Business Description

The Back Room is an iconic speakeasy located in New York, known for its authentic atmosphere reminiscent of the Roaring Twenties. As one of only two surviving speakeasies that operated during Prohibition, this venue offers a glimpse into the past where notable figures, including infamous gangsters and Hollywood stars, once mingled. The original establishment, known as "The Back of Ratner's," was a hotspot for secretive gatherings. Guests can expect to enjoy their cocktails served in delicate tea cups, a nod to the era's creative attempts to sidestep the law. With a trendy ambiance, The Back Room invites visitors to step into a world where history and modernity blend seamlessly for a unique nightlife experience. Although the drink menu is limited, the charm and allure of the location make it a must-visit destination for those looking to immerse themselves in New York's rich history.

Gift Tips

  • Experience the unique charm of drinks served in tea cups for an authentic speakeasy vibe.
  • Visit on a weekday to enjoy a more relaxed atmosphere, as weekends can get quite crowded.
  • Be sure to check the hours since it's cash only during the week; plan accordingly for a smooth visit.
  • Look for the toy store sign outside the alley for the discreet entrance to this hidden gem.
  • Try the Angel Envy Old Fashioned cocktail; it has received positive feedback for its exceptional taste.
