I visited NLB while in town for a conference, my cousin and I, we had a wonderful time with our bartender Kit! He was soooo much fun! Played really great music!

This is a TRUE speakeasy, not one of those fake speakeasy's that say they are a speakeasy, but are blatantly obvious, everyone knows where it is, and there is at least an hour wait to get in. I love that it's one way in and one way out to keep it discreet in the very active blagden alley. The bouncer is also always super helpful, asking if we know the address for the Uber and where the exit and bathrooms are. The drinks are strong and delicious and the decor is Instagram worthy. The djs are always playing the best music and the whole place is just a vibe! Located below eighteenth street lounge, the speakeasy feel is definitely there and it's never too overly crowded!

Never Looked Better is definitely a cute vibe. I prefer this location over other "secret" speakeasies around the downtown area. The staff was chill but professional, and there was a female DJ that was keeping the vibe going. The bartenders are nice too, and were attentive to my crew. The theme inside was cherry blossom and it was fun. There's plenty of bar seating and a few couches that are for reservation. The drinks are good..and strong, so just a heads up. The diverse crowd, and the mix of hip hop, house, and old school music-makes this place an excellent choice to finish out the night. The bathrooms are unisex...and are kept surprisingly clean. Highly recommend!!

This establishment overcharged me for 2 drinks I never purchased and added a 40% tip after I forgot to close my tab. Unethical business practices, I will not return again and would advise you stay away!

Cool bar one. Entrance only and exitonly doors on opp side of bar. Great music and atmosphere. Nice ambiance, till 10pm Very quiet then weird characters trickle in after that. Great music. Recommend the old fashion then top off the night w the espresso.
Never Looked Better is definitely Insta ready, but that's pretty much all it has going for it. Never Looked Better had been on my list for ages, so when we finally had the chance to pop in on a date night, we search and scoured and finally found it. The ambiance is super cool, with tons of photo spots. The music was fine when we stopped in. Please note, we are millennials. We def stopped in on the earlier side without a crowd at all, and that was fine by us. The three stars comes from the drinks. There's zero creativity. My espresso martini was good, but the menu lacks innovation. If you want an a-ok drink that you could easily make at home, by all means, stop by and take a sweet pic while you're there. If you'd like a beverage that you can't make at home, I'd skip this one (or pop in just for one and the pics... seriously, it's grammable), and head to one of the numerous spots nearby.

This place was such a cozy and cute vibe!! Th entrance was a little hard to find, but I think that's part of the fun experience! A literal hidden gem They had couches and comfy seating in the entrance area, their drinks are pretty standard, but good! And they offer virgin mocktails! They also had a private party area when we went there that was roped off and they looked like they had a good time! I plan to come back here. Definitely the spot to hit as the first place of the night or the last one as you're winding down. Good for a girls night out, or a date night! The music was good as well! We were welcomed with good vibes and it was a great night!

Great speakeasy, hidden in a back alley behind a sticker covered silver door, with excellent atmosphere, excellent service and great cocktails. Recommend the Fresh Prince with gin and the Espresso
