Our Take

Milan's Pre-Prohibition Hidden Speakeasy

1930 is a hidden speakeasy in Porta Romana. The bar requires a reservation and a password. Once admitted, you enter a 1930s themed cocktail room — leather banquettes, antique cocktail glassware, dim warm lighting — with serious classical cocktail discipline.

The drinks are precise. The bartenders work in formal jackets. The seasonal menu rotates with thoughtful original cocktails using period specifications alongside reliable classics.

The crowd is mid-thirties Milan cocktail enthusiasts. Pair with Nottingham Forest for a complete Milan cocktail evening.
