Class Schedule

Our classroom is set up like an actual bar. Students sit at the bar and watch instructors make each drink. The class is 25% lecture and 75% hands-on practice.

New Orleans is unlike any other bar market in America. Bourbon Street alone employs thousands of bartenders serving millions of visitors every year. But the real money is in the craft — the French Quarter's historic hotel bars, the Magazine Street neighborhood spots, and the upscale Warehouse District venues where serious cocktail culture thrives.
