Entry No. 16 — the Charlotte file — filed under: speakeasy

Backstage Lounge at SouthBound

Hidden behind the SouthBound taco joint, this music-inspired speakeasy requires you to walk down a grooming lounge hallway and use a vintage phone booth to dial the weekly Instagram password.

The move: Check their Instagram for the weekly password, find the phone booth behind the restaurant, and dial in to gain entry for a night of classic cocktails and retro tunes.
