In the back of Chanhassen’s Tequila Butcher in Chanhassen, look for a hallway with an old-fashioned phone booth. Pass through the dark curtains to the right and step back in time, to a place where last century’s roaring 20’s are still roaring. Choose from over 500 whiskeys, including rare pours concealed in a “Members Only” wall safe. Feathers and suspenders are encouraged here.

During Prohibition, the success of speakeasies was due in part to their creative disguises as everyday businesses. In Anoka, The Hardware Store revives that clandestine tradition by sending patrons on a search for a red light above a heavy metal door. Come for live jazz, blues, and guitar music and cocktails with modern twists — like the “Mayor Lorraine,” a turquoise elixir of champagne, tequila, house mixes and edible glitter.

The Cardinal Room prides itself on being exceptionally hard to find. Reservations here are required, and cell phones are checked at the door. Come for quirky cocktails like the signature “The Cardinal,” made with Pappy Van Winkle 15 Year and red dye #6, or the “Coocoo Bird,” a pour of absinthe. More details are provided upon reservation.

Tread down the alley and keep an eye out for the red light above a door to spot this hidden bar. Not only does Volstead’s pour some excellent drinks, but it has an extensive food menu — details aren’t publicly available online, but expect burgers, rich desserts, and classic cocktails like gimlets. Come for live jazz music on the weekend, or ragtime happy hour tunes off the old-fashioned grand piano.

Prohibition Bar isn’t exactly hidden, but considering it’s on the 27th floor of the Foshay Tower, it is hard to reach. Order an old-fashioned cocktail like the “Jackie Diamond,” made with Keeper’s Heart Irish-American whiskey, cherry bark bitters, and orange peel, and poured into a smoked class. The bar — and the Foshay Tower itself — drips with the ornamental charm of the 1920s and 30s.

This hidden bar behind Young Joni is just as popular as the award-winning restaurant it’s attached to. Sneak down the alley and look for the red neon light, which indicates if the bar is open. A limited number of patrons are allowed at a time inside, but the wait is worth it — this intimate room, cloaked in dark florals and velvet, feels like your sophisticated grandma’s basement setup. (That is, if your grandma had a 70s-era reel-to-reel playing in the background.)

Descend a tight staircase in a nondescript building in Stillwater, and you’ll enter a dusky room filled with stylish seating and romantic corners. Sneak onto the secret garden patio and enjoy a Prohibition-era classic cocktail, like a Pisco sour topped with ethereal egg whites.
