Wow. What a literal hidden gem!! I would've never heard about this if it wasn't for my partner. If you want to feel like you're stepping back in time and going to an actual speak easy. Look no further. This place is so moody it could be going through puberty. Draped windows, lit by candle light, flowers everywhere. This truly feels like you're being let in on the best kept secret in baltimore. The vibe alone make this place a must go. But the drinks are even BETTER. Masterly crafted, loving decorated. This place is sexy and addictive. I was too busy chatting, drinking, and soaking up the ambiance to even get a picture to show you. Do yourself the favor, get out here, put your phone away, and savor this one of a kind experience.

WC Harlan is a wonderful speakeasy just a few minuites outside downtown Baltimore. The cocktails are unique and well priced for what you get, and the ambiance is uniquely dark and broody, perfect for a quiet sit-down with an old friend or a new flame. The bartenders are great, with good advice on drinks, pleasent conversation, and relaxed attitudes. This isn't going to be my usual go-to because it's a bit out of the way and dark, but first on the list when that's the type of establishment I've got in mind. Make a point of checking this bar out--you won't be disappointed.

WC Harlan is an easy to miss speakeasy in almost the middle of nowhere. It was giving the perfect speakeasy-vibes with dimly lit ambiance, lit candles all around, and instrumental music playing in the background. I got the Fragola '75 ($15) and it was very refreshing with notes of fruitiness from the strawberry and aperol and a slight tartness from the lemon. I loved the inclusion of cardamom to provide that subtle earthy note. A lot of people were ordering the Sichuan Daiquiri ($12) so I had to try that as well. I am a fan of Sichuan food so I was curious to taste that flavor profile in a cocktail. It had very subtle Sichuan notes from the Sichuan peppercorns. The sourness from the lime juice and the sweetness from the raw honey really balanced everything out.

WC Harlan is now one of my top favorite speakeasies in Baltimore. The door confused me when I FIRST ARRIVED lol, but this place is so well-decorated and so intimate that I WANT TO COME here more often. My drink was made sooooooo well, and the hot spiked apple cider was TO DIE FOR. Props to the owners and workers at this location because I am obsessed!

Walking through an unassuming side door, you're greeted with a dimly lit but well-decorated interior and staff dressed to make you feel like you're in some luxury back-room speakeasy of the 20s. Both staff on duty were super friendly and well-versed with the menu, making the experience 1000% more enjoyable as my friends and I chatted with them over drinks and Baltimore. The cocktails themselves were superb. I ordered a Buhmi Sour and the floral espresso martini (forget the exact name of it) and both were superb! Well priced for their quality and the venue's general atmosphere. Definitely recommend!

WC Harlan is a hidden gem with vintage charm, the perfect escape for cocktail lovers. Tucked away in a secret spot, it oozes ambiance with dim lighting, cozy seating, and a laid-back vibe. As a mezcal enthusiast, I was sold on the Buhmi Soar--it had the perfect smoky balance I love. My husband went for the tutti fruitti, which was just as delightful with its playful blend of flavors. The bartenders craft inventive drinks with a nod to the classics, making it an ideal spot for a quiet date or a relaxed night with friends. If you're looking for a spot with character and amazing cocktails, this is your little getaway.

WC Harlan is a low key 19020s speakeasy with unique drinks. It is a very cozy spot and very dark on the inside. They also offer mocktails.

What a gorgeous speakeasy!!! I can't believe it's taken me this long to come here. The space is so cozy and romantic. The decor and dim lighting make this such a nice experience. The drinks were so well-crafted and I cannot wait to come back to try more of the menu that rotates. I had a rhubarb drink that had such a depth of flavor I cannot describe!

WC Harlan is definitely the best drinking spot in Baltimore. You get to try some really unique cocktails as well as ask the bar for recommendations and or something that you've read about and want to try.The mood here is very relaxing as well as a great thinking space. I love all the real candles and wax dripping from them! Grab a friend and head over for a delicious cocktail and conversation.

WC Harlan is a hidden gem that masterfully captures the essence of a classic speakeasy. Nestled behind an unmarked door in a relatively quiet neighborhood, it offers an intimate, moody ambiance perfect for a nightcap or a reflective cocktail experience. The expertly crafted drinks are both potent and flavorful, complemented by the vintage-inspired decor and soulful vibe. It's the kind of spot where you feel like you're in on a secret--a must-visit for cocktail enthusiasts. Street parking is always available and as an added bonus, it's free.
