Some people don't know that this used to be a funeral home, and more specifically, what this room was used for.

I couldn’t rate the food because they don’t serve any; however, their service and ambiance is exactly what I had hoped for and received. The bar is a dimly lit underground area with a cave-like feel to it. Accessible by entering the restaurant and then heading out the side door and down the stairs. Their pricing is on point. And when you get hungry they allow you to take your drink upstairs to meander and order food wherever you’d like making it possible to watch the sunset from the upstairs dining patio. A really great experience, perfect for date night or just hanging w friends.

Awesome ambiance. Fantastic drinks. Cool atmosphere for a super fun speakeasy with creative craft cocktails & also reasonable beer specials.

Very nice Palomas. Not too busy or loud on a Thursday night. Just a bar, no food

A great addition to downtown, especially downtown's best kept not-so-secret, secret spots! They have a decent list of things to choose from, good drink specials, and just the right vibe for everyone.. from a chill environment, to someone out for a fancy night on the town (upstairs at Reilly's perhaps?) It's a solid no brainer choice, that sets it aside from the chaotic hussle of Congress St. and the other bars alike.

This is a hidden gem!Came here after a night at the 50th Tucson Meet Yourself Festival. Me and my friend had a blast. While it is smaller, the atmosphere is conducive to meeting to people-all while sipping on a yummy drink. The bartenders were sweet and never made us feel rushed, they also made damn good drinks. Reasonable prices too!We’ll definitely be back!

This is my favorite bar in Tucson! The best place for an interesting and creative cocktail. I love that the bartenders get creative freedom with the menu too. Christina always makes the best drinks!
Cute! Yummy! Fun menu!! This place is in the basement of Reilly's, seat yourself and order at the bar.

Ok everyone who is giving this joint bad reviews because it isn't a "real" speakeasy need to sit down, get on Etsy to buy yourselves a better hobby, and shut up. I've been to the real real. The red light in a basement window in North Portland. The Chicago apartment that only serves beer trucked in (as in pickup) from Wisconsin. Chinatown kitchen back entrance in New York? Check. Sketchy AF call a number leave a message warehouse parties in Detroit? Check. Naked gogos through a metal grate in D.F.? Check. Don't make me go on. Just because the nice woman at the host booth didn't make you say Donald Duck and tap on the wall 3 times doesn't mean you aren't getting the real deal and if you need a literal secret password experience to get what a cool bar this is then you are a child, should not be drinking anyway, and Disneyland is half a day West. To the person who said it was fun to find and a good experience and then gave 2(!) stars I hope whatever god you worship sees fit to find mercy on your boring entitled soul. Ok the bar. The bar is great. Booths on one side and the bar with seating running the full length of a small but not cramped space. The cocktails looked great but I did not try them as I am not a cocktail girlie but I almost did because they have an entire section of the cocktail menu with drinks going to mutual aid for hospitality workers worldwide which I have never seen anywhere. I did have (twice) the special which is a 12 oz Coors Banquet in a can and a shot of surprisingly drinkable well whiskey neat for $6. In the year of our lord 2023 if you ask a bartender for something and they hand you 2 drinks for $6 you have discovered a secret password whether they asked you at the door or not. Get it together. Lighting was low, music was present but not blaring, bathrooms are clean and spacious, and oh yeah you are in a basement which Tucson, AZ does not have really so feel free to try to recreate this experience anywhere within a 100 mile radius because you won't be able to and should appreciate what you have instead. On the Friday of parents weekend at the U of A with hoards of suburban zombies roaming the streets and a packed pizza restaurant upstairs it was a small self-selecting group of chillers in the basement enjoying great hospitality and cold drinks. 10/10 haters stay away.

Horrible customer service. Beware of Mrs. Piggy!

Found this basement bar pretty interesting, but understaffed. Got an easy drink (whiskey, neat), and it took about 10 minutes.Also was pretty loud for a sit down bar IMO.

Cool spot for cocktails! First speakeasy I have been to in Tucson with a great vibe. The drinks are strong and super cute as featured!
