PX is located in Old Town, Alexandria and does not advertise it's name on the street. The only identifiable thing about the bar is a blue light hanging over the doorway. There are about five steps and you see a buzzer. They always ask if you have a reservation

Another favorite bar that is a speakeasy style is Motel Bar in Wellington New Zealand.
We used to go all the time when I was living in NZ. I loved loved loved that bar. I miss those cocktails!

I didn't take any photos last night because I was a little underwhelmed by the decor inside PX. However, the drinks were pretty great. I had a Guinness infused gin drink and C mixed it up with orange infused vodka and their famous Gin & Tonic. Would I go back? Meh. I'd rather fly to NZ and go to Motel.

What does a "prohibition-style bar" mean? It has the word "bar" in it so I'm intrigued.
Cool concept ... I like the mysteriousness of it !
I agree, Sally!
Nicole, 1920 to 1933 the US had a ban on alcohol and "speakeasies" cropped up and were mainly run by the mob. The bars were illegal and were only identifiable by a blue light or a sign above a door. It's a cool concept!
