Drinks at 1930s Speakeasy: Backroom (Men Welcome)

http://photos4.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/a/0/f/600_431762575.jpeg

The Back Room is one of only two speakeasies in New York City that operated during Prohibition and is still in existence today. It is a timeless example of the underbelly of New York past. The original 1920’s speakeasy, known simply as “The Back of Ratner’s,” played host to many theater and movie actors of the “Roaring Twenties,” as well as famous gangsters of the era. These gangsters included Bugsy Siegel, Lucky Luciano and Meyer Lansky.

Visit The Back Room and use the same hidden entrance that was used 85 years ago. Enjoy a cocktail from a teacup—the way people used to secretly drink during prohibition! The vintage 1920’s décor, period pieces and secret room behind the bookcase, provide the perfect setting for a date, birthday party, film shoot, event, or a casual night with friends. I know that many of you ladies have male friends, boyfriends, husbands, brothers, etc that might want to join us for this experience. So, we are opening-up this meetup to everyone! Feel free to bring your men along :-)

We will also ask that you PLEASE BRING CASH just to expedite our bill settlement. It can take a long time for us to settle- up when dealing with credit cards, and sometimes the venue will only accept a certain number.

Hope to see you ladies there!!!

Love,
Sher
