The Bookcase and Barber

Dec 2023

Such a unique and amazing idea! We had such an amazing time and were able to meet the owner herself. She talked to us a little bit about the design and history behind her business. And we loved that she incorporated the old bookstore into the current book bar, and speakeasy. Highly recommend going here!

This is the coolest place we have been to in a while. A great Speakeasy behind a functioning barbershop!You enter into the barbershop, and if you know the ”password” they will open the secret bookcase to let you into the bar (hint…go to their Instagram page and you will find it). Great atmosphere, dark, wonderfully furnished, and truly feels like you can just hang out and relax. The staff is very friendly, and constantly checks on you, and there are lots of places to sit with 2 actual bar areas.The cocktail menu is fun with lots of options, we wound up having a “Hemingway Part 1” Daiquiri and another fun cocktail, the “Dr. Frederick Fronkensteen” The daiquiris...read full review

Loved our night at The Bookcase and Barber. You enter through a secret bookcase, so already it feeds the speakeasy desire for mystery and fun.Drinks are well priced, handmade, and themed. I had the Bette Davis Eyes and The Hemingway 2, both featuring absinthe. The soage is cozy, dark, and atmospheric in the best way. Everyone who works there is knowledgeable and friendly.I highly recommend this bar any time you're in Durango. I will be back!
