Piper is always amazing! As well as the rest of the staff. She makes awesome drinks and always gives us something new to try. We love the vibe and atmosphere here and love taking people there that have never been. Will continue to go back!

Steampunk retro ambiance and a curated chill playlist, the Speakeasy is a great place to have a drink. An eclectic never boring drink menu combined with bartenders that live their craft and love their customers, 510.2 is a place you'll want to return to when you crave a drink in Bismarck. No food served. But India Clay Oven is downstairs...

Amazing experience at 510.2 Speakeasy! Kenzie was an incredible server, friendly, attentive, and full of great surprises. We asked for six surprise drinks and Piper, John and Kenzie absolutely nailed it. Don’t forget about Q, he’s the man!

Terrible experience. I would never suggest to anyone to go here. The night of August 2nd 2025, a group of us went to eat and then went to have a drink at the Luft. Many of the guys we were with love the speakeasy and made it a point to include it in our schedule. We get to the entry of the bar and the employee (older guy, big beard, glasses) looked right us and immediately said no and herded us out. We were confused on maybe the bar was full or there was a wait time so we asked why a few times and he said to get out of the building and we were not welcome there. Many of the people we were with do not drink and maintained a very calm and sober demeanor and just asked why and were given no answer. The employee then proceeded to call the police to escort us out. The BPD guys were really great and basically said they are sorry we didn’t get an answer and suggested to just call management to make a complaint or to find the answer then. My husband held his hand up to be like “hey, you guys, let’s just leave” and the employee interpreted that gesture as “a threat” and then really started to yell at us. When we were walking back across the street, the employee was on the rooftop ensuring we left the property. Some of the direct comments he made to my friends were very alarming and incredibly disrespectful. We are still trying to figure out why we had to leave (dress code, too big of a group, anything??). I will never tell anyone from our town to try your place out and would encourage others to never go back there. Bismarck cops were great, and it’s a bummer your employee is an entitled, rude, shallow dude. We were waiting to trade an answer of why we were kicked out in exchange of us leaving and still left without answers. I hope this review is read by staff and I will be waiting for a reply back seeking an apology along with an explanation.

Only a good idea if you’re with a small group. They have lots of house cocktails and a few nonalcoholic options. Staff was very attentive, drinks were delivered quickly. They do not allow standing or socializing unless it’s the people at your table.

My boyfriend and I were staying the night in bismarck on our way home from a road trip! We found this place to check out as we both love quality cocktails and speak easy vibes. it was immaculate; the slight challenge to find the entrance, the decor, the music, everything! Piper helped us that evening. she was very knowledgeable and made the experience personal & comfortable. i asked for a suggestion on my second drink and was met with a delicious unique cocktail that my boyfriend and I both loved! Overall would recommend to anyone who appreciates a quality drink & atmosphere.

(the menu asks to take minimal pictures but i just had to steal this one for the memory.)

Sean was amazing, always checked up on us, drinks were fast. Gave his opinion on what drinks were the best ones to go with and super friendly. Both bartenders were also super friendly and fast with making the drinks. One of my favorite bars to go to.

Best cocktail bar in all of North Dakota, hands down! The bartenders are always very attentive and whilling to come up with something on a whim.

This was FUN. It took just a little bit of looking to find where we were going, but that's the whole point. It was small, dark, and cozy inside, just like a speakeasy should be. Our server didn't know much about liquor or the drinks, but he wasn't afraid to ask the bartenders for clarification (who where totally great). Our drinks were amazing. I had a Corpse Reviver #2 - my first absinthe drink - and it was spectacular. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Bismarck.

Amazing little bar! The drinks were absolutely fantastic! Piper really makes sure to go above and beyond to provide excellent customer service, and it makes you feel right at home!

I visited for the first time yesterday and I absolutely loved the layout of the place. It seemed a little busy, but our hostess, Piper, still got to us promptly. I was impressed by the range of drinks on the menu, which were amazing and quickly served once we ordered. I would give the place a 5 star rating except for the music, which was uncomfortably loud. I had to raise my voice for my friends who were sitting right by me to hear me, and I struggled to hear them. If the decibel level were even just cut in half, it would immediately raise the atmosphere of the place. I would definitely come again though!
