    Have frequented this place in the way past. It's no longer the place it was though it seems like "putting lipstick on a pig".LOL. NO PRICES ON MENU???!! Immediately put off by pushy bartender pushing high end drinks. I love high end drinks... don't try to handle me. Settled down. Enjoyed my specific cocktail... have huge history here...met my wife here 26 years ago!! They comped us a creme brulee... one of the best I've ever had. Met "Swan"... their security detail. Great guy! We will go back.

    Very cool Prohibition Era speakeasy. A little hard to find around the side of a building and downstairs. Staff is dressed historically accurate. Very cool ambiance. I didn't try the food but the craft drinks are amazing!

    Their specialty espresso martini...I think it's called the 1776 or something.

    Loved the vibe of this cool little speakeasy! A great list of drinks, very cool atmosphere, music to set the tone, and even live music on weekends. I enjoyed just chilling with a drink, feeling so welcomed. Their theme is democracy based, with quotes on the wall from Kennedy & and everyone is welcome vibe. Try to wear something sharp...because remember...it's a speakeasy, not a pub!

    Loved this spot, the vibe, the jazz, the service were all on point. Nice and cozy for the cold weather and they made some great drinks

    Bar decor...skulls and spirits.

    Amazing service. Amazing cocktails. Amazing music and ambiance. You would never imagine that this place existed from the exterior. Truly a hidden gem. An entirely top notch experience from beginning to end. Can't wait to go back!

    we went to for a night cap. best pistachio martini Ive ever had! they make all the desert in house and unfortunately we're out of most because it was the end of the night, but we were able to try the vanilla bourbon gelato paired with raspberry sorbet omg my new favorite flavor. The vibe and live music were awesome and we were told they will be opening a second larger location soon.

    Love the atmosphere here. The decor is perfect for a basement speakeasy, and the service is top notch. There is plenty of seating at the large O shaped bar, and the table seating is really nice as well. I have not tried the food, but there are several small bites included on the menu. Of course, the stars of the show are the cocktails, and we have never had a bad one here! On last night's visit, I had a deleicious berry cocktail, my friend had a "Dead Man's Redemption (basically a Manhattan), and my other friend had the "Treasure Island", which included rum and pineapple. Wish this speakeasy was in the middle of our neighborhood, but it is so worth the drive!

    Amazing speakeasy in Warwick. Dimly lit space with a good amount of seating inside. They have a pretty diverse selection of cocktails. The dead man's redemption was really good; the smoke show was a nice touch. The corpse reviver was expertly crafted and tasted delicious. Overall great experience, I'd definitely return. The service was great.

    A great local cocktail bar, known for hand crafted and specialty drinks. We enjoyed the espresso martini and banana crème Brûlée cocktail. Great wrap-around bar and cozy atmosphere. Helpful and friendly service, offering us water when we sat down. The servers are also dressed like old-time speakeasy bartenders which is a nice touch.

    Shareable drink!

    Step back in time at the Jefferson Speakeasy. Enjoy one of their specialty cocktails from days past! The service is impeccable, the ambiance is what you would expect from a classic speakeasy. When I want a special cocktail this is my go to location!

    This was my second visit to Jefferson's. While I can't eat any of their amazing sounding food (as I can't have gluten...), the drinks always impress. The vibe is dark, moody, swanky and classy, without being pretentious. How they accomplish this is beyond me. The service is absolutely impeccable. The drinks are straight from an era long gone, with the most amazing sazerac I've ever had. The showmanship that goes into each interaction truly makes this establishment a place to sit and rest a while.

    I love everything about this speakeasy. Jefferson has a wonderful laid back vibe with great aesthetics and fun music. The drinks are amazing and there are plenty of options from classic cocktails to unique modern drinks. The bartenders are always friendly and pleasant to talk to. Great spot!

There are little details everywhere you look and it feels fun, warm and intentionally designed without trying too hard. It is such a great space for a gathering. The food was delicious. I tried the weekly deviled eggs, a selection of charcuterie and cheeses, and the whipped feta dip with fresh cut veggies. Everything was fresh, flavorful and perfect for grazing during a cocktail-style event. The winter cranberry spritz was basically all of my favorite flavors in one glass. So so good. Their cocktail and mocktail menu really shines and I cannot wait to go back and try more. As someone with food intolerances, I asked plenty of questions and everyone was friendly, patient and helpful with both menu guidance and cocktail suggestions. That always makes such a difference. There was even parking, which is a huge bonus. This is the perfect spot for a winter cocktail party or a fun night out. I will definitely be gathering my girls and heading back soon.

Once I ordered my soda I took in the ambiance of the bar, new lights, and the rest of the restaurant. It's not a large building but they make every inch count. Now, the reason you're reading this review- THE FOOD. I ordered the Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich with a Caesar Salad. The chicken (photo below) was perfectly cooked, topped with hot honey, slaw, pickles, and ranch then placed on a soft brioche bun. The meal was reasonably priced as well at $33 which included tip.

The fries were great, sandwiches were also really good! Would like to come back and get one of their main dishes as they all sounded pretty good. We got the bread pudding for dessert (sorry forgot the photo) but that was really good!! Would get again.

The restaurant has a tree house in front of the entrance which explain the name of the place. Inside is beautifully decorated with flowers, books, old books and decorations. It's a busy place so we made a reservation. We were taken to one of the table and were seated right away. They offer various different type of dishes including sandwich, seafood, mac and cheese, salad, pizza and more. We ended up getting few things to share with the group. We got tree house tavern salad, special Thai mussel, sweet potato pizza, lobster mac and cheese, and whipped feta and ricotta. Everything end up arriving all at once. Treehouse tavern salad was slightly sweet and refreshing with candied walnut, apple and vinegary dressing. Thai mussel was flavorful with hint of Thai curry and coconut flavor. The broth paired very well with baguette. Sweet potato pizza was cheesy and savory with hint of sweetness from the sweet potato. Lobster mac and cheese was cheesy and flavorful with lobster chunks. Whipped feta and ricotta was sweet and savory pairing well with the baguette. All the food was tasty and easy very unique for the most part. We also had their desert which they bring full samples of all their desert to show. We ended up sharing cheese cake because we were pretty full. Service was good but the place was but the server was but awkward as little details were missing from the service. Lack of trays for mussel shells, brought desert with candle as it was my birthday but was blown out because of the fan. The server turned off the fan but left it off so it was hot inside for a while. I think service could use a bit more attention. Overall the place was good and food was excellent. They offer unique dishes you don't often find in other restaurants. The ambience is also nice and it reminds me of old time tree house. I would go back again m.

Everyone I've brought here has enjoyed their drink - glassware is pretty and photogenic but I do feel the portions are on the smaller side. What a great, "vibey" little spot to take a date, a friend on a bar crawl or quick afternoon catch up, and so on! Lots of other great stops in this plaza too, you could make a whole day out of this area without ever having to move your car. I feel I've traveled somewhere far away and a little exotic when I come here - a class act that hasn't let me down yet.
