BAR RO'D™ Mobile Bartending & Event Planning

al service. BAR RO'D doesn't just exceed my expectations, they blow my mind with their efficiency, professionalism, and inexplicable charm. Their presentation is flawless and always reflects their client's vision. They are expert mixologists, (yes, delicious drinks) with flawless service. The last time Ro and Devo pulled up to my venue, I started applauding before they were out of their vehicle because their mere arrival assured a successful night. I love knowing like-minded service professionals that pour their heart and soul into their work and will continue to applaud Ro, Devo, and their team on every encounter.

understatement. With their help, I got to enjoy a party thrown at my own home for the first time ever. They arrived on time, set up and made sure all of our guests were happy, kept our buffet going, and left after cleaning up at the end of the night. They left me with a clean home and little to do- it was amazing after hosting 60 people! The cost for having them purchase the alcohol and arrive with it was also spot on- and I didn’t have to run to the store 5 times in preparation for party or spend hours cutting limes, lemons, etc. I am quite particular and have an event planning background which comes with high standards- from here on out, no party at my home will be without Bar RO’D! They would be well suited for any event, including a wedding.

asked for anything better! They were spot on with the amount of alcohol and drinks we needed for our guests! They were total professionals and kept the drinks flowing! Would absolutely recommend!!!

were originally going to attempt to purchase all the alcohol, transport the ice, create cocktails, etc. but Ro took care of all of that. She even used the cocktail napkins I had gotten ahead of myself purchasing so that they wouldn’t go to waste. Ro was quick to respond to any inquiries, very knowledgeable, and easy to communicate with through the whole experience. During the planning phase, Ro thought about every little detail and it meant so much that she offered to additionally purchase and serve our specialty sodas: Inka Cola and Cheerwine because we wanted to incorporate the sodas that represented some of our backgrounds. On the day of the wedding, Ro and Devo were excellent- I had several of my guests compliment the delicious drinks they were serving up and also how much they enjoyed the professional, friendly customer service Ro and Devo brought to the table. We strongly recommend their services as they truly will take charge of all things drink-related. Truly, there is enough to worry about during a wedding but trusting Bar Ro was one of our best decisions

d I loved the extra care they gave me to me and my husband during our wedding. We now want them to be part of our major celebrations in the future!

so friendly and just brought a great energy. They even brought all the mixers, water, and ice so we didn't have to worry about a thing. Definitely hire them for your event!!!

udget I had. The day of the event her and Devo were on time, professional and very friendly. Their mobile bar was beautiful and their custom sign they helped make made it feel more a part of the décor! I never saw a line at the bar and never had to worry about them once the whole day which eased my mind knowing they had their part taken care of! I would without a doubt recommend BAR RO’D for your event! Thank you for helping make our day so wonderful!!! - Katie

nsure safety was our #1 priority when it comes to serving our guests but also promoting a fun atmosphere. They took on other roles at our event throughout the night to ensure our event was running smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a better team! 10 out of 10! They are more than just a bar service, we consider them family.

at has no idea about alcohol and what to buy and bring, they are experienced and knew what people would like and how much they would drink from experience. Everyone enjoyed the night and it was one less thing to worry about. I would definitely use them in the future for any event I may have. Hats off to to Bar Ro'd mobile bartending.

was perfection. We were celebrating our 40th high school reunion at a County Police Association Hall and needed bar services to support 150 classmates. I contacted Ro Lin through the Thumbtack website and from Day-1 what should have been a typical client and vendor experience instead felt like a collaboration. Ro Lin was so helpful offering recommendations to me, a complete novice party bar service planner. She helped me determine, what drinks to order based on what was popular for the DC Metro Area, particularly our geographical area of Manassas, VA. She also provided guidance with quantity, individual drink costs and bar decoration options. All of which turned out to be spot on for our event. Did I mention accommodating a 24-hour prior to the event complete change in the type of bar service, delivered flawlessly? The night of our reunion, you could not ask for a more professional and friendly staff. Team Bar Ro’D setup two bars expertly using a bar design that Ro Lin helped me create and that fit perfectly with the decorations our Reunion Committee had already put up for the event. Needless to say, the event went off without a hitch, thanks directly in part to Bar Ro’D! I cannot begin to tell you how many compliments I received from classmates about the quality of their drinks as well as the service. I will end this review with a sincere “thank you” to Ro Lin and Devo, and also by stating the only Mobile Bar service at any future events that I am in charge of planning or recommending to my friends and family, will be BAR RO'D™️

was truly a night to remember thanks to them!

called before the event to review details and everything was perfectly executed. No detail was forgotten including a signature cocktail/mocktail for the kids. My guests were thoroughly impressed! Thank you BAR RO’D for another amazing experience!

I absolutely loved having Ro, Devo, and Cedric serve drinks at the wedding. Our guests raves about the taste and quality of the liquor. During our consultation phone call, Ro expertly recommended what types of drinks and the quantities that would be appropriate for a wedding of our size — her estimate was spot on. We could not have pulled our wedding together without her, and we most definitely will be hiding Bar’od again for any of our bartending needs. Thanks Ro and team!!!

ad me (and everyone else) coming back to the bar drink after drink. We had our event start a little late because of a party that was still going on before ours, and Bar Ro’d was flexible to stay a bit later. I am absolutely happy with them and will always come back to them in the future (and totally recommend them for awesome bartending!!)

the drinks were good!!! My guests and parents were like where did you find them! I just smile and I’m so so happy I hired them! The best!!!!!!

d never used a mobile bartending service before, so I didn’t know what to expect; however, Ro and Devo - the owners and their team – Adam and Tom did not disappoint. When they arrived, I showed them where they needed to set up and they were off to the races. They are professional, courtesy and they provide an outstanding customer experience, and of course they are amazing mixologists. Our guests were having such a great time, that we asked them to stay an additional hour and Ro with a smile on her face - said absolutely! They really saved me because my guests were not ready to leave yet. They left the bar area spotless. I will be a client for life! I would highly recommend them!

ve). Everyone was so nice, was remembering what people were drinking, and they even came over to me and my husband multiple times during dinner to see if we needed anything. Oh and the signature cocktails were INCREDIBLE. You can tell they love their job, and I loved working with them.

friendly and gregarious (just exactly the sort of fun and positive energy you want at an event!), executed everything we asked of them to a tee (including a list of five pretty complicated specialty cocktails)... and even beyond that, throughout the night they often proactively asked about and worked on things that we honestly wouldn't have even thought of ourselves, but that ended up being SO helpful. They were seriously so incredible, my husband and I couldn't stop talking about how great they were. I feel like they took our event from an 8 to 10! My husband and I hired Bar Ro'd for bartending and food service for our formal anniversary party/vow renewal with approximately 70 guests. We coordinated the event ourselves with no planner or coordinator or caterer. We cooked ourselves, had family members cook, and got items from several different restaurants—putting all of it together ourselves—and to be honest, we had no idea what we were getting ourselves into doing it this way. Up until the moment Bar Ro'd arrived, it was looking like things might be headed for disaster... but Bar Ro'd totally saved the day. They helped with EVERYTHING, well beyond what we had imagined when hiring them, and the dinner (passed hors d'oeuvres then a buffet) ended up going *perfectly.* I feel like I haven't focused enough on the "bar" part yet, given that's their specialty—the bar was amazing. My husband and I wanted the drink menu for this event to have all of our favorite cocktails: a pomegranate mojito, a Moscow mule, a boulevardier, a strawberry margarita, and a gin fizz with fresh rosemary and egg white. Bar Ro'd was totally game for this menu from the start, provided everything we needed, and made each of the cocktails beautifully throughout the night. The bar was a HIT! The actual physical bar itself, actually, was also a hit — the custom bar front panel looked amazing, and even more so when the sun set and it lit up! All in all, hiring Bar Ro'd was one of the absolute best decisions we made for this event. And, like, we made a lot of great decisions—it was a really cool event ;) But seriously, Bar Ro'd took it to another level. I would hire them again in a heartbeat, and I will be recommending them to anyone and everyone looking for bar services (or event staffing in general). Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU, Ro, Devo, Adam, Alison, and Debrah — you were all amazing, my husband and I are incredibly grateful!

g, event set up, food service, and event clean up. Her team was punctual, polite, and professional. Most of all, they had such a great reputation with our venue that we had no worries about how smoothly things were going to go. we are DEFINITELY using Bar Ro'd's services again for our future events!!!!

r text and some phone calls to understand my needs for bartending an engagement party, even including pictures and so much great info! The expertise that Ro brings to the table is unmatched, down to the recommendations of using small water bottles instead of large! Who would have thought!!! Ro and I went over the details for a few weeks, tweaking the services that I wanted, and was so helpful in figuring out what I needed. There are so many reasons to hire Bar RO’D, but the most significant to me was actually Ro and Devo themselves. Not only are they experienced bartenders, but they have quite literally the best personalities ever. They were more than just bartenders--they were part of our party. More so, they were actually the backbone of our event. They came exactly on time, set up their beautiful bar, which I may add is SO CLEAN. As someone who always worries about cleanliness, this was key. They brought lined coolers with clean and sorted ice. They were constantly wiping down the bar and tables. It truly could not have been more clean and safe. They even designed a drink menu with me and had them on the tables! As the host, I was focused on many other things. They handled everything, even helping us set up a little self serve bar when they left. I scheduled 4 hours of bartending, but honestly I would recommend 6 hours if you are throwing a longer party. Ro and Devo are some of the best people I have had the pleasure of meeting. I was over at the bar talking to them for so long, and I barely even drink!!! In summary, this company is very well priced, extremely helpful in determining what you need and not overcharging you. They do absolutely everything, you just simply need to open the door and let them in! Without them, I honestly would have had to bartend myself, and that would have been terrible. Again, I cannot emphasize enough that Ro and Devo themselves are the life of the party, and engage with your guests and truly make everyone feel comfortable! I know I will be using them always and forever, and I hope everyone who sees this does also.

s, Adam and Ro, were incredible. They managed to cater an event of 60 people with only three days notice and everyone highlighted how great they were. They were professional, skilled, and incredibly friendly. They took care of everything on their end and all I had to do was pick what drinks to serve. Their service is great and affordable. And for a final highlight, Adam was kind enough to help tidy up during the course of event - even picking up trash that he had no responsibility to help with. I could not be happier with their service and I hope to hire them the next time an event like this comes up.
