The idea of this bar is pretty nice. It definitely has a speakeasy vibe. I suggest asking one of the staff members where it is located when you arrive. It is inside the ambassador hotel down the stairs from the first floor. It is the stairs are in the same hallway as the restaurant. Once you get down the stairs, you'll see a metal door with a sign. You open the door to take you into this ante room with a big wooden door. Knock three times and they open the door for you. They do have reservations, but we went on Tuesday and it was not busy. They have a cocktail menu, but they can make you anything because they have a full service bar. They also sell some food. I opted for an old-fashioned (not on the menu). My friend got the gin fizz. Prices were very reasonable. We were going to eat afterwards, so we decided just to snack. We ended up getting the truffle fries. The Fries were good and the portion size was adequate. It did come with an aïoli, but we weren't too fond of it. We ended up getting ketchup instead. The waiter was able to give us good suggestions and was prompt. Parking is street parking nearby

So, there I was, descending into the depths of the Ambassador Hotel in Wichita, on a quest for Dockum, a speakeasy-style cocktail bar. It’s like stepping into a Prohibition-era hideout, but with fewer flappers and more people like me, wondering if they're cool enough to be there. The place is dark, like a bat’s boudoir, but cozy, with an air of mystery. It’s the kind of spot where you half expect to whisper a password to a man with a monocle. The decor is nice, though one or two pieces of wall art made me wonder if they were chosen in the dark. But let's not nitpick about aesthetics when there are cocktails to be had. Speaking of which, the cocktails here don’t just arrive; they perform. I had three, each a mini theatrical production. I mean, setting a drink on fire right at your table? It's like dinner and a show, but the dinner is liquid, and the show is pyrotechnics. The drinks were strong enough to make me consider a career in espionage, yet not so strong that I’d forget my own alias. The servers are like cocktail wizards - knowledgeable, attentive, and thankfully, not wearing pointy hats. They're the kind of people who can discuss the merits of obscure bitters and not make you feel like a culinary troglodyte. What’s truly remarkable about Dockum is that it offers a slice of upscale life in a town where your Friday night could easily become as predictable as a sitcom rerun. It’s a welcome diversion for those of us looking to escape our usual haunts without having to resort to something drastic like skydiving or, heaven forbid, a running club. Now, getting into Dockum is an adventure in itself. You must first tackle their website to make a reservation. Then, once at the hotel, you navigate to the correct elevator - because apparently, not all elevators are created equal. And finally, the pièce de résistance, you knock thrice on a door, like you're entering a wizard's lair or trying not to wake a sleeping dragon. If lost, the hotel staff are your friendly dungeon guides. Would I recommend Dockum? In a heartbeat. It's not just a bar, it’s an evening adventure. For anyone in Wichita looking for a detour from the mundane or a cocktail that might spontaneously combust, Dockum is the place! Price per person: $50–100 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4
