Entry No. 26 — the Kansas City file — filed under: speakeasy

P.S. Speakeasy

Concealed in the basement of the historic Art Deco Hotel Phillips, this speakeasy occupies a long-forgotten 1930s mail-sorting room. To enter, guests must locate a hotel employee or find the hidden door tucked behind the lobby's reception desk.

The move: Walk into the glamorous 1930s lobby of Hotel Phillips, whisper to the front desk staff to find the secret entrance, and head downstairs to sip a 'Jet Fuel' gin cocktail in a cozy, low-lit booth.
