We were lucky to jump in to one of the night sessions earlier in the year, after almost missing out. On arrival we had to wait, but not for very long because we were able to buy tickets for a shorter session because someone else didn’t stay for the length of their session (personally, I believe we should have received a discount for the shorter session).
We didn’t get the full experience but we didn’t need it - it’s a survival of the fittest and you can’t stand or sit still in this bar for long ❄️⛄️🧊 There are two cocktails included and the bar is beautifully set up with colourful changing lights. The music is upbeat to keep you moving, and when it’s quiet and there aren’t many others in the space it’s a magical experience to enjoy the different ice sculptures. We loved the atmosphere and experience! The ice glasses are very unique but also very cold - you’ll definitely need to wear the gloves they give you to keep a hold of them. Hold them tight!
Such a cool and unique experience! You get 1 hour in the bar but it was so cold I left in 15 mins 🥶 They provide you with jackets and gloves. Cocktails and mocktails are served in ice glasses which you get to smash at before you leave. The ice sculptures are very details and are changed every so often 🤩
We had a fun evening in the bar! It was definitely cold but we got some warm coats and gloves. There were several cocktails that you could choose from, and also mocktails and shot options. Staff was friendly and helpful
Fantastic experience with such amazing staff! The Ice Bar is a MUST try when in Queenstown! They have amazing cocktails in addition to their unique venue and atmosphere.
Keep in mind: the venue is also quite small in size and you have one hour inside :)
also buy your tickets in advance!!
Minus 5 ICE BAR was fun. Good experience and drinks were very nice.
Good selection of drinks. A few kids were running around so be prepared for all ages.
Fun to give it a try.
This was a fantastic experience, wrap up warm because it is COLD (of course!) very fun taking a shot out of the luge! But Kayla made the experience for us - such a great host!
What a fun experience! We are so grateful that the bar provides additional jackets and gloves for the experience (You're gonna need it!). The drinks were served in ice glass and we thought it was super funky hahaha. The staff there were super fun and friendly and they really liven up our experience! I also really love the music choice haha. Would love to come back again. Thank you everyone!
A modern day Eskimo bar. Enjoy some cocktails and mocktails in this frozen bar filled with hand crafted ice sculptures and unique ambiance. Your drink is served in a custom made ice glass which you get to thrash at the end. A warm jacket and gloves are provided on entry. Staff are friendly. Afternoons are a perfect time if you want to take the kids. Spaces are limited so best to book beforehand.
The place is so amazing that I recommend everyone to visit atleast once. The drinks were awesome. There was a limited crowd so we did enjoy ourselves to the most. Mesmerising experience to be here. Staff is very polite and cooperative.
Very rude and mean staff, kindly mentioned first they don’t accept digital ID and racist on people who is not from local, I use my Australian driver license go everywhere in New Zealand and rentals, but this shop, their staff not accepting that? We use the same ID in any bar in the town during these days. No offense, but will not recommend tourist go this bar, it’s 100% not friendly and it’s no refund even is their fault and considering not allowing us in. THANKS FOR THEM TO RUINED MY TRIP IN QUEENSTOWN.
