600 Block Speakeasy Bar

One of Universal CityWalk’s most talked-about bar experiences has returned. The 600 Block Speakeasy Bar is back inside Pat O’Brien’s at CityWalk Orlando, and this year’s version is even more dialed in. If you’re looking for a genuinely unique after-dark experience at Universal CityWalk, this one is worth seeking out — hidden door, secret password, and all.

Quick Summary

  • The 600 Block Speakeasy Bar has returned to Pat O’Brien’s at Universal CityWalk Orlando
  • First launched during last year’s Mardi Gras, now back for 2026 with upgrades
  • Entry requires a password through a true hidden door
  • Open Thursday–Sunday, 6 PM to midnight
  • Menu features Prohibition-era cocktails, small apps, plus beer and wine

The 600 Block Speakeasy Returns to CityWalk

The 600 Block Speakeasy Bar first appeared during Universal Orlando’s Mardi Gras celebration last year. It was billed as a limited-time concept, but guest response was strong enough that Universal decided to bring it back for 2026 — and they’ve upgraded the experience while they were at it.

The 2026 version leans harder into the Prohibition-era theme. The décor has been updated to feel more authentically 1920s, and the whole experience now emphasizes the secretive, underground nature that made real speakeasies so compelling in the first place. It’s a mood, and Universal has clearly committed to it.

The Hidden Door and the Password

The entrance to the 600 Block Speakeasy has been upgraded with a true hidden door — and you’ll need a password to get in. Universal is keeping the details on how to obtain the password intentionally vague (as any good speakeasy would), but reports indicate it’s not hard to figure out once you’re at Pat O’Brien’s. Keep your eyes open when you arrive and ask around — that’s all the hint you need.

The whole password-and-hidden-door setup is genuinely fun, especially if you’ve got friends or family along who don’t know what to expect. The reveal moment lands every time.

Inside the Speakeasy: Seating, Views, and the Menu

Once you’re inside, the 600 Block offers both indoor and outdoor seating, with great views of CityWalk from the second floor of Pat O’Brien’s. The outdoor area in particular is a solid spot — you get the CityWalk energy below you while being tucked into a more intimate, elevated setting.

The menu leans into the theme with era-appropriate cocktails and small appetizers, but they also offer beer, wine, and a traditional open bar for anyone who wants to keep it simple. You’re not locked into 1920s-only drinks if that’s not your thing — the speakeasy has options across the board.

When Is the 600 Block Speakeasy Open?

The 600 Block Speakeasy Bar is open Thursday through Sunday, from 6 PM to midnight. Availability may vary, so if you’re planning a specific evening visit, check in at Pat O’Brien’s when you arrive. It’s not a ticketed experience — just show up, find the door, and know the password.

Is It Worth Visiting?

Short answer: yes. The 600 Block Speakeasy is one of those CityWalk experiences that goes beyond just grabbing a drink. The theming is solid, the setting on the second floor of Pat O’Brien’s gives you a genuinely good view of CityWalk, and the hidden-door-and-password mechanic makes it feel like a real destination rather than just another bar.

If you’re visiting Universal Orlando on a Thursday through Sunday evening and want to end the night somewhere with a bit more character than the standard CityWalk options, the 600 Block Speakeasy at Pat O’Brien’s is worth seeking out. Find the door, know the password, and enjoy a well-made cocktail with some of the best views on the strip.

I’m no stranger to Disney planning, as a Disneyland magic key holder and DVC member. I’m the person people ask for trip planning advice. But I had never been on a Disney cruise, and had heard great about Nate and decided to reach out. I’m so glad I did because we could not have been happier with our experience. His tips and insights were incredibly helpful, and he was incredibly responsive any time we had a question. Who do the Disney experts turn to when they need help? Nate, that’s who. We’ll definitely be using him again.

Our experience working with Nate as our Disney vacation planner was exceptional. He was responsive and thorough. He gave us insights that made the trip go much more smoothly. We were able to really relax and focus on quality time as a family and have so much fun doing it! I will definitely reach out for any future trips.

Could not have wanted or expected more from Nate, our Distrips and More agent as we planned our 2025 Disney World trip. Nate was VERY responsive to emails and texts and more than willing to do whatever he could to guide us and answer our questions. On several occasions I emailed him over the weekend not expecting a response until Monday but each time he responded before the weekend was over. He even participated in a Zoom session with our group of five seniors as we planned our trip. He also helped us at the 11th hour when we added a family member to our travel group less than a month before our trip. Without a doubt, I will reach out to Nate when I'm ready to plan my next trip to Disney World!

We are so thankful we used Nate to plan not only our first Disney trip, but also our second. He made the process so easy for us, especially for us since it was our first time going. There was a lot to consider and many decisions to make, such as where to stay, when to go, and what to experience. Nate really helped us narrow down what we wanted to do overall, but he didn’t stop there. He provided detailed guides to help us navigate the airport and find our transportation to the resort, as well as a guide to explore the resorts and make sure we saw the best Christmas decorations. One of the many amazing things he also did was set up our dinner reservations for us. This saved us so much stress and allowed us to get some of our top choices. From the moment we landed in Orlando to the moment we headed back home, he made sure everything went smoothly. You truly can’t go wrong with going to him for your next trip.

Nate was absolutely the best planner I have ever had. Will most definitely be using him again. He took care of everything and kept me on track. Was so very helpful in making all the dining reservations and everything. Can't thank him enough. He made our trip completely stress free!

Nathan has been an amazing trip planner for me! So helpful and responsive. I am a very type A person -- so someone who is even more on top of their game than me -- is so so appreciated! Nathan has booked 3 trips for me (1 completed 2 pending) and it was perfection. Thanks again!

Nate has helped us with our vacation planning for the last couple of years and we couldn't be happier with his service and expertise. We've used other travel agents in the past and none of them have done as phenomenal a job to make sure every detail is taken care of as he has. Switching to Nate was one of the best decisions we've ever made. He's always quick to answer questions and works tirelessly to make sure we get everything we want from our trips. Plus, he's just a genuinely great person who is wonderful to work with. Whether you're planning a trip to Walt Disney World, Disneyland, a Disney Cruise, or any other vacation, Nate is the guy you want putting it all together! Five stars across the board!
