So my partner and I had a low key COVID wedding last September for 10 people (all COVID allowed) but still wanted to have a nice low key reception with a private bartender so we hired the incredible Michael Pez who created signature cocktails to suit everyone's drink tastes and the guests raved to us for days afterwards. This past weekend we celebrated our 1 year anniversary but we were now allowed to have larger gatherings so we hosted a reception to celebrate our nuptials and without hesitation we asked the amazing Michael Pez if he would be our bartender only this time it would be for 50+ people so a bit of a bigger task but he was totally up for the challenge and he more than delivered. With signature cocktails, shots and a full bar our guests raved about his services and continue to us as well. Whether you need a bartender for a small intimate gathering or a larger event Michael Pez comes through with an inviting personality combined with a broad mixology knowledge to be able to satisfy any kind of bartending needs as he's now done for us with two very different kinds of events with the same amazing results. Thanks for always being the best Michael!

Choosing Michael as our mixologist was the best decision we made for our party! From his unique cocktail ideas to the level of professionalism he displayed, I felt reassured that our bar was going to be in good hands. He's very friendly, helpful, and extremely communicative. Our guests loved him, we loved him, and we cannot wait to work with him again! Thanks again, Michael!

Michael was the highlight of my birthday party! He suggested amazing signature cocktails (with all of my favourite alcohols), came with a beautiful, clean set up and brought his own garnishes. He made the entire experience very immersive and fun. Everyone is still talking about the “fun mixologist” from my party. I have and will continue to recommend him to all family and friends.

Mike was the main attraction of my birthday party and he certainly didn't disappoint. The cocktails were unique, the attention to detail impeccable, and his ability to add a truly intimate mixology experience is unmatched. My friends have been nonstop talking about the fun we had thanks to Mike!

Michael Pez was the bartender at my 50th birthday celebration. My guest couldn’t stop complementing me on the drinks and the fantastic bartender! Michael showed up with bitters, lemon’s, limes, fresh herbs and infused syrups along with Michael’s professionalism and friendly vibes completely elevated the whole bar experience. The service is 10’s across the board! I would highly recommended Michael to anyone looking for that elevated experience.
