Allegory is a hotel speakeasy featuring a beautiful space with a lovely mural that brings the story of integration by a young woman in the south to life. The bar serves creative cocktails, including the standout Dreamteam, and offers an excellent goat cheese plate. The atmosphere is lively, with a DJ playing throwback favorites, making it a fun spot to visit. However, the space is small and can get quite loud, which might make conversations difficult.
Guests have enjoyed drinks like Eyes of Flame and have praised the unique bar theme, organized as a fantastical narrative with a personal touch that makes the cocktails unique. Despite the fantastic ambiance, it is essential to note that Allegory does not accept reservations, so larger parties may face long waits, especially on weekends. Although waiting can be frustrating, the experience of enjoying incredible food and cocktails still makes for a memorable night. The friendly and helpful staff, especially the bartender, contributes to the welcoming atmosphere.
