Despite the difficulties – and violence – of the 1920s in America, there’s something so enticing about this time period. Perhaps it’s the amazing clothes, perhaps the glamour of Gatsby-esque parties – whatever it is, we can’t resist ’20s themed parties, outfits, or, best of all, speakeasies. Chances are you had no idea you could travel back in time right here in New Hampshire, at a very cool hidden bar in Nashua called Codex. Read on to learn its secrets!
Like a proper speakesy, Codex is hidden. From the outside, you’ll assume it’s just another antique store.
