The Hardware Store

Cocktail bar · Anoka

"During Prohibition, the success of speakeasies was due in part to their creative disguises as everyday businesses. The Hardware Store revives that clandestine tradition in Anoka. Come for live jazz, blues, and guitar music and cocktails with modern twists. Note the specials: Old Fashioneds are $6 on Wednesdays, and Thursdays feature Old Fashioned flights." - Justine Jones, Alex Lodner
