I actually worked next door as a fellow bartender. This guy was SUPER nice, an absolute professional, and chatted with my coworkers and I as he got us drunk before our shifts :p He did enjoy making the drinks enough to be there for decades with his brother I believe. He also gave my friends and I life and barkeep advice which has been invaluable.
_" this is not Irish coffe..."_ Well, you obviously don't know much about _Irish coffe..._ This is actually the place through which it first arrived in the USA: www.foodandwine.com/drinks/secrets-behind-perfect-irish-coffee The BV's Irish coffees are legendary for their delicious taste. Both their whiskey, cream, sugar and even goblets have been very carefully selected (see link). If ever I have the pleasure of visiting the USA, this place will be at the top of my bucket list.
I love how he has such a quick eye for which glasses aren't quite full enough, and he can quickly scoop amounts from one glass to another without causing much mess. He moves the glasses without any fear of them falling or causing more spillage. It's pretty cool and you can tell he's worked there for æons.
Agreed. That final pour across is a masterstroke of bartending. It's what people remember and what keeps them coming back. All the comments here about him "wasting" coffee don't get it. The show, the presentation, is just as important as the product. It's what separates legendary joints from your garden variety bar.
Have enjoyed many many of these at this bar. Went there for breakfast one St. Patrick's Day (they have great food) and left around 8 that night. One of the greatest celebrations ever.
Sunday early they serve a wonderful breakfast. The place is very quiet. If you over indulged Saturday night. Have their light and lovely hangover cure Gin Fizz. I managed a restaurant named the"Tulip Garden in the middle of the block 728 Beach st. So I had a few Irish coffees along the way after closing my place.
Impressive skills of this bartender making multiple hot beverages at the same time. Looks like he made two Bailey’s (or some Irish cream liqueur equivalent) & coffee drinks topped with whipped cream on the left.
One part of the ritual that's missing is when he fills the glasses with hot water first, in one long sweep like he does with the coffee. After a minute or two, he dumps the water out, two glasses at a time. He then proceeds with the coffee.
@Roy Dunn It's an "Irish Cream Coffee." I used to drink it a lot. I'd order it in casinos when I played cards as a nice alternative after drinking beer all night. Cup of coffee with just a shotglass or two of Bailey's, topped with a nice layer of heavy cream. Perfection!
I could sit in the Buena Vista all day, in the heart of San Francisco, with trolleys passing by just outside, and watch Paul makes 25 rounds of Irish coffee while I sip mine.
Been there since the 1930's. And Fisherman's wharf is just down the block for some of the freshest seafood in the city. Don't forget to try the famous San Francisco style sourdough french bread!!!!!! 👍
Disgusting, ... this is maybe a Commercial Version but it´s clearly - NOT HOW TO DO IT. First you heat the Glass with 1-2 tsp BROWN Sugar inside, when the sugar begins to caramelize you pour about 3-5cl Irish whiskey over it, then give it a short stir and fill the Glass with Coffee. After that add some Whipped Cream on top and NEVER and i repeat NEVER touch a custumers Glass at the Rim or hold it like he does in this Video !!! ...and for some Knowledge it was NOT invented by the Buena Cafe, they copied the Original Recipe from an Airport Restaurant in Ireland.
Apart from putting the ingredients in the glass in the right order, everything else was atrocious. Really showed the bartender's mileage, only the wrong aspects of it. Maybe it was all a practical joke? The glass handling in the end also made me throw up in my mouth a little. I get that it's their famous style and recipe, but for the life of me I just can't see it tasting any better compared to better and more refined preparation tecniques.
I Will LOVE to ser u making a thousand irish coffees per night on ur own at the same time u make everything else lol theres always a smart ass bartender ready to speak
@@vero9348 No matter how you want to slice it, the matter stands that the technique at display here is not a) the original Irish Coffee recipe, b) the best tasting because of preparation, c) the most customer-respecting or even d) the most time-effective way of preparing the cocktail in question.

@@robulmer8387 We are not talking about rocket science here. Irish Coffee (and for that regard, an Old Fashioned as well) are simple cocktails. Going into detail, the things that irritate me in this particular bar's preparation are 1) sugar cubes instead of liquid brown sugar (takes longer to dissolve and, as seen on the video, you need to stir like a madman if you want it done within the hour), 2) pouring coffee into multiple glasses like you couldn't give a rat's ass about quality (and not cleaning the exterior of the glasses) and 3) lifting the glasses with your fingers practically at the rim (I bet it would be a popular move with customers especially now with COVID-19 sweeping the globe). Those are not special preparations, just acts of common decency many people (at least in my experience) seem to value. If your comment represents your view on making cocktails, then you've been frequenting the wrong places.

@@ogj5curious about the advice too!

JAAJAJAJAJAJ
That was awesome. What a master, anyone else and we’d all be covered in coffee right now
Floor is def covered in coffee
...and sticking in cream and sugar :)
He probably served me in the early 80's
I'm pretty sure that man will eventually make and serve every human being he's ever met an Irish coffee.
I rented the time share above the buena vista for 2wks in the mid 2000s n spent everydy there, that dudes awesome
Yeah, served you the D
Bartender: here is your drink
Me: Well...thanks for making the glass dripping Hot coffee
Fantastic
Taffer would cringe seeing him grab the glasses at the top.
quality of the result?
you dont walk out of the Buena Vista. You crawl.
So good. And you order more than one!
I have been there the best Irish coffee ever
Think he could’ve made another glass or two with as much coffee as he’d spilled
Inaccurate pours with the whiskey. Touching the rims of the glasses. I'll pass on that coffee.
The chippest cream. The chippest whisky. The chippest coffee.
Been there....best Irish coffee ☕ ever !
😂 ni un amor por preparar café.
Indian tea stall..😅
Cioè... Ma stai scherzando?!
wrong
Espresso coffee with sambuca is much better than this,Italians do it better.
Not really Irish coffee is it....
Η κρέμα έχει κόψει
Would not touch it... like making the feed to an animals in the farm...
What the f.... #IBAdisapproved
A lo cochino!
Este barista, no entiende, de café.
really dirty way to work...go clean your shirt man, and this is not Irish coffe...

As a bartender (Key West, Miami, Gainesville) love the pour. Across, then fast back. Folks love t'see that extra bit.

Yotoさんから来たけど、予想を裏切られたわ(笑)
That bartender looks dead inside…probably makes the best damn drinks on planet earth

Woot I wish I was there!
Damn! When you tell people you were partying at the Buena Vista all day, you literally mean *all day*.
Sounds great...a proper all day bender!☺️👍
Damn how do you spend all day at a bar

Those there aren't _"coffee drinks."_ Those there are Irish coffees.
Muddy283 he’s talking about the ones with cream liqueur. Those are definitely coffee drinks. All the others are Irish coffees.
@@supadopemex9245 baileys coffee lad
I love this place. The Rubens are also to die for. Never left hungry or sober. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I love Rubens, I love Irish coffee, and I love San Francisco, so it seems I must go here.
One part of the ritual that's missing is when he fills the glasses with hot water first, in one long sweep like he does with the coffee. After a minute or two, he dumps the water out, two glasses at a time. He then proceeds with the coffee.
Absolutely no fucks given.
He has more coffee on his clothes and on the floor then in the glasses .... messy bus boy 😊 I can see Jerry Lewis doing this and getting fired .
So, the entire house was drinking Irish coffee it seems.
Must be THE house drink.
They probably were. They are so good, most of the people are drinking it when you walk in.
1 table maybe that everyone wanted an Irish coffee 2 no sugar.
@@wildernessman760 Looks like those two had Baileys added instead of cream and sugar. It's a nice alternative to traditional Irish coffee.

First of all : THAT"S NOT COFFE...THAT'S JUST BLACK WATER. Second : WTF IS THIS lunatic serving....tipical american :(((
Mom: I need you make 12 Irish coffee for my guests at 4 pm
*Me at 3::59
Very efficient, mass production, mass consumption. LOL
Probably made mine back in the 80's as well. Great Irish Coffee.
Comentário de quem nunca bebeu kkkkkk
this guy is actually super cool and he’s fun to talk to on not so busy day.
What a fucking mess. Why would I want my glass to be all sticky and with his filthy hands all over the rims?
Just using Irish Whiskey doesn't make it an Irish coffee, this should be Powers pot still
I could sit in the Buena Vista all day, in the heart of San Francisco, with trolleys passing by just outside, and watch Paul makes 25 rounds of Irish coffee while I sip mine.
He a legit sifu or sensei at this art
and he probably wishes you'd order something else.
@@JanoyCresva drink and hangout with friends.
@@JanoyCresva Nah, from what I've seen, Paul is very proud of their house specialty and of being a living part of San Francisco history.
2:56 grabs the glasses by the rim 🤦♂
Welcome to the real industries my friends
4 years ago I was here. Best Irish Coffee I’ve ever had.
Was he still there?
I can say I've been there once & maybe one day I'll make my way back and my Buena Vista was AWESOME!!!
This is the best Irish Coffee video on youtube😜🤪
its great but its $12 for a small glass. Just know that going in.
So is it white sugar cubes or a table spoon of brown sugar?
Been going there since 1973!
Grab the glasses on top in Germany and it was your last day 🙈😁
Un soggetto così in qualsiasi altra parte del mondo farebbe la fame!
How not to make an Irish coffee
Bro TOUCHED THE RIMS of the glasses. That’s one of the most important unwritten rules of bartending.
Give every man his Dew.
As the original slogan was.
this is on my bucket list
I went to a pub and got them to pour my Irish coffee over ice with whiskey and Baileys as the creamer...perfection.
Seems like this is a go to place in San Francisco
Been there since the 1930's. And Fisherman's wharf is just down the block for some of the freshest seafood in the city. Don't forget to try the famous San Francisco style sourdough french bread!!!!!! 👍
If an Indian bartender did this the Americans would go bat shit crazy. 🤣
Why? Indian bartenders know their trade too.
No higiene ni calidad ni servicio 👎
What a mess to be honest
The 2 irish glass was upgraded instead of 2 cubes of sugar, it's the baileys 😁🥰 wow! Kinda strong irish whisky and baileys
Disgusting, ... this is maybe a Commercial Version but it´s clearly - NOT HOW TO DO IT.

I ordered a Margarita in the Buena Vista once. It was horrible. I deserved it. That's like ordering an Irish coffee in Pedro's.
Mala hgiene
Sorry not for me, looks messy more production than flair as far as I am concerned, a bartender in Ireland would not get away with that.
A Good Example.. waste coffee..I think enough coffee is spilled
El peor café irlandés que te puedas tomar 😮😮😮😮😮😮.. peor hecho imposible
Not impressed. Speed doesn't guarantee flavor. That's a lame attempt at Irish coffee.
Everything was cool until he grab the glasses from the rim with his maybe slightly dirty hands. Someone is about to put there lips on that.
Why did no one fucking complain about him using bare hands to handle your sugar vs the guy who held the cup by the rim
How many times a week do you wash your work clothes?
Bartender: Yes.
Lester Crest lol
damn those where definitely way over 2 oz pours of that there hwhiskey
Bad preparation. Option for the small show instead of the quality.
Tullymore dew? That's cheap sh*t , not very good
Anyone else wondering how the glasses never seem to fill up until he poured the cream at the end🧐
High end..
Would order five of them just to see him making them.
Hard to beat; can't wait to have another! Amazing drink in an amazing atmosphere
Shit work, sorry!
Very Very light on the whiskey. What a rip off.
This bartender would not be working for me. What a mess.
I am left with only one word Hallelujah .. what a performance
Que desperdiciado yo así no contrataba gente. Lo hechaba del lugar. Que horrible trabaja.
What a disgusting way you through that together glad your not a CHEF
wasted half the coffee, half the whiskey
It's a small price to pay for the "show" he gives to the customers. That's a big reason their Irish coffee is famous, and why we watch their videos.
What a threatening display of power
He is so dirty, he's making the coffe like a crazy
No offense but this doesn't look that impressive.
It was like watching a scene from a movie🎬
Dude is splashing hot coffee all over the bar
How many white hairs part of its its racipe 😅
To be fair, Its a great way to serve in bulk.
Олег Тиньков когда продал банк решил стать барменом😂
Roba da matti 🙄🙄🙄🙄
I guess wasting liquid ain't a concern 😑
it's fast serve but not good quality...
Nice show. Bet those glasses are sticky.
love it there....
