299 actually so is his torso 😅
So, the entire house was drinking Irish coffee it seems.
Must be THE house drink.
They probably were. They are so good, most of the people are drinking it when you walk in.
1 table maybe that everyone wanted an Irish coffee 2 no sugar.
@@wildernessman760 Looks like those two had Baileys added instead of cream and sugar. It's a nice alternative to traditional Irish coffee.

I can say I've been there once & maybe one day I'll make my way back and my Buena Vista was AWESOME!!!
this is on my bucket list
gee thanx for sharing...i'm on the east coast and have wondered about this place and the irish coffees, thanx again!
Yotoさんから来たけど、予想を裏切られたわ(笑)
Amazing work
Mom: I need you make 12 Irish coffee for my guests at 4 pm
*Me at 3::59
Been going there since 1973!
WOW! What a nice skill! Amazing!!!
nice joke
He's not that fast
This is the best Irish Coffee video on youtube😜🤪
So is it white sugar cubes or a table spoon of brown sugar?
I am left with only one word Hallelujah .. what a performance
Seems like this is a go to place in San Francisco
Been there since the 1930's. And Fisherman's wharf is just down the block for some of the freshest seafood in the city. Don't forget to try the famous San Francisco style sourdough french bread!!!!!! 👍
So yummy! Best Irish treat ever!
Idk why, but the stirring is sooo relaxing
Great Job
Amazing whiskey ❤
Un soggetto così in qualsiasi altra parte del mondo farebbe la fame!
Now that's a proper coffee to start the day.
The 2 irish glass was upgraded instead of 2 cubes of sugar, it's the baileys 😁🥰 wow! Kinda strong irish whisky and baileys
What a threatening display of power
so simple so delicious!
2:56 grabs the glasses by the rim 🤦♂
Welcome to the real industries my friends
I liked your way, awesome
Paul and Larry Nolan are the best...my late Fatther loved these guys.
This man is an artist
That bartender has made over 1 million irish coffees. legend.
actually I read the figure is closer to about 5 million. If you factor that the place has been open about 40 years... and 350 coffees a day (conservative figure). Its 350 x 365 days x 40 years. Believable
@@Yong_Gohpoor guy man. Someone sentenced him at birth to make 5 million coffees
Good work
love it there....
does he have something like an automatic shaker underneath?
Frother
Would order five of them just to see him making them.
What are the cubes he dropped in the glass?
Dude is splashing hot coffee all over the bar
Anyone else wondering how the glasses never seem to fill up until he poured the cream at the end🧐
Give every man his Dew.
As the original slogan was.
What do you use coffe arbica/robusta?
THIS is a bartender 😎
Bartender: here is your drink
Me: Well...thanks for making the glass dripping Hot coffee
It's good that at least he didn't spit in his coffee
How it taste?
Damn..it looks cool on hot coffee.. 😃☕
What a pro! wow 👍
I'm a bartender and he's not that fast
How many times a week do you wash your work clothes?
Bartender: Yes.
Lester Crest lol
Miss it so!
I miss it so much. Old school SF.
Don't you have to caramelize the sugar? Or flambé the alcohol?
I'm sure there are a million variations, but this seems to be the gold standard.
This is more like the food chain version of irish coffee.
Looks like my dream job
Yeah, but can you make Irish coffees like he does? Will you ever??
I felt this so deeply😢
quality of the result?
you dont walk out of the Buena Vista. You crawl.
So good. And you order more than one!
I have been there the best Irish coffee ever
In My country, Indonesia , same style also can be seen
Difference is, in Indonesia , warung = streetfood vendor do not provide Irish coffe
But the way they serve coffe or tea are same 😄 some glaasses are put in the table , can be 7-12 glasses
And then , some coffee or the are poured just like the video
Grab the glasses on top in Germany and it was your last day 🙈😁
I'll have 18 Irish coffees please.
かっこえぇ
Doing your job with big love and enthusiasm 🤣🤣🤣
He’s in the zone.
Proffesionele at work 👍
Fantastic
Absolutely no fucks given.
That man know what he does Holy shot
The first two on the left are quite different. What are they ?
coffee and baileys
When it was filmed? What year is it?
Irish coffee is made with brown sugar and not white sugar
So many varieties my friends, btw you're watching the place where Irish coffee became famous.. Lol
Not there....I've been there.....it's delicious 😋
It was like watching a scene from a movie🎬
How many white hairs part of its its racipe 😅
He is so dirty, he's making the coffe like a crazy
コーヒーを淹れるときの適当さがかえって気持ち良い。コレ日本なら五月蝿い奴いそうだな。
Why is he wearing white?
its great but its $12 for a small glass. Just know that going in.
wasted half the coffee, half the whiskey
It's a small price to pay for the "show" he gives to the customers. That's a big reason their Irish coffee is famous, and why we watch their videos.
I ordered a Margarita in the Buena Vista once. It was horrible. I deserved it. That's like ordering an Irish coffee in Pedro's.
Nice show. Bet those glasses are sticky.
An that’s how you fucking make Irish Coffees for everybody!!!✌🏻😅🍀🥃🇮🇪
The McDonald’s of Irish coffee
High end..
If an Indian bartender did this the Americans would go bat shit crazy. 🤣
Why? Indian bartenders know their trade too.
I don't get this coffee pouring mess thing...
He has more coffee on his clothes and on the floor then in the glasses .... messy bus boy 😊 I can see Jerry Lewis doing this and getting fired .
That’s less than one ounce of whiskey though
looked more to me, one ounce isn't that much and the rim on the glasses are pretty wide.
What a mess man. But i can tell this was glamorous decades ago
the counter top was designed to take the mess, so it's not really a mess.
The two on the end wanted a "Keto" irish coffee, I don't know how you could order anything other than the original considering that you're getting the legendary Irish coffee. SMH
Pax217man because some people like cream in there coffee
Those were Baileys and coffee.
Does it just suck a bit only to me?!
Arm moving at 120 inches per minute like a cnc machine lol
Surely it's brown sugar in Irish Coffee
that's called in java is jayeng
