The Gilded Curtain is a hidden cocktail speakeasy located in downtown Wallingford, Connecticut. Guests enter through an unexpected vintage VHS video store façade before discovering an intimate cocktail lounge hidden beyond the secret entrance.
Our menu focuses on creative craft cocktails, classic cocktails, whiskey, bourbon and rotating specialty drinks, complemented by tastings, live music and special events throughout the year.
The Gilded Curtain was created for guests looking for something different from a traditional bar — a small, immersive destination built around cocktails, conversation, music and a little bit of mystery.
