Living in a city like Downtown LA comes with a lot of intensity and contradictions. The highs are high and the lows are low. In the same city... no! In the same square mile there are things that bring you the ultimate levels of joy and gratification while also finding things that bring you sadness, or in some cases anger. Think about the traffic; oh that maddening traffic! However, life is better when spent focusing on the positive rather than the negative and one positive about Los Angeles is that there is no shortage of cool little nocks and crannies to fall into on any given night. One of these aforementioned nocks and/or crannies is Bar Jackalope, situated right in the heart of Downtown LA on 7th & Grand Ave. It offers one of my favorite features in life... a secret. It's tucked away behind an unassuming passage, posing as a hallway for the historic Seven Grand. When you walk in, you are greeted with Speakeasy decor and a wide variety of whiskey often difficult to find at other bars, even the ones with a large spirits selection. The cherry on top is that you can have a cigar with your whiskey, the way God intended, instead of just drinking like a savage. There are fewer joys in life than a good quality whiskey and a nice fat cigar that could give you a buzz even if you weren't drinking. But there is a caveat. Bar Jackalope is only open during prime time going-out days, think Thurs-Sun, so it is always busy and can be a hassle to deal with, even if you live in Downtown. In addition, although the place is filled with beautiful and fun people it is often too loud to have fun with someone you don't already know, unless body language is your modus operandi. What can I say, as I sit her indulging in the bliss of puffing some delicious smoke followed by drinking some delicious whiskey? In life sometimes you just have to take the good with the bad and remember that in the end we're all still pretty lucky. Stay focusing on the positive my friends.... read more

Bar Jackalope is a "hidden" speakeasy located in Seven Grand...a bar within a bar. If you have trouble finding the entrance, just ask anyone that works at Seven Grand and they'll point you in the right direction. Bar Jackalope offers a wide selection of whiskies for every price range, including an excellent selection of rare and premium whiskies if that's your thing, Also, although the Japanese whiskies seems to be the highlight here, they also do have non-Japanese whiskies as well. If you're sure what to get, just ask your server for recommendations. They have seating both inside and outside. You can make a reservation for no wait. Service is friendly and it's a cool little spot to grab a drink before or after dinner. read more

What's the password... I couldn't say... he he... Welcome to the Bar Jackalope Speakeasy... The secret bar within a bar... Of a historic building within the 2nd floor. Located in a secret passage known as the hallway of Seven Grand where you can enjoy great music on their record player (when there is not an astounding live band), a beautiful speciality exclusive cocktail menu, private booths and tables, a separate patio, amazing mix master/whiskey experts/scotcholgist who put together flights, experiences and some of the best service you'll ever experience. Mood lit for an intimate experience with friends, colleagues, or even that special someone you might call your baby. I super planned a full series of events for my special someone, including this one of a kind must try at Bar Jackalope. Once we booked ahead online, I reached out to confirm and ended up updating our reservation. We arrived at 7PM on the dot. Pressed. Awaited. And I wondered into this whiskey den lounge that's still on my mind. We had the best seat in the speak... In my honest opinion. Enjoyed some out of this world high balls - the Laddie being the most refreshing. Cuddled up, and taking a beat here was the best. You can enjoy snacks, whisk(e)y, other beverages and cigars (if you partake) - while their signature menu has less than ten items to choose the QR code menu has a cave of wonders in options including flight options. I thought about getting us a bottle to hold in a locker for next time, but I know they'll be a lot of next times as we truly beyond loved Bar Jackalope and all the kind gents running the show here. Q Tips: You can also order drinks at the main bar and bring them inside and have your space for as long as needed within a max 2hr time. They can accommodate up to parties of six but do ask for a minimum if you wish to book a party larger than six and they will need some notice as it's a limited space that can only hold less than 40 people comfortably (including the Bar Jackalope crew)... This is only 14 to 18 people, roughly in their main area and 16 max in the patio/cigar area. Perfect date night, social hang, guest stop, or in our case, birthday celebration date. We'll be back #Quintego read more

This was one of those little hidden gems that you find and it was good one. Talking to some of the other patrons they mentioned that it used to be a members only lounge. It's a cool small area with its own bar and a couple of padded high top chair. Very old school with an upscale twist. The whole concept was great with the dim lights. Drinks were good and it's park of the other bar but in its own private room in the back. Hence a members lounge back in the days. It's a cool spot and worth checking out. read more

An amazing whiskey bar located inside of Seven Grand. It is not hard to find as it has a sign next to the door. You press the button and someone from inside will open the door. It is best to make a reservation as there's limited space inside and cannot accommodate big parties without prior requests. It is best to visit in a party of 2. They do have indoor and patio seating similar to how it is set up in Seven Grand. They have a wide variety of Japanese Whiskeys and ask for recommendation if you are up for trying out something new. The staff are amazing and you will be well served: they make great drinks, give good recommendations and super friendly. An amazingly chill place to be after a long day at work. You can get a bottle and have them store it for you for your next visits. It was also fun to read all the creative name tags on the bottles. read more

Now this is an older comment. I know things have changed since Oct of 2024 but I am so late to post this. I loved the tasting experience where Peter brought out the pours and bottles and discussed what everything involved. Peter is the main reason I came back much more than originally planned. Peter is literally my favorite thing about Bar Jackalope. It was the most intimate and epic tasting I have ever had. I had already come in with pours and he was very efficient. Then after we finished the first round I asked him to bring me pours based on our first ones and he was spot on. He by far is the best thing at Bar Jackalope!!! If Bar Jackalope was still setup this way it is a 5 star experience every time!!! read more

We are so sad! Bar Jackalope is no longer an exclusive, private whiskey club, but an Open Extension of 7 Grand. We have been coming here for 10 years as bottle owners and are devastated that this will be our last visit. We wish you would have contacted your current bottle owners to let them know about this dramatic change. What an unpleasant surprise! Close those doors and make them ring that doorbell again and we will happily come back. The vibe you created as an exclusive, private club was incredible and now it's keggers with kids. What a colossal disappointment! Giving one star for the kind bartender who comped our second drink after finishing off our bottle. He could smell our discontent. read more

Bar Jackalope is one of my go-to spots when I want to show friends the best of downtown LA's hidden gems. Tucked away in the back of Seven Grand, its speakeasy vibe makes it feel like you're stepping into another world--quiet, intimate, and full of character. The whiskey menu is fantastic, offering an impressive selection that any whiskey lover would appreciate, and their unique cocktails are crafted with creativity and precision. It's the kind of place that makes any night out feel special, and I always look forward to bringing friends here to experience a true downtown LA. read more

New favorite hideaway bar. Great quality whiskey. Cozy seating indoors and on the outdoors patio. Shared space with Seven Grand where you can explore their bigger bar selection and play billiards. Can't go wrong with this lovely place. Great service for a busy night. This place also does whiskey tastings! The bartender recommended coming in on a less busier day (not that he denied us, we just didn't want it that night). No reservations needed if less than 6 people in a party. PARKING; Public and covered parking lots available on the cross streets read more

A very subtle place, a whiskey bar that you wouldn't expect to be in the heart of downtown Los Angeles. It was quite the escape, as the calming music in a snug space gave the energy for tasting different kinds of whiskey. The service was simply incredible, as each drink was presented with the history that made the drink. The prices were unmatched, as you can find anything you'd like to have, varying the age, quality, and taste preference, all at a price that matches the drink. There isn't a drink I wouldn't recommend and this speakeasy serves as a place where I would take a friend or two enjoy a few drinks and discourse. read more

Not sure how to review this - the wonderful private Jackalope whiskey bar is no more. What remains is an extended space to the regular bar. Well, I'm sure they wouldn't have done this unless it was a matter of survival. But definitely the end of an era. read more

A very cool Japanese style whiskey bar / speakeasy located in the back of Seven Grand bar. Very relaxed atmosphere its a little calm from the chaos that Seven Grand bar can be sometimes. It's a tiny spot that caps parties to about 4 to 6 max i believe. If you're coming in on a weekend you may want to get a reservation it. Inside you can order either flight pours (2/3 of an ounce) or full 2 oz pours. Check their menu, their collection changes. They have lots of unique whiskey options from Bourbon, Scotch and Japanese and there may be other exotic options as well just ask. Some of hte pours are quite dear, but those are in genereally incredibly hard to find whiskeys. BUt fear not you can have a very good night and taste very good whiskeys without blowing your budget if you try the fllight pours. They also have an amazing Suntory highball machine that serves out some extremely carbonated soda water for your highball (highly recommended!). Every host I've had there has been great. I've probably seen Peter the most and he's amazing! Awesome place to take out of town guests for something unique. read more

What can I say! This will forever be my favorite place, as I got engaged here on 11/23/2022 at 11:48p. After a nice pre-birthday dinner in Burbank (my bday was the next day- on Thanksgiving), my boyfriend and I didn't want to end the night so early, so I yelped "lounges" and decided to go with Seven Grand/Bar Jackalope (which I actually had bookmarked for some time because I love a good ol' Old Fashion"). When we arrived to Seven Grand and told the door attendant that it was our first time, he recommended that we check out Bar Jackalope. Although you need reservations, since it was the night before Thanksgiving he said we should be fine. So we headed upstairs to the "bar" . It was a cool vibe with a band playing, but my honey and I wanted a more intimate ambiance so we knocked on the door to enter Bar Jackalope, and inside we went. I forgot the young lady's name who thoroughly talked about the different whiskeys and the various tastings they offered, but she was very attentive. My honey and I decided to just sip on regular Old Fashions as opposed to doing the whiskey tasting. I love the vibe of speakeasies. Dim, romantic, and intimate. I will definitely be back to do the whiskey tasting. read more

My friend took us to a surprise! A hidden gem. The speakeasy area is extremely hard to get into and took us planning in advance. You're welcomed by chill and relaxed ambiance and professional staff. We got the tasting menu and wow..I was blown away by the quality of the whiskey they presented to us. I'd like to note the Yamazaki..extremely rare and hard to find. They are extremely knowledgeable as a noob myself don't know much about whiskey! It was a great experience and I want to go back again so badly..highly recommend! read more

If you love Whisky or Whiskey then this is your spot to visit. Best bet is to get yourself flight sizes of the numerous bottles they have. Our bartender knew the selection well and everything felt so fancy. I love how hidden this spot is. You surely could miss it when visiting the bar it is located in. One of the reasons why I love visiting speakeasy bars. read more

This place is easy to miss, as it's located inside of Seven Grand. The bottom level (bar) used to be great prelude before you get upstairs to Bar Jackalope, but they recently closed the bottom portion down. To get to Bar Jackalope, head upstairs, pass the pool tables and old school bar scene, and press the doorbell on your right (once you see the liquor cabinets). Super quaint and sexy speakeasy, it's the perfect spot for conversation, great whiskey, and cigar. It's not that cold outside neither, as they have heaters. read more

This is one of those local gems probably only locals know about! It's located inside of the Seven Grand Bar with the entrance door near the bathroom in the back. This place is pretty much RSVP only and you likely have to book a week or more advance especially if you have a larger party. There's total probably less then 16 total seats with only 4 main tables indoors and some outdoors for cigar smokers. The decor is super old school speakeasy with dark wooden paneling everywhere in a dim candle lit room. Yeah they only open super late at night from like 7pm-2am daily. The checkin process is pretty neat. You press the call button on the door and someone will open it for you. Yes they will confirm your RSVP before letting you in. They do take walkin's if space permit but super rare except maybe slow weekdays. If you're NOT a whiskey/Scotch drinker this isn't the place for you! The only cocktail they have here is a whiskey highball. If you want anything non whiskey based you're better off just going to the Seven Grand Bar outside. The menu literally has whiskey/scotch from the entire world with many being rare/reserves. The price range from about $5-100+ a pour. Each pour is about 1/2-1oz tasting. If you have no idea about your preferred taste profile you can ask your waiter for suggestions. Think of this like a wine tasting with a whiskey sommelier at your service. They will ask for your desired price point also to keep you on budget. Typically a tasting flight is 5 pours but you can try as many as you like, and you can afford. They do have a very small snack menu on the very last page with a few small bites ranging from cured Spanish meats, nuts, and chocolates. They do also offer locker service here if you want to buy a bottle and store it there for future visits. The staff is super friendly and recommendations are usually always on point! It's definitely a learning and great experience as you taste through all the different types of whiskey and casting methods. We will definitely be back again for more lessons and tastings! read more

We had free babysitting a few weeks ago and decided to keep drinking after an 8:00 dinner downtown--probably not the best decision on a Wednesday night. We walked to Seven Grand, a place we hadn't been in years, and were impressed to find it as busy as ever. These days, though, we prefer a calmer environment, where we can sit down while we nurse our drinks. We were happy to stumble onto Bar Jackalope, a hidden bar deep inside Seven Grand. There was a discreet entrance in a narrow corridor lined with display cabinets full of whiskey bottles, apparently all belonging to customers. The door was closed, with a switch next to it to request entry. It reminded me of Walker Inn and The Varnish. We turned on the switch and got in pretty fast. Bar Jackalope is small, and I gather that it can be a hassle on weekends, but you can walk in on a Wednesday night. The vibe was perfect, maybe especially for us elder millennials whose prime bar years coincided with the speakeasy boom. The space was comfortable and moody with lots of dark wood and glowing low light. We got a nice corner table at one end of a tufted leather banquette. Bar Jackalope was definitely a clever idea, a pleasant hideaway for customers and an easy moneymaker for Seven Grand. It's a pure whiskey bar with no cocktails, so it doesn't require a team of bartenders who are tied up all night measuring out spoons of Benedictine. Service is therefore more relaxed and more personalized. When we went, there was just a guy who really knew his whiskey. He gave us the menu--a thick, intricately indexed bottle list encompassing a very wide price range--and talked to us about our preferences. We wanted a bit of variety, so he wheeled over a cart with five options: Bardstown Bourbon Company Fusion Series bourbon, Yoichi Single Malt, Nikka Whiskey from the Barrel, Compass Box Glasgow Blend Scotch, and Single Cask Nation Inchgower 10 Year Scotch. We passed on the Yoichi, which was expensive for a frivolous nightcap, but tried the other four, which the bartender poured into lovely little snifters. I'm not a whiskey expert or anything, but they were all pretty delicious. We woke up the next morning feeling mild regret, but we had a great time at Bar Jackalope, and I'm glad we went. I'd recommend it if you like drinking whiskey in peace. read more

I had the opportunity to enter into Bar Jackalope and had a pleasant experience. We visited new years even before the craziness started. We got seating on the outside patio. They have endless options of whiskey. They give you a book with a list of whiskeys to go through. The gentleman that was tending to us was personable. For a whiskey love it's a must try at least once. read more

Great bourbon, classy atmosphere, knowledgeable and friendly staff! I made reservations since the last time I went to Seven Grand, I wasn't able to get in. The name and theme are Japanese, but they have an extensive list of premium bourbons and other types of non-Japanese whiskey. My impression is that Bar Jackalope is where Seven Grand's allocated (fancy) bottles go. Still, you can have a great time here even if you don't know much about whiskey (as long as you like it). Our server/bartender/whatever you'd call him (I think his name was Peter) went above and beyond assisting us. He was really attentive, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable about whiskey. As soon as he mentioned that GTS and Eagle Rare come from the same Buffalo Trace mash bill (#1), I was impressed. He also spent time with us (and other tables) talking, joking, making recommendations, and giving anecdotes. For pricing and pours, you have three options: a "flight" price for 2/3rds of an ounce, a full 2oz pour, and the 2oz pour of your choice in an old fashioned, Manhattan, or highball. You pay the 2oz-pour price for the cocktail version (at least, that's how it worked for the old fashioned). The flight price is proportional to the full-pour price, so there's no incentive to choose one or the other. You CAN get just one "flight"-sized pour; there's no minimum number of 2/3rd-ounce pours to qualify for a flight. Also, some whiskeys did not have a full-pour option--and others (including Blanton's SFTB) weren't on the menu at all. 2/3rds of an ounce was more than enough to feel satisfied trying some of my bucket-list bourbons. They have enough heavily allocated bourbons that I'm definitely coming back. In addition to George T Stagg, they had Eagle Rare 17, Old Forester Birthday Bourbon, Pappy 20, King of Kentucky, Elijah Craig 18... You get the idea. The Eagle Rare 10 old fashioned was good, but if you're invested enough in whiskey to come here for an allocated pour, you probably already make old fashioneds the way you want at home. read more

A speakeasy where they curate a whiskey selection for you in an intimate setting? Sign me up! Get a reservation as quick as you can because Bar Jackalope is such an awesome experience. It's located on the second floor within Seven Grand, and since it's located near the back, many people might miss it/not know that it even exists. You go up to the door and press a button and the hostess will come and greet you and take you to your table. When we arrived, there were two other parties (5-6 people each) with another couple arriving later. There's more seating outside where you can smoke cigars etc but we were inside the whole time. Extremely intimate and aesthetically calming, this place has the right speakeasy energy. Our bartender Nathan (Nate?) was such a great host! We are not huge whiskey drinkers so having him curate small pours of 6 different whiskeys (which they bring out on a cute bar cart) made the experience that much better. Each whiskey was from a different country/region and had their own flavor/burn to them which was really cool to experience. I much rather prefer this setting since he was so accommodating vs. the more stuffy/pompous wine tasting things. I am a whisky novice so being able to feel comfortable was a huge plus! Even if you're not the biggest fan of whiskey, I encourage you to still visit Bar Jackalope because the experience itself is worth it. read more

If you've been waiting for a reason to go this is your sign everything. From the time we walked in the crowd and ambiance very welcoming.

Bar Jackolope is hands down THE BEST whisky speakeasy/bar in all of Los Angeles. I've been to many places to get drinks, and several others to try specifically just whisky, and this place just always has a spot at the top of my list of best places to hangout in Los Angeles. I've been coming here regularly for a year now and it has garnered a special place in my heart. It's not just because of the spectacular drinks that they make, but also the incredible staff that make the experience just that much more special. No matter what your alcoholic preference are, even if you "don't partially like to drink whisky", there is always something that will be available to suite even the most pickiest of pallets. The whisky curators are legendary for their skill in being able to provide to you the best recommendations based on your current taste profile and from there you can expand your pallet into the wonderful world of rare and one of a kind whiskies from all over the globe. Peter, Hayley, Kyrece, Laura, Lauren, and Austin, have been taking care of me since the beginning of my patronage to the bar and have treated me with nothing but the highest of care. I have had incredible experiences at this place from nights out with the boys smoking cigars, to date nights with some beautiful women, and to evenings with my family for a special occasion. Each experience just as good as the last. They have an exclusive selection of some of the worlds rarest and finest whiskies along with some of the well known brands. If you are an enjoyer of fine drinks and an intimate/one of a kind experience, then look no further. The staff at bar Jackolope will make sure you are taken care of and given the highest quality of service. Even my friends who say that they don't like whiskey, end up loving this place too. Take my word for it, you won't be dissatisfied. Last note, I know that there are a few negative reviews, I've read many of them and they are coming from folks that do not frequent this business. Those who regularly come to this place know that the staff are nothing but wonderful, attentive, and knowledgeable. There is no intention to give any customer they have anything less than an exceptional time. I implore you to take the negative reviews you read with a grain of salt because most of the negative reviews I've been reading are coming from people who don't frequent this business and would rather write a negative review to smear the reputation of this lovely establishment rather than communicate with the manager like mature adults and sort the situation out. The experiences I've been having from this place, for the past year, while coming to this place literally every single week, has been nothing less than exceptional. I know you will find it captivating as well. Thank you again the staff of bar Jackolope for making my many visits to your business nothing less than extraordinary. I've had a pleasure being your customer and it's been an even bigger pleasure for me to take the time to leave you and the world this honest review. Looking forward to many more.

Bar Jackalope - Enjoying an old fashioned with some jamon and almonds - Whiskey Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Got here at around 9 on a Saturday, party of 6, with a reservation to celebrate my birthday. We got seated right away. I opted to get an outside table so I could enjoy a cigar with my whiskey. Staff was knowledgeable and helpful. My only issue is with the pricing. Some pours cost what the entire bottle is worth! However, I will say they had some very reasonably priced pours and also beer for 6 dollars, I believe? So you can ball on a budget if you wanted to. Me? Celebrating my birthday, I wasn't willing to pay 48 plus dollars for a taste! But, I did get a few in the teens to 20ish dollar range, fired up a nice cigar, and had a great time! They have sparkling water on tap, that was a plus I highly recommend it for an intimate gathering or small group of friends with a reservation. read more

One was a preference for Speyside single malts, the other was for wine barrel aged bourbons. Venue was cozy and intimate, and care was taken to make sure it never felt rushed or crowded in the space.

We had dinner at Zaya and went outside looking for a bar Jackalope. Then realized 700 grande was inside the same place as Zaya. We took all 8 million stairs up to 700 grande but it was sooo worth it. Total classy dark elegant speak easy feel. We worded the Mak attack??? (I am sure I have this wrong) and and old fashion. Amazing drinks!! We decided to have look around and look and behold in the back was BAR JACKALOPE!!! Exactly what we're looking for. There is an actual separate bar in the back where bar Jackalope is. We ordered Gentleman jack neat and headed outside to smoke cigars. The area is small but nice seat up and it was a quiet spot from the growing crowd. The bar tenders were attentive and welcoming. And the gentleman who helped us with getting our cigars was super helpful. Now, I am no cigar connoisseur but I felt like they were pretty expensive ($30 per cigar!). They seemed pretty good...you definitely get a buzz with those bad boys. Over all 5/5. Recommend! read more

Bar Jackalope - Whiskey Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Located in the Seven Grand Bar, the hidden bar on the second floor inside a small corner is a whisky bar just like Seven Grand. Bar Jackalope is a Speakeasy bar. As soon as you enter the bar, you can feel the whole atmosphere is very comfortable. There are not many seats, and two bigger tables in the corner seat 6 people each, and there are about 2 small tables that can seat 4 people each. Cigars can be smoked outside, but I have not yet had the opportunity to try it. This is my second visit. In addition to a variety of whiskeys, there is also Kavalan whisky from Taiwan, which is really exciting! There are only three kinds of cocktails here: Old Fashioned, Manhattan, and Japanese Highball. People who don't usually drink whisky can start with Highball, because the other two cocktails are very strong! 位於Seven Grand酒吧內，二樓小角落的隱藏酒吧，跟Seven Grand一樣都是威士忌酒吧，Bar Jackalope是Speakeasy酒吧，一入內就感覺到整個氣氛很舒適，室內位置不多，角落兩桌約可各坐6人，小桌約有2桌可各坐4人，室外則可抽雪茄，目前尚未有機會嘗試。這次是第二次到訪，除了有各種威士忌之外，竟然也有來自台灣的噶瑪蘭威士忌，真的是太讓人開心了！這裡只有三種調酒，Old Fashioned, Manhattan, Japanese Highball。平常不太喝威士忌的人可以先從 Highball 開始，因為另外兩種調酒都超級有誠意非常濃烈！ read more

I was so excited to come here as my husband and I are big whiskey drinkers. I ordered a 2 oz pour of a nikka yoichi single malt which was $45. The server told us the 10 year would be $65, only $20 more (word for word by the server, Peter Ha). I enjoyed the single malt and took Peter's advice and tried a 2oz of the nikka yoichi 10 year. When the bill came, the price was $195 for 2oz of Nikka yoichi 10 yr, over 3 times the initial quoted amount. After receiving the bill, Peter told us $65 was the amount for a 2/3 oz, which was not disclosed initially. We felt scammed and duped. We paid the ridiculous bill and left. This place should learn how to do business. We will never come back. read more

Amazing little speakeasy housed inside Seven Grand in DTLA. You go upstairs and go to a closed door at the start of a narrow hallway lined with Bar Jackalope's whiskey locker. Ring the bell and staff will come out to let you know if they have room to accommodate your party. Once inside, you have the option to sit inside the small indoor area, or go to the even smaller partially covered outdoor patio. Our group opted for the patio. You are able to smoke outside and they do offer cigarillos for sale. If you don't care for cigar or cigarette smoke, I suggest you stick to the indoor area. Once seated, they bring you hot towels to wipe your hands. Nice touch, because who doesn't love a hot towel? The young man taking care of us during our visit was wonderful. He was so knowledgeable and actually excited about whiskey. You'd have to be to work here - they have an extensive selection. Our waiter was truly a whiskey geek in the nicest way. He offered up some wonderful recommendations based on what type of whiskey our group wanted to try. He also explained how to become a member (members get priority entry into BJ) - if you purchase a bottle, it is kept for you (labeled with your name) in their whiskey locker in front of the entrance. Whenever you come in, you can have them take out your bottle to enjoy. I'm not a big bar fly, however I loved the vibe in Bar Jackalope - comfortable and sophisticated all at once, quiet enough to hear the conversation, and hip enough to make you feel like you're one of the cool kids. While sipping on our whisky, we ordered some boozy chocolates and a plate of iberico ham. That ham was the best ham I've ever tasted - soft, nutty, salty, and luscious. Everyone in our party agreed that we would 10/10 come back. Such a great place to hang out with friends. read more

What an amazing an wonderful whiskey bar located within another bar. Fits less than 20 people. Intimate. Great for dates, not groups. Very plush environment and tastefully decorated. Speakeasy appeal is fun. read more
