Questions/Answers
Overview
Questions and answers

Is this a good place to celebrate an adult birthday? Wondering if Codex serves birthday cake or some such thing.

We have a dessert menu and we can put a candle in whichever dessert you choose.

Are you handicap accessible?

It has access

Are kids allowed

Kids are allowed with their parent or guardian before 9pm for dinner, but may only sit in the lounge. After 9pm it is strictly 21+. Though please be advised that the bathrooms have inappropriate photos.

What movie are they playing this Wed. Night?

I believe it's a double feature... I walked with a zombie and body snatcher

Where do you get the library card for codex?

Your id is your library card.

Is codex family friendly? My wife and I have been there once by ourselves.

I feel it's really an adult atmosphere

Do you serve WhittlePig?

Yes, we serve the WhistlePig 10 Year Straight Rye.

How fo you get yo access the private dungeon area?

There isn't a dungeon. Just a library and bar

What's the password?

There is none. Bring a library card if you have one plus your driver license.

My previous question was deleted.? Not sure why. I just wanted to reply back to your reply. We have been there 8-10 times, not once was asked for ID, and when age is obvious, it's just silly and annoying

We are sorry you feel that way, but unfortunately it's a strict policy that we enforce. Not sure why you weren't carded previous times and we apologize for the confusion between visits. We will have to look into why someone wasn't enforcing our policy during your other visits.

Love love love this place!! I've only been for drinks so I can't comment on anything food related but their cocktails are well very well crafted and delicious. The staff is always friendly and extremely knowledgeable. There are so many little details with the decor, the music and the attire worn by the staff that really makes this one of the coolest bars I've ever been to. So glad I found this little gem and I'll definitely be back for more!

Good cocktails. Figuring out where the entrance is takes big brain thoughts. Crowd is mixed but younger. Seems like a fun place.

Went to CodeX for the first time this past week. It exceeded my expectations! The atmosphere is cozy and very romantic. The menu was not overwhelming, which is perfect for a venue such as this. Now the staff....I have been in customer service for 30 years and you have 5 star staff. You made my evening that much more special!

The atmosphere, drinks, and staff are beyond amazing!! Unfortunately, I hope they work on their menu. I don’t recommend risotto, nor the steak oscar. For a small menu I wish they had put more into it. Not sure if it was just those two times, but the rest makes it worth it to try again.

Oh wow.But seriously you do NOT want to go here. They definitely did not have the most amazing bartender in town.Dont mind the bookcase on you way in, it totally belongs there. A trip in the elevator is always fun😉

Wish I never would've went. Not sure what was going on but service was terrible and food was subpar. Edit: I'm not calling Dottie because she was there and is aware of the terrible service already. Ask her...

Nashua needed a fun spot like this and quite honestly just another slightly more adult atmosphere to drink and go to the bathroom(for real take the time....not too much time to check out the facilities there) in. Food sounds better than what you will get on your plate but if you stick to the apps and liquor you wont he disappointed. Fairly priced. Cool date spot.

Lucky, the bartender, is AMAZING. So personable and knowledgeable about drinks. The atmosphere is really cool (who doesn't like hidden doors???) and the food is unique. As a history nerd and an avid reader it was literally my dream bar. Would 100% recommend.

I've been here numerous times with my girlfriend and other friends. I always rave about this place. Awesome food and incredible drinks. The whole environment and feel is so much fun. From the ragtime piano to the blacked out windows. I won't spoil too much......just don't forget your library pass. 😜

CodeX was everything I had hoped my first speakeasy would be. It was simultaneously dark and private on the perimeter, but festive with a beautiful bar and Christmas tree. Definitely a place I would bring a secret lover if I only had one. The Manhattan was nice and strong, but next time I'll try some of their special cocktails. The burger which was huge and delicious. Highly recommended.

A small restaurant and bar with a Prohibition-era speakeasy theme and setting with a library reading lounge theme and a "secret" entrance hidden behind a bookshelf. Once you presented your "library card" to the librarian at the front reading area, you entered an appropriately dimly lit restaraunt lounge, like a real speakeasy. The music was appropriate for the era and the staff was dressed in appropriate attire for the time. Specialty drinks as well as top shelf spirits were the order of the night and the food is unique to the locale. A great place for a guy to bring his doll for a night out. Please remember to thank the librarian for a wonderful selection of "reading material". "Tell no one you were here...".

Hidden secret speakeasy restaurant/bar right in downtown Nashua. Nashua's hidden treasure. From the moment you walk through the hidden door that is a bookcase and they ask to see your "library card", the music and the entire theme takes you back to prohibition era of the 1920s. Blown away by the experience, definitely worth a visit!

Drinks were obviously good, but the food was too! Sometimes in spots like this I've noticed that so much attention goes to the decor and drinks and ambiance that the food is not given much attention. Would definitely go again!

Nice intimate place to meet with friends and have a drink. The speakeasy concept is awesome and service is attentive and friendly. It is fun to go with newbies and let them guess which building codex is located at, and how to get in.. You won't get any spoilers from me. Enjoy the hunt..

Best cocktail bar in Nashua. Great ambiance, decor, and staff, and very skilled bartenders with an excellent house drink menu. Runs a wait list when full, so you'll never be overcrowded or arrive to find no table. Live ragtime pianist on Fridays. Drinks tend toward the pricier side, but the quality and the general atmosphere of the place is well worth the extra. Great place to surprise guests or dates with!

Such a fun and cosy place! It is great for group events (definitely call way ahead!) and also a cool place to take a date or go date night. The food menu and drink menu changes often, so if you like something dont get too attached! Some nights there is live piano music playing ragtime and prohibition era songs.

What a cool place! Went on a Saturday night and sat at the bar with a friend for a couple of hours. The speakeasy library atmosphere was so interesting- books everywhere, low lighting, piano player. There were a lot amount of people there, but it wasn't too loud to have a conversation. Bartender was friendly and attentive. Drinks were very delicious. We shared the "Have your cake" dessert spread, which was a lot of food, but so, so tasty. The coffee creme brulee was particularly tasty. Will definitely be coming back!

In the tradition of the classic prohibition-era speakeasy, CodeX offers meticulously made original cocktails in an amazing space. From the disguised entry, to the antique furniture, to early recordings from the 20s-30s, CodeX tailors an experience unlike any other in Nashua. Come for the cocktails, but be sure to enjoy top-notch offerings from the kitchen as well. Amazing, personal service rounds out this not-be-missed gem of the Gate City. Enjoy the library and say hi Avery when you go.

Such a cool and unique speakeasy setting with classic prohibition drinks and amazing bar food. Really nice people. My only complaint is that they don't have any "girly" drinks on the menu. But not that they can't make you one if asked!

Super cool place allows you to travel back in time to the roaring 20's and experience what prohibition bars would be like. The staff is very friendly and informative. Drinks are unique and delicious but on the pricey side for Nashua and you can't go wrong with their poutine.

Great for private parties! I held my dad and uncle’s Surprise 50th Birthday Party here and it was awesome! The venue is decorated so well, with many excellent details that made it easy for us to have a Roaring 20’s style party without having to really bring anything other than some balloons and cake! Their food was delicious and the cocktails were great! Manager/Craft Bartender Chris was a great contact and I appreciate him greatly for helping make this party happen!
