1854 Cocktail Bar & Lounge is Cookeville’s first hidden speakeasy, tucked away just off the historic downtown square on North Madison Avenue. Inspired by the elegance of the Prohibition era, 1854 pairs handcrafted cocktails, inventive mocktails, and shareable small plates with a vintage atmosphere that feels unlike anywhere else in town. Named for the year Putnam County was founded, this intimate lounge has quickly become a favorite for date nights, celebrations, and evenings spent savoring expertly crafted drinks.
