Bagheera

Bagheera is a hidden, Indian-inspired speakeasy in Vancouver's Chinatown accessed through a faux betting shop counter by placing a bet or using the password 'King Louie'. The interior is lavishly styled with thousands of pieces of South Asian jewelry and features creative cocktails paired with Indian-inspired small bites.

Commenters admire the moody, literary atmosphere that appeals to fans of Charles Bukowski, giving special praise to the 'Phantom Rickshaw' cocktail experience. However, some patrons express frustration that the speakeasy's secrecy is being compromised online, making it harder to get in.
