Secret speakeasy with vintage cocktails & Hollywood glamour
"Try to slip inside the Laundry Room, the secret speakeasy hidden within Commonwealth. Marked only by a lone clothespin near the entrance, this intimate 22-seat bar is a shrine to classic glamour and inventive cocktails. Inside, you’ll find premium whiskies, rare rums, and a menu of bespoke drinks unavailable in the main bar. The moody room is adorned with vintage photos of Hollywood icons like Marlene Dietrich and Rita Hayworth — and a ceiling lined with antique doors. The Laundry Room made its name with the creative, precise cocktails crafted by bartending legend Juyoung Kang during its early days. To score a seat, check Commonwealth’s website for a cryptic reservation clue — or look for the red light outside, signaling limited walk-in availability. Pro tip: Ask for a bowl of popcorn." - Janna Karel
"The chandelier-adorned downtown spot Commonwealth already oozes cool, but hidden inside is something even more stylish than the bar’s main room. The Laundry Room is the Commonwealth’s take on a speakeasy — one with artful cocktails unique to the hidden room. The tiny, elegant space can only be accessed by texting 702-701-1466 and requesting a reservation and directions." - Janna Karel
"The Doberman is a new venture from Ryan Doherty, the founder of Corner Bar Management. It's a private social room tailored for 'the sharp and curious,' opening in the Las Vegas Arts District. The venue resolves capacity issues experienced at the Laundry Room, offering members access even on sold-out nights. The 3,400-square-foot bar features heavy woods, new booths, semi-private seating, an atrium garden, and a lounge with live performances. It boasts a cocktail program with over 100 spirits and mixologist interactions akin to those in the Laundry Room. Membership is decided by a committee with various tiers, providing access to member-only nights and curated experiences. Members can always get a table without a reservation." - Janna Karel
"The Laundry Room is the bar equivalent of those Russian nesting dolls your aunt always brought back from her trips (that were never to Russia). It’s a reservation-by-text-only speakeasy located inside another bar called Commonwealth in the Fremont East District. Their menu consists of drinks that all have a minimum of five interesting ingredients, though the bartenders are more than happy to take on a challenge so try and come up with a request to stump them. This is the perfect spot to start the night with a few friends when you want to feel a little in-the-know." - milena difiore
"The Laundry Room’s lead barman, Anthony Partridge, created the Oaxacan Mole cocktail, an off-menu item made especially for the holiday. This drink is made with mezcal, bourbon, dark crème de cacao, Amaro, and a dash of habanero bitters." - Susan Stapleton
