Whatever the reason, we love a good speakeasy! Luckily, our city has quite a number of discreet spots that serve legal drinks while replicating that speakeasy vibe. Below, find our guide to the best basements, nooks and hidden spots that welcome in-the-know imbibers. Been there, done that? Think again, my friend.
Post up at the bar, or in a cozy armchair, in one of antique packed rooms for an intimate night out. The bar offers a full modern New England menu, and throwback cocktails such as the paper plane and pomegranate gin fizz.
Next Door , a speakeasy and raw bar, is tucked away behind a hidden entrance near Pazza on Porter. By the name alone, you can tell this s-inspired bar is going to have a little fun, at the expense of our country's temperance movement and Prohibition history. To get the full speakeasy experience, head past the shoeshine stand and up the backstairs to the secret club. Here, the Beacon Hill establishment offers pool tables and intimate seating.
No matter which corner you choose to imbibe, you can select from a menu of both modern and old school cocktails, ranging from punches and barrel-aged libations to well-crafted classics. A backdoor entrance ensures a distinctly intimate experience, where burgundy walls, leather love seats and spinning vinyl impart a brooding aura.
