Overview

Head downstairs to the unmarked black door and ring the little white buzzer to gain entry to a this cozy beer lovers bar in the former Bourgeois Pig West space. There's a unique selection of bottle beers (weighted heavily with Belgian Ales) and a small but thoughtful wine selection.

History

Still down the rabbit hole

By December 2007, 124 Old Rabbit Club was in the old Bourgeois Pig West space, down fire-escape steps behind an unmarked black door, with a buzzer to get in¹. In 2017 The Infatuation called it a below-ground tiny dive with maybe 10 seats and a craft beer nerd's dream², and in 2019 Time Out said rarities, indie labels and European beers were the order there³. Time Out's 2019 listing has it bubbling with life beneath the streets, and an undated video guide calls it a cozy speakeasy-style bar on MacDougal Street^{3, 4}.
