Speakeasy Lounge

Um....yikes is all I can say. Definitely not my scene.

The prohibition-era inspiration of the Speakeasy Lounge ensures this is an interesting place to visit. There's low, red-tinted lighting, tommy guns hanging above the bar, and a bar scene painting that is repeated in sections across the room. The aquarium built into the front, exterior wall seems totally random, but I think it's alluding to the midnight liquor boat runs from Canada to the east coast way back in the 20's. Having a 20s themed night would be an amazing idea for this joint.

Sundays are karaoke nights and some amazing singers show up. Not to mention the girls who set up the karaoke are great to listen to!

Drinks are $5-$7. The bartender, Justin (or is it Dustin?) is pretty nice when it comes to offering their $3 drinks. There's a female bartender that was working last Sunday who did not care at all for making my drink! I asked for a cherry and she just ignored me! Funny since I was the only one at the bar! I would definitely avoid that one. Also, the security guys are totally weird. They're over eager to take your empty glasses away but can't spare a minute for a joke while checking IDs.

Whenever I'm in this place, the crowd is younger and not as ready to throw down as some other places. I would be very surprised to see a fight happen here.

And this may be totally an individual experience, but every time I come into this bar, my contacts dry out. Is it the smoke? The dim, almost sleepy lighting?

This place has a nice decor an ambiance.  I love the martini shaped chairs. But cmon alright ya got the set up that's a good start but it takes more then that.  The band they have is pretty wack. The bouncers seemed pretty hammered off all the shots I saw them taking an the bartender seemed to distracted by all the females in the bar to serve me a drink.  The crowd is pretty snooty an snobbish too. Not a very comfortable crowd to be in. There weren't anyone that seems interesting there.  The people are kind of a bore.  I went out the back an left.  The drinks are way overpriced too.
