It’s not hard to find a bar in Madison. Odds are, you’re probably not far from one now. But one of Madison’s most hotly anticipated new bars won’t have any flashing neon alcohol signs. In fact, it won’t have any signs at all. Veil and Vault is a new speakeasy set to open early next year from the owners of Nitro Beverage Lounge. Today, host Bianca Martin chats with co-owner Courtney McCarty about what folks can expect from the new concept and what she’s keeping secret (for now).

🥕 Join us every Thursday as we explore Madison's food culture, from the brewers and bakers to the chefs and cheesemakers.
