Brandon Amador his area isn’t only by himself their is other people but he probably does the special drinks and they were taught to not be in each others way.

[@Mushting]

Probably a slow night. Bartending isn’t always this peaceful and relaxing.

[@Ghost200x]

@@Mushting Yea... this seems waaay too calm of a night... And not enough customers are trying to grab his attention

[@wyvertic]

Ghost200x In highclass bars, usually people sitting at the bar have their orders taken by the bartender. Otherwise your order will be taken by a server who gives the order to the bartender who prepares it. Also every bartender has their station called the stage. It’s where they work, if they need something someone else has, they can communicate. And it’s true that people can avoid each other. I do it all the time. At least that’s what I saw in central europe.

[@julietagracia4030]

[@Bennerz]

This is both a good and bad idea, bad because some people are idiots on Twitch and ruin shit for everyone and that also some people at the bar might not want to be broadcasted to the public, but I'd honestly watch this if it was just the camera pointed down at the workstation and behind the counter

For those wanting to do this, let me tell you a few things. not only do you need to have a good long term memory to memorize those cocktails, but also to be communicative as well as having a good foot work cause you need to be standing for long sensions. That's some great choreography lad, well played. I used to do this seasonally but it's a bit to hard for me. Also I don't know if u guys noticed but the groupes used to make espresso are 2 different sizes. Add that as well.. To conclude, simply amazing!

Sprite Corbett that’s the whole point of being a bartender. You get some drinks that are quick and easy and then other times, you get drink that take time and patience.

[@wayvak3330]

Sprite Corbett Are you a server? If the customer wants something quick then you recommend something easier to make. That’s your fault not the bartenders. Oh and if they have a round then the wait time is probably like 3 minutes, you get the cocktails done before they finish the round.

[@ASpriteBottle]

I served tables for a few years. I'm saying in a bar scenario he has that time there nice drinks, but as a server in a restaurant my goal is to flip that table so I wont even try to sell that drink unless they really want it. Also I like his confidence while making the drinks all the bartenders I've worked around always loved to do flare.

[@xlgubrel8243]

Sprite Corbett Have you noticed that he did 5 drinks on his own? That is pretty fast for all those to be done in 8 minutes. I’ve come across worse bartenders and he is the fastest so far.🙌🏽

On a busy Saturday night we will have 4-6 bartenders split between 3 wells. Usually 2 bartenders will be bar backs. In such a confined space. Gets quite messy sometimes but everyone I work with is skilled at what they do

On a busy night Im sure this can be seriously hectic or even stressy. But the POV also reveals how much routine you have, and with which tricks you may save a moment. The espresso add up for example. Saves at least 1 cup to clean. Do that 15 times and you have time for 3 more cocktails. Very cool!
