I made reservations for 1 at Betty Lou's as it is one of the higher rated bars in Calgary. Lucky me, I made reservations on their Jazz night (Thursday night). I did research prior to coming to Betty Lou's and found out I needed a password to get into this speakeasy (pretty cool). I called around opening, told them my name, and was given a personal password to use at the front door. Some quick tips: Make reservations on yelp! Try to shoot for Thursday, Jazz nights. Call in when open to get a password Located in the basement/lower floor of address on Yelp Dress semi formal. I saw someone get turned away for wearing shorts and a t-shirt. I had a flannel button up and jeans ( other people wear in blazers, dress shirts, etc.). Ambiance: flapper era vibe, with purple lights, nice chandeliers. Jazz night was great with awesome music. Drinks: ON POINT!! So good that I ordered two!! The double smoke manhattan was super unique. It was Smokey and tasty. The Jane Erye was very refreshing, and good too!! Service: super friendly staff! Great recommendations and felt very welcomed! Overall: one of the best speakeasies I've been to. The drinks, vibe, service, etc. I'll definitely be back when I visit Calgary again!
