The Back Room: Speakeasy


The Back Room:


Address: 102 Norfolk St nr. Delancey St.


Why do I love this place?? because it’s a speakeasy bar that fronts as closed toy shop. You have to creep down an alley to find the entrance, the front door has a peek and-speak hole. All drinks are served in teacups and bottles in paper bags. There is a piano that fronts as a DJ booth that creates a casual, laid back atmosphere. In the back there is a sliding bookcase that reveals a second bar (which is not open to the public, unless you know the owner or password). Highly recommend for flapper/gangster theme parties.
