My Cocktail Bar Pro

Overall this app is fantastic! Minor drawbacks are references to drinks in ingredient descriptions that are not in the app and not a larger variety of ingredients or specific types of them. However, the app is very well put together and the ability to add ingredients and recipies easily is a huge selling point to the app. It would be nice to see updates that add recipies and such in the future so the constant need to add custom things to the app is minimized but as said before the app is absolutely great as is.

I use this app a lot. I am only marginally interested in the simple recipes the app ships with, so at least half of my ingredients and half of my recipes are custom entered by hand, usually from a recipe discovered on the web somewhere. That is OK, and the customization is what makes the software useful to me. My main gripe is the app is completely unaware of the cloud. I am not aware that is it backing up my data. I can definitely not sync my recipes with my computer or any other device. I assume that when my current tablet dies, I will lose all my data associated with this app. There is no web interface for bulk editing recipes on a real computer - how could it, without any cloud presence at all? Share recipes with someone else? Nope. Print? Nope. Download in CSV or any readable format? Not that I know about. For cooking, I use a similar but much more powerful app called Pepperplate. I wish I could use Pepperplate for cocktails too, mostly for the cloud and web integration features. But Pepperplate is clearly specialized for cooking; My Bar Pro is definitely easier to use for cocktails specifically.

It's got potential but is missing things. No ability to modify the units list to add things like "measure". It would be useful to have the ingredients nested: Cognac > Remmy Martin, this allows you to have multiple different cognacs for example in your ingredients which are then recognised when Cognac is needed.

Sad "Bar" IMO, the lists of ingredients, liquors, etc is so small it's ridicules. I bought a "Bar App" so I could get cocktail ideas from it, not create my own. Sigh.. no idea how they got a 4.7. Don't waste your money

Good variety of drinks, offers alternatives based on your barstock, useful info on ingredients, allows personalization, user friendly, clear interface, not too detailed or elaborate and nice images. Bit too North American for ingredients and mixes, though. Non alcoholic drinks and being able to filter based on 'official' cocktails are nice features.

After putting in my ingredients the first cocktail I try is delicious! It's exactly what I wanted. Just a simple list of cocktails I can make with the ingredients on hand.

I use this all the time. I would love to be able to send recipes to other phones, change core ingredient or drink details, and add a Coupe glass to the choices!

Absolutely love the app! Fantastic beginner's tool and super handy reference guide for the more advanced. Very keen to see and play with some more cocktails if there's some inbound on the next update!

I punch in what I have and it will tell me what I can make. Easy as.

It prefills the My Bar Shelf with heaps of ingredients. How do I clear them all in 1 go?

This app rocks!!!

Good and quick for basic drinks. Still works after you've had a few.

You can create your own ingredients and then create your own cocktail

Just the best

Great app layout and functionality. Needs more liquor options. I bought this app over a year ago and there has never been an update.

Great basic drink app. It doesn't allow you to add specific kinds of liquar. With a few added improvements it would be awsome. I feel it's the best so far.

The app is good for a very basic bar. You can check that you have vodka but if you have 5 kinds of vodka you have to create custom entries (vodka: Ketel One) but it only treats the item as generic alcohol It would be great if you could catagorize customization beyond strong or soft alcohol (like rum, liqueur, gin, etc). Also you can't easily show the amount in the bottle. Too bad. The overwhelming majority of my entries are custom so it feels like a miss but with a few more features it could be great.

One of the best cocktail apps out there. Has classic and modern recipes which aren't pure nonsense like I've seen on other apps. Please keep updating and improving this app!!!

Would be brilliant if the app creates a proper cocktail menu of your favourite drinks so that you could print it off and present it to your guests.

I tried another apps, but this is so simple, helpful and it comes handy for any occasion. I hope they can add more ingredients and drinks in the future. Awesome job.

Favorite drink app

A very well designed app which really helps you succeed! It was really great to have the basket program to help keep track of what you need to buy for the drinks you want to serve. The export function works fine too, and let me keep both tablet and smartphone up to date. Saves a lot of worry! You should release a version for kitchen recipes!

The limited options for amounts are the biggest issue. No option for tablespoon?? No options for cup, 12 cup, 14 cup or 13 cup so you can't make a recipe for pitchers of drinks. How about the same flexibility to enter custom amounts?

You made me buy this because the free version has ads. Still the best cocktail app out there. Infinite recipes, extremely nice UI and some really good features. I love that you can select the ingredients you have and it tells you what you can make out of that.

Probably the best-implemented Android app I've ever seen.

Love the simplicity and customization of ingredients and recipes.

Your app does pretty much just what I wanted. Some high-end bars are now handing over tablets with customized photo drink menu apps when customers ask for the bar menu - I wanted something similar for our home bar guests, to list and describe the "Specialty Drinks" we've been working hard at perfecting. By creating custom recipes with your app, I can use the "Favorites" tab to do just that! I really like the simplicity and ease-of-use of My Bar Pro, both for normal use and creating the menus. The ability to add my own photos is also a boon! I especially like the intuitive cross-referencing (clicking an ingredient anywhere to see other drinks with that ingredient, and the links from there back to the drink, etc.). User-created recipes work/filter just like pre-written ones. Nicely done! And thanks for the export/import to protect the customization work! My biggest disappointment - when "cloning" a drink recipe for modification, the numbered "mixing procedure" steps are not copied over also. You can't even select-copy-paste this section for editing. Also, there is no way to "highlight" (in bold blue) the ingredients in the procedure steps, like the pre-written ones.

This is how a cocktail app should be done. I tell it what I have, it says what I can make. I say what I want, it says what I need. I tell it I prefer metric, everything is in milliliters. It has a bunch of substitutions built-in. Stellar! The one thing I didn't see is the ability to program my own substitutions. This would be nice both for defining new ingredients (say I want to make a "high-pulp orange juice" that can be used for OJ) and in custom cocktails (list triple sec but allow Cointreau).

A must have for me. Now I'm all Tom Cruise in the kitchen

I'd give it a 5 if it would recognize common substitutions and if it had more recipes.

Couldn't pass this one up. Love it!

But almost a year since last update!

Only issue is I can't seem to figure out how to list substitutes in custom cocktails. Other than that it is by far the best, tried free for about 10 min and had to support the dev.

Extraordinary selection of ingredients and cocktails, but the ability to add your own ingredients and cocktails makes this app a must-have for any serious cocktail enthusiast.

This is the greatest app ever...so far. I'm always looking at it and using it. Feed back is responded to the same day. Used the free one for about a week. This is the first app that I have ever paid for. Highly recommended. I take it to the store to check the ingredients that I need.

After using the free version for awhile, decided to upgrade to pro. I wish the app would idle a little longer so I could quickly open it. Also I can't seem to figure out how to add half ounces in custom. Hello devs? :D

I absolutely love it. Well thought out, great interface. If you enjoy mixing cocktails this is a must have!

Tried most of the cocktail apps and always come back to this. Custom cocktails facility is excellent

... And had to buy it. Just brilliant. No access to personal info, does exactly what you want it to, well thought through. This is how I would have made it! :-)

Used free version a bit and had to buy. I wonder why other apps don't let you manage a virtual bar this easily. Who cares?! This one manages perfect! Great app.
