Baxter’s Speakeasy

Baxter's Speakeasy was a TOTAL vibe! From the moment we walked in, there was something eye-catching and beautiful on every wall--seriously, the decor is a masterpiece.The space is filled with amazing art for sale and tons of disco balls, which are completely my style. I couldn't stop taking it all in--I loved every detail!The cocktail we ordered was not only super fun but also absolutely delicious. The bartender was so kind, fun, and really added to the experience.This spot is perfect for a date or a night out with friends. Bonus: I found out there's going to be a DJ every Saturday night for the foreseeable future. If you're looking for a cool, unique place to hang out, Baxter's is definitely worth checking out!There's some pretty cool stuff goin on in Akron

Popped in by chance. Visitors to Akron, and we were getting pizza to eat, a bartender next door recommended the live music downstairs. Incredibly impressed. Low key, solid music venue.

Went here for a random night out and really enjoyed the lounge area upstairs. You had to search to find it but once you got there it was definitely a cool area. The drinks were also solid, service was a little slow but it was a busy night so I'm sure they were doing the best they could.

I'm 50, so I've lived. I've lived in London and Berkeley (and supposedly less hip places like Lexington Ky - though Lex is certainly hip in places ... hey, that's almost a Chiasmus for you rhetoricians out there.) You want to jump out your trip bag and ease on into hip bag but you ain't exactly sure what's hip? Get to Baxter's!Baxter's is the hippest in Akron...probably NE Ohio...all of Ohio? Let's just say that It is cool. Real cool. And the coolest thing about Baxter's is Baxter himself. Do yourself a favor and hit him up and then take it down a notch at Blu Jazz around the corner...and you'll be on a hip trip and be hipper than hip!

The food was good! And the drinks were even better! Fun hole in the wall highly recommend!

The best, cocktails are perfect, lighting is excellent, 100 points for ambiance. Bartenders are all awesome, my wife and I go to events early just to be able to stop in here for a cocktail .

Speakeasy ambiance was layback nice. Bartender was helpful and courteous. Has a beer and listed do two talented bluegrass groups. Ten dollar cover charge was more than reasonable. As was the $4.00 beer.

What a hidden gem. They can make anything but ask Baxter to make you something.3 business share the building so be sure to walk around.

I want to shout out to Baxter & everyone at this establishment for how you treated me.Baxter, you turned my night around with your kindness last night. Thank you for being an incredibly sweet quality character to a complete stranger. Definitely a safe place to find shelter from a terrible storm... And the ambiance was on point. The drinks looked like art. Highly recommend this hidden gem

Omg!!!!! Love the atmosphere and it's connected to totally baked pizza and it just simply omg. U have to come to this place! The atmosphere the drinks the pizza omg. Amazing!!! Live music (unless it's not enough people I guess) but great place nice friendly people great drinks, a little on the higher end but definitely pack a punch and worth it! Lol over all it's like 3 different places combined into one. U walk from typical bar environment to live music theme type of environment then to an awesome speakeasy kinda vibe bar an then to a completely hippie 420friendly (vibe only dnt light up ) kinda vibe. It's amazing place. Definitely recommend everyone to try ohhh an order the great white pizza u won't regret it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
