Welcome to 221

You have walked into Orange County’s Original

& Legendary Speakeasy.  Just a word to the wise,

the year is 1928. Please do not believe rumors to

the contrary. The US Government has inexplicably

banned the production and sale of alcohol. I am

not comfortable with this policy and believe that

the American working stiff has a right to enjoy a

libation without the very government that we fund

having any say in the matter. In return for this

great public service I am providing here, I ask one

thing; please shut your mouth about our little

operation here. We want to continue to provide

this great venue with as little as possible kicked

backed to the politicians, many of

whom are here tonight pretending to not be seen.

Gotta love the system!

Anyway, let me explain a few things:

            •  The gaming is for fun & bragging rights.

               Only an idiot would think otherwise

               The rules of the games are what the

               dealers describe. Arguing a rule or

               decision will land you on the other side

               of the curtain quickly. Make sure to

               cash in all of your chips at the cage

               before leaving. Your chip totals are

               viewable on the website daily and

               weekly on the facebook & twitter pages.

            •  Out of chips? Too bad! I have heard

               that some of our staff have tremend-

               ously soft shoulders to cry on. They

               may be of some assistance in these

               matters. You cannot buy chips how-

               ever because they are valueless.

               Believe me... I wish that you could!

            •  The cocktails are amazing and hand-

               crafted. Based on the care & love that

               goes into each drink, they may take a

               few minutes longer than you are used

               to. Be patient! They are worth the wait!

               If you want your drink faster, order a beer!

               If you want something not shown

               on this menu, just ask your server. If we

               have the ingredients, we’ll make it.

            •  I ask that you be respectful when in my

               joint. Watch your mouth. That goes for

                the broads too.

            •  We dress how you should dress. We

               play the music of our era. We hope our

               keen fashion sense rubs off on you but

               don’t feel bad if it doesn’t. We under-

               stand that many of you believe to be

               from the future. I’m not sure what the

               hell is wrong with you but please keep

               your futuristic opinions private. Do not

               waste your time requesting songs. We

               cannot accommodate them.

Thank you for reading all this stuff. You’ve just wasted

a lot of time that could’ve been spent drinking!

At least you now know the deal.

Have fun here and enjoy the journey back to a better

time. It is our honor to have you here and we hope

to see you often.

Thanks,

The Boss
