Bottom line, if you are reading this as a testimonial, stop thinking and start booking.  I booked the wicked pub crawl as a bachelor party ‘event’ and had 17 people in attendance, everyone had a blast.

The Planning was so easy.  I mostly spoke to Brittany and Kate, they always responded quickly and answered any/all questions that I had.  The entire event is planned out for you, the only thing you need to do is decide which bars you want to visit.  Starting with dinner, the food was much better than we anticipated.  Actually, the food was good.  Our server (Emily) was awesome.  

The Party Bus was great, the entertainment was great, the bars we did visit were all fun.  Besides our starting point, we ended up going to 3 of the bars.  At all three, we were always served quickly and treated really well.  It was a great time.

I can’t think of anything constructive to say that would have made the night better.

Thanks again for setting up the open bar at Jakes.  There were no issues whatsoever and everyone had a great time. Bartenders and Danny (guy working the door) were taking care of us the whole night. I think we even ran into a bachelorette party that was doing your bar crawl and that made it a little more crazy lol. It was a perfect way to kick off the evening.

Thanks again!

Thank you very much.  The bachelor party was a great success!  The bar and and bartender were terrific, and the entertainment was exceptional.  Tatiana and Kim exceeded all expectations.  I appreciate you guys putting it together with less than two weeks notice.  

Thanks again, and I will definitely recommend your service in the future.

The party was great.  I really appreciate what you guys did for us.  We will most certainly use you guys in the future.

The party was in a word awesome. Thanks to everyone from the “worker bees” who planned everything to Nick at Down The Hatch. We never waited for a drink and even though the party was booked only a week in advance it went off without a hitch. 


It was great.  I have no complaints.  The venue and location were great.  When I first arrived, I spoke with everyone about how it would go for the day and everyone was helpful.  Food was good.  I will definitely use Eat, Drink & Be Merry again for my next party in NYC and possibly that venue as well.  I know the bartender works for the bar and not with you, but the bartender, Erin, was exceptional.  Rave reviews for her.  Bouncers were good as well.

I couldn’t have asked for anything better.  It was awesome to see Christine at the bar as well.  I hope the people from the party weren’t too annoying.

Thanks for everything!


Bachelor Party

The party went great and you guys were extremely helpful along the way;  always prompt with your responses, willing to work with us for our specific needs, and made the whole process go very smoothly from beginning to end.
Thanks again!

Christine, Kate, Niki & Cortney,

Our party went more perfectly than I could have imagined. All of the staff at The Stumble Inn (Vanessa, Maggie and even Manny at the door) were extremely helpful getting us up and running. Tony was an excellent driver and really helped to make our night as stress free as possible. Overall, I would recommend your service to just about anyone looking to have a great experience in NYC. If I find myself planning another bachelor party, I’ll be sure to contact you guys again.

 

Thanks,

Etienne

Girls-

The party went great — I honestly didn’t expect the food to be as good (but everyone seemed to have loved it)……the service at the bar was awesome (from bartender, to greeter, to the bouncer at the door)…..and the planning process was smooth thanks to  Eat, Drink & Be Merry family!!   Definitely will use you again next time I plan a party in NYC!

 

What a great experience – thank you!  From the beginning – all of you put up with my constant questions, changing my mind, adding things, money mishaps…thank you for putting up with that! 

 The execution was excellent  – if there were any problems at all it was due to my party and their tardiness (in spite of the warnings all around about being on time!).  The ladies at Down the Hatch were outstanding and catered to us.  The limo driver was excellent.  The bartenders were all great as were the bars we were able to make it to .  The girls loved the dancers (particularly the girl – she was a real ‘performer’ in contrast to the fella – who, in fairness, didn’t actually dance much probably because we were too busy cowering in a corner – LOL).

 What a great way to plan a night like that – let you do it for us – you guys were organized and professional – even in light of all our (caused by my party) mishaps. 

 I don’t think there’s a thing I could complain about or suggest.

If I had another such occasion to plan I would definitely use your company and I would absolutely recommend your company to someone else!

Thank you!

Dawn


Bachelor Party Bar Crawl

April 29, 2011

To Christine, Kate, Niki and Cortney, 

 

thank you so much for everything!  The bachelor party was a hit and we all had an amazing time.  I would recommend you guys to anyone that is looking for a fun evening in the City!  The bars were great and fun.  The atmosphere was second to none and everyone that we encountered along the way was friendly and so helpful.  I cannot say enough about it and I know all 17 guys felt the same way.  

Thanks again:-)

Chris C.


My bachelor party was awesome. Our limo was a half hour late my brother called the manager of the stumble inn he told us it was no problem. He met us at the door sat us down and told us the best bars to go to after we left. The food was amazing and every employee at all the bars we went to was professional and accommodating. We have no problem getting drinks and package for the night was unbeatable. 2 thumbs up from me and all the guys. Would definitely do this again!

 

Everything went very well thank you! You guys were great with all the follow up before I booked the party right up to the day before it, so thank you. Chris was also great to have out the time we had him and kept us well informed on what was going on. Jon at the Gin Mill was also helpful in getting us set up through our first hour and a half there. I also appreciated he was able to get us $75 off each of the two guys that backed out last minute.
It was nice of Cortney to stop by to make sure everything was going ok too. All in all, I/we had no complaints throughout the night and would definitely book another party with you when the opportunity came up or be very comfortable referring you to others. Thank you again for making it a great night!

All the best,

Mat

The party went very well, thank you.  The staff was excellent and the venue was perfect for our event.  I appreciate everyone’s help at ED&BM and at Jake’s Dilemma for making this a success.

Regards,

Dear Christine, Kate, Niki and Cortney,

Thanks in large part to you guys, I think the event was a huge success, and I have no complaints at all. Booking was super-easy, the venue was pretty conveniently located for all of us visiting the city, and the service (food/drink) was definitely more than I could have asked for. Eric was awesome behind the bar and made sure we were comfortable throughout the night.

One constructive thought which you can take or leave, since it’s not really a huge deal:

I thought the food turned out really well, but it might be nice in the future if you guys had a way to highlight appetizers as “favorites” and “vegetarian”. At least it would have made my life a little easier, since all of the appetizers seemed like they’d be good on paper, and I had to accommodate a few vegetarians. Here’s a ranking of what I think were the favorites from our event:

1. Buffalo Wings (these were awesome by the way)

2. Fried Calamari (really good…and were pretty much eaten immediately)

3. Pizza Bites (old standard)

4. Beef Sate Strips (the beef was a little chewy, but good)

5. Jalepeno Poppers (I liked them, but some did not)

Lastly, I heard quite a few complements about the sound track. We were thinking of bringing our own music, but I”m pretty happy we didn’t because the music used was pretty much perfect.

Thanks again. I’ll be sure to recommend you guys to anyone planning similar types of events in the future.

Sincerely,

Craig

The party was absolutely perfect i couldn’t have asked for anything better or more to happen everything went smooth and everyone had a good time! Thanks!


The Eat Drink and Be Merry Bachelor Party experience is top notch. I started my best man work looking to build a party from scratch, which proved to be costly both on my time and money. After looking around on the internet I found Eat Drink and Be Merry and gave them a call. From that moment the service was stellar, everyone was cheery and helpful from the get go. The steaks at the Gin Mill were awesome, the show in the limo was UNMATCHED, the remaining bars were fantastic. Two thumbs up all around. If you are thinking about doing this, go for it.

Kris

Everything was amazing!! Everyone had so much fun and the private room was PERFECT! Having our own bathroom back there was a plus as well. I will for sure be referring you guys to anyone who needs a perfectly planned party! Thanks!!!

Hi Christine,

I just want to say THANK YOU for all of your help during the bachelorette planning process. Friday night was one of the best nights we have EVER HAD! We felt like celebrities and the Bride-to-Be absolutely love it!! Thank you, thank you, thank you for all of your help over the past few months and especially the day of the event. I know I was a little skeptical and nervous about how the night was going to pan out, but talking to you made me feel 100% percent comfortable when the time came to make the decision. It truly was a pleasure working with you and I will be sure to recommend Eat, Drink, & Be Merry to anyone looking to have a blast in NYC!

Thanks again,

Angela
