Legends Is Brisbane's New Secret Speakeasy You Need a Password to Get Into
No password, no entry.
Finding a new bar in Brisbane isn't a difficult task, but finding one particular new bar certainly is. The city has a new speakeasy, and it's not the kind of place anyone can just mosey on into. First, you'll need to decipher co-ordinates to find their CBD location — then you'll need a password to get through the door.
Inspired by 1920s prohibition-era clandestine watering holes and boasting a steampunk vibe, Legends Speakeasy Bar knows we all want to hide away from the usual scene (and maybe that we really enjoy secrets). Think of it as a drinking adventure that starts before you even walk in the door.
Of course, as Brissie's first password-protected bar, it won't stay a secret for very long. Those sought-after entry codes change weekly, and will be uploaded to Facebook and Instagram at 3.30pm each Thursday. It's quite nifty timing, with the bar then opening from 4pm to late from Thursday to Saturday — and they really are strict about their no password, no entry stance.
Once inside, you'll find old-world charm that matches its theme, complete with retro furniture and fixtures, plus a drinks selection spanning beers, wines and spirits, and both classic and exclusive cocktails. As for food, an array of tapas will provide sustenance for further secret-keeping, including fried brie, nacho cups and barbecue pork sliders.
