The Zeplin Speakeasy & Gastropub

The Zeplin is a hidden speakeasy and gastropub in downtown Spartanburg, known for craft cocktails made by its bartending team and a menu of small plates and shareables from chef Joe Clarke. The bar occupies what was the old boiler room of the historic Montgomery Building, and the decor leans into the feel of bartending's golden age.

The Zeplin takes no reservations, so arriving early is the way to get a seat. It is open Tuesday through Saturday evenings, from 5 PM until midnight. Gift cards and private events are also offered. To find it, look behind the Montgomery Building at 187 N. Church Street, beside the Zeplin mural.
