Great speakeasy, I enjoyed the selection of cocktails from the roaring 20s era, and the new take selection of cocktails. The food was great, but we had more of the appetizers selections then to the actual entrees. The place is on the small side but also makes sense since it’s a speakeasy. Great service and great environment

First time here, super cool place, even had a hidden secret door when you walk down the stairs. Very cozy 1920’s era atmosphere. With all decor dating back to the classic times of the prohibition.

We had Jason as our sever. And he was fantastic, his attention to detail. His knowledge about the drink menus and how he really sold us on the fancy drinks they create. Each drink is hand crafted and displayed with a fun little twist when it’s brought to your table. I haven’t ever experienced something like that. It made for an amazing evening with many photos being taken of the drinks and presentation of everything. Very well thought out restaurant/bar. Kudos to the owners for making something original in Calgary, and top notch staff, with great customer service & live Jazz music!

Thank you Jason for making my friends birthday a smashing hit with friendly professional fun service!

We will certainly be back!

Cheers!

Classy! Date night on steroids! A perfect Speakeasy. Chesterfield sofas, dark, amazing items on the shelves, and a cocktail menu to die for. We had their bottle of Chardonnay for a great price of $49! and see the pic for the unique take-home bottle that's now on my shelf. The nachos are superb (around $24 to share between 2). You simply can't go wrong with this place, they don't gouge and they make the atmosphere superb. Classy reinvented right on 17th. See pics.

Had an amazing experience at this prohibition-themed bar! Even though I only had one drink, Sabina, our server, made the visit unforgettable. She was not only friendly but also incredibly knowledgeable about the drink menu, offering great suggestions and engaging in fun conversation. The atmosphere really transported me back in time, with the dim lighting and vintage decor setting the perfect mood. Highly recommend stopping by for both Sabina’s excellent service and the unique, nostalgic vibe!
