Almosphere is laid back. Loved the cigar smell (just a faint smell, no actual smoking) but it added to the ambience. All the staff dressed the part. I got a very good Old Fashioned. One of the best I’ve had in a while. Loved it here.

A MUST visit in the Falls. The drinks’ presentation, alcohol selection, and bartenders skills are all top notch. Be prepared to have a wait since they don’t take reservations, so go check out one of the other amazing businesses downtown… trust me it’s worth the wait! Attached are photos of “Alchemist’s Secret Garden” and “Walk the Plank.” They did not have food available when we visited, so I wouldn’t plan the visit around a meal. They also have a great selection of mocktails!

Amazing atmosphere! I was there on a date and we had a great time. Very intimate. Interesting way to get in, definitely worth stopping by! 🙂 drinks are crafted and presentation is very cool. Not your typical cocktails at the bar around the corner. Attentive staff.

Located in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio is a fun Speakeasy. You enter through what appears to be a post office, and the fun begins. A mixologists approach to the cocktail is taken, and the drinks are well balanced. The various presentations of the cocktails are very dazzling. Small bites, such as charcuterie boards, are served. Definitely make reservations, especially going into the weekend, and check hours of operation. People are fun, and the service is good. It’s worth a look, enjoy and cheers!

There’s not really a food menu, this is a novel place for cocktails prepared by bar chemist types. Very entertaining to watch how they make the drinks with a wow factor. Not inexpensive. Good place for just one drink.

Delicious drinks! We were a little nervous after seeing some negative reviews, but after going ourselves we saw the truth!
#1 The drinks are delicious and crafted with care. That does take more time than a simple rum & coke or gin & tonic, so it naturally takes longer than a dive bar.
#2 The is an EXPERIENCE with very limited seated. You come here to get craft cocktails, and enjoy the atmosphere. So when other reviews said “they made me move my seat” we saw today the staff 1st asked patrons to sit at very specific bar-top seats, the patrons ignored the instructions (leaving an awkward one chair between other guests), and the staff had to kindly ask them to move down so other guests on the wait list don’t get split up.
#3 Some reviews said the service was slow, but I think that kinda comes with the atmosphere and type of bar this is. Have patience and kindness coming in, and enjoy the atmosphere.
We thoroughly enjoyed our drinks, the staff, and the atmosphere – highly recommend checking it out!

Cozy atmosphere. Not too loud. The cocktails were both delicious and beautiful. Aaron’s flare and technique were wonderful. We had more cocktails than food, but the board we had was wonderful. Their Old Fashion is exceptional.

We went the second night it was open and waited 45 minutes to get in. It’s a quaint speakeasy where you ring the Bell and the door will open. Once inside a cozy couch, bar seating and a couple tables are available. You order cocktails from a server, the cocktails are very good. My favorite was the pickle martini. They do offer a small assortment of food. Their are no bathrooms in the speakeasy, you must go next door to Butcher & Sprout. I also enjoyed how old movies were being played on the wall. The only thing I would change is the selection of music. The music was new age and maybe having music from the speakeasy era would’ve been more authentic. I’m looking forward to going back!
