Sotto Terra at The Sanctuary

Located in the basement of a historic former church (The Sanctuary on Neil), this hidden lounge features gothic vibes, stained glass windows, and walls covered in rare pop culture memorabilia. It functions as a speakeasy and cabaret, hosting themed trivia nights, drag bingo, and dance parties.

The move: Descend the dark staircase lined with vintage Rolling Stone covers, grab a dry-ice cocktail under the glow of the neon 'Sotto Terra' sign, and test your knowledge at one of their highly competitive pop-culture trivia nights.
