"What It Is: A speakeasy behind a coffee shop in Nomad Perfect For: Date Night Patent Pending is a coffee shop in Nomad that turns into a speakeasy around 5pm. It’s a dark little space with a bar and a row of booths, and it feels like a cave full of candles, where there are also good cocktails. It was pretty packed when we stopped by, and they only take reservations for large parties, so you should have a backup bar in mind in case there’s a wait. The Verdict: A great new place to drink, as long as you can get in and don’t mind paying $17 for a cocktail. It’s going on our Bar Hit List." - hannah albertine, bryan kim, katherine lewin, hillary reinsberg, chris stang, matt tervooren
