Frequently Asked Questions

Is this bar set good for beginners?

Absolutely! This 4-piece bar kit is a great starting point for beginners who are stocking their home bar or anyone looking to replace existing barware. It's also easy to use for all skill levels.

Which bar set is best for a beginner bartender?

This is a great question, but it depends on your existing bar! If you don't have any equipment yet, you may want to get a larger started kit and then add specific pieces you're missing as your mixology skills become more advanced. If you don't have any barware yet, this 4-piece kit is a good place to start.

What's the difference between a basic and a comprehensive bar set?

A basic set gives you a few pieces to get started, which is great if you're not sure what tools you need or if you just want to replace key equipment. However, you may not get everything you want with a basic set; a more comprehensive set allows you to make more cocktails right away.

What cocktails can I make with this kit? Is a 4-piece bar set enough to make most cocktails?

You can make hundreds of shaken cocktails with this 4-piece bartender kit:

Margarita
Whiskey Sour
Mai Tai
Cosmopolitan
Lemon Drop
Espresso Martini

and tons more. For completely smooth cocktails, we do recommend pairing this bar set with a fine strainer, but the 4-piece kit will get you started.

Can I make stirred cocktails with this set?

This bar kit is specifically designed for shaken cocktails. For stirred cocktails, we recommend a mixing glass, julep strainer, and bar spoon for optimal temperature and dilution control.

However, if you pair this kit with a bar spoon, you can still make lots of stirred cocktails like the Martini, Old Fashioned, and Negroni.

Are there any bar sets specifically designed for certain types of cocktails?

Sure! There are a ton of bar sets out there, catering to a variety of cocktails. Our 4-piece set will get you started with shaken cocktails, while our 10-piece stirred cocktail set has everything you need to make stirred drinks like Old Fashioneds and Manhattans. Our 14-piece set has equipment for both.

What are the key factors to consider when comparing different bar sets?

When deciding between different sets, think about the drinks you want to make and the tools you already have. Look at some cocktail recipes and see what equipment they call for, and then pick a set that will help you make the cocktails you're more drawn to.

What types of cocktail glasses should I pair with my bar set?

Different cocktails call for different glassware! If you're not sure what to start, you can't go wrong with good sets of rocks glasses, coupes or Nick & Nora glasses, and highball glasses.

Is it better to buy a complete bar set or individual tools?

This is really a personal choice and depends on what you have already in your bar. Buying bar sets can save you money compared to buying individual pieces, so we recommend starting with a set and then filling in the gaps buy adding bar tools and accessories you may be missing.

Can I customize or build my own bar set with individual tools? Can I buy additional tools later?

You certainly can! You can buy tools as you go, or you can begin with our 4-piece bar set (which will save you money vs. buying the pieces individually) and then continue to add equipment over time.

If you want to buy several pieces and save, you can also build your own bar set here.

What's the difference between this set and the 14-piece bar set?

This 4-piece barware set is a basic starter kit for making shaken cocktails in any home or professional bar, while the 14-piece cocktail set is more comprehensive and includes tools for both shaken and stirred cocktails.

Who is this barware kit for?

This set is made for everyone: beginner, intermediate, and advanced home bartenders as well as professional mixologists.

What occasion can I use this bar tool set for?

This barware gift set is meant for everyday use and is great for making drinks for special occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, dinner parties, and date nights.

Is the stainless steel dishwasher-safe?

It sure is! Our metal barware is made of dishwasher-safe stainless steel 304 that is dent and rust-resistant.

Great set!

This is a great bar set! We're just beginner at-home drink makers, but like having nice tools. And while everything out there is getting enshittified, these tools are sturdy and high-quality! Have been run through multiple dishwasher rounds already and still look brand new.

Hi Natasha, thanks for the great review! We’re so glad your kit is helping you enjoy making drinks at home—and that it’s holding up beautifully after all those dishwasher rounds. Cheers!

Quality, well made ss metal products. (Glad there were no glass or fragile pieces as the box was damaged by the delivery service.) Looking forward to many years of usage.

aspiring bartender? admirable hostess? possible drinking problem? THIS SET IS FOR US!

As a lifelong student of all things edible/drinkable, cocktailing seemed like a great new hobby, not without its pitfalls. Future meetings notwithstanding, this set is gorgeous, easy to use (except my new lil Boston and I’m getting there), and a real workhorse. Sure, it will be the talk of your next cul de sac get together, but using these beautiful tools to make one perfect Sidecar for yourself is like a holy act of self care. Do I still have a use for my training wheels shaker? Yes. Do I foresee giving it to someone who hasn’t yet caught the Perfect Home Bar Setup bug? I do, I do. Can’t wait for those bitters bottles to come back in stock, I want a slew of them on my bar AND my vanity, so I feel like Marie Antoinette. so glad I found A Bar Above, literally the only positive thing I can say in 2026 about Facebook.

This review absolutely made our day. We love that your Boston shaker relationship is still a work in progress and fully support the pursuit of one perfect Sidecar as an act of self care.

Thank you so much for letting A Bar Above be part of your new cocktail hobby (and future cul-de-sac fame). And honestly, using bitters bottles on both your bar AND your vanity for full Marie Antoinette energy? Iconic.

We’re so glad you found us even if Facebook gets only partial credit. Cheers to many more perfectly made cocktails! 🍸

Exactly as advertised

Great Customer Service

I love everything about this company. The order process is quick and easy. Owners respond to any questions immediately and show that they really care about bringing the best to all customers. My order shipped immediately right before Christmas and was received by Christmas Day. I did a lot of shopping around and this is a cut above any products i found. I feel confident that I got everything I wanted quality wise and company wise.

Top Quality Set

I ordered this set to use at home and I must say, the tools are top notch and built to last. The jigger and bar spoon are durable and heavy, just the way I like them. The mixing glass is a thick glass and looks super nice on any bar top or bar cart. 10/10 would recommend. I will be purchasing more of these when it comes time to order tools for the bar I manage. Cheers

Stellar

I shopped a long time for this shaker and I’m glad I did. It’s perfect. And the strainer is also perfect. Recommend!

Stainless Steel Cocktail Picks

Very happy with the sets we received.

We’re so happy to hear that! Thanks for your support and cheers to many great cocktails ahead with your new sets

Great shaker

Very high quality Boston shaker that is perfect for all my mixology needs!

Thank you for your kind words! We're so glad to hear that our stainless steel cocktail shaker set is meeting all your mixology needs. Cheers to many more delicious drinks!

Enough with the branding!

The products are great - stylish, durable, high-quality. But every single piece from spoons to shakers to bottles has “A Bar Above” stamped or etched on it. I’m want a home bar set, not a corporate swag display.

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we appreciate the feedback!

Stainless Steel Mixologist Bar Set (14-Piece)

Great Products and Support

Do not hesitate to purchase products from A Bar Above. I was pleasantly surprised by how solid and wonderfully made the Boston shaker set is. I found it easy to use, even for a novice amateur like me. The best thing about A Bar Above is Julia and her great customer support. I had a number of questions before and after my purchase, and Julia quickly answered them all. They will definitely stand behind their products. I’m looking forward to using more of their products, and continue to let people know about them.

Don you are so kind! I'm thrilled you love the shaker. Wishing you a lifetime of delicious drinks!

Unbelievable!

Exactly as advertised! Worked perfectly in my glasses for weekend Bloody Mary's. Thank you!

I'm so thrilled you love them! Wishing you lots more tasty Bloody Mary's in the future!
