Amazing Atmosphere with some of the best cocktails you will ever have. Very impressed with the experience, knowledge and the phenomonal mixology of the bartenders. Definitely a must if you're in the area.

What an amazing place. I had heard about it in the past and finally got a chance to check it out when we were hired to DJ a Wedding there. What a great atmosphere. Decor is amazing. Staff was friendly and helpful. Will be back for sure.

Such a cool place and a unique experience!!! Looove it here! The karaoke on Sunday is TOP TIER. Don't let the relatively difficult to locate entrance scare you! (It is located at the back of the building if you can't find it!) It used to be a bootlegging bar back in the day, so that is actually part of its charm, and it is STUNNING inside.

This speakeasy has wonderful vibes, cozy corner booths and a main floor with lots of walking/dancing room (not sure when the band plays but the DJ was great!). Drinks are always expensive everywhere so can’t complain there. Staff was sweet, especially for my large group of people! Drinks menu and prices along with food reviews included in the other pics! Highly recommend the Dancing Queen cocktail. The cheese/sliced meat/olive/jam/baguette appetizer and the hummus dish was a great shareable - they give more hummus than bread tbh.

I love this speakeasy-esque spot. One of my favourites for sure. The cocktails are super unique and delicious.

Was visiting from Toronto and came here on a whim. Pretty wonderful experience. Absolutely incredible drinks.... They easily put themselves on the map just based off their cocktail menu alone, ha. Their Burlesque host is incredibly funny and entertaining. I’d absolutely come back here again given the opportunity.
