Bauhaus is a craft cocktail bar occupying the lower level of the historic Hanson Building in downtown Orlando, one of the oldest structures in the city. Named in tribute to the Bauhaus design movement, which merged artistry with industrial aesthetics in the early twentieth century, the bar has preserved the original architecture and character of the building rather than renovating around it. The narrow, intimate space draws on the design principles it is named for — low lighting, original materials, and a focus on craft — with cocktails made from fresh ingredients prepared in-house. The venue connects to Hanson's Shoe Repair, a password-entry speakeasy on the upper floor of the same building, making the combined property a distinctive destination in downtown Orlando for private events and evening gatherings. The events team can be reached directly to discuss bookings.

The rooftop venue accommodates private events for groups of 10 to 45 guests, pairing the building's century-old character with an intimate, speakeasy atmosphere. Its historic brick walls and antique surroundings make it a distinctive setting for cocktail parties, small celebrations, and private gatherings.
