I get drawn in when I feel there is something deep and mysterious going on beneath the surface of something. - Steven Pinker
Currenltly Under Construction
Located beneath a flower boutique in Ul'dah, the aptly named Basement is home to a hidden facet in the Jewel of the Desert.Warm and inviting, the bar features a specialised menu - but only the finest ingredients to mix most any drink, depending on staff. You're welcome to one of the few barstools, or the nearby seating.Mateus, Goblet, Ward 25 Plot 30
(Note: Bartender reserves the right to decline off menu drink requests on a case by case basis with or without reason. (You can order off menu, but don't be difficult about it without reason.)
(The bar charges real gil for drinks, and you are given an item in exchange. Please see the Menu for more information.)

If privacy and comfort be what you seek, rest assured you will have to sacrifice neither. Open, yet still feeling close, cozy, and intimate, the seating is a welcome and inviting sight.
Private Seating

Neatly tucked away above the bar, this private seating is perfect for discussing plans and politics away from prying ears.
Recreational
Thanalan Sunset - Handrolled cigarettes containing Mistress Jesal’s own herbs; smoking these will put one in an extremely laid-back state of mind. Sometimes accompanied by a full-body warming sensation, this cigarette is best enjoyed with friends.-Sora - A small, brightly coloured tablet made mostly of an extract from the cactuar flower; this will give you mild feelings of euphoria, and also send your pleasure receptors into overdrive. Even just the slightest touch will send shivers down to one’s toes. (Caution: Causes mild dehydration, and should be taken along with several glasses of water.)-Combust - This warming mixture, crafted with clary sage, coneflower, and rue will heal you just as well as it bolsters you. When imbibed, it will imbue the body with a sweet little buzzing sensation that sets the blood to singing. It induces a subtle high, but will make the body hot to the touch. Two doses per bottle. (Body hot, buzzy feeling, like drinking a shot of extremely strong whiskey.) (An amber colour, nearly glittering where it sits. It smells of whiskey, and of ginger. It tastes much like a stiff drink would, though the effects are more long lasting and nearly instantaneous.) (Provided by Crescent Tree Apothecary, owned by Serin and Yesui Avyeroz.)-Candies of various flavours, imbued with the same extract prevalent in Thanalan Sunset. Types of candies include: chocolates, soft chews, and hard candies with a soft center. Candy Flavours include: "Would I Lime to You"; "Raspberry Nice"; "Banana Hammock". Chocolates available in dark and milk.
