Inside the Speakeasy Boom of Annapolis, Maryland

Stacy and her husband Ari Gejdenson, owners of Italian restaurant Acqua Al 2 and its sister speakeasy Harold Black, already had a lease on its 300-year-old building off Church Circle in Annapolis when they made the tough call to close the original Harold Black in Eastern Market during the pandemic. (And now, five years later, Stacy says they are currently in the process of taking that D.C. space back.) The couple's Annapolis offshoot of Harold Black has all the historical touches of a spot-on speakeasy. Elements of its bygone days as a bank remain intact, from the vault with its weighted pulley system to the night drop door (236 Main Street). 'We just wanted to give a nod to that time when these interesting cocktails were being created and the space just lends itself to that,' says Stacy. Customers can access Harold Black down the stairs from Acqua Al 2 or through a more tucked-away entrance on School Street. Drinks like the Corpse Reviver made with gin and lemon juice and the Navy Grog join bar snacks like fried calamari, artichoke hummus, and a crowd-pleasing cheeseburger, plus semi-frozen hazelnut mousse topped with a chocolate sauce for dessert. Patrons can also order off the menu from Acqua Al 2 upstairs. Harold Black is part of a speakeasy resurgence in Maryland's state capital. Its rich speakeasy history back centuries ago, starting with the 1747 Tavern off Church Circle that famously served George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Benjamin Franklin back in the day. Fast forward to the present, restaurateurs in the idyllic waterfront town located 30 miles from D.C. are focused on bringing back that hidden-bar intrigue. Cody Monroe and Clint Ramsden, two U.S. Naval Academy alums and former helicopter pilots, spared no expense in creating distinct speakeasy-lounges in the basements of two of their boutique hotels in Annapolis. The Black Pearl sits in their newly opened 86 State Circle, which sits directly across from the state house. They knew they wanted to do something different in transforming a former office building into a nine-room hotel. After perfecting the rooms upstairs, they added the guest-only speakeasy as a final touch. The guest-only Black Pearl is accessible through a dimly lit staircase off the main floor. A mural made of oyster shells will line one of the walls as a tribute to the thousands of oysters they dug up when excavating the floor to create the lounge's nine-foot-tall ceilings. The entryway to the bar maintained its original brick floor with muted lighting provided by sconces and picture lighting above the maritime-themed artwork that includes an original map of Annapolis. Despite being in a historic building, the tucked away bar has all the modern amenities. Snacks imported from France join cocktails made with house-infused spirits. Monroe and Ramsden, both 36, met as midshipmen at the revered Annapolis institution. After graduating in 2011 and finishing their tour of duty, they both returned to the area and founded Severn Grove Hospitality Group. The duo also run a horse-themed, guest-only speakeasy dubbed the Jockey Club Lounge at their other boutique hotel at 1313 West Street. Here they drew not only inspiration from NY's preppy Polo Lounge, but also the equestrian past of West Street — which actually functioned as a horse racing track hundreds of years ago. 'Famous figures like George Washington would come down and he'd bet on the horses and he'd lose all the time,' says Monroe. 'You've got this very cool but somewhat forgotten history right here outside of our front door.' With room for only 20 hotel guests at a time, the Jockey Club sends out classics like a smoked Old fashioned, lemon gimlet, Negronis, French 75, and Moscow mule. 'I always say that this is the coolest bar in Annapolis that's not actually a publicly accessible bar because it is guest-only access,' says Ramsden. 'But that exclusivity, I think, really makes people appreciate it more.' To drink like a founding father, head to the depths of the Reynold Tavern — one of the oldest taverns in the country — to find the publicly accessible 1747 Pub. Tucked off Church Circle, the iconic drinking den that once called the nation's first president a customer now holds trivia nights and jazz guitarist performances. See More:

‘Idiot' tourist sits on and shatters ‘Van Gogh' chair adorned with thousands of Swarovski crystals

Nightmare at the Museum. A foolish tourist in Italy sat on a chair adorned with thousands of Swarovski crystals for a photo op, crushing the precious work of art beneath his weight. Instead of lowering himself and pretending to sit for the photo — like the woman accompanying him had done — security video shows a man deciding to go for it and sit down. The chair crumbled under his weight, as he lost his balance, trying to hold on to the wall with both hands so he didn't fall. Advertisement 4 Security footage captured the moment the tourist shattered the precious art piece. facebook/palazzomaffei The woman came to his rescue, and the pair scurried out of the room. The Palazzo Maffei in Verona took to social media to shame the tourists, sharing footage of their actions, which they called 'superficial' and 'disrespectful.' Advertisement 'They ignored every rule of respect for art and cultural heritage,' the museum raged, noting the tourists waited for security to leave the room for the ill-fated photo op. The art piece by Italian artist Nicola Bolla was named the 'Van Gogh' chair, as it resembles a chair in one of the legendary Dutch painter's most famous pieces. The museum described it as an extremely delicate piece of work, entirely covered in crystals. 4 The chair was entirely covered with hundreds of crystals. facebook/palazzomaffei But this story has a happy ending — a few days after the horrific accident, the museum was breathing a sigh of relief. It had been able to restore the art piece to its original splendor. Advertisement 'For days we didn't know if it would be possible to restore it. But we did it,' a museum staffer recounted in Italian on Facebook. 4 Moments before the catastrophe. facebook/palazzomaffei 'A heartfelt thanks goes to the police, our security department and the restorers, whose precious work allowed the work to be recovered.' It's unclear what the recovery cost, and if the offending couple would be held responsible for the damages. Advertisement 'Idiots! I hope they are reported!' raged Davide Baraldi, in reaction to the museum's post. 'The embodiment of mediocrity, rudeness and ignorance,' added Federica De Guadalupe in a comment. 4 The man loses his balance, and the woman comes to his rescue, before the guilty pair make their escape. facebook/palazzomaffei

Keira Knightley Reflects on 'Pirates of the Caribbean' Criticisms: 'I Was Seen As A Terrible Actress'

Keira Knightley Reflects on 'Pirates of the Caribbean' Criticisms: 'I Was Seen As A Terrible Actress' originally appeared on Parade. Just as it's impossible to imagine anyone but Johnny Depp playing the swaggering buccaneer captain Jack Sparrow, it's practically unthinkable to picture anyone else portraying Pirates of the Caribbean's Elizabeth Swann save for Keira Knightley. Starring in the first three Pirates of the Caribbean films at a remarkably young age, Knightley served as one of the principal stars in the Disney-produced action fantasy series. Maintaining exceptional chemistry with co-stars Depp and Orlando Bloom, Knightley's role in the franchise launched the actress to new heights in the film industry. Looking back at her time in the series, however, the 40-year-old Oscar-nominated actress tends to view the franchise with a certain degree of bafflement. Speaking with fellow actress Rosamund Pike in a piece for Vanity Fair, Knightley specifically highlighted the criticisms she faced for her role in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, especially when held up to her critically acclaimed role in Pride & Prejudice in 2005. At the time, Knightley had received her first Academy Award nomination for portraying Pride & Prejudice's lovesick protagonist, Elizabeth Bennet. Though critical favor for her role in the Jane Austen adaptation was nothing less than extraordinary, Knightley soon said she faced criticism for her role in the Pirates of the Caribbean sequel. "Yes, it was pretty big for my career," Knightley said of the Oscar nomination. "If people will come up to me, it'll be about that one. Pirates of the Caribbean had already come out, but I think in the public consciousness, I was seen as a terrible actress. But I had this phenomenally big success with Pirates. And I think this was the first one that was a phenomenally big success, but was also critically acclaimed." "So I remember it coming out maybe the same year, maybe around the same time as Pirates 2," the actress continued. "And I got the worst reviews ever for that, and then also being nominated for an Oscar at the same time — it was, in my 21-year-old head, quite confusing." Keira Knightley Reflects on 'Pirates of the Caribbean' Criticisms: 'I Was Seen As A Terrible Actress' first appeared on Parade on Jun 13, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 13, 2025, where it first appeared.
