An Unexpected Speakeasy Is Hiding Underground In This City In South Dakota
No matter how long you’ve been in South Dakota, every once in a while you stumble across a hidden gem. Here’s a speakeasy that you’d never know is hiding underground in Rapid City. Check this out!
To get in, you have to text the speakeasy to get a special passcode and the address.
You've heard of "craft cocktails?" That doesn't begin to explain the old-fashioned, labor intensive ways in which they'll prepare your drinks here. These exquisite creations are unlike anything you've ever tried.
Want that on the rocks? Please wait while the bartender chips ice off a block. This is the kind of attention to detail you're never going to find in a street-level bar.
One of the rules here? No cell phones. You have to actually talk to the people you're with. If you absolutely must make a call, you'll step inside the vintage phone booth.
Getting in is a top secret affair. The speakeasy doesn't have a website, but you can visit its Facebook page. It's open Saturday and Sunday from 5 PM to Midnight.
