It's a well known fact that London has A LOT to offer. From visiting Her Majesty the Queen to riding the London Eye - sight-seeing can be thirsty work and what better way to refresh than at Ice Bar London?
So, First of all..
What is Ice Bar London?
The ice bar is a champagne cocktail bar with a temperature of -5°C and filled with fascinating ice sculptures.
All of the sculptures are carved from ice discovered in the frozen Torne River in Jukkasjärvi, Northern Sweden.
You will notice during your visit that the sculptures have a theme, during our visit in summer 2017 the theme was 'Wild in the City' which can be seen in the video below. The theme changes once per year when they bring in new designs.
The ticket price depends on the level of services you wish to experience - a ticket with a restaurant reservation or champagne session will cost around £10 (GBP) MORE than a standard entry ticket.
The standard entry ticket is £14 (GBP) with a slight discount if pre-booked online and includes 1 spirit based cocktail in your own ice glass plus thermal protective cape with gloves to keep you warm.
Your standard ticket allows you entry into the bar for 40 minutes.
The ice bar is open 7 days a week all year round but opening times and prices do vary so it's worth checking their website by clicking here.
You will be given a cocktail menu once you enter the bar to choose your free drink with refills costing anywhere from £3.00 (GBP) for a non-alcoholic drink to £10.50 (GBP) for a champagne refill. I recommend;
Born To Be Wild
Absolut Vodka
Passoa
Passion Fruit Purée
Lychee Juice
Lemon Juice
And/Or
Horny Rhino
Four Roses Bourbon
Cherry Liqueur
Pineapple Juice
Lemon Juice
Sugar Syrup
The ice bar is situated on Heddon Street, just off Regent Street and is half way between Oxford Circus and Piccadilly Circus tube stations. Super easy to find if you follow Google maps.
Wrap up warm and book your tickets -
It is an awesome experience!
