Great speakeasy! We loved it! We love going to speakeasy in NYC and this place is on par with NYC’s speakeasies. Hidden, great entrance with a passcode, inside was well decorated, drinks were unique- they talked to us before they made the drinks that suited us- pretty cool, dimmed, great food, staff was supper friendly. Only downside was that the band that was supposed to show up for live music cancelled last minute so that’s the only reason for the 4. This place was amazing. Thank you so much for a great date night.
Nice feature of it being a speakeasy within a bar. Good drinks, great musicians, super intimate setting. Make sure you make reservations & get your password.
The Exhibition Room is located inside Roxanne's. We often go to Roxx bc they have good food and drinks. The juice is freshly squeezed, which makes a great cocktail! We always get the beef sliders and the herb fries (can't rmbr what they are called) plus a big pile of nachos.
Absolutely love this cocktail bar. Amazing vibe, great drinks, and my bar tender was incredibly friendly. Highly recommend checking this spot out.
2nd time here at the Exhibition Room and I have to say that it was as enjoyable as the first time I was here 3 years ago. Walk through Roxanne's bar straight towards the pool table and make a left at the phone booth. Pick up the phone, buzz it in, yell the person your password, BE PATIENT, then walk in when ready. The atmosphere is excellent! They open up at 7pm. We had a reservation for 715pm for 6 then for 5 @730pm and all went without a hitch. There was enough room for everyone at our table at this time. About 930 it starts to get very lively! The music starts flowing, live tuba and piano begin playing and the place starts to get a little crowded and loud. The drinks here are on the pricier side as to be expected, but fantastic! Mixologist know their stuff for sure! Any type of alcohol I threw at them they knew what t make or made it in the fly. From mezcal to your everyday martini they got your drink covered. The wait for drinks start to get long about 930ish because there was only two mixologist working and trying to tend to many, many people at a time SO IF YOU BE PATIENT, WAIT YOUR TURN AND THEY'LL SERVE YOU WITHOUT ANY ISSUES. If you're going to be impatient while in in here, THEN THIS IS NOT THE PLACE FOR YOU! So, come here, ENJOY THE ATMOSPHERE, BE PATIENT AND UNDERSTANDING, get your drink on and hang out. CHEERS!
Very nice Speakeasy, our waitress was super friendly and knowledgeable about the drinks we're good.
The exhibition room can be found by walking thru the phonebooths secret passageway. Once in the speakeasy is a nice place to enjoy a freshly made speciality cocktail! Great atmosphere!
The vibe at the Exhibition Room was great. There was even a couple dressed in retro clothing that really set the mood. They have a great list of vintage style cocktails as well as a great spirit list and great bartenders should you wanna go off book. They have lite eats but I would recommend eating before or after. Live music after 930 on the weekend.
