Our Story

"Louis Armstrong croons and candlelight flickers. The Speakcheasy is reopening in December 2018 as a prohibition-era cheese and charcuterie cocktail lounge.

Just in time for the holidays this Dunlop Street establishment will be mulling cider, smoking cocktails and pouring drams of scotch.

Farewell to traditional lunch and dinner. We’ll be serving European inspired charcuterie boards and pairing cheeses with sippable flights.
