Super hidden speakeasy with password entrances and hidden doors. The drinks are carefully crafted and reasonably priced for the experience. It's a nice quiet place to have conversation and enjoy a few drinks. Reservations are needed and you will get the password for the night upon making the reservation. Definitely worth a try!

I have been wanting to try Bourbon & Branch for ten years and it was well worth the wait! The whole experience is intense; the location, the password to gain entry, the atmospheric lighting, the era style drinks, even the house rules (don't even think about ordering a cosmo) lend to its authenticity.

When you first knock on the door, it doesn't look like there's much to it and then you follow your telegrammed instructions and the doors open and just...wow! Floor to ceiling behind the bar is shelves and shelves of bottles, the booths are intimate, very soft music from the Prohibition era is playing on a record somewhere. Our bartender kindly reminded us that this place is a speakeasy - it's quiet, you speak quiet, you can't let anyone know you're in there drinking the illegal spirits, and almost? unfortunately I didn't take any pictures. The drinks our bartender made were delicious! I didn't think I would like a cocktail with scotch but I was wrong! My two friends got a sour and an absinthe cocktail and we all tasted each others! I don't remember his name but the bartender took the time to explain their menu as well as the history of the place! So cool! We loved every minute of this place. Thank you for the wonderful experience :)
