I can't believe we didn't know about this place! We live in Islamorada but heard about it on a trip to Aspen when we met a young lady at a local restaurant. We told her we lived in Islamorada and said we had to go to the Armory in Key Largo. It took us a while to get here but what a great place! The food is amazing. We had the shishito peppers for an appetizer and then the lamb chops. The bartenders are real pros. One spent a half hour squeezing limes and bottling the juice. I told him he could buy it by the jug but he said it's not the same. They buy bushels of lemons and limes and press them. That's over the top. Watching them constantly cleaning was refreshing. The place is spotless. We can't wait to go back. read more

Dope spot with a password that must be said to get in. Follow them on social media to get access as it changes daily. Br ready to be impressed with the sultry sexy atmosphere. The pink neon menu is easy on the eyes and helpful. Take a nice cushioned seat, sit at a table, or my favorite at the bar. Watch these professionals make your drinks as art. Don't skip on anything and be prepared for a wonderful evening. Try as many drinks as you can on the menu (without driving afterwards of course) because it's that captivating. Grab a good bite to eat like a burger or steak or whatever you desire. Take lots of pics of real armory, pics, uniforms etc. This place is a whole vibe read more

This place is completely unexpected in Key Largo. I love speakeasies and this one does not disappoint. You have to go on their social media to get the password and when you're approaching the address, it is indistinguishable from a basic warehouse or storefront. But when you drive around the back, where there is Apple parking, you'll be surprised to find a completely different view. As you go through the motions required to get in, we finally approach the entry door and enter a dimly lit beautifully, decorated open space with a bar and several comfortable couches and tables. They even have a small table on honoring soldiers that I've died in the line of duty. The servers welcome you as you come in and are very attentive throughout your entire visit. Everything on the menu sounded so good that we simply ordered several appetizers so we could try a bit of everything. Each one was better than the next. I realize that Key Largo is commonly known for oceanfront, dining and delicious seafood, but this little spot is well worth visiting read more

I can't tell you where this place is. I can't tell you how to get there. Not the secret code. Can't tell you how cool it is - it's a speakeasy ! Won't tell you how fantastic the cocktails are. True drinkology. I will tell you this is the best speakeasy i have been to.. its associated with the VFW - of which i am. So it has a very cool military vibe....VFW holds meetings there. Make it a mission to get here, obtain the password, get instructions to access a bunker that will keep you safe while you have a MaiTai. read more

Highly recommend this spot for anyone visiting the keys Vibes, food, drinks, service, impeccable Curated menu with limited but great selections, everything we ordered was delicious (ceviche was a favorite!), proving that quality over quantity always You had to enter with a "secret code" that's posted on their Instagram account which added to the quirkiness of the entire experience At 8:00/8:30pm, live jazz music starting playing and that's when the crowd really began to build up. People chatting, singing, dancing, such a great vibe going for a Saturday night read more

My friend took me to this cute spot as I was in town visiting her. She's a regular here. The entree way was cute. Like you're entering a bunker and have to talk into the walkie-talkie for them to open the door. Ambiance: cute spot i must say! They were pretty busy as it was a weekend night. They had live music. And the light was dimmed. So a very cute date night or gno spot. Service: was great. My friends ordered a lot of food that night as they are regulars there. Food: food was great! I liked every dish. And the drinks were aweso read more

The rudest door man we have ever encountered. Don't waste your time. He refused 12 of us and asked for 100$ a person. What an absolute joke.

Really enjoyed the drinks and ambience at this quaint bar. Servers were friendly and knowledgeable. Excellent service. read more

I came here while visiting the keys and it was such a fun change and vibe from the usual casual scene around key largo! I know key lime pie is everything down there so I was blow away by this key lime pie martini!! I could not stop drinking it. It was sooo good. The bar service was okay, nothing too good or bad about it. It was fun and different to need a password to get in. Would go again for more martinis!! read more

I absolutely loved this speakeasy. The concept of it being a bunker was soo cool. Before you can go in, you have to give them the passcode through a walkie talkie. They then grant you entrance into the bunker. It's dim lighting inside, it makes it spooky but also fun and even romantic imo. Great spot to grab a few cocktails with friends or even go on a date. The menu was great, we shared the bunker bites which were steak sliders and let me tell you that chimichurri sauce really made the sliders stand out. We also shared the truffle fries that had Parmesan cheese and crispy bacon. You can really taste the truffle in them, they were not shy with it. The cocktails were all exquisite. My favorite was the key lime pie martini....it was perfectly balanced. It was not too sweet, the merengue was sweet but really tied the entire cocktail together. Their espresso martini was also quite delicious. Don't even get me started on their creme brûlée, it was so good. The service was awesome! Our water was being filled every so often and the staff was extremely attentive. Probably one of the best speakeasy's I've been to in a while. If you are in the keys, you have to drop into this crazy cool spot. read more

We had a blast here! I enjoy speakeasies. This one has you give them the password at the walkie-talkie before you are alloed to enter. The password can be found on their IG. The ambiance is Roaring 20s and the Prohibition era. The crowd was anywhere from ages 21 to 60. Everyone was having a great time here. Drinking and dancing and laughing. Speakeasies were often concealed behind unmarked doors, in basements, or disguised as other businesses to avoid detection by law enforcement. Alcohol was illegal during the Prohibition era 1920-1933. The Armory does a great job of recreating a speakeasy. We both ordered their house soecial, the Old Fashioneds to stay on trend. They were well made. We loved the bartender. He puts on a great show at the bar! You need to come here! I can't wait to go back. Parking is on the street and there is also a parking lot in the back. No stairs to climb. read more

Man y'all - this spot!!!!! so nice. We did it way more than twice but no lie - we were in the Keys for a month in February & The Armory Speakeasy was new on the scene & we knew we had to try it out! Everything was divine When I say that, this is no exaggeration, I mean everything from the vibe, the service, the drinks, the food, the way that all of that clearly had everybody else in the place feeling even, it was just top to bottom a five star experience no lie! Everything that we tried here was wonderful. We especially love the truffle fries & obviously the charcuterie (don't think a normal charcuterie. This is like a Michelin restaurant, charcuterie, quality, wise and pairing wise no lie) and my husband really loved the lamb kebabs or lamb chops. Also of note, The Lost Love Letter cocktail, super delicious at baseline as far as cocktails go but made even more special by the fact that there is an actual handwritten note pinned to your drink that comes to your table with it for you to discover all on your own. In addition to the awesome vibe indoors and the amazing food, drinks & service, the outdoor sitting area is all phenomenal with so many authentic relics included in the decor. So many good freaking photo ops out there, and I love the dichotomy of the relics with the natural trees that are on the grounds, the start contrast makes you really appreciate the natural beauty located there on the grounds and of course it's all enhanced with twinkle lights, which are always my favorite . We have gone any night from a Wednesday to a Sunday and all were different vibes, degree of busy and all amazing. Definitely try for a night with the live music because that was super fun as well. Genuinely such an amazing place with phenomenal staff, service, food, drinks & ambiance 1 10 out of 10 can't recommend enough!!!!! read more

Awesome place. We sat at the bar and had the empanadas. They were unique and delicious! Cocktails were great. Pricey but worth it

They have turned the VFW into a really unique spot. You don't see it from the front facing US1. Park in the back and enter the "bunker" surrounded by sandbags. You wave to call on the walkie talkie and give the password (found daily on IG). They guide you inside. The inside is really low light. Menus are back lit. They are easy to read. The food offerings are tapas style: sliders, hummus, cheese plate, carpaccio. They have wines, beer and well drinks. The well drinks are made with a flair. I watched an old fashioned be smoked inside a glass called by a skull device and the smoke came out the eyes and nose. Service was superb at the bar. The bartenders chatted it up with us. Be prepared that this unique spot is not inexpensive. read more

Getting in was tricky, the communication system was at fault, not user error. The food was A++ and the staff even better. We enjoyed the various posted drinks as well as some we asked them to just create for us. Can't want to go back. read more

I absolutely love speakeasies and this one just takes the cake. The drinks are amazing if you tell them what you like they definitely pinpoint something good. Service was very good. Prices are as you would expect in the keys. You have to go into their Instagram to find the keyword in order to get in very cute that they're very solid on that end. The inside is very dark and very 20s setting with how they dress how it looks. The menus glow which I think is a cute little touch and they do have sailor hats of different sorts that you can wear. Between my niece and my mom and myself we were really happy to have gone 100% recommend. read more

I visited the Armory last week for the first time after my cousins were raving about it. It's a speakeasy located in Key Largo, where you need a password to enter. The idea behind it is super cool, but my experience there was not my favorite. We went on a busy night and had to wait about an hour to be let it, which is totally fine and to be expected on a holiday weekend. However, folks kept going in before us even though we had put our names on the list well before them. Folks waiting outside with us agreed the logistics of entering were a bit confusing. Once inside it was packed. We snagged a table and our server was nice and explained the concept to us well. Their kitchen is open until 10, so we ordered the two desserts on the menu - donuts and creme brulee. Both were just ok. I enjoyed my dirty martini and my cousins enjoyed their cocktails. What I didn't love about the experience was that it was incredibly loud - the music was so loud that it was hard to talk, which is not the vibe I expected for a cool speakeasy. I'll have to give it another try perhaps not on such a busy weekend as the menu looks interesting and the cocktails were solid. read more

Off putting to get on, your need a password which is posted in Instagram (pain in the ass) Inside, very modern, long bar, definitely not institutional keys type of location Many great cocktails, average $18 each. Friendly bar staff and clean. For 3 drinks and an appetizer plus tip $100 so way up there. Tried it once, wouldn't again. read more

You need a passcode! It's on insta. The very best key like pie martini in the world. Like a meringue on top that is toasted? Yum! The music is very loud. Very loud! It's a dark nightclub. Couches and fancy chandeliers. Latin dancing. French fries were awesome. But we were never given napkins or silverware and we were forgotten after awhile. Waited a long time to get our check. The bartender finally came over and checked on us. Fun place! Just slow! read more

A great restaurant honoring veterans. A secret. Speakeasy where you have to check online for the password to enter. Once you give the password you are granted access. It is a small dark room with a nice size bar. Service was great and friendly. Humus and wings were amazing. Try the freedom fries.. so good!! The Speciality cocktails rocked. This restaurant is a must if in key largo! read more

What a charming place this is. It reminds me of some places I frequented in the Washington, DC area. It is classy, fun, with a dash of spookiness (coming from a former CIA spook). The bartender was fantastic and fascinating - definitely a professional. I didn't get to eat here this time- but the carpaccio is on my mind; maybe next time. It's like a little bit of Washington, DC charm (they DO have nice restaurants and bars), relocated to the Florida Keys. Pretty cool. read more

Loved this place! I really liked having to say the password from the walkie talkie and then having a wonderful bartender, Samuel, and lovely server, Maddie. I had the black ops espresso martini, which had vanilla bean sticks in the liquor. It was such a lovely drink and the speakeasy overall amazing. They played great jazz music and the ambiance was perfect. I am over an hour away and cannot wait to go again! read more

We needed our daughter's instagram to gain access (secret password). Check out the website -this was our first trip to a speak easy. Bartenders dressed in all black with red ties and suspenders. Nicely decorated for Halloween. It appears to keep the VFW large caliber shells and photos honoring veterans on wall bathroom had black toilet and sink went with overall vibe. Drinks were $18-22 range but the bartenders were skilled in craft (worked out shaking drinks). Funny Halloween drinks. One had vampire teeth -maybe Vampire Kiss. read more

We had an amazing experience at The Armory. Tbe place reminds me of an old but hip New York speak easy. Our bartender Chris was super professional and extremely cool. Everything he recommended frpm the menu was excellent. His misdemeanor is polite and cool at the same time. And his espresso martinis are the best I've ever had. You know, the foam on those espresso martinis that are so elusive, Chris' have it and the foam last and last forever. It was an absolute pleasure to have Chris help us.

We Walked in New Year's Day 2025. After my wife was studying there social pages we found out the passcode for todays entry . After she spoke in to the microphone and gave the correct code we were greeted at the door by the staff. As we walked in we were immediately taken back by the speak easy vibes yet surrounded by military mementos and images of local veterans . What really got me was the table that was roped off and awaiting the return of the missing comrades of missing or fallen soldiers . It really hit hard. Staff was pleasant to talk and share stories about their speak easy. Custom drinks and custom made food was simply amazing . The smoked old fashioned was just what I wanted and I wasn't disappointed. When you need a break from the everyday keys life scene of fried dolphin sandwiches and conch fritters come here and unwind. I promise no matter what ya got going on, this place will remind you there's always a place to have a drink cause someone has always and will always fight for your freedom. Live laugh and thank a veteran . read more

What a great place !! The memorabilia in this place is phenomenal, a little war history, and great decor set the stage for a fun time. Glowing menus with snappy military themed names and delicious food! I came here for a surprise anniversary date with my partner and we were not disappointed! All of our drinks were exceptional, made by our bartender David. David is amazing, if you can score a seat at the bar not only does he make an excepting but gives you some drink history. Our service was on point! We had Bunker bites and truffle fries. Both were delish!!! Neither dish was over dressed meaning not over the top seasoning all was just right! We will be back, make sure you know the password. read more
