True to its name, this exclusive VIP lounge pays homage to the Prohibition era of the ’20s when the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages were outlawed in the United States. The secret entrance itself–a fire exit door at Dillingers 1903–is a clever nod to this clandestine past, accessible only to those in the know.
The cocktail menu at Prohibition Liquor Lounge is a testament to craftsmanship and creativity, featuring a range of classic and signature concoctions that reflect the sophistication of the era made by a New York-based mixologist who’s won several bartending championships.
