All alcohol is prohibited in the US, but Abyssinia is one of the places where you can get it anyway. Sure, the coppers know about it, but they’re paid to turn a blind eye. After all, it’s just a club where people go to have fun, drink, listen to some music, gamble or take in a show. It’s not like people are getting hurt or killed (usually). The security’s tight, to make sure no one’s packing any heat. Perhaps that’s why the mobsters consider it neutral grounds, a safe place for meetings and dealings?
