Speakeasy

Great for creative cocktails
Great for happy hour
Neighbourhood gem

When Franklin Delano Roosevelt was President he took the country out of Prohibition and changed the course of history as it relates to bars, restaurants, and the hospitality industry in general. We want to welcome you back to the roaring twenties when flappers, bath tub gin and hidden cocktail lounges called “Speakeasies” were all the rage!

You can enjoy cocktails and elevated pub food at the expansive mahogany bar in our Saloon. Intimate groups of 4-6 can dine privately in The Hide Out and be given special attention by our Chef. You and your party can enjoy creative dishes in our Dining Room. You may want venture into Lucy's Parlor which is our Speakeasy named after FDR's long-term mistress and the love of his life for a sultry date night or just a fun night out! The Speakeasy is open Thursday - Sunday evenings provided we aren't hosing a private event in that space.

The Roosevelt isn't just a Restaurant, Lounge, Speakeasy or Private Event Space; it's truly an experience!

Very nice place. Beautifully done decor. Music could be more curated and energetic. It was all the place from gospel to rap. One thing I noticed was there were clothes and spray bottles for table cleaning in full view of the dining room and waiter station a bit messy. Food was very good. Drinks were pretty good. I did ask for simple syrup. Waiter when you arrive at bar should be automatic before ordering a drink. We loved the ramp pizza. All the food was well seasoned and presented. You may want to offer a prix fixe on weekdays. Monday Tuesdays and Wednesday nights can be challenging. We will definitely be back to support this local business. Staff was very nice and accommodating. Congrats!

This place ! Wow… I didn’t get any food so pardon the 1 star It makes you choose. I think it will do great ! Stopped in for date night but got a drink and left. Wasn’t the vibe we wanted at the moment but I will definitely return. The place looks amazing and there’s a hidden speakeasy down stairs. This place will do very well. Parking is a little blahhh but I can’t wait to go back on a weekend I wish them the very best of luck and success
