Rochester Speakeasy Named One of the Best in the Country

I have to give a big shoutout to what I believe is the only speakeasy in Rochester, Minnesota that has now been named one of the best not just in Minnesota but in the entire country! It's pretty cool that a place like this is right in our backyard.

If you've never been to this place, this should be like a sign that it's time for you to go. My husband and I both love going here. They have great drinks and the atmosphere is exactly what we love. Also, the staff has always been fantastic when we've gone.

By the way, if you go to Bitter and Pour soon, they told me that the drink below is their special drink right now called Beauty and the Beast. It looks so good.
