Joshua Hayes (Flippy) - Fatty Arbuckles Pub

Joshua Hayes- "I would just like to say thank you to everyone who voted for me. I really love what I do, the bar I work at and the people I serve. There are so many amazing bartenders in this town I'm honored and humbled to be considered one of the best."

As someone who has Bartended and Bar Backed I understand just how crazy life is as a Bartender. At times it might seem like you never see the sun and it's very hard to make plans with family while working those crazy hours! Bartenders are often over looked but the most vital part of your night out! 

Whether it’s their drink mixing skills or their personality that draws you to them bartenders are a special breed! Not many people can work those crazy hours and put up with people who have been drinking for that long and still have a smile on their face and the energy to keep up with orders.

We had almost 10,000 votes throughout the week! Sorry for anyone not on the list we went 100% on nominations!

So we reached out to local bars for them to nominate the best bartenders around and below is the Winners...
