Fascinating. Unfortunately, we had a small child with us who got bored less than halfway through, so we left. We will absolutely go back, without children, to enjoy the whole experience. Plan on at least 3 hours if you go. Parking was $8, so plan on that as well. They do have an audio tour device for $5, will try that when we go back as well
Super great experience. I wish I was told in advance, at the box office, that there was an event going on and a section would be closed off. It affected things I didn't get to see and some people made it feel uncomfortable trying to read the walls in the bar area. I was in town, only for a little while and I would have given it 5stars otherwise.
Really great history, helps understand some older movie references and things.

Thought it would just be okay, turned out to be fantastic. I would recommend, quite interesting history, and done in a really interesting way. There are things to read, little movies, artifacts, etc. you can rent the audio tour for $5, we did not and we're still there 3 hours without staying to have a drink on the speakeasy.
Staff was very friendly. We got there at 10:30 am and it was already quite busy so be aware of that. 3 floors of winding exhibit so there is a lot to see and take in. There are lots of photographs, video, and artifacts from the time period. It was a fun experience. The speak easy was nice and the staff there were very friendly and service was excellent.
What an incredible learning experience. The staff is extremely passionate and knowledgeable about their specific area with complete timelines.
The amount of artifacts contained in this museum is simply astounding. The details that is presented with each artifact is unlike anything I have ever seen.
I highly recommend including the audio as part of your tour. Allow a minimum of 3 plus hours to take advantage of what they have to offer

This was on our list of places to visit. You definitely need to go here. This museum is very well put together and very informative. You will need a minimum of 2 hours to see everything. There is a nice gift shop as you get to the end. The staff was wonderful and they really enhanced the self guided tour. There is an elevator of you need assistance. Don't miss this place!!!
The museum experience is very enlightening and quite in depth. Definitely plan on at least 2 to 4 hours to go through most of it. Quite a bit of reading but also lots of photographs and display as well. You absolutely must go to the speakeasy and try one of their prohibition era cocktails. Decent little food selection as well. Bartenders are all dressed and quite capable.
