I have multiple years of experience with every kind of event from black-tie to crazy theme parties. I can provide the liquor, mixers, and garnishes, and this will be included in the total price of my services (must let me know at time of booking). I can also help clients create specialty or theme cocktail menus for their event if needed.
*Any event over 60 miles outside of Morris County, and/or have bridge/tunnel tolls, will occur additional cost.
Tipping: A gratuity is customary and you may choose from 2 options (must be stated prior):
1). Guest Gratuity - No Charge: I will provide a tip jar.
**2). Host Gratuity - $2 per guest/hr ($20/h minimum): No tip jar will be set up during event.
Nick took such good care of us and our guests - he arrived plenty before the party to get ready to go, was quick and efficient, and willing to jump in and help with anything to make sure everyone had a great time. Nothing but rave reviews from everyone. The best bartender in the area, hands down.
Response from Nick Cirillo:
It was such a pleasure, as always, being a part of your Pride event and Andy's birthday. Thank you again!!!
Nick bartended my 50th birthday party. He did a great job keeping a group of 60 or so guests drinking steadily from a preset list of three specialty cocktails. We communicated regularly before the event and I felt confident we had all the drinks, alcohol, and mixers squared away beforehand. Nick got along well with all the guests and made lots of awesome cocktails.
Response from Nick Cirillo:
Hey Bill! Thank you so much for the great review! I had a blast and glad you and your guests did too!
If there were more stars to give, I would! Nick was fantastic… on time and an all around pro.
When multiple guests ask for the bartender’s contact information, you know he was a winner!
Nick couldn't have been better. He was super helpful and responsive from the start! My guests all loved his personality and he made the best drinks! We will ABSOLUTELY use Nick again!
Hired Nick for a private party and he was so awesome!!! He is super nice and friendly and went above and beyond to create a cocktail list and ensure that we had a great party. I would use him again in a heartbeat!
Nick was amazing!! Great demeanor and so cute!! So accessible and reliable!! Want to have another party just so I can hane him back !!!!
Response from Nick Cirillo:
Thank you for such a sweet review! I had so much fun teaching the ladies some cocktails!!!
Nick was not able to attend the my event himself. But he was able to connect me with 2 very qualified and professional replacement bartenders. They were great, and our event was a total success!
Response from Nick Cirillo:

OMG! Where can should I start, Nick was so awesome. I planned my own party and came walked in ready to work. Nick is very professional. Nick arrived an hour before my party and helped me so much. The little things I needed he left and went to the store to get them. Nick is super sweet, as he is working he is checking on me making sure I was OK and not stressed out. All my guest said he was great and some clicked with him from the beginning. Nick even dressed my theme. Nick is so my go to bartender all day every day and can not wait to plan another event so I can hire Nick again. Again, Nick is the bestest!
Price Range: $250 and up (weekend events begin at $350)
Gig Length: 240 - 480 minutes

I will arrive at least 1 hour prior to start time to set-up and remain at the event site 30 minutes after the event ends to clean up.
I can provide alcohol, mixers, ice, glassware and a portable bar if needed. Please inform me of any needed extras when requesting a quote.
I have been in the hospitality industry for over 20 years, with over 15 of those years devoted to bartending. I have been employed in all areas of the industry from cocktail bars to restaurants to high volume nightclubs, so I feel very comfortable working backyard parties to massive events. I like to meet with the clients prior to the event to go over every detail so they can go to their event confidently knowing they have a professional bartender at their service. I can also help the client create signature drinks for their event, and even help in the creation of a cocktail menu.
