A Close Student to Tutor Ratio

Some mixology classes London courses can have up to 20 students per programme, but this can leave many feeling like they’re just a number. We want you to get the most out of the training, so we ensure we have no more than 8 students in each class. This gives you a better environment in which to learn and get the support you need.

Intensive Courses to get Certified FAST

The high-quality bartender training you’ll receive has been designed to get you up to speed on the elements covered in whichever bar professional training course you’ve chosen. Therefore, our mixology courses London programmes are all intensive. This means they either take place over three days (our advanced bartending course) or a week (our international mixology course London).

Become a Sought After Bartender

Thanks to our award-winning bartender course London programmes and our high-quality bartending training, you’ll be joining a bartending school that’s highly respected. We’ve built an international reputation for high-quality training, and the certification you’ll receive at the end of your course is recognised in over 60 countries worldwide. We’re extremely proud of our alumni, and they’re some of the most sought-after in the industry. We’ve even won awards for Best UK Bar School in 2018 and 2019 with top industry bodies.

Enjoy Flexible Training & Payments

We want our London bar school to be as inclusive as possible, so we have a range of courses for different levels of experience. This includes those people with no experience at all, those who want to progress in their bar career, those who would love to obtain steady bar work and anyone hoping to open a bar-related business. We also offer various payment plans, so check out our dates and prices to find a suitable option for your budget.

This mixology course is very well structured and sheds a lot of light on the techniques that go into making cocktails at a professional bar environment. It is the perfect combination of seriousness and fun at the same time! I learned a lot and would highly recommend to anyone wanting to join this field of work or even open their own bar!Manny is a great teacher, always giving that extra bit of effort and taking time to answer questions thoroughly. He’s also fun spirited and had amazing energy!

Best mixology/bartending course you can possibly take in 5 days. Manny is passionate and treats the craft like an artform. If you apply yourself, you will learn lots. Highly recommend to any aspiring bartenders!

I chose the 1 week intense course and I must say Manny was such a great instructor. He was very patient and tailors the course according to each persons requirement. He was super friendly and helpful with each of our queries. I would highly definitely recommend this course with Manny.

If you are someone like me who has a passion for making cocktails, I highly recommend taking this course....Outside of my degree as a university student, I took time this spring to explore and develop my new profound love for mixology.Today, I was awarded the International Mixology diploma from the Spirit Lab London Bartending Academy, approved by the Wine & Spirit Education Trust recognized in more than 70 countries worldwide.Despite my background, I extend my utmost gratitude to director Emanuele Mancini for accommodating me by being a demanding but fair mixology teacher challenging my skills both on and off the bar.Receiving this acknowledgment, meant more than the completion of a 5-day intensive spirit training course at the heart of the Marylebone district in London; it was a milestone in my ability to remain calm under pressure and build the confidence to face things outside of my comfort zone.If you are someone like me who is unsure due to inexperience, I can tell you that my 5-day journey to cocktail-making started in a foreign place to a young professional who can confidently push out multiple spirits at a high level.

I am so glad I chose the Spirit Lab to fulfil a dream of perfecting my skills, understanding and learning more about the art and history of cocktail making with Emanuele Mancini. It was a 5 day intensive course with a small group.Emanuele is clearly passionate about the industry and this really shows as he picks up on every detail and perfects you along the way. He is truly an inspiration and a leader in this industry. I loved his style of teaching and this made me more determined to succeed. I highly recommend the Spirit Lab as I am now more confident in making cocktails and will continue to ensure I take every opportunity to put my new skills to the test.Thank you Emanuele
