14 Must-Try Speakeasies in D.C. | Eater DC

"In the heart of Adams Morgan, there’s a heavy steel door under a single red light bulb. Well, secret’s out: it’s Code Red, a speakeasy that leans hard into Prohibition themes through both its decor and its menu. Pictures and murals depicting Prohibition protests line the walls, red velvet booths set the tone, and a giant lit-up tree sits in the center of the space. The menu is split into three sections: pre-Prohibition, Prohibition, and post-Prohibition, so you can try cocktails from any era that feels right to you. Smell smoke? That’s the crystal service that, with the ring of a bell, adds a little flair to drinks. Plus, there’s a full menu for anything from apps to dessert and happy hour deals you don’t want to miss." - Abi Newhouse
