Hi, I'm Murph. I have been bartending for 24 years, & I desire to purely tend the bar. What that means to me is paying attention to the physical bar, its cleanliness & care, but also to the folks in & around it, looking to their needs & reacting with sensitive proactivity. I care not only for guests' drinks, but for the guests themselves. I have worked chain bar & grills in Mississippi, karaoke dives & jukebox pool halls in Florida, Irish pubs in Brooklyn & Indiana, upscale restaurants & sports bars in Manhattan, & private events all along the way. I'd love your trust to treat your event with care, ceremony, & passion. Hope to hear from you. Cheers.
Murph did a great job bartending my wedding of about 100 guests :)
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Thanks, Elaine! Congratulations to you and Kaleb!!
He was amazing and down to earth! Did great work! Very friendly and always willing to help. I would recommend him to anyone.
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
It was real special to be a part of y'all's celebration, and I feel blessed and grateful for the experience. I've also never in my life seen so many alpacas in one place at one time!! ;) Blessings on your marriage and thanks for having me. Cheers!
Murph was early, well prepared, and enthusiastic. He did an incredible job and was very easy to work with!
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Thank you for your encouraging words, Ciara! Grateful for the opportunity to work together and congrats on the new space!!
Murph is one of those guys you can turn loose and not have to worry about whether he's going to take care of business. He was very friendly with my guest and overall it was a great night.
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Brian, thanks for the encouraging words and for inviting Stephen & I to celebrate your daughter's wedding. It was so groovy to have it at the National Auto & Truck Museum, too. We appreciate you!!
From the initial response we knew Murph was our guy. Personable and responsive from first contact. Murph was caring, professional and passionate. Our important night was made better by fantastic service. Hire this guy for your event and you will not be disappointed. Much thanks to Murph and his sidekick Mike!
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Dave, Mike and I were so impressed with you as a man and a person. Thank you for hosting us with gentleness and clarity. We were honored to be chosen by you, flattened by your generosity, and would love to come work with you again...anytime. Cheers!
My brother hired Murph for me as a gift. It was a kind of bachelor party type event with six of my friends. It was great! Murph taught us how to make three different mixed drinks and was also available for other drinks as the night went on. Murph was very knowledgeable and personable and friendly. He was able to spend some time with us throughout the evening, but also gave us some space too, which I appreciated. I would totally hire Murph for another event like this.
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Thank you, Deacon!! Appreciate your encouraging words and the freedom to ride the fence of business and leisure with y'all. Hope to see you again someday soon. Cheers, brother.
Murph is very professional, but also warm and engaging.
Murph did an excellent job with communicating before the event. He went out of his way to personalize a unique event for my brother and his seminarian buddies. Definitely recommend!
Murph saved the day! After a quick call with him, I knew he was the guy for our event. The last week before our event was crazy and hectic and we ended up not getting the 24 hour liquor license. Murph stepped right in with mocktail ideas. It was a hit! They were so incredibly friendly and awesome with our guests. Thanks for making our day so great!
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
LISA!! Thank you so for having us yesterday. What a time celebrating with all the attending BEEPS from the last 50 years in Blandford School history. It was a treat to work together, scramble in the eleventh hour, and come out on top with you and yours. Nice to meet and chat with Ben, Niki, Tessa, Rick (with a GREAT speech!!), Leonard, and Grandpa/Mister O/Maestro/Stacey. :) Looking forward to forging ahead in our relationship for future events. Cheers, and enjoy every sandwich.
Murph. & Stephen
Murph tended bar at my parents 40th anniversary and did an absolutely impeccable job! Not only was he attentive to our 65 guests, he helped curate and plan signature drinks that were hands down some of the best we’ve had! He was able to work in a small bar space in our party barn on the property and had no issues maneuvering around and creating a fun, lively experience for guests. Thank you Murph for your amazing skill and energetic presence on our parents special day! We’ll be calling you for our next event!
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Trish!! Thanks for the encouraging words, bud. You, your family, and y'all's loved ones were sweet to be around and get to know. From your folks' Hot 'n' Now 15th anniversary stories to watching them dance to Van Morrison, and everything in between, I'd be happy and honored to share in the ceremony with y'all again. (Coincidentally, my first dance at my wedding was to a Van Morrison song, so that was extra special.) Looking forward to hearing from you, and keep Memphis groovy! Cheers.
Enjoy every sandwich,
Murph.
Murph was great! He answered all questions in a timely manner and was in touch with us prior to our event. Organized and punctual!!!
My husband and I loved having Murph bartend at our wedding! He was extremely friendly and very attentive with what we wanted. We heard nothing but nice things from our guests! I recommend have Murph as your bartender for your event!
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
THANK YOU, Sabrina and Logan! Your guests were friendly and kind, and Mike and I had a blast taking care of and spending time with them. Congrats to you! Hope the honeymoon is relaxing and fun!!
Murph and Mike were absolutely the best ever!!! They made our daughter's wedding fantastic. Wedding guests loved them and they provided the best possible professional bar tending service ever. These 2 guys worked hard all night long, adjusted professionally when we ran out of a few things. Highly recommend Murph Tends Bar for any bar tending needs.
Murph was such a hit at our wedding reception! He was incredibly warm and friendly, and knew everyone's name and drink order right away! He was even a big hit with the kids! From start to finish, all of the communication was positive, clear, and professional. He was exceptional and we would absolutely hire him again! Thank you, Murph!
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Jess, you're the best! What a joy it was to barkeep for you, Patrick, and your family & friends! Thank you for your sweet review, and I look forward to working for you & your people again someday!
We hired Murph and his crew to bartend a wedding reception for our son and daughter-in-law. We can’t thank them enough for all of their hard work and professionalism. Murph pays great attention to every single detail involved in hosting an event like this, and was a wealth of knowledge on the entire subject. They kept over 200 guest serviced with a smile and we heard many great comments about Murph and his crew because of their friendly engagement and dialogue with everyone. I could go on and on about the little things they did that really went above and beyond the scope of our expectations. Needless to say, Murph will be my “go to guy” whenever I have an event like this.
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Sam, thanx for the encouraging words. You communicated clearly and easily, too, so thanx also for that. Mike, Stephen, and I had a blast with your guests and hope to work with many of them in the future. Look forward to planning something with you again soon. May you be well.
Murph was very professional and warm and was a wonderful part of our wedding reception. We would definitely book him again!
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Yesterday was special for me, Lizzy. Thanx for inviting me to share your day. Nice to run into y'all at Bishop's Quarter, too! All the best to you and Sam. You are two generous and mindful people. May you be well.

Everyone loved having Murph as the bartender at our wedding celebration! He did a great job and was very personable 🙂
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Thank you, Natalie, and congrats! The Garden is a groovy venue, too. Nice choice! Honored that you would have me. Cheers! :)
Murph did a great job at our event last night.
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Thank you, Tama. It was a pleasure to get to know you and your family last night as we celebrated Natalie & Matt at The Garden, truly "a place to grow." Thank you for having me. I'd love to work with you or anyone in your circle again. Happy New Year!
Murph did a fantastic job bartending for our in home Christmas party of about 75 guests. He was attentive, responsible, flexible, and creative. Great communication upfront and we had a real dialogue about the kind of vibe we wanted to have at our party. We worked together to stock the bar, and he basically made anything our guests requested in including some fun signature drinks. Our guests raved about him during and after the party and he really added a lot of fun to our event. Highly recommend!
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Aaron, thanx for the encouraging words. It was special to be welcomed into your home and help you throw an amazing holiday party. Thanx for your trust and generosity. Cheers!
To say Murphy exceeded expectations is an understatement! He was an amazing addition to our event. Murph was beyond professional, mingled with our guests and kept the drinks flowing all night! We can’t wait for our next party to have Murphy come back out and join us again. If you are looking for a top notch bartender for your event, Murphy is a MUST BOOK!
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Nick, you da best, brother! Thanx for having me, and I'd love to come back anytime. Peace and chicken grease.
We hired Murph for our 2020 wedding, which was subsequently postponed to 2021 due to COVID. Murph was excellent throughout the entire process which was a huge help since COVID wedding planning is stressful enough. Fast, friendly communication via the app, phone and text. Took the time to listen to my preferences, and made sure the day went smoothly and I didn't have to think of anything when it came to the bar. He arrived early, created signature cocktails for us, and agreed to stay late to entertain the afterparty. My guests had a blast, we had a blast, he was such a treat to have at the wedding. I wish we could have another party and hire him again!
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Maggie, what a joy it was to work with and for you at your wedding ceremony and reception. The Record Box Loft is an amazing venue, too. Great choice!
These photos are incredible, too. What a treat to have you share those.
Yes, let's do it again sometime, and please feel free to share my name and info with anyone you'd like.
May you be well,
Murph.
Murph was the bartender at our wedding last week and he did an amazing job. During the planning process he stayed in contact with us to make sure we had all of the information needed to make the bartending service go well. At the wedding he did an amazing job and many guests commented to us how amazing Murph was. We will be suggesting him to everyone and will definitely hire him again for any of our bartending needs!
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Oh, Abby, thanx, buddy! It was a pleasure to serve you and yours and I hope our paths cross again one day. Maybe even at your brother's wedding next year? Cheers!
Murph communicated excellently and was a joy to all of our guests
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Gee whiz, thanx, Evan. It was a pleasure to be a part of your special day. Y'all are all great dancers, by the way. Cheers.
Murph was engaging with my guests, positive attitude and overall very easy to work with. I hope to work with him again soon!
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Thank you, Jennifer. Amazing space and people and time spent with both. Yeah, let's do it again sometime! May you and J. be well, sister. Cheers.
Fantastic!! Truly, we could never thank Murph (and his bartender partner Michael) enough! This guy is it, he's your guy. Do not look any further!!! Ice, new concoctions, family recipes, excellent customer service, he was a part of the family and we are still receiving compliments on their amazing job. Our wedding was in Holland, MI and the guys came up for our event. Their patience with us planning during Covid, just wow across the board. We started off with two bars and the day-of only one was used and WOW!!! The care they put into every interaction... my flower girl is 5 and received the sweetest treatment for her water with lemon!! WITH LEMON! They truly just went above and beyond in every way and we cannot recommend them enough to everyone and anyone. Murph, we hope to have the privilege of visiting your bar in Indiana someday!!
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Jax!! Thank you, sister. Was an honor and a blast to be along for the ride to celebrate and work with you and Thomas. Your family is amazingly kind and generous, too. Here's to you! Cheers!!
Murph is an amazing bartender. Everyone couldn’t stop raving about him throughout the day. He remembered everyone’s name and the drinks they liked. He was a lot of fun. I would hire him again for any future event.
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Ahhh, McKensi! Thank you for the encouraging words. It was my honor to celebrate with you and Toney. Hope to celebrate together again some day with a Blue Long Island, whether at your own event or someone else's. Please tell Toney thanx for teaching me all about the Aqua Hurricane. :)
Cheers,
Murph.
Murph was amazing! From the minute he walked in to the minute he left, he talked about his wonderful family he’s “daughters” he stayed engaged in conversation with all our guests & made everyone one of them feel special by remembering everyone’s drink request. We will definitely pass he name and information on to our friends & family. Thank you Murph for your great job well done.
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Julie, YOU are #1 as a host and client! I am grateful to have been able to celebrate with you and yours. Thanx for having me, for taking care of me, and for sending me home with gifts for my girls. May you be well, sister.
We had an event for kids and challenged Murph and his team to create some craft milk "mocktails" and they were amazing! Everyone loved them and raved about the bartenders. Murph was quick to respond to everything and delivered on everything I needed. We loved having him at our event.
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Michelle, you and the Bones Love Milk team do challenging and rewarding work, and y'all were also a pleasure to work with leading up to and at this event. Thanx for having Mike and myself. Here's hoping we get to work together again someday.
May you be well,
Murph.
Working with Murph was great. He help put the event together in short order and made preparing for the event as easy as possible. I highly recommend hiring him for any event.
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Mike, thanx for your kind and encouraging words. This was one of my favorite events to do, largely because of your kindness and generosity. It was fun and exciting to work and plan with you to take care of Katie and your people, and I was well taken care of, too. Thank you a thousand times.
May you be well,
Murph.
Murph was the greatest bartender we could have hoped for. Every guest commented how professional and kind he was. He did an amazing job and i feel the luckiest person to have had him at my son's wedding.
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Michele! Thank you for your kind and encouraging words. What a joy, truly, to celebrate Marcus and Aimee with you and yours. Hope to see you or work together again one day. May you be well.
Murph was genuinely friendly, easy to work with and professional- we had many comments from our guests about what a great bartender he was.
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Thank you, Sue! It was an honor to be invited to be a part of celebrating Dan & Danielle's wedding. I'm grateful for your clear communication, the ease of the event & simplicity of my work space, & the experiences meeting the lovely folks in attendance. It was a blast. Congratulations!
May you be well,
Murph.
When my wife and I hosted our 10th wedding anniversary party in a quaint community garden in the East Village of Manhattan we knew we needed someone to tend the bar. We were so lucky that Ben was available. He took care of the cocktail menu, served our guests well and my wife and I were able to enjoy the party even more knowing that this detail was taken care of. Ben is personable, responsible, knowledgeable and always good for a great laugh.
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Mister Guy!
Thanx so much, brother, for your kind (& dare I say true?) words. 'Twas a blast to work with & for you. Look forward to seeing you when I make it back to NYC. May you be well.
Cheers,
Murph.
He is an awesome individual. Great personality and extremely professional!! Plus a lot of fun. His ability to remember names of the guest was incredible. We swear he turned water into endless amounts of gin and vodka!!!
Response from Murph Tends Bar:
Thanx, Stacy!! Remember when we ran out of lemons & started making Limedrop shots?! The most beautiful thing about this is that we were strangers, then contract partners, & then friends. You & yours are a huge part of why I do this. Peace & love, Gilbert Family!! Here's to many more celebrations!
