Speakeasy on State offers 4000 square feet of elegance, mixed with beautiful hardwoods, raw exposed brick, and the finest period specific details - found nowhere else in town.

Venue Features
The scene:
Our space exudes elegance and class. You enter to a long wide staircases with 100 year old brick to your right. The first room you enter we call our "Columbia room" It has the original brick advertisement from the late 1800's and was recently uncovered by a restoration expert. The original ceiling medallions have been pieced back together and restored. This room has large double hung Windows that bring in light perfect for capturing that perfect photo.

Our Grand ballroom is entered through the original door with two holes (one for the password and one for the shotgun) keeping with that original speakeasy history. This room boasts tall vaulted ceilings, original hardwood and wainscoting, Edison lighting, and rare double blade ceiling fans.
Design:
Every feature of the space has been restored back to its original condition as much as possible. Everything from the doorways, to windows, to pieces of molding all retain their original shape and character. Everything from marble to period specific chandeliers, the Speakeasy offers history along with beauty.
Standout venue features:
We host many themed parties throughout the year. We most recently hosted a Gatsby themed party and it was a huge success and so much fun!
Extra perks:
We have a custom made copper bar and arch that are included with all inclusive packages.
