The Franklin Mortgage & Investment Co.; Philadelphia

Hidden in a building that fronted the largest alcohol-smuggling ring in the U.S. during Prohibition, this lounge maintains a speakeasy feel. Dapper bartenders serve spot-on classics, plus tasty new inventions like the Peckinpah (mezcal, rum, lime juice and blackberry-habanero syrup). 112 S. 18th St.; 267-467-3277; thefranklinbar.com.
