Very cool little basement cocktail bar - great authentically friendly service. We ordered two specialty cocktails, one was good, the other was unbalanced in flavors (A Rainy Night in Soho). It is a small place designed for a chill vibe but the 17th Ave crowds try and pack in, so expect to wait on a Saturday night. More

  • Bonnie Lowson

Cool atmosphere and good food but I don’t think the drinks had much alcohol in them, despite saying they were 2oz. I’ve had about three drinks in the past year, so I am normally buzzed after an ounce of alcohol but I felt no buzz at all after drinking two of these cocktails in one hour, nor did my husband. More

  • Janna Olynick

Everything about this place made for a cool and fun experience. The decor/vibe/atmosphere were awesome; staff were friendly and knowledgable; food was quick and tasty; and the cocktails were unique and delicious! The drinks were my favourite part, as there was such a variety and they were all so tasty! More

  • Caitlin Thompson

Great atmosphere and service. Music was great as well! Super cool space, definitely worth checking out! Cocktails were really good as well, decent variety! What we had tried tasted great and looked great! The pork belly was very juicy and flavourful. We would definitely come back to try some more cocktails.

  • Kasia Gajewska

A speakeasy with a relaxed atmosphere and great music. Great service from the moment you get in. The cocktails are flavourful and served in various types of beautiful glassware. The architecture with the brick columns and arches and different seating spaces add to the cool vibe of this place. More

  • Venkee Sharma

An unforgettable experience! Celebrated my birthday at this hidden gem and was blown away. Impeccable service, the staff were attentive and friendly. The cocktails were masterpieces, each sip a journey of flavors. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a unique and top-notch evening out. More

  • Chris Erickson

I loved this place. They had creative drinks and the atmosphere was awesome. Generally you will want to make reservations and you may want to plan a little extra time to find the entrance. It is another great spot amongst the growing list of hidden speakeasy's in Calgary. More

  • Karen V

Very friendly staff, Outstanding atmosphere. It was a nice experience but don't think I will go back. Cocktails are "OK" nothing special for $18 - lots of ice, not much alcohol..... Food is underwhelming with limited options. Calgary has better cocktail bars. More

  • Maria Spengler

5 stars hands down. Despite the fact that half of the food menu wasn’t available. The interior design, the old brick basement, the lighting and the drinks were implacable. The understated entry only contributed to the uniqueness of this bar. Lovely staff too. More

  • Meg G

The atmosphere was great as well as the service. We enjoyed the drinks and the food, however, when my partner and I got home we fell sick with food poisoning after eating here. Will probably never eat here again but will be back for drinks for sure. More

  • Jean Mathieu

Hidden little cocktail bar with a dark and fun atmosphere. The cocktails are unique and the selection will accommodate sweeter and drier tastes. The perfect place for a small group of friends to get together for a night out, or for a first date. More

  • Scott Denoon

Fantastic addition to the cocktail scene in Calgary. Speakeasy vibes in beautifully decorated brick basement. Interesting cocktails with something for everyone. Fills up quickly so recommend a reservation, especially if you’ve got a big group.

  • Christopher Zsofcsin

Great new "hidden" bar. Very relaxed atmosphere inside with chill music and unique sitting areas. There isn't a lot if seating so it's probably better to make reservations and there isn't much privacy between seating areas. Drinks and food

I came here Saturday evening for some drinks and a few snacks with my girlfriend! We were so lucky we had the beautiful Megan as our server. Not only was she attentive, but also a very pleasant human in general. She recommended the chicken

  • T Win

Despite it being packed here on a weekend, my visit was still great because the bartenders were very attentive and hospitable. The drinks were efficiently made and they tasted delicious and balanced. They were sold out of 1 of the drink

  • Shelley Chan

What a treat! Beautiful space, inventive menu, perfectly made cocktails, friendly and helpful staff. Had a disappointing drink around the corner and was looking for cocktail bar redemption when we saw this place and we're intrigued. It

We went for a date night and were seated at a dirty table with glasses still on it. They were blasting rap music so loud we could barely hear each other which kind of killed the whole speak easy vibe. The food was very good and the

Melanie was above expectations. Arrived late without a reservation. No problem stopped at the bar for a few min before she sat us at the prime time couch. 10/10 would come back just for the friendly service. More

Everything was on point. I can’t wait to go back. I hope it’ll be the same experience. Food was tasty and quick, drinks were promising and the malted chocolate rice pudding was dreamy delicious. More

An all around 5 star experience. Who ever designed this place deserves an award. The layout, the ambiance...the vibe just set a perfect mood. The service was world class on this night and only

  • Natascia Vervena

I am very mixed about this cocktail bar. The atmosphere is super cute and intimate, feels like you are in another country. The staff were all amazing, extremely friendly and considerate.

  • K Sangha

My partner and I came here and really enjoyed the atmosphere, it’s a small space but felt cozy. One caveat was the music was too loud esp with some seats having speakers right overhead.

  • Graham Black

Atmosphere was cosy, clean and retro. Cocktail menu was awesome. Very original, clever ingredients. Well worth a visit. This place is the least pretentious cocktail bar in Calgary.

  • Michael G

I really enjoyed my visit, with one minor issue. Fantastic drink menu, very interesting and tasty bar snacks. The staff were fantastic and the ambiance I just loved.

Cocktails are delicious and the space is beautiful. Was happy to stumble upon this place accidentally - will absolutely be back on nights out. More
