Absolutely amazing atmosphere! We loved the drinks, the bartender was super cool, we had an awesome discussion about some of the drinks on the menu. One of my favorite spots in the whole KC area. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

The most fun, unique, secret experience. Friendly bartenders and very knowledgeable. Order of their main drink menu or share you fac combos and its an influenced dealers choice! So fun! Already looking for local speakeasy back home in MN!

Had not been there in quite some time. Nothing like I remember it being. Nothing about it says ‘speak easy’. High top tables crammed into the space, modern music (it is a speak easy right? Thought music would be era appropriate), every light in the place was on high, so no dark nostalgic vibes and PRE-MADE DRINKS!!! The drinks were good but they are PRE-MADE!!! Part of my past experience was watching the bartenders making CRAFT COCKTAILS. Just not like it used to be. Service: 3 Atmosphere: 1

This bartender's sheer ignorance and hypocrisy are astounding! He dared to question my knowledge about creating foam on a drink, only to arrogantly dismiss it saying he doesn't have time for that. Next time, maybe try understanding your customer before throwing out challenges. Listen, mixing a sugar cube and rye doesn't make you an expert in crafting an Old Fashioned. You seriously need to get out more and learn what true bartending is about. Honestly, with your current skill set, you're better off flipping burgers than pretending to be a bartender. Goes for the bald guy behind bar making fun of people. It doesn’t cost much to be nice but I guess you won’t understand that as you are stuck in your own fairly land little world. Next time own your responsibility and be a man enough to say you are not capable of bartending. Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1

Cool speakeasy spot in downtown Lee’s Summit with top notch drinks. I recently moved from Chicago and can say this place certainly compares if not better than the speakeasies in downtown Chicago. Extremely knowledgeable bartenders that really bring a show to each cocktail. Just tell them what you like and they are sure to make you something you won’t forget. Highly recommend! See my pics and menu for further inspiration to go.

Great experience. Took my wife there for her 40th and she had an amazing time. Great tasting drinks. Bartender was very nice & knowledgeable. Made us drinks not on the menu from my wife’s preferences in flavor profiles. Make your reservations for at the bar, fun watching all the drinks being made.

What an awesome and cute bar! So comfortable. Great atmosphere. The "just give me a hug" and "carrot topper" were delicous. Seasonal drinks, reservations only. Very cozy, great staff. Loved the club chairs, can't wait to return!

I loved this place! I got the Cinnamon Smoke and it was a delectable sipping drink. I didn't make a reservation on a Friday night and they were still able to squeeze me in for a bit. The menu is impressive. It boats some very unique cocktails along with an exhaustive list of whiskeys. The ambiance is relaxed, cozy, and swanky. This is the type of place you come to just sit and sip on really great drinks and let the conversation flow with your date or a group of friends. I am excited to go back. I can think of several people who would enjoy this experience with me and can't wait to bring them here. Highly recommend!

Wonderful. Yes, the cocktails are 15+, but it's obvious that each one was selected with care. The depth of the recipes means that each sip of a cocktail like the tequila mockingbird is a full experience.

Super neat hole in the wall bar. Drinks are amazing and the ambiance is exactly what I expect out of a speakeasy-like bar. If you have the opportunity please sit at the bar top. These are experienced mixologist and they will actually explain the liquor and flavors. If you don’t see something on the menu that you like just ask them to make a personalized cocktail. Watch out for the old fashions… they will sneak up on you 😂 The best bar in lees summit downtown area hands down!
