Hire A Barman Ireland Reviews 

We booked a mobile bar and cocktail making service for a party we held in our home and we were so delighted with the experience. The cocktails were really well made, looked and tasted brilliant. The staff were super friendly and helpful. One of the barmen kept making sure our guests were served and took away used glasses. It was better than we were expecting and took our evening to the next level. I actually don't know how we will ever now have a party without using this service!!! We have been spoiled :)
Would highly recommend and would book again for sure!!!

We booked a bartender for the afternoon of August 16th for a family gathering at our home. It was a seamless experience from first contact with Dan to the arrival of Sean at the appointed time. We opted to supply our own drinks and Sean was so efficient and pleasant in dealing with all age groups at the event. When rain (!) forced us indoors Sean helped to sort out the chaos.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Hire a Barman.

We had Sean and Hussain for our party. The two lads were unbelievable, they made the party. They interacted with all the guest making sure everyone had drinks. They worked behind the scene cleaning and making sure things ran smoothly. Both lads are a credit to the company. We will definitely use them again. Thank you so much.

I can't recommend this company highly enough. We were 10 days out from a hen night that had been cancelled at a different location and had to start to rearrange our whole night from scratch. They came to our rescue at the last minute with their mobile cocktail making class for *18 - direct to the lodges that we were staying at. From the initial contact with Dan, their communication was 10/10 at every step of the way. We picked 3 of 7 cocktails for our event and each one more delicious than the previous one. Jose was our bar man for the evening and he entertained us soooo well throughout. (Tom Cruise wasn't even as good!). He arrived with all supplies, equipment, ingredients, glasses etc. We honestly giggled and danced through the whole event. He made the bride feel extra special and also took time to look after her very pregnant friend with non alcoholic options. I would have no hesitation to recommend. We priced similar events elsewhere who were quoting much more than them. I hope to be able to use them again.

At first I was a little bit unsure of what to expect from the bar staff, but from the moment they arrived right up until the left,they couldn't have been more helpful - everything went perfect and id happily recommend to anyone!

Our experience with Hire a Barman was excellent from the very first interaction right through to the event itself. Dan was incredibly helpful throughout the planning process, offering plenty of options to suit our event and being extremely accommodating with our last-minute changes.

We hired two bar staff and one waiting staff member, and we were genuinely blown away by the service. I expected them to do a great job, but they went far beyond simply serving drinks—they became a real part of the event and contributed hugely to making the night such a success.

The team were professional, friendly, efficient, and brought fantastic energy to the event. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Hire a Barman to anyone looking for high-quality, professional staff who also know how to create a brilliant atmosphere. If you value exceptional hospitality, flexibility, and a team that genuinely goes the extra mile, this is the service for you.

Thanks again, guys!

From our initial query to hire bar tenders, Hire A Barman Ireland were so professional and helpful. Dan & Remy were always quick to respond by email & phone and sent excellent cocktail menu choices, shopping list etc before our event. We were told the bar tenders names in advance and all details of directions etc were checked by them in advance.

On the day, Sean & Husain arrived ahead of time, very well presented and straight away got the bar set up. They followed our requests regarding wine/cocktails etc and looked after our guests (40 people) so well. They were friendly, attentive and so helpful all evening. As the event was still in full flow, an hour before they were due to finish, they flagged it to me - which was really helpful. I had totally lost track of time. They arranged to stay an extra hour, which meant we could relax and let people continue to enjoy themselves. They cleaned & tidied everything before leaving and left drinks ready for the late stayers.

Having worked in hospitality myself for years, the five star standard of service & experience is evident.

It was my fist time to work with Hire a Barman Ireland and I certainly will again and would happily recommend them for private events.

We used Hire a barman Irleand for a Christening in our house and we found them to be very professional and helpful. They managed the drinks duties and cocktails exceptinoally well and I would highly recommend them.

Jose turned up on time, made great cocktails, had the craic with our guests & left the place spotless when leaving. Highly recommended.

We used hireabarman.ie for our summer bbq party. Usain arrived on time, he was very professional, pro active and friendly to our guests.
We were very impressed with the service and will definitely be using them again. Highly recommended!

We had such a lovely experience with Hire a Barman, right off the bat they were extremely helpful with planning our home event. The Bar set up was fab and our bar staff Marco and Emma were so lovely. 😊Everyone complimented the cocktails, they were done to a really high standard. Staff were extremely friendly to everyone and kept the place tidy and clean.
Really great experience overall & will be 100% booking again!

I had Sean bartend for my sisters baby shower, he mixed a wide range of cocktails & alcohol free cocktails. He was warm & chatty & a pleasure to have at the event, I would highly recommend this service to my friends & family & look forward to using them again for our next special occasion.

Sean was an amazing waiter/barman. He was able to do everything, was excellently organised and brilliant with the guests. Our day was so much more manageable and enjoyable because of him. Punctual, professional and a nicer person. A very reliable service.

We booked a mixologist for an at home hen party (20 guests) and we had Lorna for the evening. She was lovely - arrived on time and so personable and chatty with everyone. She made 3 cocktails that catered to all tastes and our guests loved it.

I honestly could not recommend this company more, I will be hiring them again very soon! Sean arrived early, unbelievably professional, fantastic mixologist, made the event.

We hired a bartender for a birthday party at home. Everything was great! Michael was very professional, polite. He made delish cocktails! Arrived on time and had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend these guys .

From the very first point of contact, Dan was responsive and informative. Our barman arrived on time, worked hard throughout, and even helped clear food plates—something that wasn’t required but was very much appreciated. He was a fantastic addition to the event, allowing us to relax, chat, and fully enjoy ourselves. I would highly recommend this service and will definitely use it again.

Bartender was professional and punctual. Great value for money

Absolutely horrible company to deal with- DO NOT BOOK.

I first made contact with this company a few weeks ago to make an enquiry for a hen party booking. After getting a quote, I politely let the company know that we had received a cheaper quote from a different company and did not need any further assistance.

Unfortunately a few days before our hen party, our original booking (who friends had used before and were brilliant and so professional) had to cancel due to unforeseen personal reasons.
I then emailed Hire A Barman and asked if they had any last minute availability and if so, could they send me a quote. I received an email back replying “pay peanuts, get monkeys”. A member of this company then phoned me (he said he was the manager) and when I explained how I was unhappy with the rude reply I received, he in turn started to tell me how he could not understand how that reply was rude, I had “read it wrong”, I had clearly “frustrated his staff as they were left to clean up someone else’s mess” and that essentially it was my own fault for our last minute cancellation. He then continued to try and find out the name of the company we had originally booked with and stated “they probably made up they had a bereavement as you’d never question that”. When I declined to tell him the name of the other company as, again I explained it was a genuine cancellation and that they have previously been fantastic to deal with, he said “we are the biggest company in Ireland in this industry, if you tell me their name, I could talk to them and make sure they make more of an effort”. I simply stated that I did not want to continue the conversation, I was extremely unhappy with their customer service and would not be recommending them to anyone, he replied that I had upset his staff and he was “only trying to help me”.

Overall, I have never experienced worse customer service and would not trust this company at all!!

Really convenient. Service was excellent.Drinks delicious. Highly recomended.
