Morgan is an absolute gem! She was so sweet and made this visit so rad- this speakeasy has a wonderful ambience, I’d decorate my house like this. Thanks so much for everything! (Honestly if you’re looking for a rec, any of the signature cocktails will take you on a journey, have fun!)

Great workers. Brenda was bartendering, she so adorable, awesome and genuine that I want to visit ABQ again. Drinks I had were perfectly mixed with. Place is cozy and small, bathrooms are nice and well kept. Vibes were fun and people were open to talking and laughter.

Brandon was the bartender on a Sunday evening when i visited. He was friendly & welcoming. He played the Beatles Anthology video, which was a nice touch. The music (EZ band) was awesome. The bar has a cozy nostalgic vibe. I recommend the Smoked Old Fashioned for bourbon fans. Glad to stop by before leaving ABQ.

I don’t like to drink alcohol, but still wanted to experience the speakeasy. I wish I would’ve gotten the blonde bartenders name, but I asked her for a coffee and she didn’t question it or make it weird! She offered different flavors like coconut or hazelnut! I’m eternally grateful for her.

This place in downtown Albuquerque is a total vibe! This cozy hideaway with its black-and-white checkered walls, hums with lively chatter and exceptional service! The password entry adds a fun touch. The San Francisco Pisco punch was a revelation - perfectly blending spicy and fruity notes. For an unforgettable night, Founders is the place to be.
