We’ve all had, at least one time or another, that juicy secret that we so wanted to share. But no matter how much we ached to tell at least another soul that secret, we kept it to ourselves. Some secrets, though, aren’t kept as well. This hidden speakeasy in Bristol, Pennsylvania, is a prime example of that. You might not even call it a secret at all, but whether you’ve heard of it or not, you really will find it makes a worthy addition to your bucket list.
So many people know about Daddy Tom's Cocktail Lounge that the speakeasy-style joint refers to itself as "Bristol's worst-kept secret." Secret or not, this unique spot is perfect for date night or a few drinks with friends, but first, you have to find it.
To do that, just head over to 304 Wine & Beer, pop inside, and look for the bookcase, but in classic speakeasy style, you just can't wander right in. You'll need a password to see what's behind the bookcase.
There's only one place to get that coveted passport, but it's easy and quick. Check the Instagram page of this hidden speakeasy in Bristol, Pennsylvania to find the day's password.
Once you've gained entry, you'll feel like you've been transported back to the days of Prohibition when alcohol was illegal. This speakeasy, though, offers a chill vibe, where you can relax with a tasty cocktail and a bite to eat.
You've got a few choices when it comes to cocktails. The Hiya Sugar features brown butter-washed bourbon while the This Is Not A Pipe is made of Dad's Hat Rye Whiskey. Don't forget to ask about the Highball of the Month, which features the speakeasy's house-made soda.
