    Have frequented this place in the way past. It's no longer the place it was though it seems like "putting lipstick on a pig".LOL. NO PRICES ON MENU???!! Immediately put off by pushy bartender pushing high end drinks. I love high end drinks... don't try to handle me. Settled down. Enjoyed my specific cocktail... have huge history here...met my wife here 26 years ago!! They comped us a creme brulee... one of the best I've ever had. Met "Swan"... their security detail. Great guy! We will go back.

    Very cool Prohibition Era speakeasy. A little hard to find around the side of a building and downstairs. Staff is dressed historically accurate. Very cool ambiance. I didn't try the food but the craft drinks are amazing!

    Their specialty espresso martini...I think it's called the 1776 or something.

    Loved the vibe of this cool little speakeasy! A great list of drinks, very cool atmosphere, music to set the tone, and even live music on weekends. I enjoyed just chilling with a drink, feeling so welcomed. Their theme is democracy based, with quotes on the wall from Kennedy & and everyone is welcome vibe. Try to wear something sharp...because remember...it's a speakeasy, not a pub!

    Loved this spot, the vibe, the jazz, the service were all on point. Nice and cozy for the cold weather and they made some great drinks

    Bar decor...skulls and spirits.

    Amazing service. Amazing cocktails. Amazing music and ambiance. You would never imagine that this place existed from the exterior. Truly a hidden gem. An entirely top notch experience from beginning to end. Can't wait to go back!

    Love the atmosphere here. The decor is perfect for a basement speakeasy, and the service is top notch. There is plenty of seating at the large O shaped bar, and the table seating is really nice as well. I have not tried the food, but there are several small bites included on the menu. Of course, the stars of the show are the cocktails, and we have never had a bad one here! On last night's visit, I had a deleicious berry cocktail, my friend had a "Dead Man's Redemption (basically a Manhattan), and my other friend had the "Treasure Island", which included rum and pineapple. Wish this speakeasy was in the middle of our neighborhood, but it is so worth the drive!

    we went to for a night cap. best pistachio martini Ive ever had! they make all the desert in house and unfortunately we're out of most because it was the end of the night, but we were able to try the vanilla bourbon gelato paired with raspberry sorbet omg my new favorite flavor. The vibe and live music were awesome and we were told they will be opening a second larger location soon.

    Amazing speakeasy in Warwick. Dimly lit space with a good amount of seating inside. They have a pretty diverse selection of cocktails. The dead man's redemption was really good; the smoke show was a nice touch. The corpse reviver was expertly crafted and tasted delicious. Overall great experience, I'd definitely return. The service was great.

    A great local cocktail bar, known for hand crafted and specialty drinks. We enjoyed the espresso martini and banana crème Brûlée cocktail. Great wrap-around bar and cozy atmosphere. Helpful and friendly service, offering us water when we sat down. The servers are also dressed like old-time speakeasy bartenders which is a nice touch.

    Shareable drink!

    Step back in time at the Jefferson Speakeasy. Enjoy one of their specialty cocktails from days past! The service is impeccable, the ambiance is what you would expect from a classic speakeasy. When I want a special cocktail this is my go to location!

    This was my second visit to Jefferson's. While I can't eat any of their amazing sounding food (as I can't have gluten...), the drinks always impress. The vibe is dark, moody, swanky and classy, without being pretentious. How they accomplish this is beyond me. The service is absolutely impeccable. The drinks are straight from an era long gone, with the most amazing sazerac I've ever had. The showmanship that goes into each interaction truly makes this establishment a place to sit and rest a while.

    They have a creamy white chowder with added bacon and actually has clams in it up like other places…read morenot too far away.... The entire food menu has improved this year. The service is great at times they do get very busy. It is on the waterfront in Nice days it can get very busy as with any open air restaurant on the water in the summer Yesterday we had Kailey at the bar.... She is always exceptional.... Attentive.... Pleasant... Ann knows her job...

    Visited this place today, two days after it reopened after the much-talked-about sudden closure…read moreabout a week ago. Anyhoo, arrived close to 2 PM on a Sunday, and the outdoor seating was busy enough, but still had enough seats available that we were able to get a table facing the marina. We decided on a glass of Poseidon (margarita) in mango. I asked for a salt-rimmed glass and did get one. The server informed me that the margarita comes with Casamigos tequila unless I preferred something else. I didn't care to change it, so I agreed. When I received the bill, I noticed I was charged $14 for the margarita and $2 for Casamigos tequila. I didn't appreciate this. This was not how she explained it to me. I would have been content with a well/house/bottom-shelf tequila. For starters, we chose the Calamari. For the main, we got the Krabby Patty Sliders and Shrimp Burgers, but we were told the latter was out, so we settled for Smoke on the Water (Brisket Sandwich served on a pretzel bun). I opted for the side salad vs. the fries, as a side to accompany the sliders, and the serving was generous. The Calamari was crispy on the outside but overcooked. The Krabby Patty sliders were good, while the Brisket was okay. The bun was a bit dry. If they were too busy in the kitchen this day after the 4th of July, having just reopened two days before, the food quality may have just been hustled through. I would give this spot another visit, but for today, this was our experience. I am still giving this place 4 stars because I appreciate its presence in my neighborhood, and like that it is dog-friendly. On days when it's not crazy busy, I may bring my doggies in for the promised bacon treat.
