Thank you, Angela! Because of you, we were able to enjoy our celebration.
She showed up early to set everything up and did a great job
They spoke with the wedding coordinator and it was agreed that they would be there at 2pm. 2pm came and went. They said they would be there at 3pm. 3pm came and went and they were not there. 4pm came and went and they were not there. They finally showed up at 4:15. About 15 minutes before service was about to start. Luckily our caterer was there setting up and I had to pay them an additional $300 to get the bar area set up and drinks on ice so they would be cold in time. Communication was very lacking and at one point on the day of the event they stopped answering their phone. We had no clue if they were really showing up or not. Stress levels were at an all time high, because we had to have licensed bartenders in order to serve alcohol.
Only 3 people showed up and I had over 200 guest. They left without finishing cleaning up and didn’t even say they were leaving. I met with the staff prior to event. Toast was never done money wasted for champagne. Very disappointed in the service.
Angela did an incredible job at the baby shower that we hosted for my daughter this past weekend. We only did a quick walkthrough of the house and what we needed and she took it from there. Whether it was serving mimosas, replenishing food, clearing guests plates or washing the dishes, she was a total pro. She was proactive, friendly, and did a great job of anticipating our needs. What's more? She did it all with a smile. The next time we're looking for a server, you can bet we're booking Angela!
Thirst busters were excellent in their help!! They arrived before time and helped to set up everything just in time!! I can’t thank them enough for all that they did!! Highly recommended!!
Angela was a Godsend! She arrived early and jumped right in to assist us. Heated up all the food, helped put out appetizers, food, desserts, cleared dishes, put remaining food in containers and in the refrigerator. Washed all the dishes while we were able to enjoy family time together playing games, singing karaoke and making hot chocolate from the cocoa bar. She even took our family group photo! Such a pleasant personality and kind individual. We thoroughly appreciated her services. I would recommend Angela to anyone and hope to use her when we have business events in the future.
Angela was just the right person for our 60 person cocktail party. She came early and got comfortable at the bar we had started to set up. She prepped garnishes and offered to help in other ways too.
Angela and Zac were incredible. We had 350 guests and both of our bars were cranking for 5 hours. They kept everything flowing with smiles and happy quests. It was a pleasure to partner with Thirst Busters and I would highly recommend them for any event you are hosting. We will be working with them again next year!
Angela and I communicated multiple times and she was sure to ask exactly what we were looking for. She and the other waitress arrived early, worked hard the entire time and checked in before leaving. I would recommend Thirst Busters to anyone!
This was the first time we used Gig Salad and Thirst Busters, both were great! Angela was very quick to respond to all my questions, and believe me I had a ton. Very professional and was kind enough to help with anything I asked of them. I can highly recommend Angela and her team!!!
Angela was punctual and professional, right mix if friendly & appropriate. She made standard drinks (like old fashioned, Negroni) and her own drinks based on what guests described they liked. One fruity (peach & cranberry I think) drink was a huge hit and she also made a couple kiddie cocktails. I highly recommend Thirst Busters for your event.
Angela was very helpful, efficient, patient and sanitary. She came on time and jumped right in. And when I realized the station was not setup correctly she calmly asked if I would like it changed. We did and from there everything went smoothly. I will keep her as a first priority contact for bartending and if I ever need waitstaff again.
Angela did a wonderful professional job! We loved her ability to create special drinks for us! We will definitely hire her again!
Angela arrived on time and was prepared to jump in and do whatever was needed. The group really enjoyed her and her bartending skills and they plan on using her for future events.
I totally recommend Angela for any event you might have.
Angela was kind and attentive. She set up the bar and garnishes like the pro she is. Will def book again.
We hired Angela for our Gatsby Party and featured Old Fashioneds as our drink. She made it as perfect as any five-star steakhouse. I am so impressed.
She was very personable and versatile. She just jumped right in and took care of everything. I will definitely hire her again. She was an excellent bartender.
Our bartender was amazing! I would highly recommend her for your event!
Angela was an excellent bartender at my wedding this past Saturday.
Angela made great drink.
I will recommend her all the time.
She handled our large party very well!
