Las Vegas’s Downtown Cocktail Room Is Closing - Eater Vegas

"Downtown Cocktail Room, opened in January 2007 by Michael Cornthwaite, is a dimly lit bar known for its speakeasy-style atmosphere, classic cocktails, and signature drinks from a seasonal menu. It was a popular spot for locals, offering lounge-style seating and unique cocktails like the Killa Kiwi and Downtown Dill. The bar attracted a local clientele, especially during the Tony Hsieh era when the area saw significant investment and development. However, changes in the neighborhood and challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic have led to its closure, marking the end of an era for the glittery block." - Janna Karel
