Located on the second floor of the Printing House building, Foxglove masquerades as a high-end umbrella boutique until the correct handle (hint: silver) reveals a hidden door into a sultry, mid-century inspired speakeasy. The space unfolds like a gentleman-adventurer's private retreat—think moody lighting, rich ink-blue leather, wood paneling, and a sculptural cream lacquer ceiling. Inside, Foxglove’s interior is theatrical—inspired by its fictional founder Frank Minza, a globetrotting English gentleman. Vintage aviation motifs abound, including a replica 1940s Gloster jet engine mounted behind the stage. Signature cocktails such as the warming Bitter Truth (Kraken rum, bitters, orange, lime) and the elegant Fox Martini (sake, Tanqueray, maraschino, grapefruit bitters) are often presented via a classic martini cart. The venue comprises multiple rooms—each offering its own narrative. One private area evokes a first-class train cabin with arched ceilings and red decor; another, a VVIP lounge, enveloped in emerald green hues with library-like bookshelves and leather club chairs. Secret passages and hidden entrances heighten the sense of mystery. Beyond dramatic design, Foxglove is a recognized institution—frequently celebrated as one of the city's most fascinating speakeasies. Awards range from global cocktail bar rankings to spots in "Best Jazz Lounge" lists. Live jazz, blues, and soulful acts further elevate the experience from Tuesday through Saturday. Tasteful, theatrical, and steeped in narrative, Foxglove is less a bar and more a sensory voyage—perfect for date nights, after-dinner rendezvous, or those seeking stylish intrigue.
