ABOUT US
BETTER THAN RESTAURANT-QUALITY COCKTAILS, TAILORED FOR YOUR EVENT
Hi, we’re Haleigh & Cody, a husband-wife duo based in Roswell, GA! We dreamt up Home Bar Network in the Spring of 2020 to bring the culture and craft of professional bartending to the world in a fun and approachable way. We are insanely passionate about cocktails, hospitality, bar culture, travel, and food.
We have a combined experience of 25+ years in the beverage industry and get so much joy from teaching people the art of imbibing.
🤔When the pandemic hit and bars closed, we thought, “How do we keep happy hour alive with our friends and regulars?”
-
1️⃣ Bars closed. ☹️
2️⃣ Our friends & regulars didn’t know how to make a proper cocktail. 😬
3️⃣ We have a video camera. 🎥
4️⃣ Let’s fix this and bring hospitality back home!
So, we started filming cocktail videos from our little studio apartment with the hopes of someday having our own cocktail show on TV!
We’ve been watching cooking shows for decades, it’s about time there was a network dedicated solely to craft cocktails, don’t you think?
-
What started as filming fun videos in our kitchen has morphed into a full-blown business teaching custom cocktail classes, hosting private parties & corporate events, and consulting for bars across Metro Atlanta.
-
And don’t forget to follow us on all social platforms @homebarnetwork share with your friends so we can spread our cocktail love around the world.
RAISING THE BAR ON HOSPITALITY
Cocktail culture and bringing people together is our passion and we infuse that energy into every aspect of our business.
WHY CHOOSE HOME BAR NETWORK?
-
Most mobile bar companies employ temp or untrained bartenders to pour basic drinks using store bought mixers. Here’s why we’re different.
The HBN team is led by husband-wife bar pros, Cody and Haleigh Brown with over two decades of professional bar experience. We exclusively hire bartenders with a minimum of 5 years experience in high-volume craft cocktail bars, whom we personally know and have trained.
-
The difference between a good cocktail and a GREAT cocktail more often than not has to do with the freshness of the ingredients.
95% of mobile bartenders aren’t using fresh squeezed juices, all-natural ingredients, or handcrafted syrups. Don’t fall for the same old bartending services! Your event deserves the very best. Your guests deserve expertly-crafted cocktails they’ll remember and actually enjoy!
-
The term “craft cocktails” is often overused, describing drinks with zero merit. We’re looking at you, vodka, peach schnapps, sprite, & cranberry. We’re here to bring meaning back to the category.
It’s hard to even find a bar that fresh squeezes their citrus (absolutely critical), yet a margarita is still gonna cost you upwards of $12-$16. What a rip off!
Don’t waste your money on low-quality cocktails — hire Home Bar Network!
