    A hidden speakeasy inside of Talay Thai restaurant. Enter Talay and immediately go left. Then, past the bathrooms straight ahead there is a brown wall. The hidden door which you push is on the right side. Once inside the bar it is super small inside. The tables along the wall are squished together. I think you're better off at the bar. I could see lots of people bringing dates here. First up, I tried a $17 Tree of Life. The drink the bartender made me was maybe 2 sips. There's a giant ice cube and a bamboo leaf or something and very little drink to drink. Not sure what to make of this because as soon as I was deciding if I liked it or not, it was gone. Wouldn't order this again. Second, I tried a $17 Adam & Eve. I wish the matcha was much stronger. There's a place in Tampa called Tori Bar that has a super duper matcha tasting cocktail. This one was much lighter. It was fine, not my favorite. Maybe I'd bring a date here sometime, but wouldn't go out of my way to come here.

    I love that this bar is a speakeasy. The cocktail menu is beautifully crafted. I also love that there's crafted mocktails for those that don't drink. I do like their type of foods what I honestly love about this bar is their playlist. They play R&B most nights. To be honest, it gives me Tori Tori Tori vibes, but less commotion. I definitely recommend this lounge after dinner or catching up with some friends.

    We came to celebrate one of our friends birthdays here. It was very interesting vibes; you walk through a hidden door near the bathrooms of its sister restaurant Talay. Then it's almost pitch dark as you enter and your eyes adjust to a very posh interior. We were here for weekday happy hour, but the drinks were still pretty pricey at around $10 to $13. The happy hour drinks also seemed to be lesser versions of their normal drinks. Their take on a matcha cocktail was pretty good, and a lot of their drinks were pretty strong and heavy handed on the alcohol. It seems like a good intimate spot for a date night. For a bigger group, it was a bit hard to hear with the music and acoustics inside. It looks like their drinks also rotate frequently, so there's always a new drink to try.

    Super moody & sexy speakeasy located in Talay. Absolutely loved the vibe and would definitely go back. The drinks I had were so amazing. The first drink I had included a piece of Ube brownie and was amazing. My favorite drink was the second one I ordered called Adam & Eve and it contained gin, Bailey's, pandan, matcha and was also served with coco rolls. The food was delicious also. I ordered skewers and crab fried rice. The music was a vibe and the overall atmosphere made me feel like I was in a super secret spot. It was busy but we were definitely pleased with the service. I have to come back to try Talay!

    The atmosphere of Noir feels elevated and intimate. A great spot for a date or small groups. I've had a few of their cocktails and loved them all. This time I got Adam & Eve, and even though I liked it, it was just too much for an entire drink. It was unique and I would have preferred this as a shot, because I didn't enjoy it as much as I kept drinking it. That's just a preference. I'll be back and will order other drinks.

    Before you even step into Noir Bar, you already get the sense that this isn't your typical downtown hangout -- it's moody, elevated, and gives off that intimate late-night lounge energy that's perfect for unwinding after a long day. Noir has quickly become one of my go-to cocktail spots downtown when I'm in the mood for something a little more refined. The space feels sleek and modern with dim lighting, cozy seating, and a vibe that leans more "hidden gem" than loud party bar. That said, it can get crowded during peak evening hours, especially on weekends, so plan accordingly if you're looking for a more relaxed experience. Top Drinks to Try: * Espresso Martini - smooth, bold, and dangerously easy to sip * Old Fashioned - classic, well-balanced, and beautifully presented * Lychee Martini - light, slightly sweet, and refreshing * Smoked Manhattan - rich flavor with a dramatic presentation * House Signature Cocktails - rotating menu that keeps things interesting The bartenders are knowledgeable and clearly passionate about craft cocktails -- you can tell they pay attention to detail with both flavor and presentation. Service felt attentive without being overbearing, which made the whole experience feel elevated but still approachable. Overall, Noir Bar Downtown is a solid choice for date nights, catching up with friends, or just treating yourself to a well-made drink in a stylish setting. If you enjoy creative cocktails, a chic atmosphere, and a little downtown nightlife energy, this spot is definitely worth checking out.

    So Noir is the speakeasy for Talay... and if you don't know it's there, you are not going to find it. When you enter Talay if you go to your left, through the door and pass the restrooms, just push on the wall and you are in. No secret codes or passwords. And "Hey!" what a wonderful place. Plenty of spirits and a great selection of signature craft cocktails. The cocktails are around $16 each which is to be expected for this type of establishment. The bartender was Archie and we created a cocktail together. See the recipe below. So you can't get a full meal from the restaurant next store, but you can order finger food. The ARCHIE... 1 Oz Condesa special edition prickly pear and orange blossom gin. 1/2 Oz St Germaine. 1/2 Oz lemon juice. 1/2 oz simple syrup ... garnish with a lemon and strawberry in a martini glass OR trade the simple syrup with strawberry puree and you are Keggin with Kerry

    The food and drinks were excellent. Everything was so flavorful. The only reason I did not give them 5 stars is because the service was very slow tonight. I did give them some grace because it seems like they may be short staffed. Every drink and every plate I got was very good and flavorful. The ambience is very upscale trendy but fun. I will be giving this place another try for 5 stars because I think on a less busy night it would be perfection.

    Finally got to experience this. Great spot downtown, not by too much traffic. Attached to the Thai place so it has a secret speakeasy feel. Clean, quaint, yet upscale and romantic. The glasses they serve drinks on are unique and the cocktails themselves are awesome! Such unique ingredients. One note: I enjoy garnishes, but as pretty or cute as some can be, always be sure to have at least one edible one. I enjoyed the gold. My husband's has babies breath in it. My saucer was so fun to drink from. Like an Asian tea.

    What a dark sexy speakeasy like bar! To get here, you have to go through the Thai restaurant, Talay. There is a hidden door that blends into the wall. The hostess of Talay opened it us for us and we walked into this hallway area then another door. The bar is dimly lit and the aesthetics are nice. We went on a weekday and there was only one bartender who was slinging drinks. The drinks are a bit pricey, but they're all unique and delicious. The food is a condensed version of next door and the bartender gave us some recs based on what we liked. The shrimp skewers and soft shell crab were both a hit and the seafood spicy sauce was incredible... I was still thinking about it the next day! Loved this place. Not a bar I'd go frequently since the drinks were all pricey but it's nice to start the night out here.

    My friend and I went on a Thursday evening during happy hour. We had delicious drinks, including Eden's ashes drink from the happy hour menu and also the Thai tea drink that they light on fire. The Thai tea drink was good, but you do taste the fire after it burns out. The skewers were amazing. I had the mushroom and bacon skewer and the pork belly. I would definitely recommend getting those. Tasty and unique mushrooms! It was not crowded. It's more of a chill place that you can enjoy good drinks and good food and good music. Try it! I parked at the garage around the corner on Park Lake Road.

    I really enjoyed my first visit to this cute speakeasy style bar. The service was kind of slow as the bartender was serving tables as well as tending to bar customers but she was nice when we interacted. The food and drinks were really good but make sure you aren't super hungry as most of the food selection is tapas style. Definitely give this place a shot if you have the opportunity.

    Serpent's Kiss

    Ok...definitely a place that thinks it's upscale but it's not. The atmosphere is try hard speakeasy and the other guests were dressed extremely casually sort of ruining the effect. Won't be back.

Real good vibes. Orlando obviously has no shortage of places to eat, drink, and gather, but Alfie's belongs to that rare category of venues that feel equally at home in a major metropolis. It's the kind of spot that would fit seamlessly into Los Angeles's best neighborhoods: think Gold Line in Highland Park or the Vinyl Room at the Hollywood Palladium. Not because they're carbon copies, but because they share that intangible quality of genuine discovery and cultural curiosity. The crowd ( age range 25 - 35 mostly ) was genuinely engaged with one another. People were actually talking, actually present, not hunched over their phones. That alone felt invigorating. There was an undeniable spark in the room. Alfie's wasn't chasing trends; it was simply allowing them to emerge naturally. What impressed me most was how they brought it all together .. Retro stereo equipment and vinyl players from the 50s mixed with a bar area that's super sleek and modern. Conversations, music, the lounge itself .... all came together in a way that felt alive and IN THE MOMENT. When my LA friends visit, Alfie's is on the list.
