Super simple

Love it - super simple to use and comprehensive. Will use for this holiday season whether Im hosting or guesting!

Great bartending guide

Great app -- nice design, and there are tons of recipes for unusual drinks along with all the classics. I like that I can add notes and photos to my favorite recipes, and the ability to switch back and forth between ounces and grams is also really useful.

an incredible resource

Im so glad I downloaded this app instead of some of the other bartending guides - this one is fantastic! Its so well organized and super-simple to use. I love the Bar Basics section because it gives a great rundown of equipment needed and even guidance on how many drinks to plan for every occasion or bottles of wine to plan for when having a dinner party - who doesnt need that??? There are over 1,000 recipes and ideas for cocktails, from the classic to the exotic, and even toasty holiday toddies like eggnogs and punches, which are perfect for this time of year. The shopping list feature is perfect for planning on-the-go, and you can share recipe ideas with friends via e-mail or on Facebook. The Favorites feature lets you add your own notes and photos to recipes - genius! Its like a built-in scrapbooking function right in your app!

Mr. Boston is a respected name in cocktail guides, but this app falls short in usability and functionality. I definitely expected more. The interface, though attractive, is a bit awkward to use. Some buttons are at the bottom, some at the top, making it uncomfortable and unintuitive. You are unable to browse all drinks--you must browse by type of liquor or search by name. When browsing, there is also no letter index, so you must scroll through all the drinks to go down the list (ie. no jumping to letter M). Very few drinks have photos. Some of the other bar-tending info offered in this app is useful, and depending on what youre looking for, this could add some value. But for me, I wanted a comprehensive and readily accessible cocktail resource with photos. This app didnt quite hit the spot.

Wow! What a let down!! First recipe I look up was wrong!!

Im a bartender with 12 years expirience and thought this would be a great app because I wouldnt have to carry my recipe book. I was dissapointed that the first recipe that I look up to refresh my memory was completly off!!! Look up Rum Runner!!! Instead of rum, banana liquor, ect. it says it is with gin!!! This cant be the real Mr. Boston bartenders guide!!!

Little red book

I own the book, I love the app! Visually appealing super easy to use.…simple to navigate while testing the recipes! Mr. Boston youve done it again.

Bug!

After a few moments of use, the screen goes completely white on my iPhone 4S. The only way to get the app to work is to power the phone off, power it back on, and restart the app. This has happened twice, just a few moments after I installed the app. If it hadnt been for that, the app looked pretty good. I hope they get this resolved soon!
