    A wonderful bartender, Kristine, and a great selection!
    TJ D.

    The knowledge of drinks, excitement to share information and service was masterfully done by Kristin. What a great small atmosphere to share stories and find out just how small this world is. From Swordfish Tom's to The Other Room and on to Anna's Place.

    Great vibe. Cool location. Don't tell your friends. Service was amazing and the drinks were spot on. Bring cash.

    Just happend to find this bar when looking forward a place to meet a friend in downtown Lincoln. One word.... Dope! The entire experience is something different. I couldn't even find the bar at first but after asking was directed to look for the "big door by the blue light". When you knock you are greeted through a metal peephole and asked how many are in your party. Getting out is equally interesting. You have to push a button which releases the super large door that is discussed to look like a bookshelf. Inside it's a tiny but beautifully designed space that can only accommodate 25 people. The drink menu is incredible unique and the drinks taste delicious. The whole vibe was really cool. Felt like I was somewhere exclusive. I will absolutely be back again to try more drinks. This spot is off the hook!

    Favorite speakeasy. Loved sitting at the bar and the overall vibe! Always talk about how we need to go back soon whenever we're in Lincoln!

    Some girlfriends and I hung out here after a recent Nebraska game. I loved the outdoor space- very…read morecharming, easy to find a table and even available benches. It was a gorgeous night so it was great being outside. The place was busy but we had no issues getting drinks in a timely manner. They also had a food vendor in the courtyard selling hot dogs and pretzels. I recommend stopping by!

    My sister, who was the only Black woman in the space at the time, accidentally bumped into another…read moreguest who was wearing a medical boot. She immediately apologized several times with genuine care and concern. Instead of accepting the apology or simply walking away, the woman responded harshly, telling my sister to "get out of my face." That interaction alone left my sister feeling deeply uncomfortable and targeted. Feeling shaken and outnumbered, she called me and our other sisters for support. When we arrived to understand what had happened, we were calm and simply trying to get the full story. That's when things took a turn for the worse. The woman's boyfriend looked right at one of the workers and said, "get these f***ers out of here." Moments later, an employee named William Wilson grabbed my arm so aggressively that he left a bruise. He physically pushed us out--me, my sisters, and even some of our friends and coworkers who had nothing to do with the incident. Eleven of us were thrown out without anyone asking for our side of the story. Meanwhile, the woman and her group, who were loud, aggressive, and clearly at the center of the confrontation, were allowed to stay. They continued drinking, playing games, and enjoying their night like nothing had happened. It's hard not to see the racial bias in how everything was handled. We were treated like a problem, not like people. We weren't heard, we weren't respected, and we were physically harmed and humiliated just for standing up for our sister and trying to understand what was going on.

We definitely had low expectations for a basement bar, but it was actually really great! Food was good (not high quality) and the drinks were quick.

We didn't know what to expect from an underground bar with $4 margaritas in a college town, but it was a fun place! They have darts, arcades, a huge jenga, and other games available to play. There's a big bar in the center and another small one by the arcade games. They have some good food and drink deals for happy hour and late night. Food was okay, nothing to come here for, but good if you need a nosh while you drink. They had a walking taco, which surprised me! The bar selection was surprising, they have good bourbon like Eagle Rare, Blanton's, and Weller and top shelf liquors of other kinds too. Bathrooms were okay, the toilet seat on one of the toilets was wobbly so that would be a bad situation if you've had too much to drink! It also smelled weird, but again it's a basement bar in a college town so I'll pick my battles.
