Best Speakeasy
Volstead

Shrouded away on Adams Street, hidden under the guise of an old-timey barber shop is the moody speakeasy Volstead. Volstead is the cream of the crop when it comes to speakeasies in Jacksonville, and consistently stays true to the tradition of dark lighting and misguided entrances. Once you uncover this hidden gem, the allure becomes irresistible — perhaps due to its impeccably crafted cocktails that never disappoint, or simply because it serves as the ideal refuge from the monotony of everyday life.

We cover events, concerts, restaurants, theatre, sports, art, happenings, and all things about living and visiting Jax. Folio serves more than two million readers across Jacksonville and Northeast Florida, including St. Augustine, The Beaches, and Fernandina.
