Welcome to Westchester County's Premier Showcase Bartending School!

Professional Bartending Training Today to Meet the Challenges of Tomorrow

At our Westchester County Bartending School you will NOT find: plastic glassware or plastic ice. There are no garnishes made of square sponges or construction paper. Nor are there fake labels on our bottles! No corners cut or expenses spared.

Our Westchester County Bartending School is focused on providing YOU with professional, ethical, and competent bartending skill sets. We are committed to excellence in leadership, professionalism in training, and dedication to responsible alcohol training and serving.

State-of-the-Art Bartending Classrooms

Our bartending students gain the skills needed to prepare a complete array of cocktails, including blender drinks, specialty items such as international coffees, wines and champagnes. Our Instructors educate you in the finesse of perfecting a cocktail. In-depth bartender training involving the history, the techniques and more!

APB features professional bartending equipment, based in a real barroom environment. Real barroom environment means that our facility was designed to look, have the feel and be equipped like any modern day bar/tavern or club. If you have done your research, most of the other bartending schools in New York brag that they have "State-of-the-Art facilities and equipment". Not true!

These same bartending schools are charging you a small fortune to attend their bartending classes. And what are you really offered? How about some cheap plastic cocktail glasses, sponge or construction paper garnishes and maybe plastic ice cubes with no sinks. Do they have you dump your drinks in pails? And why would they do this? Simply put, they are playing upon your inexperience. That in itself says something about the "ethics" they believe in and teach.

How do you learn to properly handle glassware with plastic cups? Will you be looking for a sponge / construction paper as a garnish in the real world of bartending? How do you learn the effects of ice with plastic cubes? Or how to operate efficently behind a bar when they don't even provide a sink?. How about the equipment and facility? Is it old, run down? Are the bars warped, chipped or cracked? Is this real bartending training?

Are the sinks old, rusty and dented? Are the liquor labels some cheap Xerox copies held on with shipping tape? Are the manuals outdated, black & white, extra large fonts to take up space? This is what they call REAL BARROOM ENVIRONMENT? So, why are they charging YOU SO MUCH MORE FOR SO MUCH LESS? Could it be they are preying upon your lack of knowledge? Are you really getting your monies worth? ABSOLUTELY NOT!

Think about the operating costs for a bartending school in New York city. Their overhead is astronomical and YOU'RE PAYING FOR IT! The Academy of Professional Bartending School had one goal, one vision. Create a curriculum that would supply all the necessary skills to acquire a professional bartending position. Create a curriculum and environment that is fun and easy to learn. And most of all make it affordable to all. We have succeeded!
