8 left in the Battle of the Bartenders: Decide what happens next!

May 12, 2026

Cape Gazette is raising the bar this summer with Battle of the Bartenders, powered by Standard Distributing Company - a bracket-style showdown to crown the Cape Region’s favorite local bartender.

The field is smaller. The pressure is bigger.

Round 2 voting is open through 5/18 at 11:59pm. Vote once per day, follow the bracket, and keep your favorite in the fight.

The winning bartender lands the cover of the June 25 issue of The Cape Current, plus a feature story celebrating their run.

Expect friendly rivalries, local bragging rights, and plenty of buzz along the way.
