I’ve bartended for 10 years and absolutely love getting a peek behind the bars of other establishments. It’s always nicer being on the other side. Although I do feel a bit masochistic watching work while not at work.
I'll be honest, I know almost nothing about making drinks, but I've worked in restaurants all my life and there's something so elegant about watching someone do something so skillfully and professionally. Very well done!
Bartended at a high volume college bar for 4 years and I love watching him get in the zone. I remember the feeling of being on autopilot and just pumping out drinks with the hours passing by. Good stuff!
Love your POV series. I don’t know anything about bartending, but the bartender looks so elegant and efficient. So long as the chef and the other staff are okay with it, I love this peak into what goes on in the kitchen!
@@muybitchin2180 No it wouldnt, youll make far less money for work that I would say may be about the same amount as demanding, but you dont get to choose your breaks, and dont have the option of eventually being independant unless you can afford to rent/buy a place to make a bar to do this in. The people you help appreciate it less, and will complain if they think its mixed wrong even if you did it perfectly, and its not like electricity for a house where it either works or it doesnt. Someone just might pretend they dont like the taste and tell you to make another. Stay an electrician. You did your training and now get to make the big bucks being a tradesmen.

I assisted behind a cocktail bar for an event once, and that had a limited menu of only 9 cocktails I think. It was still hella hectic, so I have deep respect for anyone who can do this sort of work consistently for hours, regularly, while maintaining quality and maybe even social skills.
@@rem45acp He says "Bartender's choice", but I really can't tell what he's making, as he's doing it very out of order (serving other customers between), and the bottles don't have labels.
@@schana96 Looks like it’s lemon and lime juice (poured into the same jigger), followed by simple syrup, some darker colored ingredient (maybe honey syrup), and bombay sapphire. Oh there’s also some dashes from a small bottle in there. So maybe a bees knees cocktail but extra sweet with the simple syrup.
must say cocktail bars are hard im currently working in one as its my first job just being 19 with 25 cocktails on the menu. Its hard work but love it wish I could be more like this though ours is very fast paced get the drinks out asap while this is more delicate. Must say has also helped social skills lol
He makes this look so elegant and effortless. I could never control that chaos like he does. This establishment is packed to the brim and he just does his thing and makes it look so smooth.
I loved how calm he and everyone was and when he said "Chatting to lovely guests and making cocktails". Employers should hire people like him who are carrying the business instead of people who can't handle a fast paced environment and scream their way through.
Being calm like this takes YEEEEARS of practice too, though. Don't forget that. Everyone is panicked early on so there will always be restaurants that have to hire those people, or no one will ever get to this level
This takes skill and as previously stated years of honing. Plus you need to have the proper mentality/demeanor. I've worked alongside enough people who got pissed off for the most inconsequential things... true professionals are hard to find
Ooooo look at me fast paced environment that charges 10£ for a bottle of water look at me I'm such a pillar of idiocy.. look at m3 go doing more work for less money to make the most braindead members of the middle class ogle at my pouring 😂😂😂
this type of bartending is like a waltz, others like an elegant but more carrabien or tiki oriented is like salsa etc. there are different types of. This is not my cup of tea, but watching it is calming and nice, althou I prefer the bit more fast phased bit more freestyle bartending. But everyone does what their personality and vibe matches. This guy is amazing!
It's so interesting seeing the random conversations of people from a different country where they speak English in a completely different way. I'm from NZ and I love the different accents in this video
As a bartender, its so interesting to see what its like at a different establishment, how their setup is designed, how they engage with customers, down to the individual's subtle movements and techniques (like shaking, stirring, how they grab the bottle) its always fun to see. One of the biggest things I'm admiring here is how organised everything is.
I'm just a raw newbie home bartender, so it's fascinating for me to see how things work in the professional world. Clearly a lot of experience, work, and thought goes into setting up an efficient station. The way he grips the jigger at different times is interesting too - a lot of subtle economy of motion going on. Watching these gives me a lot of inspiration, as well as a greater appreciation of the skills of real bartenders.
Career bartender here.. taking note of somethings others might have missed...the excellent bar set up, you never have to move more than 3/4steps "jealous" ...you're cool calm n flowing movements *touch of flare but no wasted movement 👍🏿... Also im so jealous of your ice.. cold n dry. Ice is super important in cocktails 👌🏿👍🏿
It's not only entertaining to watch but also great background noise when studying or reading. I really enjoyed this content. Hes a really nice person too so that's an amazing plus.
Damn bro this looks busy as hell 🤣 I'm a pastry chef who works in the back of house, being surrounded by guests as they watch you work and wait for their drinks sounds like a nightmare to me :0 Really impressed with the efficiency, stress management and fun small talks with the guests! Also the kitchen seems hella small. Good job!
Oh man what a great perspective! I'm an engineer now, but worked in restaurants my whole life before. Starting from bus-boy in high school, to waiting at different restaurants throughout college. I NEVER lost respect for those who work in food and hospitality... It's HARD work and very humbling. So amazing to see it done at this level, at your guys' restaurant. Cheers from over in California! 🚀🚀 Any chance we'll get another POV this week? Hehe 🤞😭🍳🥓
Im an Engineer as well, but while studying worked in retail and hospitality! I think everyone should do it at some point, it allows a great respect and perspective of people working in service industries
I’m quite the bartender myself having 8 years of experience but seeing how you move, do and use techniques is very interesting and I think I can improve from watching you work. Thanks.
I really enjoy watching a skilled bartender at work, they truly develop a rhythm and move with such grace. It's so satisfying to watch their movement while building drinks.
I really enjoy these POV bar making videos (as a lot of other people so it seems! ☺). For me it's not only the fact that you get a POV of a profession that, for me, I've always admired and found interesting (especially when done well where you can see the passion, table manner and skills in play), it's also the ambience of an environment like this coming through in the video that I really like! It just makes me feel nice. Though, the night time video you posted had that special ambience of a Friday (or Saturday) night, that was just cool to be a part of. Thank you ❤
The fact that when a customer calls him to chat a little and he turns immediately with the drink order of another customer shows that he is an OG BARTENDER 😤💎
I used to work as a waitress in a bar like this when I was a student and when I saw this video I remembered those days... I still miss that rhythm of work.
This is the most satisfying entertaining video I've seen on RUclips since of 23 years of my life living down here It's like an ASMR video a little bit and it's very calming
I’ve been bartending for 20 years, and trust me, the industry keeps you on your toes. Between juggling muddled vs. shaken cocktails, remembering the difference between a dry shake and a reverse dry shake, and handling guests who ask for ‘something like a Manhattan, but not a Manhattan’-it’s a rollercoaster. And don’t get me started on people ordering a Negroni with vodka instead of gin or arguing about whether to use sweet or dry vermouth. Then there’s the whole debate over garnish techniques. Some days, it feels like I’m more in chemistry class than behind a bar 😂
@@JW93.you get tips lol. The better you work the more tips you get. Bartenders make so much money especially in places like this where drinks cost $15+
Lots of things are literally poison if you take the dictionary definition, that doesn’t mean they can’t be put to good use or even made into art in the hands of the right person.
Humans have enjoyed fatal activities for years, it's coded into us. Alcohol isn't necessarily poison provided it's consumed in sensible quantities every so often. Everything in moderation as they say and negligible harm will be done.
As someone who doesn’t drink often I’d say that it is ok to drink every once in a while as long as you don’t go all out and get drunk. I enjoy Mezcal and Tequila but I don’t let alcohol control me. I get that it is not only poison for the liver, also for the brain. But I think that you can have a healthy relationship with it. Just like food, some food is bad for you but one can enjoy it without letting it control you and develop health problems because of that.
Love the flow. I've been tending for over 6 years now and still to this day often enough get anxious, when the bat starts to fill. But it's always when the adrenaline kicks and you get into a flow state, then you just function.
This makes me miss bartending. It's amazing how the brain can trick you into remembering the positives! The good: The flow of crafting multiple drinks while keeping customers engaged, entertained, and building rapport. The confidence of pouring a drink that you know the customers will enjoy and remember. The bad: Being on your feet and moving quickly for an 8+ hour shift. Restocking the alcohol and beer bottles/kegs at the end of the night. Mopping the floors and cleaning up the bathrooms (sometimes with puke). Counting the till to make sure it adds up or the boss will be on your ass! Does anyone else have a similar experience or sentiment?
I truly hope he is not the only bartender, that was an exceptionally long time to make the first 4 drinks. Don’t get me wrong they were beautifully made, but it just took a long time. I think he may be one of many, because otherwise people would be waiting forever for drinks. I was a cocktail waitress for 5 years
Seeing a bartender working is mesmerizing, and I don't even drink alcohol, but I think it's beautiful to see the mix of drinks, the colors, I keep imagining the perfumes that must emanate from the drink.
Sooo soothing to watch! One little thing caught my attention though : no cap or stopper on an open carbonated bottle ? I often find that carbonated based cocktails feels slightly off/flat. Is that because very little time the bottles make their way back into the fridge properly capped ? Even if the bottle will be emptied within the next 20 min for other drinks it feels like such an impactful thing that I wonder why it's overlooked.
Mate try doing a 14 hour shift in a bar on a Saturday and you will realise that quality of service always drops with a massive customer overflow, were all humans, not robots, and were trying to serve people as fast as we can, putting a poxy stopper on some smelly bottle of prosecco that costs like 20 quid is not the biggest concern. Especially when some dickhead comes up to us at 2am asking for 24 whiskey sours and dosent even leave a tip.
So much passive agressiveness when my comment has not even a little hint of disrepect for the work but a genuine question to which you didnt really answered. I'm not going to places servings drinks by the pallet to show off drunkards with shades on in a night club, especially because of that customer base @@crazydublincid900
I started drinking alcohol 18 years ago as a teenage, spent my whole life fighting alcohol addiction. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with cptsd. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 6 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
YES very sure of Dr.alishrooms. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
From my experience it really works excellently! It doesnt even need to be a full hit. With potent shrooms 2-3 small ones will still make a clear difference. It will be a few hour cosy rumbling moment around rest time, but afterwards its just calm and you feel amazing and gain your freedom. Psilocybin is different dudes, its the only "treatment" I would recommend to someone who genuinely wants to get better. There is no addiction, withdrawal, or negative side effects. It's just pure healing., far more effective than any anti-depressant. You can thank me later,
I love how he works, organized, clean, methodical, calm, interacting with clients, communicating with colleagues and working as a team. I identify with him because of how he works but the only thing I criticize is that he always takes the glass to the ice. I I made the same mistake until I learned that the ice should go into the glass with the scoop but always away from the ice at the cocktail station. I'm also curious how it pours into the mini tin and not into the Boston. Anyway, they are small details. I love how you work
I know I’m not really allowed to watch these as I’m 18, but I find these videos so relaxing as I want to be an interior designer and do bartending on the side. Learning what to expect, what drinks go with what alcohols, etc. make me really calm idk why but it does.
I’ve been a bartender for years and honestly it’s really rewarding and fun. I also love the social aspect of it chatting with random guests and sometimes familiar faces all day. Makes the time go faster.
This is really inspiring me to become a bartender, in the state of Texas you can become one even at 18! I don’t drink but I’ll love to make drinks for customers
@@yashigamingandmore6426 It used to be up to each state what age you could drink. Then Reagan came in and f"d up our whole country and threatened to take any states highway funding if they didnt raise the age to 21

depends where u live but in canada you take a bartending course to get a license, it takes a few weeks but it’s not difficult. after that just go applying at bars/restaurants/hotels.
From one cocktail bartender to another, a shot of Fernet in your honour good sir. Love the videos. Hope to visit one day and order a Ramos Gin Fizz during rush hour(; Cheers 🍸
You surprisingly remember everything when you need it. I think some people underestimate restaurant bartenders because not only do we have to have full knowledge of cocktails and beers but also the menu and how everything is prepared. All while keeping up sharp social skills. It’s fun though.
Never ice a glass over the well. Inevitably one of them will chip and you’ll have to stop what you’re doing and melt all the ice. It nearly always happens right when you’re getting crushed just after the dining room has been flat sat.
I love these types of videos. Cause whenever I watch them, I can see some things that he does and maybe use those for when I become a bartender one day.

Counting the till to make sure it adds up or the boss will be on your ass! Does anyone else have a similar experience or sentiment?
I don't know why but I need this bartender POVs more. I just watched the hole video straight.
I cannot describe how happy I am knowing some of these drinks and how to make them after my first year of working at a restaurant
This bartender povs are so good, keep it up !
I truly hope he is not the only bartender, that was an exceptionally long time to make the first 4 drinks. Don’t get me wrong they were beautifully made, but it just took a long time.
I think he may be one of many, because otherwise people would be waiting forever for drinks.
I was a cocktail waitress for 5 years
This guy is so fast and so smooth I honestly thought I had the video speed turned up by mistake. Very talented individual.
Pretty fast, if he was 3 deep at the bar though he would have to speed it up even more
Well there is obviously some speed ramping going on in the video for editing purposes, but totally agree
backs please...such a sweet phrase
when I worked as a bar staff, my busy manager always said "Get out of my way" during super crowded hours lol
Loved every single minute of it , You ve reminded me of the beauty of working in the bar
I thought he was politey telling max to stop getting in his way 😂😂
This reminds me of working on the yachts. 4 hours full power service and 2 seatings. 5 - 9pm. And a linch service 12-2pm Nicely done bro. Keep it up.
Seeing a bartender working is mesmerizing, and I don't even drink alcohol, but I think it's beautiful to see the mix of drinks, the colors, I keep imagining the perfumes that must emanate from the drink.
Sooo soothing to watch!
One little thing caught my attention though : no cap or stopper on an open carbonated bottle ? I often find that carbonated based cocktails feels slightly off/flat. Is that because very little time the bottles make their way back into the fridge properly capped ? Even if the bottle will be emptied within the next 20 min for other drinks it feels like such an impactful thing that I wonder why it's overlooked.
Mate try doing a 14 hour shift in a bar on a Saturday and you will realise that quality of service always drops with a massive customer overflow, were all humans, not robots, and were trying to serve people as fast as we can, putting a poxy stopper on some smelly bottle of prosecco that costs like 20 quid is not the biggest concern. Especially when some dickhead comes up to us at 2am asking for 24 whiskey sours and dosent even leave a tip.
So much passive agressiveness when my comment has not even a little hint of disrepect for the work but a genuine question to which you didnt really answered. I'm not going to places servings drinks by the pallet to show off drunkards with shades on in a night club, especially because of that customer base @@crazydublincid900
i drink too much when i watch this video. so satisfying. every coctail,is shot of gin for me))
I started drinking alcohol 18 years ago as a teenage, spent my whole life fighting alcohol addiction. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with cptsd. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 6 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
YES very sure of Dr.alishrooms. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
How do I reach out to him? Is he on insta
From my experience it really works excellently! It doesnt even need to be a full hit. With potent shrooms 2-3 small ones will still make a clear difference. It will be a few hour cosy rumbling moment around rest time, but afterwards its just calm and you feel amazing and gain your freedom. Psilocybin is different dudes, its the only "treatment" I would recommend to someone who genuinely wants to get better. There is no addiction, withdrawal, or negative side effects. It's just pure healing., far more effective than any anti-depressant. You can thank me later,
Does he ship?
Yes got mine shipped here in Montenegro 🇲🇪
I love how he works, organized, clean, methodical, calm, interacting with clients, communicating with colleagues and working as a team. I identify with him because of how he works but the only thing I criticize is that he always takes the glass to the ice. I I made the same mistake until I learned that the ice should go into the glass with the scoop but always away from the ice at the cocktail station. I'm also curious how it pours into the mini tin and not into the Boston. Anyway, they are small details. I love how you work
i finally realize that bar tending is an art form
I just love the way he served its just well and clean
I know I’m not really allowed to watch these as I’m 18, but I find these videos so relaxing as I want to be an interior designer and do bartending on the side. Learning what to expect, what drinks go with what alcohols, etc. make me really calm idk why but it does.
why would you not be allowed to watch someone make drinks even if youre not allowed to drink yet lol
I’ve been a bartender for years and honestly it’s really rewarding and fun. I also love the social aspect of it chatting with random guests and sometimes familiar faces all day. Makes the time go faster.
He's moving so fast and so precise it makes it appear the other employees are just standing still behind the bar.
This is really inspiring me to become a bartender, in the state of Texas you can become one even at 18! I don’t drink but I’ll love to make drinks for customers
You are grown up at 18...
@@Yamahan93 America laws about drinking are way too strict than here in europe
@@yashigamingandmore6426 It used to be up to each state what age you could drink. Then Reagan came in and f"d up our whole country and threatened to take any states highway funding if they didnt raise the age to 21

Damn bro this looks busy as hell I'm a pastry chef who works in the back of house, being surrounded by guests as they watch you work and wait for their drinks sounds like a nightmare to me :0 Really impressed with the efficiency, stress management and fun small talks with the guests! Also the kitchen seems hella small. Good job!
I want to bartend but I'm not sure how to start, I'd eventually love to become a master distiller/brewer. It's an art.
depends where u live but in canada you take a bartending course to get a license, it takes a few weeks but it’s not difficult. after that just go applying at bars/restaurants/hotels.
If you're in the UK, just walk into a bar and ask for a job. So many are ready to take on newbies.
There’s a great Brewery/Restaurant in Baltimore called The Brewer’s Art.
This is way more mesmerizing than I thought it would.
From one cocktail bartender to another, a shot of Fernet in your honour good sir. Love the videos. Hope to visit one day and order a Ramos Gin Fizz during rush hour(; Cheers 🍸
Why not , especially at a busy hour :D
Chris, best (and most polite) way to get a bartenders attention at a busy lounge/rooftop bar ?
The finesse, the flourish, like watching a painter
Come on Max, get it together!
Perfection,experience,communication skills at it's peak🎉👏
Love to see it, I really appreciate it. But why is in drinks so much ice ? To keep the cost low?
not sure but maybe to cool down stuff that he throws in or to get more fresh ice
Love how there not celebrating a thing. There just enjoying themselves. No wrath, no punishment. Just. Pure Adult fun. #ENJOY
So glad to see another bartending one! I love all the vids. One day I hope to get to visit your restaurant
My toxic trait is thinking I could do this. This is so immensely impressive and satisfying.
Love this POV of a bartender
Quick
Lots of cool tricks
Very nice 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I love this job when bartender are professional ❤
You should do a POV with the servers/waiting staff
I'm 19 months off alcohol but this is so satisfying to watch
I want to know how they can memorize all of the recipes for those cocktails. I would forget instantly 😅
It,s just the matter of time as long as u do you know more
You surprisingly remember everything when you need it. I think some people underestimate restaurant bartenders because not only do we have to have full knowledge of cocktails and beers but also the menu and how everything is prepared. All while keeping up sharp social skills. It’s fun though.
a lot of cocktails are just variations of other cocktails so once you do it enough you pick up the patterns and it makes it easier to remember
I really enjoy the composure because I know he was pissed a couple times and his response was beautifully put "absolutely"
Never ice a glass over the well. Inevitably one of them will chip and you’ll have to stop what you’re doing and melt all the ice. It nearly always happens right when you’re getting crushed just after the dining room has been flat sat.
Literally happen to me tonight. First time ever for me. Was able to melt the ice and get back to service in 5 min. It was a collins glass 😢
The waterdrop on the leaf was an incredibly simple but awesome touch to the garnish
This made me want to become a bartender and I don't really know anything about alcohol
I love these types of videos. Cause whenever I watch them, I can see some things that he does and maybe use those for when I become a bartender one day.
i was waiting for the bartender pov and now we have it yes!!!!
Bro can i get your insta id
I think making food is much easier I freak up all the drinks ... How do they even not take tym reading which alo is it 😂 love it man ❤
22:29 what is this red liquid your adding? Im so curious 😍
It looks like Peychaud's bitters :)
Id be screaming that BEHIND 😂😂 was my favorite part of working in a kitchen
So much ice !!!
