About Us
Hidden in plain sight, The Farmer & The Bootlegger is Clovis’ modern-day speakeasy — a place where craftsmanship, connection, and a hint of rebellion come together. Behind dim lights and quiet doors, you’ll find handcrafted cocktails, warm conversation, and an atmosphere that feels both secret and familiar. Every pour honors the art of doing things right — even when it’s done in the shadows.
The Story
When the country went dry, the farmer and the bootlegger struck a deal that changed everything. By day, the farmer worked the land; by night, his barns and backroads became cover for something stronger. Barrels and bottles were hidden beneath crates of produce, moving quietly from field to cellar under the glow of lantern light. The bootlegger handled the rest — trading secrets, dodging checkpoints, and keeping the town’s glasses full. Together, they turned risk into reward and built a quiet empire fueled by grit and good liquor.
The Legacy
That story is what drives us. The Farmer & The Bootlegger honors the partnership that kept spirits alive when the law said otherwise. We carry their ingenuity forward with every handcrafted cocktail and every night spent behind these hidden doors. It’s more than a bar — it’s a tribute to those who worked hard, played harder, and always found a way to keep the good times pouring.
