Chicago Bar Shop has a beautiful fully functional 24′ bar, and will be hosting a variety of classes.

Mixing technical teachings with lighthearted history and a dash of liquor/bartending/tool background, our classes are just as entertaining as they are educational. With a wide range of subject matter, Chicago Bar Shop mixology classes cover a variety of hand crafted cocktails including the classics and pre-prohibition era libations to modern trends and current best sellers. From history to professional tips and techniques, our pro bartenders will teach you how to shake, muddle, stir, and strain your way into cocktail making perfection (or at least you end up with a tasty drink).

Cocktail Making Classes are available as scheduled, by request, and also as private instruction or events at Chicago Bar Shop or your location. Mixology classes are great team building events, meeting icebreakers, client entertaining ideas, fun couples dates, and unique bachelor or bachelorette party starters and even birthday party mixology events.

We will also have a seasonally rotating schedule of whiskey, wine, craft cocktail and craft beer tasting classes held at our location as well as several neighborhood bars and restaurants. Custom packages are available, and we can additionally provide dinner, buffet, or appetizer options along with your mixology class event in Chicago.
