In the heart of Gardner, Kansas, The Forge stands as a tribute to its rich history as a former blacksmith shop along the Santa Fe Trail. This meticulously restored establishment is nestled between the Ash & Anvil cigar lounge and The Bellows outdoor bar, creating a unique atmosphere for patrons.
Guests enter The Forge through a clandestine facade, evoking the allure of the prohibition era. With a secretive password whispered into a vintage phone, they gain access to a dimly lit speakeasy adorned with original wooden beams and brickwork, preserving a bygone ambiance.
Inside The Forge, patrons are enveloped in an atmosphere brimming with nostalgia and rebellion. Soft jazz music, the clink of glasses, and the aroma of aged whiskey set the scene for an evening of crafted cocktails and camaraderie, offering a retreat from the modern world and a journey through time.
