Prohibition may be over, but Thaxton Speakeasy honors that strange time with secret passwords and throwback drinks that resurrect that underground appeal. The bar embraces the modern times while nodding to the olden days, and the result is a trendy underground cellar with funky lighting and well-crafted cocktails made from housemade moonshine and bathtub gin. Thaxton regularly hosts DJs and dance parties, and offers a weekly password on its website that, when whispered to the doorman, will yield you a discount on admission.
