WHY ROOSEVELT IS THE INSPIRATION FOR THIS CONCEPT

FDR ran for President on a platform calling for Prohibition’s repeal and easily won the election. His victory meant the end of Prohibition on December 5th in 1933 when Congress adopted a resolution proposing a 21st Amendment to the Constitution that would repeal the 18th and would end Prohibition. During the Prohibition Era, Speakeasies popped up around the United States. They were very private and hidden places where people could go to unwind and drink alcohol without being prosecuted.

Following the end of Prohibition atmospheric restaurants and cocktail lounges sprung up as revelers from New York to California rushed to enjoy vintage cocktail favorites or new-fangled concoctions. The end of Prohibition also provided a big boost to the economy and took liquor distribution out of the hands of organized crime and gangsters like Al Capone.

The Roosevelt is named after a President who took the country out of Prohibition changed the course of history as it relates to bars, restaurants, and the hospitality industry in general. We want to welcome you back to the roaring twenties when flappers, bath tub gin and hidden cocktail lounges called “Speakeasies” were all the rage.
