Speakeasies in Bristol
The trend for hush-hush watering holes to transport you back to a time when drinking was illegal has hit Bristol. If you're looking to share a drink in a more sophisticated atmosphere, then search out one of the classy speakeasies in Bristol.
For true prohibition style, the most famous (and not so hush-hush) is Hyde & Co. While many many have heard about it, will you be one of the lucky ones to find it? Slightly easier to find may be Hyde & Co's 'flirty younger sister'; The Milk Thistle.
From the daring décor through to the charismatic cocktails, prohibition style continues throughout other bars in Bristol, including Secret Lantern in the city centre and Kinkajou or Her Majesty's Secret Service in Clifton, but be sure to try one the speakeasies for a truly unforgettable night under the radar.
The speakeasies in Bristol have secret entrances and payphones to call a waiter so part of the fun is to find how to get in in the first place.
