A Hidden Gem in Downtown Bainbridge
The Mailroom draws its name from the building’s origins as the town post office. Original architectural details and repurposed materials pay homage to that legacy, while modern finishes create a luxe, immersive environment that’s both relaxed and refined. The Mailroom speakeasy – Bainbridge is not just a bar—it’s a story in motion.
Down a quiet back entrance and beneath the historic Old Post Office lies a world of whispers, jazz, and perfectly poured cocktails—welcome to The Mailroom Speakeasy. This hidden underground lounge offers a distinctive blend of Prohibition-era mystery and Southern charm, creating a memorable experience that’s as much about ambiance as it is about taste.
Enter If You Know Where to Look
True to its speakeasy roots, The Mailroom keeps things subtle. With no flashy signs or obvious entry, it’s the kind of place you discover through a friend—or by simply knowing where to knock.
Okay, sometimes we make it easier to find….
Once inside, you’re greeted by warm lighting, vintage decor, plush seating, and the hum of conversation that fills the space with energy and intimacy. Patrons say it feels like stepping into another time—where every detail, from the dim Edison bulbs to the exposed brick walls, contributes to its moody, cinematic ambiance.
Craft Cocktails with a Twist
At The Mailroom, every drink has a story. Our bartenders are part mixologist, part showman—shaking and stirring with theatrical flair. Each cocktail is made with small-batch spirits, house-made infusions, and locally sourced ingredients whenever possible. The menu changes seasonally and often includes surprise specials inspired by historical recipes, guest requests, or themed events.
Favorites include our signature Smoked Old Fashioned served under a glass cloche, the Lavender Gin Fizz made with fresh botanicals, and our espresso martini with cold brew from a local roastery. Looking for something different? Ask for “off-menu”—our bartenders love a creative challenge.
The bar also offers a carefully selected list of wines, craft beers, and zero-proof options. Our non-alcoholic cocktails are just as complex and flavorful, catering to all preferences without sacrificing experience.

Crafted Ambiance, Down to the Details

Even the glassware and bar tools are chosen with care—evoking the elegance of the Roaring Twenties.
