Step into the enchanting world beneath the streets of Duluth and join us every Thursday night at The Rathskeller, Duluth's premier speakeasy cocktail lounge nestled in the historic underground of the city's original 1889 City Hall building. Immerse yourself in an evening of live, upbeat jazz performed by talented local musicians, where the music takes center stage and the ambiance transports you to a bygone era.

🕰 When: Every Thursday night, 9-11pm

🎤 Live Music: Local bands take the stage each week, including Becktet and Triforce Experiment, delivering a diverse range of jazz styles. The Becktet, led by trumpeter Rebecca Fulin, offers classic jazz standards with a modern twist, while Triforce Experiment, featuring Kyle Gill, seamlessly blends jazz, hip-hop, electronic, and dance music for a truly unique and improvised sonic experience.

🍷🍸🥂🥃 Libations: Indulge in our extensive selection of whiskey, wine, beer, and expertly crafted cocktails, ensuring your senses are as delighted as your ears.

Originally a holding cell for the municipal court and later a coal furnace room during the city's government era from 1889-1926, rumors suggest it served as a speakeasy during prohibition, adding an air of mystery to its charm. Some patrons have even reported ghostly sightings within the bar!
