“AMAZING drinks!! On Thursdays they will do $5 surprise me drinks… you name the liquor and the will surprise you with a delish cocktail. We had 4 people and everyone got something different….. twice….. and EVERYTHING was amazing. Also, the place is just a vibe!! I’m so happy to have visited here on my trip! ♥️🥂”
“Extensive menu with perfectly curated cocktails. I enjoyed the Northwoods from the Herbal section. For our second shared cocktail we let the bartender choose and the drink was fabulous. Service and atmosphere awesome. Lovely place. See you again soon.”
“Probably my favorite speakeasy we’ve ever tried. They’ve done a great job creating a “secret” feel. From the clandestine entrance to the kind of facade lobby and needing to have the secret password instead of saying you have a reservation:-) It feels like you’re entering the most magical place. And you are!! Plus the drinks were INCREDIBLE. Highly recommend the bartenders choice. It was probably the best drink I’ve ever had. We loved it here and can’t wait to go back.”
“This is one of my absolute favorite places! Not only are the drinks fabulous but the staff are top-notch - Moe especially! The best time to go is on a Thursday when music is playing - such a treat! Oh speaking of treats, highly recommend their charcuterie board! A little $$ but SO worth it! Thanks for all the fun times and great memories!”
“Great experience. Excellent cocktails. Not over-rated. Make reservations.”
