    Speakeasy Hidden bar Cocktails Literary Intimate
    Hidden behind the lobby of The Oliver Hotel, Peter Kern Library is Knoxville's only speakeasy. Accessed through an alleyway, this intimate bar exudes 1920s charm with dark wood, a fireplace, and shelves of books. Cocktails are named after literary characters, adding to the unique atmosphere. It's a cozy spot where time seems to slow down.
