“City North is located north of the historic Taipei North Gate in Dadaocheng. Hidden in an old street house, Art Yard, in a back alley of the City God Temple, City North is not outside of the small city, but small, outside of the city.”
Coffee in the day, cocktails at night
In Prohibition in 1920s USA, bars went underground. The word “speakeasy” became a code word between customers and bars. Speakeasy has become a bar style, what we call a hidden bar.
In Dadaocheng there’s such a Speakeasy Bar/Café, hidden in an old building called the Art Yard; you will need to walk through several back alleys to get to the back entrance of the building, entering a short hallway and take a mysterious flight of stairs up to the second floor to get there. Everything at City North will leave you with an unforgettable memory.
