secret bar
Concealed drinking establishment
A secret bar is a drinking establishment that conceals its entrance or location, requiring patrons to know where to find it.
The concept descends from Prohibition-era speakeasies, though modern secret bars treat the hidden entrance as atmosphere rather than necessity—a door behind a phone booth, an unmarked alley entrance, a bookcase that swings open: We found a secret bar behind a laundromat.
