During the prohibition era, Phoenix became a hub for the underground nightlife scene. The rise of thriving Phoenician speakeasies is often attributed to the growing population and bustling economy – even attracting the likes of celebrities like Al Capone and John Dillinger. After the ban was lifted, the secrecy of these places faded but the allure and charm still remains.
