The Mirror

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had the pleasure of visiting The Mirror, a speakeasy in downtown DC, while in town for a conference with my colleague. We decided to drop by last minute right before closing, and it turned out to be an unforgettable experience. The ambiance was incredible, offering a perfect blend of elegance and mystery. The highlight of our visit was the bartender, who was truly amazing. Despite the late hour, they welcomed us with exceptional service and crafted some of the best cocktails we’ve ever had. The Mirror is a hidden gem that I highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique and delightful night out. If you’re in DC, make sure to check it out – you won’t be disappointed!

The vibe has always been private but welcoming. Music selection, therapeutic. I heard an MF Doom joint that I haven’t heard in years. Oh and the bartenders make some tasty trippy sauce.

Edit: upvote for Christian helping some dudes at the end of the bar figuring out what drink to order. Let's cut through the chase. The "remember the maine" may be the single greatest drink I've ever had. If a Manhatten had an illigitamate child with a sazerac this would be it. You don't want to admit it exists. But it does. The other drinks are great, but if you enjoy either a sazerac or manhatten, or if you like rye, or alcohol, or have a soul...drink this drink. Have Christian make it. Love your life. Also? The music has been lights effing out.

They don’t have food really. But the vibes are unmatched. Very low key and quiet on nights like Sunday-Wednesday. Ive been on a Friday and on a Sunday, both totally different vibes. Nonetheless, the drinks are great and anticipating returning!

This was in walking distance from our stay at the Marriott. We enjoyed the walk just as much as we enjoyed The Mirror! Loved the ambiance. Definitely a mood. If ever in the area, this would def be on the agenda.

Hidden little speakeasy. It's downstairs and presents as pretty abandoned. They are serious about their no flashlight policy and it's pretty dark inside. But it's still cool. The cocktails were on point, the beer was as expected and the service was friendly. Happy hour was $3 off ending at 7pm. There is no food, besides a bag of chips.

Highly disappointed. The atmosphere is off-putting the music doesn’t match what is stated on the website, it’s not 80’s/90’s and it’s so loud you have to yell to hear any type of conversation is this supposed to be a club or a bar? The bar tender took a while to acknowledge we were even sitting at the bar but we decided not to get any drinks because it was unsanitary. None of the bartenders washed their hands after playing with their phones and quickly grabbed the clean glasses and had their hands all over the rim of the glass and then drying some of the wet glasses with a dirty towel hanging out of their pocket. My husband and I decided to leave. It was our first time trying a speakeasy and it definitely ruined our experience. Won’t be back. 😐

Small place downstairs. It looks super weird to have a mirror be a door so that made it pretty easy to find. Drinks were ok. Super dark, speakeasy type feel. It borders on being a dive but the good music, friendly bartenders, and nice-ish decor nake up for it. Great place to have a quick drink.

Wow wow wow do I love the speakeasy Drinks tried Boulevardier excellent but a little bitter for my taste Aviation excellent. This could be my perfect drink actually I love this speakeasy I love the vibe I love the ambiance I love that they have couches. I love the music they play. I also like that they have dim lighting believe it or not. They are a little bit fussy about whether you use flash photography from your phone and I don't mind that at all. It's really the perfect ambience for what I expect a speakeasy to be. Come here late at night so you don't have to wait and you don't have to deal with parking. Highly recommend.

I was excited to check out The Mirror with a friend this week. The last time I went to a DC speakeasy bar was a million years ago, 18th Street Lounge back when it was still in DuPont Circle, so I was excited to see what the current scene is like. It's a cozy space, and as one would expect with a bar that styles itself as a speakeasy, somewhat hidden - but not SO hidden that it makes any sense that it took my friend 10 minutes of walking around the vicinity before he found it (shouldn't a GenXer get this sort of thing better than a millennial, even an elder millennial like me?) Anyway, when you get inside expect to be immediately carded in a very dimly lit entryway by the friendly bouncer (not used to seeing a bouncer smiling so much, it must have been obvious it was my first time there haha!) Even at 5:30 it was already pretty busy, so my friend and I got seats at the bar, but if you get in early enough you can snag one of the comfy-looking couches towards the back. We both got the Aviation, and we both really liked it. It's one of the sweeter gin cocktails I've had, but it still worked nicely and it was a pretty drink too. The bartender was courteous but not pushy or pretentious. My one real complaint would be the music, which was mostly hip hop/R&B, and while not too loud, its not really my vibe anymore. I could see it working for a younger crowd but age-wise the clientele ran the gamut on a Thursday evening. I'd check The Mirror out again if I'm in the area with a friend, but probably not something I'd go out of my way for. I have more speakeasy searching to do!

The set up to this bar is excellent. You have to go down two flights of nondescript stairs, into a foyer that looks like a boarded up entrance to an old store of some sort. It's a dirty white wall with only a "for rent" sign and a giant mirror. The mirror is the door to a small, very dark speakeasy. The bouncer admonishes you at the door to not use your phone too much and to definitely not use your flashlight or the flash. The bar is just as dark as you'd expect from a speakeasy or a dive bar - and this place is kind of both. It has the secretive underground feel of a speakeasy, with very fancy cocktails, but it's also decorated a lot like a dive bar - black walls, a fraternity couch, and a wall full of mini Lays chips behind the bar. The cocktail I tried involved mezcal, tequila, lemon, and almond syrup in a champagne cup and it was delicious. The also had a very good raspberry sour beer. All in all, a fun place to pop in for a pre dinner drink.

This place seemed scary sketchy because it was a basement unit and just a mirror on the wall!!! But behind the mirror is a really cool vibe speakeasy with delicious drinks. The service was fast but not a charismatic bartender. Loved the dark and mysterious and elegant vibe. It's expensive though!!!!!!!

Ambiance was very grungy-- good for a casual date. Service was great. The cocktails were super strong though-- good if you want to get drunk but definitely not my favorite style of cocktails.

solid cocktail bar, well made drinks. Pretty much only classic cocktails. very dark. old school hip hop. happy hour until 730 (not sure if this is weekday only), but cocktails were $3 off. No food except for lays so dont come hungry

Even though I new where I was going, the "For Rent" sign fooled me and had me thinking this place had closed. Anyway, this is a speakeasy bar located in the heart of downtown DC. There is metered street parking and commercial garages available within a reasonable walking distance. You have to walk down some stairs to get to the door, but they do have an elevator available as well. The large mirror next to the "For Rent" sign is actually a door. Once you walk in you will enter a dimly lit bar with limited bar seating and tables. You will also find some lounge type seating near the back. You can take all the pictures that you want in here, but they do not allow flash photography. There are lights under the bar if you need to see anything like read the menu. They had hip-hop music playing while I was there and seating was at a premium. I was able to snag a seat at the end of the bar. The staff here was nice enough. The speakeasy has a full bar and a list of select signature cocktails. I got a few of the libations (a Hotel Nacional and a Paloma) and was not overly enthused about them. They were ok. They were just not my type of drinks, I guess The bar has a happy hour, 5PM to 7:30PM, so try to make it during that time to save you a few bucks. I guess I overhyped this place in my head and was expecting more after about 30 minutes, I got bored and left. Don't get me wrong, this was a nice place to visit and I recommend it. I just hope that the nostalgia lasts a bit longer for you than it did for me.

We enjoyed The Mirror. I had vaguely heard of it, so when my friend suggested it, I was down. Quite literally, as it is down a flight of stairs, in what I think used to be Lima or maybe Tattoo Bar (I'm aging myself). It's a welcoming, unpretentious speakeasy that focuses on classic cocktails. It's got a dope hip-hop playlist with dim lighting and comfortable seating. Staff was friendly. We loved our cocktails. I went with some lighter options, the Paloma and Hotel Nacional, and both were great. I'm super looking forward to returning.

It was an amazing experience. Definitely looking forward to returning again! The environment was super cozy and the music was on point. The perfect setting to chill and have a great cocktail. The bartenders were personable and knew how to make drinks.

It's not a speakeasy, it's a decent bar with a cool entrance. Compared to a normal bar at the price point the service is slow, the drinks are eh, but the atmosphere is solid. If you want your date to feel like she's going to a cool basement bar it's totally solid, but don't compare the drinks to a true speakeasy.

Hidden bar exceeded our expectation! Music was perfect. Drinks were creative and tasty! Can't wait to go back!

I do love a good hidden door speakeasy. This has a good hidden door. The vibe is good, and clearly was supporting a few first dates (good choice, gentlemen). The bartenders are pretty quick thanks to the limited menu and bottle selection. The cocktails are more hit or miss. They are almost purely classic recipes, but the balance can be off. My scofflaw was far too much lemon and obscured the whiskey. My sazerac was better, but honestly just OK. Literally the only reason I stayed for a second drink was to give them the chance in case I ordered poorly on the first. I like the concept, but I'm not coming back.

Looking for a speakeasy? Look no further. The Mirror is relatively easy to find and is the perfect loungey spot to grab an excellent cocktail (or Lays chips for $1) and catch up with friends.

Came by on a Friday night for the first time and I absolutely loved it here. The music was great and so were our drinks. Perfect for a small gathering or a date night. I wish they sold more than Lays chips for food!

I'm a speakeasy kinda guy so its only right that I found this spot on my research before I showed up in the nation's capital. We slid through on a Thursday evening to grab a couple of drinks. First thing we saw was the big mirror as you come in through the darkness as you come downstairs lol. We grabbed the 2 available seats at the end of the bar as that was all that was left. There are other seating options with couches, but they were all taken...the bar was fine though. I started out with the old fashioned which was fantastic. My homie said the Lions Tail was amazing as well. I ended our stay here with a Sazerac which was pretty good as well. The place is dimly lit as it should be as its a speakeasy joint. I coulda stayed here all night, but we agreed to move around to other places after a drink or 2. You can come here on a date, bring groups of friends or even roll solo. I fux with it!

I had an amazing experience at The Mirror! My friend told me about this speakeasy and was very excited to check it out. It was very hidden, but the door you use to enter the place is a full sized mirror - which I thought was so creative!! It is very dark when you are inside and you are not allowed to take any flash photographs, but the vibes inside are amazing. The bartenders were very nice and helped me pick out a drink I would enjoy - and it did not disappoint! I got the aviation - which had lemon, gin, maraschino, and violette. If you like citrus drinks, this is perfect for you! My friend got the kir royale - cassis & sparkling wine & she said she loved that one. The place definitely gets busier as the night goes along, so I recommend going here early if you can, but it is a must try! They do have HH M-F from 5-7pm which does get you $3 off cocktails, $2 off beer & wine and an $11 beer + shot combo. Hope you check it out!!

Really cool speakeasy that is more hole in the wall compared to Allegory. If you like a more down to earth vibe for a speakeasy, this is your spot. The drinks and service were great.

The drinks were very good, but not a place to go with people (which kind of defeats the purpose). The music was very loud, and I think that, paired with the really dark lighting, it was very hard to converse with the friend I was with. I appreciate the dim lighting, but the music in my opinion could have been lowered a bit.

Walk on through the instagram-able mirror entrance and you step into a local favorite. My fiance and I always get a good cocktail at a great price and we are happy to frequent this bar. Don't be shy the bar is tight and the pass through to the back room with seats is a squeeze. But that's why we love it here.

Nothing special. Cocktail was fine, but not worth $20. Limited seating. Kind of annoying to find, but that may be part of the appeal. Wished I'd gone somewhere else, but I can see the appeal for others.

Great hidden cocktail bar! Highly recommend this place if you're looking for a quality cocktail. The bartenders here are great and able to make amazing cocktails that are not just on the menu. The space itself gives off speakeasy vibes (as expected) with low lights, leather couches, fancy chandeliers. The one thing we weren't a fan of was the music. More club like than quiet cocktail. You should definitely get here early because by 6pm, every seat was taken and a lot of people are standing making it difficult to get to the bar or at times feel like you're being crowded by people standing right next to where you are sitting. Typically I think of a speakeasy as a place that fits only the seats available, not full occupancy. So be prepared for it to get busy.

Great!!!!!!!!!!! Nice place! Great atmosphere and nice ambiance! Would definitely go back

We saw the novelty of the mirror at the front door of this bar and we wanted to check it out. To get here you walk down the stairs to arrive at the entrance. Once you walk in you won't be able to see much because it's very dimly lit. There are some longer tables at the front, bar seating in the middle, and some lounge seating and couches in the back. All of their drinks are $16 and mostly consist of the classic cocktails. I ordered the old fashioned which was fine but I was hoping for more creativity in their drinks especially given the price of them. Their website brands themselves as a speakeasy but walking in it didn't really give off that vibe. When I think of a speakeasy I imagine a relaxed intimate environment with lower-volumed peaceful music, and this place didn't have that. The music was mostly rap and hip hop and it was loud as well. We could hear the music blasting even from outside when we were taking pictures of the mirror and it only got louder once we walked in. When we sat down at a table we basically had to yell to talk to each other and it was still hard to hear over the loud music with our ears pounding. It felt less like a speakeasy and more like a club. We weren't feeling the vibe of this place and we left soon after.

The dedication to making this an actual speakeasy is worth it. Unless you see somebody coming out of the wall, you'll likely think you're in the wrong place as many other reviews have noted. It's perfectly dark inside and the cocktail program is impressive. It's the kind of place where you don't want to speak too loud or put your bright phone on because that just doesn't match the energy. It's a great spot for a date, as you can talk and not worry about who's around you - there's also lots of seating options to sit and chill. That said, be careful about the weekend nights, because this place can get packed, and if so service doesn't get you as fast as you would like. If there is a classic cocktail that you want, chances are that they can make it, and don't worry that they don't have your favorite brand - it will be good. Definitely worth a visit, just make sure that you're in the right place and mindset!

Love the low key decor. The bartender definitely knew what he was doing because those drinks was hitting!!! My boyfriend was beyond surprised walking to this "abandoned" location. He asked "babe I don't think the lounge is here anymore because of the lock box on the door and for rent sign Lmaoo. I opened the mirror and the shock on his face was priceless. The security guard was super cool and the vibe on a Saturday night was dope. You will definitely enjoy yourself.

"Yeah, just walk down the dark staircase and into the unknown hallway then through the mirror." Uh, okay? Beautiful speakeasy that's great for when you don't want to be in the house, but you also don't feel like full on clubbing. Literally saw all types of people in there. A lot of sitting options with a great playlist and great drinks. Loved the Paloma.

This is a fun small speakeasy for a drink. I don't know that I would have found it had my friend not known about it. It's very dimly lit, and it's prohibited to use camera flashlights, which makes it hard to read the menu. The place is pretty small, but we were able to get a space on a couch. The cocktails aren't too creative, so I got a cider, which was good. The bathroom is clean as well. No cover to get in.

Had an awesome time at the Mirror! In terms of speakeasies its definitely one you have to know about to know it's there. Its located in what looks like an abandoned building under a creepy set of stairs behind a mirror, finding it is a fun experience. We sat at the bar and quickly decided what we wanted. We didnt even have to order! The bartender, Brady, was listening in and already had the drinks we wanted made for us. Brady was so fun and such a great bartender, we had a lot of fun chatting with him throughout the night. Overall really enjoyed the drinks, they have some classic cocktails and a few original ones. I had the Nacional and the Jack Rose. I ended up trading the Jack Rose for my friends cocktail who had a really delicious bourbon drink with grapefruit and honey. I'm not even a huge bourbon drinker but really loved that drink. Both drinks were super boozy. We were treated to house made lemoncello shots which were DELICIOUS. I really loved it here and will definitely come back. The service is great, the ambience is great, they play awesome music, its not too loud and at least on a weeknight its not too crowded. They do $3 off cocktails during happy hour which goes until 7:30 which is unheard of these days. Overall a great place!

The Mirror proves that Washington, D.C. is more than suits. Located three blocks from the White House, The Mirror is a true speakeasy in downtown D.C. When you arrive, walk down a sterile staircase and open the door to a hallway with a single mirror. Push the mirror and enter a whole new world. Here's why you should go: 1) Vibe: Dimly-lit and spacious, The Mirror is one of the truest speakeasies in Washington, D.C. There's bar seating and more comfy seating throughout the space. 2) Drinks: Their cocktail list is strong and they make them quality. It's also more inexpensive compared to other bars in the city, especially downtown. When I went pre-pandemic, they had Snackables on the menu for light bites, solidifying this place as the best!

Finally got a chance to check out The Mirror and just like most of DC's "secret" bars and "hidden gems", it's conspicuous and for the masses. Lol. Visited on a Friday evening around 8p and the crowd was manageable. The doorman/security tells you not to use flash on your phone, but it is extremely dark inside. My group of three was able to get to the bar immediately and order drinks...lit by votive candles. Drinks are very tasty and strong. The bartenders are able to make drinks off the menu. Around 9:30, it became crowded and we went elsewhere. Very pleasant experience. Nothing special, but I will go back to see how much better I may like it on a weeknight.

The only reason I didn't give it 5 starts is because I really wish they served just the simplest bit of food there. It's only a bar atmosphere with snacks available. Also the lightening inside is very dark and dim which I can appreciate this is why my pictures are so dark tho, you can't flush a light inside either. Which all makes sense. This place is fantastic! If your new to D.C. or just have never been you need to add this love to your bucket list. It's nestled in to the point you honestly can't tell it's there. I love the fact you have to walk through "The Mirror " to enter inside. Look carefully because you just might miss it. Ohh I had almost all the drinks there and they are all A1

Very good standard drinks here! Dim-lit but a great speakeasy vibe. Very intimate and good for a date!

Not to be confused with Mirror lounge on U Street! To give you an idea, this place is located near Park on 14th! I knew this place as Lima back in the day (yes I'm old old). It's a lot smaller than I expected but don't let that deter you. It's still a nice place! Ladies, the steps to get in are steep. Leave the stilettos at home if coming here!! This cocktail bar/speakeasy is a whole vibe! The drinks were on point. I stuck to my go to cocktail, an old fashioned! It was really good and the prices, fair! It's cute for a girl's night out which is what I did last Saturday night or even a date night! It is very dark in here and they tell you, "no flash photography." There's no food here but there are tons of nearby options!

Great vibe and drinks! I went on a Tuesday night while visiting DC and there was a nice crowd in there. The music was a mixture of genres and the atmosphere was very laid back.

Very small but great drinks for a cocktail hr or after work relaxation. Kinda dim but that gives to the whole speakeasy vibe.

For a laid back urban "speakeasy" it was definitely A-ok! Mirror is a speakeasy in terms of the types of cocktails offered and you enter through a mirror hidden at the bottom of a stairwell. There wasn't any bothering with locating a password which is nice which is one way this is more laid-back a speakeasy. It is also laid-back bc it is super casual. No need to dress up to come here. The other reason it is laid back is you get a single pretty chandelier other than that the basement bar looks like it is still under construction but maybe the unfinished look is intentional. While you get the mood lighting you don't get the mood music. The music here was more what you'd here at a raunchy rap bar not a speakeasy. While the cocktail menu features your traditional speakeasy cocktails like the aviation, old fashioned, corpse reviver, etc -they were not strong like these types of bars usually have. Now these drinks aren't weak like college bar weak, they just weren't super boozy like speakeasy cocktails usually are. My fiance and I have been to dozens of speakeasies around the country and this one had the least impressive drinks of all of them. Definitely check it out if you're in DC but just keep your expectations in check in comparison to other soeakeasies.

My girlfriend found this bar after searching on google for a place to grab a drink, we're just visiting. It's not very hard to find. When you search for the bar follow the map and look for the black awning, it's down the stairs. To my understanding there are 2 different bartenders named Chris, so Chris (with the beard and long hair) was bartending. He was very friendly, gave us some recommendations for museums, he even recommended a cool bar to check out in Philly (where we're from). He makes mean drinks as well. We're not big drinkers, I don't usually drink cocktails and mixed drinks, but I could sit there enjoying those drinks as long as Chris is making them (the corpse reviver #2 or the last word were my favorites). Chris and the rest of the staff were also very attentive. We enjoyed talking to Chris while watching him make all sorts of drinks. The music was a good variety of hip hop and rap, when A Tribe Called Quest or Group Home is on you know you're in for a good time. The vibe of the bar is quaint and classy. We were here on a Saturday night, it was mostly a middle aged crowd and there is plenty of room. Very unique experience and one of the greatest times I've had at a bar. This will be our go-to bar whenever we visit DC in the future, we hope to see Chris again!

Four of us went here on a Saturday night and were able to get in around 11 PM without a reservation. The cocktails are on point, and about as costly as one would expect ($15-$20 range). There are maybe 15 seats at the bar and two small lounge areas. The service is prompt. The mirror is the door. Considering the naturally dark mood-setting ambience, the no flashlight rule is ridiculous. Kudos to the bartenders for even being able to read the bottle labels let alone prepare the drinks.

I love a good speakeasy as much as a panda loves bamboo. The concept of this place is cool and while compared to other speakeasies I love in say NYC, it does not hold a candle - it's nice to see more spaces like this pepper DC. It has the charm of getting to a speakeasy - unassuming place and a nice pop of delight once you discover the entrance. Getting in was a bit chaotic for absolutely no reason but the bouncer was self-aware enough to personally seek me out to apologize on the way out (he really did not have to). While I don't think this place has the bones of what makes a truly great speakeasy - inventive drinks and experienced mixologists, I do think it's a fun vibe and space. Def worth checking out if you are in the area.

"Wait... is this it?... where is it?!" A very cool speakeasy in the City, the Mirror is a great place to chill. The vibe is relaxed; the music is fire; the place is dark. We came here for drinks on a Sunday evening and at first sight, we couldn't find the bar. The mystery was alluring and once we entered, it felt like we were transported away from the busy City. The lounge is small with 3 couches and stools that lined the bar. I normally gravitate towards the Moscow Mule and ordered that, but there are many cocktail choices. There is no food in the menu except for a snack size bag of classic Lay's for a dollar. We thoroughly enjoyed the music and the atmosphere and can't wait to come back.

This place sounds cool, looks cool online and then is a disappointment... they were so strict. I could not sit in the same chair with my FRIEND.... And then, I took a pic w flash on and they come up to me and report me for using flash. It's a bar, not the royal palace...: not sure why I could not take a pic without being reprimanded.... I don't recommend. Vibe was ok but nothing special... and if your coming w a date they will most likely hate in u for touching in any way... so next

Terrible service with a bartender who was trying way to hard to be cool by obnoxiously flipping shakers and pouring liquor like he was Tom Cruise but not as good since he was splashing booze all over me as I sat waiting for my drink. Bartender then made me the completely wrong drink and seemed annoyed when I advised him of the mistake. Did nothing to rectify but gave the incorrect drink... for free... to his friend sitting at the bar right next to me. Then proceeded to do everything but make me my correct drink for the next 10 minutes. Joking with everyone and trying to bring up random facts to show how smart he was. Finally served me my drink which was $16 and half full and not made correctly. Not so much as an apology or discount for the inconvenience. This overpriced and overhyped place is trying way to hard to be cool and has forgotten that customer experience is more important. I would never go back

Good vibes. Good drinks. The party I'm with describes it as a "good sneaky link spot." Lol. I thought it was a speak easy. But I see what kind of time they're on. I'd def come back here tho. Look for the mirror lol.

if I could give 0 stars I would First of all... being So Dark you cannot read the menus or see anyone's face does not equal a "speak east". (Go to allegory if you want a true speak east atmospher) The service is there is no other way to say it... you know the type, they don't want to be there, they are annoyed by your order and don't have time for You... Yeah that is The "Service" you will get here Lame AF ! There is no where to sit It smellls of mold Oh and did I say.... YOU CANNOT SEE ANYTHING NOT EVEN THE MENUE.,. not even your date. the music is too loud, good luck having a conversatio. They have a VERY LIMITED cocktail order Over priced NOT CASH FRIENDLY DONT COME HERE IF YOU EANT A GOOD TIME

I was roaming the empty streets of DC on Thanksgiving evening and The Mirror was among the very few bars open, so I figured I'd give them a try. Located on 14th and K St NW (remember Lima nightclub), you won't see a sign for it outside. Once you get to 1413, just go down the stairs and pull the mirror open at which point a bouncer will ask for your ID and tell you that no flash is allowed. Since it was Thanksgiving Day evening, I was the only one at the bar, but they're working with quite a small space. From talking to the bartender, it seems that they usually get busy and even have people waiting outside. Don't get fooled by the lines: it's nothing special, it's just a very small space. Can't say much for the decor, except that they have very dimmed lights, a couch and a few mirrors here and there. The time I was there, they played hip hop which was nice. The bartender was nice and knowledgeable about liquor which is always great. Their drinks are mainly gin and rye based, so I ordered the Brown Derby - it combined bourbon, grapefruit and honey. The drink was alright. Strong enough, but I didn't necessarily love the overall taste. I didn't have a bad time, but I also wouldn't rush to go back.

How cute is this place you walk down these stairs and you literally see an opening and a large Mirror. There was also a sign that said for rent. So I'm like is this the right address. I'm like I think this mirror is the door. I open the Mirror a nice gentleman comes out gets our ID's than we go in. The lights are low, long bar a few couches and another sitting area. The vibe is good we order drinks. I got a mule with ginger and I didn't like it. So I got a drink with tequila it was sour and yummy. I wish I took pictures, music was good and it was a mixed crowd loved it!

Came across this place when looking for a bar to try after dinner. At first, we were confused since it took us to a club type of place which you see right off the street. You walk down the stairs in front of that place and it leads you to what looks like a little bit of construction and a mirror. Very cool ambience, great cocktail selection, noise level was perfect, and a decent amount of seating for the number of people there. Would highly recommend if in dc!

This place is really very cool. For a DC speakeasy scene that can get real old real fast this place is a breath of fresh air. The door has absolutely no markings. Just get to 1413 K and go down the steps. There will be a broken window thats padlocked but walk on through and open the mirror! Biggest bonus to this place is the happy hour!! 3$ off cocktails at a place like this is really a winner. We sampled 4 of them, all made to perfection. They have a no phone light rule, which I thought really helped the place vibe. Although we were there on a Monday afternoon it was still fairly busy. Would love to come back on a Thursday or Friday night.

I love this little speakeasy. So off the beaten path but so warm and cozy on the inside. The music was great and so were my drinks. Definitely will visit again.
