Formerly known as the Absolut Ice Bar, it is located in the heart of London. Famous around the world for keeping the temperature at a chilly minus five degrees it’s fully furnished with ice structures and furniture made from ice from the Thorne River in Sweden but be sure to be kept cosy warm in a thermal designer cape. One of the things that make the Ice Bar so spectacular is that every six months it is completely reconstructed and redesigned so be prepared for a spectacular sight.
