Read moreThe night we went to The Trap Door my girlfriend and I dressed up to try the new Speakeasy we just heard about. The interior and warm welcome we received on entering set a fantastic tone from the outset.
However, that night there was a sorority party being conducted at The Venue above, the raucous party and noise was extremely loud and polluted the atmosphere to the point we nearly left before ordering. ( No one who goes to a speakeasy style bar wants to hear blaring rap music)

The pitas are the sabra minis and we were given 8 extra... The fondue was $20 and was warm melted, not hot milk chocolate chips. There were 7 banana slices, 4 strawberries cut in half, 4 bite size pieces of angel food, and 4 Pretzel rods....

Although it's a speakeasy expect a loud environment. It's got the ambiance of other speakeasys I've been too, but none of the...
