Giddy up at Flanker Kitchen + Sporting Club's new western speakeasy
Flanker Kitchen + Sporting Club recently revealed its latest rotating speak-easy: The Hidden Boot Saloon. The intrigue: The Wild West-themed immersive bar within a bar offers themed cocktails in creative vessels, country music and a mechanical bull. What I tried: Sitting next to a Dolly Parton mural, I sipped on the tequila-infused Buckaroo Water ($18) mixed with meszal, jalepeño-strawberry syrup, pickle water and lemon-lime soda. I also tried the pineapple rum-forward "Cowboy Colada" ($18) made with salted caramel whiskey, double rye whiskey, piña colada mix and molasses. Between the lines: The menu features zero-proof cocktails and an extensive selection of country-style burgers and bar bites. Hours: It's open 5-11pm Wednesday-Thursday and 5pm-1am Friday-Saturday.
