Inside Sonny’s Speakeasy: Bournemouth’s Best-Kept Secret Bar

Tucked away behind a discreet entrance, Sonny’s Speakeasy is one of Bournemouth’s best-kept secrets.  Inspired by the prohibition era, Sonny’s offers a more intimate and sophisticated alternative to the town’s high-energy nightlife scene, while still feeling warm, relaxed and welcoming.

Born from a passion for wine and a love for nostalgia, Sonny’s Speakeasy brings something truly different to Bournemouth. The bar boasts an impressive selection of cellar wines, exceptional spirits and expertly crafted cocktails, all served with care by a team that understands the art of good hospitality. Alongside the drinks, you’ll find beautifully presented charcuterie and cheese boards, perfect for sharing.

Live Music

Live music adds to the charm, with performances every weekend, creating a gentle energy that complements the space rather than overpowering it. It’s subtle, classy and perfectly suited to the speakeasy setting.

Happy Hour

There’s also a Happy Hour until 8pm, offering any two cocktails for £16, making it easy to enjoy something special earlier in the evening. Whether you’re starting a night out or planning to stay put, it’s a great excuse to explore the cocktail menu.

Sonny’s Speakeasy is down to earth, stylish and full of character. It’s ideal for date nights, small gatherings or anyone looking for a more refined evening out in Bournemouth.
