Description
Housed in a 1909 building that once served as the Prohibition Enforcement Headquarters, the space is packed with historical curiosities. You will find an 1840s French fireplace, Hope Castle panelling, and 26 antique clocks all set to 1:50—the time of Oscar Wilde’s death. The design leans heavily into a whimsical Alice in Wonderland theme that covers nearly every inch of the room. While the decor and unique cocktails are the main draw, the room gets notably loud, making conversation a challenge, and menu prices run on the higher side with mixed reviews on the food.
