Only 2 bartenders working upstairs at The Happiest Hour? There are 3 down here. Great date spot, Tahitian Coffee is fun but Cleopatra with cachaça is the standout.

Relive Hollywood in the 50's. Excellent (pricey) cocktails. Must try the Tahitian Coffee for two; a cold brew infused, fruity beast served in a Chemex coffee maker.

There are classics like Old Fashioneds and Martinis. Before descending into drunkenness, try one of their bar snacks, like the mac n' cheese bites and a smoked fish dip served with Ritz crackers. Read more

Snag a candle lit table in this intimate 50s Hollywood themed speakeasy and order the "If Wishes Were Horses." Smoky sweet combination goes great with their potato chips, on the house.

(expensive) spicy cocktails and bonsai chicken both great: it’s not the best speakeasy out there but it’s a good one

At 1st turned off by the extreme ambience of the Happiest Hour, but the bouncer stop us from leaving and directed us to Slowly Shirley instead. Major props 👍🏼Loved my drink, Cleopatra

the grown up, more pricey, sultry version of upstairs, The Happiest Hour. if you're into old fashioneds like me, they have about 5 different types. Order a burger too while you're at it.

Come into Happiest Hour and head downstairs for a quieter but still buzzy speakeasy environment. Really dug the second spicy cocktail.
Andy RooMay 31, 2015
Entrance is downstairs! Fresh approach to a classic menu, with cocktails emphasising balance and spirit types (even paying tribute to the drink's creator.) Cherry O Baby is no joke.

Cool underground speakeasy with an “at seas” theme. Drinks are all delicious! The matcha one is my fave. Cool vibes and romantic.

Cool new speakeasy Slowly Shirly"Quilty" - smoky Islay Scotch, Mescal, Bourbon, Galliano Ristretto, Amontillado Sherry

High quality cocktails, grown up vibe, good date spot as its not too loud.
Alex RavenelMay 18, 2016
Forget about Happiest Hour, head downstairs to this spot. Same food menu, better cocktail list.
Caroline ChungMarch 5, 2016
Conversational level noise bar with good cocktail list. If cocktails were not almost $20 each, I would drink more...although they can be strong!

If you’re looking for the opposite of a holiday cocktail, go here and order a Cleopatra. This is for the people that would rather spend the holidays somewhere warm, which does weird me out to the max. Read more

Seductive cocktail bar that puts a few too many ingredients in their cocktails. No such thing as simple, but the menu is we extensive.
James JJanuary 31, 2016
Escape the craziness upstairs and enjoy a cocktail. The skull tiki mug is a winner
Randall NovalMarch 16, 2016
Solid, tasty cocktails made by knowledgeable staff. I will go here again.
Red & BrownJuly 15, 2015
Grab a friend & get a Tahitian Coffee and a couple of their oh so delicious burgers.
Gianna SantelliAugust 2, 2015
A cocktail and burger combo here is heaven. Great little oasis from downtown craziness.
Daria ZatsepinaFebruary 24, 2016
Such a cute spot for drinks . Cocktails are delicious stuff is very helpful
Meg FarmerNovember 30, 2015
A bit overrated in my opinion. Still not sure I'm digging the decor, but go with a date and you're sure to enjoy the company and strong drinks.
Natalie VApril 30, 2016
Downstairs from the happiest hour - has a similar menu, but the burgers served to us were lukewarm and not nearly as good as what is served upstairs. Not sure why...
Alberto SimonFebruary 14, 2016
A really nicely designed cocktail bar with tasty drinks and good vibes
TrevorMay 11, 2016
Some of the priciest cocktails in town, and not the best cocktails in town.
Jose FuentesFebruary 2, 2018
Fun space for a Friday night. Inventive cocktails.
jason pJuly 12, 2015
Great cocktails, friendly service, not too crowded. Will return
Craig AustinJanuary 3, 2016
Awesome cocktail list and burgers from upstairs.

Secret bar under the Happiest Hour, knowledgeable mixologists.

Bonsai chicken and tiki drinks. Amazing.

Quilty drink is the best.

Lesley ForresterMarch 18, 2016
Fab date spot but on the expensive side
Jacob GyllenstiernaMay 29, 2017
Ask for their Old-Fashioned menu.
CharlottesMarch 15, 2016
Great place for a night cap but not open very late.
Andrew SAugust 12, 2015
Great signature drinks.

Try the Tahitian Coffee
DavidJune 17, 2018
Check the seasonal cocktails.
Mayank MahajanJuly 15, 2018
The space is nice but the drinks are kinda weak. Happiest Hour is better.
Gary DitucciMarch 4, 2016
No Happy Hour on Friday? Not HAPPY👎😂
David DunhillJanuary 11, 2016
Mediocre mixology. Drinks tend towards the too sweet or just not good.
