This was a fun experience! We came here for a date night. The host was helpful and attentive. The drinks were pretty delicious. I would highly recommend coming here with some friends too. The pepino, the blueberry muffin, and the wayward island were all good.
GO HERE. This speakeasy was such a fun experience. Perdext for a date night, celebration, or just hanging out. The drinks were great, ordered a mix of gin, whiskey, and absinthe cocktails (all were fantastic). Live jazz trio made it even better. Friendly staff, and overall affordable. Thank you so much Exhibition room, I will be back!!!
The vibe at the Exhibition Room was great. There was even a couple dressed in retro clothing that really set the mood. They have a great list of vintage style cocktails as well as a great spirit list and great bartenders should you wanna go off book. They have lite eats but I would recommend eating before or after. Live music after 930 on the weekend.

2nd time here at the Exhibition Room and I have to say that it was as enjoyable as the first time I was here 3 years ago. Walk through Roxanne's bar straight towards the pool table and make a left at the phone booth. Pick up the phone, buzz it in, yell the person your password, BE PATIENT, then walk in when ready.
The atmosphere is excellent! They open up at 7pm. We had a reservation for 715pm for 6 then for 5 @730pm and all went without a hitch. There was enough room for everyone at our table at this time. About 930 it starts to get very lively! The music starts flowing, live tuba and piano begin playing and the place starts to get a little crowded and loud.
The drinks here are on the pricier side as to be expected, but fantastic! Mixologist know their stuff for sure! Any type of alcohol I threw at them they knew what t make or made it in the fly. From mezcal to your everyday martini they got your drink covered. The wait for drinks start to get long about 930ish because there was only two mixologist working and trying to tend to many, many people at a time SO IF YOU BE PATIENT, WAIT YOUR TURN AND THEY'LL SERVE YOU WITHOUT ANY ISSUES. If you're going to be impatient while in in here, THEN THIS IS NOT THE PLACE FOR YOU!
So, come here, ENJOY THE ATMOSPHERE, BE PATIENT AND UNDERSTANDING, get your drink on and hang out.
CHEERS!
Ugh.... I hate to give the Exhibition Room such a hight rating simply because I want to keep it to myself. This place is AWESOME. The drinks are delicious! The Salty Kisses drinks is the ONLY cream drink I've ever had that I had to order two of. The ambiance is great, although I prefer going not on a Friday nor on a Saturday night, simply because more people show up. But back to the drinks, all the drinks I've had have been great. This place is totally worth the miniscule extra effort to get in and totally worth checking out.

This is an interesting little hole in the wall (literally). It's a very fun tribute to the Era of speakeasy life, and the cocktails here are pretty tasty. In the room, they only serve craft cocktails, and they don't have a well to make other mixed drinks. There were about 9 drinks on their menu list the night I went, but there are a couple unlisted drinks they offered when we asked.
If you're like me, and aren't used to craft cocktails, the exhibition room is a fun place to start. I'd suggest coming here with a friend or two because of the more intimate setting. A lone person might find that most people here are in small groups, and that chances are they would keep to themselves, which can make it a little challenging to mingle with strangers (unless you're good with that sort of thing)
A jazz band made an appearance, and I really appreciated that they not only could play well, but they weren't aiming to be heard from 3 buildings away. Their music was enjoyable and we could still have a conversation.
You cannot beat the atmosphere. The bar tenders are well versed in multiple different drinks and can make you any type of drink you request. There is limited finger foods available, so eat before hand. You do have to make reservations ahead of time, but it is a cool experience. Would definitely recommend to try out at least one.
