Q&A

Q: What should I wear to the Pendergast Cocktail College classes?

A: You can keep it casual! Most folks wear nice jeans and a fun top. Just remember, you’ll be mixing drinks, so maybe avoid anything too fancy that you wouldn’t want to get spilled on. Comfortable shoes are a must since you’ll be standing and working at the bar for a bit. Oh, and bring a light jacket – it can get a bit chilly in the Libations Lab!

Q: Is there an age limit for the Pendergast Cocktail College classes?

A: Yes, participants must be 21 or older to join the Pendergast Cocktail College classes since you’ll be consuming alcohol. If you're considering this as a gift for someone, just make sure they meet the age requirement. It’s a fantastic experience for anyone who loves cocktails and wants to learn more about mixology!

Q: How is parking at Tom's Town for the cocktail class?

A: Tom's Town has a small parking lot right next to the distillery, but it can fill up fast, especially on class nights. I'd recommend arriving early or considering street parking nearby. Just keep an eye on the signs to avoid any tickets. If you're planning on drinking, maybe Uber or a rideshare is a good idea too!

Just took my first cocktail class at Tom's Town, and it was amazing!

I went to the Pendergast Cocktail College last week, and it was such a blast! The whole atmosphere in the Libations Lab is super fun, and I loved learning how to craft three different cocktails. We made a bourbon smash, a gin fizz, and a seasonal vodka drink. The cheese board they included was a nice touch too! Definitely a unique gift idea for my friends who love cocktails.

Thinking about gifting the Pendergast Cocktail College experience!

I’m considering getting a pair of tickets for my husband and me to the Pendergast Cocktail College. We both love trying new cocktails, and the idea of learning some cocktail history sounds awesome! Does anyone recommend this for beginners? Also, how difficult are the cocktails to make?
