Tucked behind an unmarked door on a quiet Salina street, M1918 isn’t just a cocktail bar — it’s a place where the past lingers in the air, where secrets slip between the cracks of jazz melodies, and where every sip tells a story.
But remember: discretion is part of the charm—and reservations are required.
After The Great War, a soldier returned home carrying more than memories. In his pack was a Browning Automatic Rifle, Model 1918. When Prohibition hit, he traded firepower for bourbon and built a secret speakeasy beneath the streets of Salina.
M1918 quickly became legend — a hideout for outlaws, whispered about in the same breath as Capone, Bonnie, and Clyde. Behind its hidden doors flowed forged papers, strong drinks, and stronger company.
Today, M1918 honors that legacy with low lights, hand-crafted cocktails, and a spirit that still bends the rules.
Step inside — and drink in the stories and secrets.
