Although the bartenders were amazing and very talented, this place has more hidden secrets than you can see on the surface. I ordered a single shot of rum and coke. It was my first drink of the night. The drink tasted good but was more sweet than strong. I ordered a second one, which was very strong. I felt like the waiter gave me a double instead of a single. I actually asked him if this was a double and he said no. I will note that the second drink came from the bar upstairs as the first drink came from the bar downstairs. I had 2 more rum and cokes and both tasted like there was no alcohol in them. In fact, after 4 drinks, I felt nothing. I strongly believe the alcohol is watered down. Usually I am kinda tipsy by now, but nothing. I then got my bill and seen that there is a (20%) MANDATORY GRATUITY CHARGE. I was with 3 other people who didn’t even notice the charge and tipped 20%. So my friends tipped 40% without even knowing. The waiter gave us no warning about it. And my friends were mad after I told them. None of us will ever go back, faint music, watered down drinks, and mandatory gratuity. No thank you!

This place really exceeds expectations! Google maps shows it as being a whiskey bar (sounds great!) but we were surprised to find out it’s a speakeasy! We loved the space theme, the drinks, and the staff! We had the best time here and could not stop talking about the great cocktails!

Love the hidden entrance, great selection of scotch, service was great. My own feeling is that the space décor didn’t suit the wall of high-end scotch. But, hey, gave us something to talk about! Was a fun way to end our evening.

Best whisky/cocktail bar and after work hangout in the whole city! By far the most extensive whisky selection, and great cocktails too. Staff is so friendly, ambiance is one of a kind. Don’t pass this place by!

What an incredible experience! I'm biased because my favorite liquor is scotch and I have a space degree, so a place like this just screams me, but this place is unlike any other I've been to! The selections of whiskeys is immense, so many scotches (80 if I had to guess). The bartenders take particular care of every drink and are very easy to talk to without them losing focus on making your drink properly. Ingredients are fresh too!

One of the coolest places in Victoria. The staff are way above average and the drinks are out of this world. Make sure to check out the whiskey selection while Arty spins some crunchy tracks.

Is whiskey your thing? This is your place!Are sophisticated space themed bars your thing? This is your place!I have never seen such a wide selection of Scotch, Bourbon, Irish and even other kinds of Whiskey, such as the rare Japanese ones. You will not be disappointed.All that said, this is NOT your regular everyday pub, you are not expected to come and spend a loooong night out with friends, there is no food, and the liquor is heavy, make sure to eat something first.As a matter of fact I'd mainly recommend this place as a nightcap after some nice dinner.

Old night club turned speakeasy. Still looks and feels like a club that has some decoration changes. Also odd that it is space themed. With speakeasy would be expecting moreso prohibition era themed. Imagine space theme was the plan and the old cover charge desk at the top of the stairs was turned to speakeasy since didn't know what to utilize that little landing for.
