On May 20th, we held a Best Bartender of Volusia County contest. We invited bartenders from all over Volusia to volunteer to participate in our contest. The grand prize was $500 cash! We had a great turn-out that night, with some amazing talent. The bartenders who signed up had to create their own signature drink and pour them into samples for customers to try. Once the patrons tried each sample they then voted for their favorite bartender. 1st Place was Miss Jersey of City Limits with her signature drink, ‘The F*** Around and Find Out’. The customers not only loved the taste of the drink, but the name and the presentation. Other bartenders included Rick and Sara, from Bulldogs Pub in Deltona, they were close to winning with their creative and beautifully crafted drinks. We are very proud to have our Jersey voted the best bartender of Volusia County. It’s a proud moment for me and the staff. We will be hosting another one of these contests in the future, so all bartenders keep your eyes out!”
