Come With Me to Dublin’s ONLY Underground Speakeasy

Posted on April 24, 2023 by Rebekah

When we visited Ireland last month, one of my top priorities was finding a speakeasy to share with all of you. While Ireland never went through Prohibition like the United States did, the speakeasy aesthetic is gaining popularity, especially in Dublin. I found one spot, in particular, though, that I knew I had to visit….

Visit the Hidden Speakeasy In the Bottleworks Hotel Lobby

Posted on February 27, 2023March 9, 2023 by Rebekah

Ever since its revitalization, the Bottleworks District is easily one of my favorite Indianapolis neighborhoods. I’ve taken you inside Bottleworks Hotel before, so I figured it was high time to introduce you to the speakeasy-style spot that’s hidden in plain sight just inside the lobby. When you enter the hotel, it’s easy to miss the…

Visit a Fountain Square Bar That Was a Speakeasy Before It Was Cool

Posted on February 16, 2023March 9, 2023 by Rebekah

On Instagram this week, someone told me I’m the “speakeasy girl,” and I can’t say that I mind the moniker. I love taking you inside Deco-inspired bars that transport you to last century, at least for a few hours. Tonight, we’re trekking to Indianapolis’s Fountain Square neighborhood to spend some time at The Brass Ring…

Step Inside Indy’s Only Password-Protected Speakeasy

Posted on January 30, 2023March 9, 2023 by Rebekah

In the 1920s and 1930s, Indianapolis played stomping grounds for a number of notorious gangsters — most famously John Dillinger — and the city is now home to numerous speakeasy-inspired establishments. If you’ve been around for any length of time, you know I’ve never met a Prohibition-Era spot I don’t love. However, one Indy speakeasy…

Explore the Steampunk Hideaway at Indy’s Most Elegant Hotel

Posted on December 5, 2022March 9, 2023 by Rebekah

When you enter the storied Omni Severin hotel in downtown Indianapolis, it’s all sumptuous furnishings, chandeliers, and granite tile floors. The Severin opened in 1913 as the Grand Hotel of Indianapolis, and its original appearance has been largely maintained. At first, the last thing you expect to be tucked down a side hallway is an…

Discover South Bend’s Hidden Gem (and It’s Close to Notre Dame)

Posted on November 28, 2022March 9, 2023 by Rebekah

When you marry a lifelong Notre Dame fan, it’s only a matter of time until you find yourself in South Bend. The city of just over 103,000 residents is largely defined by the University of Notre Dame…and its football team. Names like Joe Theismann, Ara Parseghian, Frank Leahy, Joe Montana, George Gipp, Lou Holtz, and…

Party Like It’s 1920 at John Dillinger’s Actual Speakeasy Hideout

Posted on November 21, 2022March 9, 2023 by Rebekah

To know me is to know I love the 1920s. I majored in English literature in college, with a specialty in F. Scott Fitzgerald, so you could say I (literally) majored in partying like Gatsby. A passion for all things Roaring Twenties inevitably leads to an interest in the great gangsters of the era, and…
