The Armory Speakeasy at The Post

I recently had the chance to visit The Armory Speakeasy at The Post, and let me tell you, it was quite the experience! As soon as you step in, you’re greeted with a cozy, stylish atmosphere that feels like you’ve traveled back in time. The dim lighting and vintage decor really set the mood for a relaxed evening. The drink menu is impressive. I tried a couple of their signature cocktails, and each one was crafted to perfection. You can really tell that the bartenders put thought into their creations. They were balanced and flavorful, without overwhelming the palate. Plus, the staff was friendly and knowledgeable, eager to recommend their favorites. The vibe in the speakeasy is just fantastic. It’s perfect for enjoying a night out with friends or having a more intimate conversation. I loved how it felt exclusive yet inviting at the same time. Music played softly in the background, enhancing the whole experience without being too distracting. One of the highlights for me was the little touches throughout the evening, from the detailed menu descriptions to the overall ambiance. It all came together to create a memorable outing. If you’re looking for a place that’s unique and full of charm, The Armory Speakeasy is definitely worth a visit! I have 12 years restaurant experience including a year in Chicago running a restaurant and The Armory is by far better than any restaurant I've ever been too

5 stars all around. The drinks were great- highly recommend the key lime martini, black ops espresso and smoked old fashion. Cheese board was very good and the empanada was delicious. The negatives: 1) It is far from home so I can only go here when I am on vacation :( 2) Their drinks are SO good, that I am now spoiled!. I will be constantly comparing any drinks I have anywhere else to the drinks I had here, and they won't even come close! These are the best drinks I have ever had and likely will ever have. Highly recommend!

Great food, great service, and the most unique atmosphere in Key largo. If you're tired of the same Sysco truck keys food, do yourself a favor and try this place. The food is amazing, and you get an experience that is fun and nostalgic at the same time. With authentic veterans and military items decorating the walls, and the 1940's music. It creates an ambience that is different from anything else in the keys.

I have always wanted to come in here. We came in just for drinks for a birthday celebration and we were not disappointed. The Key Lime Martini is an absolute must, it mine as well be your dessert too. The espresso martini was smooth and the old fashion was smoked at the table.

This spot is a must visit while in Key Largo! We came for drinks after dinner, and they were the best cocktails we've ever had. The whole experience was unique and fun, with the food and drinks matching the theme. Our server was also excellent and so kind.

This is place is awesome! The theme the out of the world food. The friendly staff. The coctails so good! Every details that the place has is wow. The ambiance everything is great. Norbert was our server who took the time to explain each dish and the story behind the place. He catered to our needs. Went above and beyond!

Exceptional ambiance paired with genuinely attentive service. Every detail from the lighting to the music to the presentation of each dish was thoughtfully curated. A sophisticated lounge experience from start to finish.

One of our favorite spots in the keys! We loved the experience here! It doesn’t look like much from the front, you have to go to the back of the building and give them a password to get in. Once inside you truly feel like you’re in a bunker in WWII. The drinks are incredible, highly recommend the key lime martini and the espresso martini, as well as the love note. We didn’t order food but the cheese plate looked amazing. The bartender, David, was so friendly, and fun and makes some incredible drinks. We didn’t stay too late but he said they get some awesome late night entertainment - jazz singers and such. Definitely worth the stop!

Highly recommend this spot for anyone visiting the keys Vibes, food, drinks, service, impeccable Curated menu with limited but great selections, everything we ordered was delicious (ceviche was a favorite!), proving that quality over quantity always You had to enter with a "secret code" that's posted on their Instagram account which added to the quirkiness of the entire experience At 8:00/8:30pm, live jazz music starting playing and that's when the crowd really began to build up. People chatting, singing, dancing, such a great vibe going for a Saturday night

My friend took me to this cute spot as I was in town visiting her. She's a regular here. The entree way was cute. Like you're entering a bunker and have to talk into the walkie-talkie for them to open the door. Ambiance: cute spot i must say! They were pretty busy as it was a weekend night. They had live music. And the light was dimmed. So a very cute date night or gno spot. Service: was great. My friends ordered a lot of food that night as they are regulars there. Food: food was great! I liked every dish. And the drinks were aweso

I absolutely loved this speakeasy. The concept of it being a bunker was soo cool. Before you can go in, you have to give them the passcode through a walkie talkie. They then grant you entrance into the bunker. It's dim lighting inside, it makes it spooky but also fun and even romantic imo. Great spot to grab a few cocktails with friends or even go on a date. The menu was great, we shared the bunker bites which were steak sliders and let me tell you that chimichurri sauce really made the sliders stand out. We also shared the truffle fries that had Parmesan cheese and crispy bacon. You can really taste the truffle in them, they were not shy with it. The cocktails were all exquisite. My favorite was the key lime pie martini....it was perfectly balanced. It was not too sweet, the merengue was sweet but really tied the entire cocktail together. Their espresso martini was also quite delicious. Don't even get me started on their creme brûlée, it was so good. The service was awesome! Our water was being filled every so often and the staff was extremely attentive. Probably one of the best speakeasy's I've been to in a while. If you are in the keys, you have to drop into this crazy cool spot.

We had a blast here! I enjoy speakeasies. This one has you give them the password at the walkie-talkie before you are alloed to enter. The password can be found on their IG. The ambiance is Roaring 20s and the Prohibition era. The crowd was anywhere from ages 21 to 60. Everyone was having a great time here. Drinking and dancing and laughing. Speakeasies were often concealed behind unmarked doors, in basements, or disguised as other businesses to avoid detection by law enforcement. Alcohol was illegal during the Prohibition era 1920-1933. The Armory does a great job of recreating a speakeasy. We both ordered their house soecial, the Old Fashioneds to stay on trend. They were well made. We loved the bartender. He puts on a great show at the bar! You need to come here! I can't wait to go back. Parking is on the street and there is also a parking lot in the back. No stairs to climb.

They have turned the VFW into a really unique spot. You don't see it from the front facing US1. Park in the back and enter the "bunker" surrounded by sandbags. You wave to call on the walkie talkie and give the password (found daily on IG). They guide you inside. The inside is really low light. Menus are back lit. They are easy to read. The food offerings are tapas style: sliders, hummus, cheese plate, carpaccio. They have wines, beer and well drinks. The well drinks are made with a flair. I watched an old fashioned be smoked inside a glass called by a skull device and the smoke came out the eyes and nose. Service was superb at the bar. The bartenders chatted it up with us. Be prepared that this unique spot is not inexpensive.

I absolutely love speakeasies and this one just takes the cake. The drinks are amazing if you tell them what you like they definitely pinpoint something good. Service was very good. Prices are as you would expect in the keys. You have to go into their Instagram to find the keyword in order to get in very cute that they're very solid on that end. The inside is very dark and very 20s setting with how they dress how it looks. The menus glow which I think is a cute little touch and they do have sailor hats of different sorts that you can wear. Between my niece and my mom and myself we were really happy to have gone 100% recommend.

Was impressed by the decor...the ambiance hit all the right highlights of a speakes. The finger menu and the food was good. The drinks were good, too. The service was impeccable! Then why the 4 stars, you may be asking. Wished there were more seating areas to choose from.

I visited the Armory last week for the first time after my cousins were raving about it. It's a speakeasy located in Key Largo, where you need a password to enter. The idea behind it is super cool, but my experience there was not my favorite. We went on a busy night and had to wait about an hour to be let it, which is totally fine and to be expected on a holiday weekend. However, folks kept going in before us even though we had put our names on the list well before them. Folks waiting outside with us agreed the logistics of entering were a bit confusing. Once inside it was packed. We snagged a table and our server was nice and explained the concept to us well. Their kitchen is open until 10, so we ordered the two desserts on the menu - donuts and creme brulee. Both were just ok. I enjoyed my dirty martini and my cousins enjoyed their cocktails. What I didn't love about the experience was that it was incredibly loud - the music was so loud that it was hard to talk, which is not the vibe I expected for a cool speakeasy. I'll have to give it another try perhaps not on such a busy weekend as the menu looks interesting and the cocktails were solid.

Beautiful ambiance, attentive service, and a menu that actually delivers. The lounge vibe is relaxing without trying too hard, and every dish came out fresh and flavorful. Perfect spot to unwind, talk, and enjoy good music. Highly recommend.

Like this place a lot. The food is unique and good , the drinks are amazing and service too. The ambiance is super cool and the entrance to this speak easy was my favorite. Can't wait to go back.

This speakeasy is exactly what I look for. Hidden entry with password great drinks amazing service and good food. The ambiance was also perfect. Can't wait to go back.

Fun experience!! Quaint little bar with craft cocktails. Prompt service makes for a nice memorable experience

You need a passcode! It's on insta. The very best key like pie martini in the world. Like a meringue on top that is toasted? Yum! The music is very loud. Very loud! It's a dark nightclub. Couches and fancy chandeliers. Latin dancing. French fries were awesome. But we were never given napkins or silverware and we were forgotten after awhile. Waited a long time to get our check. The bartender finally came over and checked on us. Fun place! Just slow!

We needed our daughter's instagram to gain access (secret password). Check out the website -this was our first trip to a speak easy. Bartenders dressed in all black with red ties and suspenders. Nicely decorated for Halloween. It appears to keep the VFW large caliber shells and photos honoring veterans on wall bathroom had black toilet and sink went with overall vibe. Drinks were $18-22 range but the bartenders were skilled in craft (worked out shaking drinks). Funny Halloween drinks. One had vampire teeth -maybe Vampire Kiss.

Highly recommend!! For starters these workers were busy for hours straight and KEPT IT MOVING. 2nd the manager is ON TOP of this game and deserves a raise. 3rd great drinks, amazing atmosphere and tasteful food. My partner agrees that this place runs smoothly and everyone communicates well in order to keep the night flowing. We truly enjoyed this night (away from Orlando) HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! We will be back!

Im a 15 year vet in Florida F&B and simply put ...... YOU MUST EAT & DRINK HERE!!! They hit all the checkboxes including vibe music lighting price quality and consistency...Get HUBER in VIP lounge.

A great restaurant honoring veterans. A secret. Speakeasy where you have to check online for the password to enter. Once you give the password you are granted access. It is a small dark room with a nice size bar. Service was great and friendly. Humus and wings were amazing. Try the freedom fries.. so good!! The Speciality cocktails rocked. This restaurant is a must if in key largo!

Loved this place! I really liked having to say the password from the walkie talkie and then having a wonderful bartender, Samuel, and lovely server, Maddie. I had the black ops espresso martini, which had vanilla bean sticks in the liquor. It was such a lovely drink and the speakeasy overall amazing. They played great jazz music and the ambiance was perfect. I am over an hour away and cannot wait to go again!

We had an amazing experience at The Armory. Tbe place reminds me of an old but hip New York speak easy. Our bartender Chris was super professional and extremely cool. Everything he recommended frpm the menu was excellent. His misdemeanor is polite and cool at the same time. And his espresso martinis are the best I've ever had. You know, the foam on those espresso martinis that are so elusive, Chris' have it and the foam last and last forever. It was an absolute pleasure to have Chris help us. The armory is my new favorite place. Period!!!

This is unique experience, the Armory is a hidden gem. The atmosphere, food, drinks and service are the top notch. Their attention to every detailed is impeccable. The sever we had was amazing and very knowledgeable. I believe her name was Elisa. We cannot recemmend this place enough. A very unique experience, worth one's time. A great evening and excellent place.

The vibe is so fun and drinks are great! The service is prompt and friendly. Love it!

What a gem! Creative cocktails, great bar bites in a unique setting and amazing service. Definite highlights were the cheese board, fries, and the key lime martini. Looking forward to a return visit. Arrive early, it gets full quickly.

Wow! Just Wow! A Must attend! Very cool venu, atmosphere, and the server Berto was excellent. His knowledge & explanations of menu choices, suggestions & total service were above & beyond. We had the smoked Old Fashion which was fabulous! Our meal: one if a kind EVERYTHING! Elegently presented ( total eye candy) and the flavors...unbelievably delicious. Just GO THERE! WE'll be back, bring friends & recommend it to ALL of our friends. Oh...also there is a 15% $ discount for residents & Military . PS...must have the "password" to get in!​

Best drinks. Espresso martini, key lime pie martini, old fashioned and a amaretto disarono whiskey sour were the best we've ever had. The live music was on point and the service was top notch.

What a great place !! The memorabilia in this place is phenomenal, a little war history, and great decor set the stage for a fun time. Glowing menus with snappy military themed names and delicious food! I came here for a surprise anniversary date with my partner and we were not disappointed! All of our drinks were exceptional, made by our bartender David. David is amazing, if you can score a seat at the bar not only does he make an excepting but gives you some drink history. Our service was on point! We had Bunker bites and truffle fries. Both were delish!!! Neither dish was over dressed meaning not over the top seasoning all was just right! We will be back, make sure you know the password.

My husband and I were excited to check out this speakeasy, as the upper keys have limited nightlife options. We ordered two cocktails off the menu - both were fine. My husband's cocktail was a take on a rum runner and it tasted syrupy like something we would find at a hotel pool bar. For a higher end cocktail bar, I would expect fresh juices and more of an effort. We went off menu for our next two cocktails - old fashion and Manhattan. Two classic simple drinks. As soon as the waiter brought my Manhattan over, I knew it was made incorrectly. It looked and tasted like watered down whiskey with maybe a dash of sweet vermouth. The ambiance, theme and atmosphere is wonderful, but the service was very slow and the $17 cocktails were disappointing. At that price point, I would expect a three ingredient classic cocktail to be the least of their issues...

We had never been before so weren't sure on how to get in. I knew there was a code (and knew the code for that day) but we knocked and the "door man" opened the window for 2 seconds and closed it without saying anything. We knocked again and he rudely opens the door and says "we're full but I guess you can come in and stand if you want". We were greeted quickly by a young server who was so sweet and took our drink orders. We noticed a pretty big open space at the main bar so we started to walk that way and the "door man" comes up abruptly and tells us that "you can't sit at that table it's reserved" which we weren't planning on sitting at so I told him we were going to the bar. The whole time we were there (maybe an hour) nobody came in and sat at that table. Also on instagram it says no reservations so not sure who he was expecting but nonetheless he was very rude. Other than that the bar tenders and staff were great and drinks were good!

Bert was a great server. It was pretty quiet when we went in on this off-season Thursday but that was part of the plan. We tried 6 cocktails between the two of us, and even the off-menu drink was executed perfectly. The Empanadas and bunker bites were complex and tasty and the short ribs were a meal on their own. Enjoyed the Tiramisu and Zeppoles for dessert. Tip: save the Key Lime martini for dessert but do not miss it. They add a little crunchy sugar on the top for the firing and that seals the deal. Loved the ambiance and the lighted menus.

Incredible food, drinks, service and experience. Highly recommend and can't wait to be back!

Best new restaurant in Key Largo. The decor is beautiful. The best and first speak easy in Key Largo. We celebrated my mother's 80th birthday there and they made here feel amazing. The food is beyond delicious. The drinks are great and very reasonably priced! Elisa is the best waitress there! She goes out of her way explaining everything. This restaurant will be very successful!!

Key largo needed this now it's our go to spot for an amazing time Great drinks and music

Food needs finesse ... delicious ribeye croquettes... but the lamb was tough and the crème brûlée was not brûlée... missing the torch effect... however the cocktails were a hit!!

Great atmosphere and music! The line took a little long but worth the wait. The drinks and service were great.

What an amazing concept! The place is very popular and busy. You wait in line before being escorted into a night of entertainment, drinks and fun. We had dinner as we lounged on the sofa with other guests. Enjoyed the food and lived the cocktail. Worth the wait!

The service at this bar is the slowest I've ever experienced. Their drinks are made with low quality alcohol and they will charge you above premium prices. The place had a horrible smell that you could not get away from. Overall it's hard to say there was anything positive about this spot. They get you with pictures of their drinks on yelp but none of them looked like the ones they promoted. If you're looking for a classy speak easy then this place will disappoint you in every aspect. Go to a dive bar anywhere else up the road and I can promise you'll have a much better time. Save yourselves and listen to me. It's not like anything they promote online. Also the door man will make you wait to get into this disappointment. Many better ways to spend a night in the Keys.

We Walked in New Year's Day 2025. After my wife was studying there social pages we found out the passcode for todays entry . After she spoke in to the microphone and gave the correct code we were greeted at the door by the staff. As we walked in we were immediately taken back by the speak easy vibes yet surrounded by military mementos and images of local veterans . What really got me was the table that was roped off and awaiting the return of the missing comrades of missing or fallen soldiers . It really hit hard. Staff was pleasant to talk and share stories about their speak easy. Custom drinks and custom made food was simply amazing . The smoked old fashioned was just what I wanted and I wasn't disappointed. When you need a break from the everyday keys life scene of fried dolphin sandwiches and conch fritters come here and unwind. I promise no matter what ya got going on, this place will remind you there's always a place to have a drink cause someone has always and will always fight for your freedom. Live laugh and thank a veteran .

What a charming place this is. It reminds me of some places I frequented in the Washington, DC area. It is classy, fun, with a dash of spookiness (coming from a former CIA spook). The bartender was fantastic and fascinating - definitely a professional. I didn't get to eat here this time- but the carpaccio is on my mind; maybe next time. It's like a little bit of Washington, DC charm (they DO have nice restaurants and bars), relocated to the Florida Keys. Pretty cool.

my new fav bar!! came here on a whim after watching a tik-tok about it, & was not disappointed! loved the speakeasy vibe! all the servers were so awesome & make you feel right at home! ordered an espresso martini with tequila for the first time (recommended by our server) & it was soooooo good. 10/10 will be coming back more often!

Phenomenal!!!! Worth the wait in line!!! Great food. Jose is a sweetheart and Iza from Ibiza was great!!!! Great food. My filet mignon was delicious. The ambience is unique. Being locals we are so happy to see this place thrive. It was packed. The music was great. The drinks great!!!! Can't say enough about The Armory!!! Definitely going back again and again. Very happy and proud to see that they serve our wine UNO Malbec Antigal Winery. Congratulations!!!!!

The food is amazing! Service and ambience is top notch!! Highly recommend!! It's fun to have the code to gain access to the building.

Great ambience, drinks are very good. Staff is very friendly. A much needed place in Key Largo. Definitely coming back again

Great first visit! Food, attention to details, atmosphere were spot on. We are so excited to have this in Key Largo.

What an incredibly cool spot in Key Largo. The experience was outstanding. We enjoyed everything from the code word to get in, service, and incredibly comfortable seating. The smoked old fashioned was one of the best I ever had. We were also very surprised by the caliber of food. The sliders, short rib, and empanadas were excellent. We will definitely be regulars.

I went to this place last Saturday with two of my friends. We were granted access after giving the password. The door guy was very nice and eventually got us seats at the bar. The bartender Emily was very busy but had a GREAT attitude. She was quick with our drinks despite being slammed with orders from the servIce bar. I had the Smokey old fashioned and my friends both had expresso martinis, which were amazing. All three of us shared 2 orders of steak sliders, delicious! I would recommend this place this place to anyone visiting the keys.

The tunnel to get in is hot and they make you wait 20-45 minutes. They allow people to skip the line if they "know someone" inside.

Our server Elise was awesome!!! food was outrageous!!! drinks were extraordinary!!! We will definitely be back - so creative - love the vibe!!!

The food, ambiance, staff are terrific. The martinis are the best in the Keys! The short ribs are so delicious.. Such a special place to eat and drink, you have to experience it!!

atmosphere, food, drinks and service were all amazing! I will be visiting every time Im in the Keys!

Horrible Experience! Worse service and rude stafff they came out screaming and disrespecting us . Will never go there again food is terrible and over priced. Not worth going. Will never go again and make sure to tell every local the same thing.
