Boston Speakeasy Bar

Walking along the streets and lanes of Verbania that overlook the breathtaking landscape of Lake Maggiore, I arrive in the hamlet of Intra, where I discover a little place that holds the secret charm of the Speakeasy: where history and cocktails come together.

THE place

The venue, Boston Bar Speakeasy, is one of the most fascinating in the area for the details that make you remember a unique and unforgettable experience.

The offerings range from spectacular and tasty cappuccinos made with Latte Art techniques to signature cocktails that cannot be replicated in other venues.

One of the Owners Igor Gallicchio tells us that he had always dreamed of opening this kind of venue that replicates those that opened clandestinely during American Prohibition in the 1920s.

This type of venue continues to this day to exert an irresistible attraction for those seeking a unique and exclusive experience. Characterized by a discreet and often disguised entrance, speakeasies offer a trip back in time, immersing visitors in a retro and refined setting.

The speakeasy offers a meticulously curated environment, with soft lighting and jazz music playing in the background helping to create a cozy, atmospheric atmosphere far removed from the hustle and bustle of modern life.

But it is not only the setting that makes this speakeasy bar unique, the craft cocktails masterfully prepared by Igor contribute to an unforgettable sensory experience.

The recepies

Cocktail recipes are often twists on classic Prohibition-era recipes; these drinks are true masterpieces of mixology, combining high-quality ingredients in surprising combinations.

the PHILOSOPHY.

The philosophy of speakeasies is also based on exclusivity and confidentiality: access is often limited to those who know the password or can locate the secret entrance, helping to create a sense of belonging and privilege among regulars.

In an age when technology seems to dominate every aspect of our lives, speakeasy bars represent an oasis of authenticity and magic, where it is possible to unplug.
