Loved this speakeasy! Pretty cool that they had a password to get in, most speakeasies got rid of that. Went with 3 other people and we all got 2-3 drinks each, all something different. I personally got Not All Money Is Green and Pink Fur, Thick Chain. Both we so good! All of us loved our drinks. We also got the truffle fries to share, and they were delicious. Definitely will be coming back!
The secret concept was great! Spent sometime to find the entrance :P the cocktails were amazing and the ambience was one of the best. The only drawback is food menu but again who needs it if you come for a bar for few drinks and to spend some quality time with your date.
Absolutely amazing. This isn't just a bar like other places, the bartenders actually are carefully crafting your drinks right there for you and the drinks are amazing. The food is fresh and delicious, and service was perfect.Make sure to sign up and learn the password, or you will not be permitted entry. It was free.
Went last night to join friends who are from Phoenix and wanted to check it out. Waited for about 15 min and enjoyed the walk in finding the door. Place was happening. Friends enjoyed the drinks and we had a delicious Blondie for dessert. Loved the decor and ambiance but it's a little loud if you want to have a conversation.
So by now you probably know the back story on this place so I'll spare you those details and tell you what I think could be helpful and the good and bad during my visit so management can review what is happening in their venue.Aside from what all of the news articles tell us this is different than what I had read about. It has transitioned into a modern speakeasy with a more of a goth apothecary and curiosities type feel.The wait staff dresses in all black and some are gothed out.Upon waiting to enter one goth gal didn't acknowledge us it made me feel uncomfortable. Then she went on to openly chat about personal things with a door man who had returned from his car. He was friendly when spoken to. No password was ever requested. They didn't tell us about the venue, drinks, what is special about the place, they did not add any value to our experience at all. Sadly I find this kind of lackluster service common in Arizona so I won't ding this place too much for it.Once we got through the door the entrance was really unique with the hallway of apothecary bottles. Once you found your way in a hostess was waiting for you and took you to your seats. The atmosphere was extremy dark. Too dark for a selfie on a date in most areas.The music was awful honestly.... It was a Friday night so they had rap playing. I tried to appreciate the attempt at some of the smoother rap songs but it still contradicted the entire experience.Why would they do this? Have you not heard of Perov Stelar? Frank Sinatra, anything prohibition era with a twist? You could probably get a DJ to mix something for you here in Phoenix.The music played at a comfortable level and we were able to talk just fine.Our beautiful long wavy haired waitress quickly appeared. She graciously returned my excitement to be there and quickly started to bring our experience back to five stars.To see the menu we needed a cell phone to scan the QR code. Reception was sketchy and I was bummed the beautiful menus I had seen in photos were no longer available. They really add to to ambiance I hope they come back after the pandemic is completely over. I wish I could have seen photos of the cocktails on the online menu. It was hard to figure out what was what.They only had four unusual craft beers so my very traditional friend had to order a drink he doesn't normally order, sadly he never finished it.I had three lifechanging cocktails I found absolutely supurb, these were the best drinks I have ever had. My biggest disappointment was I couldn't drink more!I loved the smell of the smoked cocktails.The bar was beautiful as was the interior.The chandeliers were gorgeous.It's fun that my take home drink was retrieved from an apothecary cabinet. Those little details really go far.I will definitely go back any time I get the chance when I visit AZ.Thank you!!
Loved this bar. They had some great drinks and happy hour is 5pm-7pm. Try their website and sign up for their emailing list to be able to get their monthly password. They ask you for it at the door which really adds to the mystery and experience! You also have to go through a fun hallway and small puzzle to enter the bar so it’s super neat. The staff was very friendly and the drinks and food were stellar. Can’t wait to go back.
Upscale, hidden gem with beautiful ambience and fantastic drinks. Designed like a speakeasy from the 20s, complete with themed music, a hidden hallway and entrance, and decor.Menu is pricey but worth it. They have a large variety of appetizers and drinks.Come prepared to know the secret entrance and hidden password (but if you don’t, the bouncer or their website will help you out and lead you in the right direction!)
I had the not my cup of tea and it was delicious! The drinks we had were great; it was a bit brightly lit for the speakeasy vibe. I really appreciated that they took our names down and we didn't have to wait outside in line - that was a big bonus! I would definitely recommend checking it out, especially for some of their finer selections of alcohol. I wish they were open until 2 intead of just 12; they did have a lot of staff around keeping an eye on the crowd for rowdy guests (very appreciated). I wish the vibe was a bit more eclectic - more quirks (music, lighting, etc). Still a great place!
We had fun with a needed secret password to enter and another secret passageway to enter the bar. Wait staff was super friendly and would actually hold a short conversation with you. The speakeasy ambiance is spot on. Definitely come to visit.
Overall a really great experience. Why not 5 stars? They were unable to make one of their signature cocktails, just happened to be the one I wanted to order. The other reason, if this were strictly a drinks only place then the small round tables are adequate. As soon as you order food, there just is no room, very inconvenient.Now for the great news. All the drinks we ordered were really well done and presented. For not be a restaurant the food was good and the service was fantastic. They have a happy hour from 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm with a limited selection of $10 cocktails.
