The Private Pour was officially born in 2025, on our founder’s birthday, as a small side hustle with a bar kit, a love for great cocktails, and a few parties around Las Vegas.
Things escalated.
Birthday parties turned into dinner parties. Dinner parties turned into weddings, corporate events, and celebrations all over the city. Somewhere along the way, the side hustle became a full-fledged business, and The Private Pour became less about simply sending a bartender to a party and more about bringing a great cocktail bar wherever the party happens to be.
Our roots are firmly planted in craft cocktail culture. We love the classics, obsess over the modern classics, care probably a little too much about good ice, and firmly believe fresh citrus belongs in a cocktail. Our bartenders come from some of the best bars and hospitality programs in Las Vegas, bringing serious technique without taking themselves too seriously.
We’ve also built relationships with some fantastic Las Vegas businesses and hospitality partners. From the ice in the glass to the citrus squeezed behind the bar, we work with local partners who care about their craft as much as we care about ours.
Today, The Private Pour has grown well beyond the original bar kit. We offer full cocktail experiences, small-bites catering, Champagne and Espresso Martini Towers, Michelada Bars, custom Cocktail Explosions, Bartender by the Hour service, and whatever fun idea we decide to tackle next.
Some events call for fifty Espresso Martinis. Others call for a beautifully stirred Old Fashioned and twelve people around a dinner table.
We like both.
At the end of the day, our philosophy is pretty straightforward:
Make great drinks. Know your craft. Take care of people. Have a damn good time doing it.
