Speakeasys are my favorite. They are so unique and so well put together. I absolutely love the idea of a secret code or a hidden door and just overall how they are decorated. Each speakeasy I've been to is so unique in its own way and it makes for such a great experience.

I know Connecticut isn't home to many speakeasy bars, but I feel like they are going to start popping up more and more. Just recently, Wallingford had a new one pop up, so I of course had to go and see for myself what it was like. Here's a look at what I got to see:

Connecticut Hidden Bar Takes You Back in Time to Blockbuster Movie Days

A new speakeasy bar called The Gilded Curtain is now open in Wallingford, so I of course had to check it out myself.

The storefront alone is worth the visit. Everyone was so friendly and as you can see, it's such a cool place to check out. The movie front really gives you a hint of nostalgia. The bar is called The Gilded Curtain located at 86 Center Street in Wallingford. They are closed Monday through Wednesday and are open Thursday through Sunday from 5-11.
