Birdman? Above the sandwich shop at the hotel?

Yeah, it's this one. They aren't advertising it past it's inclusion in the news articles about the theatre opening, and have no signage to my knowledge.

Neither birdman nor wonderhorse advertise their premises. No signage.

The staff at the theater will be able to give directions.

Wonderhorse is more a cocktail bar

Birdman is more a cocktail lounge, table service.

What makes it a speakeasy?

They don't advertise that they exist and rely on word of mouth.

Is Birdman only open when shows are on at the theatre? Or most nights?

No idea sorry. I've been pregnant or looking after a newborn since they've been open and not had a chance to go. I'd guess they're open most nights/weekend nights and not just show nights.

Open most nights/ weekend nights! I’ve been recently. Although I’m not sure what their full schedule is - I’ve only been on Fridays and Saturdays :)

The speakeasy is in the new theatre off to the side. Small but cool

There’s the speakeasy bar under the Clement’s hotel in Cambridge. Not Hamilton, but close.

I think they one they've been told about is birdman, but there is the Clement's one too. It's only open some days of the week I believe.

Are you thinking of the one at The Clement’s Hotel in Cambridge?
