A response from management
4 Star Rating: Recommended

01/26/2008 Posted by Volsteadmgr

As one of the managers from The Volstead, I wanted to personally respond to some of the back and forth that is going on in these posts. First off, let me stress how valuable all of this feedback has been. While perfection is hard to achieve, it is certainly something that the entire staff of The Volstead is striving for. Hearing reviews-both positive and negative-help us to know what we can do better. Several reviews have mentioned security. Let me stress how embarrassed I am that security is even mentioned in these posts. After hearing several negative security comments, we have let the person in question go. I do not need people to have bad experiences in any way here, particularly for something as trivial as the doorman. For everyone else out there, I would encourage you all to keep coming to The Volstead. While we may experience some growing pains as a new venue, I am very proud of the type of place this is, and more importantly, the type of place that this can be. I look forward to welcoming you all back and hopefully meeting some new faces. Ask for the citysearch “poster”... I'll buy you a drink! Thanks for your continued support and advice. We take it all to heart. Thanks!

Editor's Review

This fresh spin on the speakeasy aims to keep young professionals in midtown long after the workday has ended.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

The Extras

A DJ pumps up the volume with collegiate nostalgia (think Cream and the Beatles) and late '80s retro (Young MC) from Tuesday to Saturday.
