So my boyfriend and I got the Groupon offer to try this place out since my brother and his girlfriend had purchased one already. It was $26 for two people with one digital download of a picture we take inside the bar.
We found out that we weren't able to take our phones or any cameras inside since that was their ploy in getting people to buy the pictures. So they had us put our stuff in lockers. We were each given a jacket and gloves to wear and were given instructions on how to handle our drinks due to the cups being made out of glass. Our drink was the bar favorite, but tasted awful to me cause it was straight up alcohol. I really liked the one my brother got, but can't remember what it was other than it was fruity and to my liking.
We went inside and it was pretty cool, but smaller than I thought it would be. There was the name of the bar fixed onto the wall in ice. The benches were made of ice covered with fake fur and the high tables scattered around and bar area in the corner of this L-shaped bar were made of ice as well. We got two drinks in total and had to make sure to put our drinks down on the coasters provided so it doesn't slip off the table.
There were two ice chandeliers, a humpback whale, Native American designs that included a real fish in the ice, and some other neat designs. There was only one photographer and she took our pictures as a group at the high table and then as couples under the bar name sign. It gets pretty loud in there depending how many groups are inside and unfortunately, even though I love my Filipino peeps, there was a group of them being really loud and rowdy. They ended up doing a four way shot on a long ski twice and having their own thing in the corner. We literally were in there for about probably less than 30 minutes.
We later found out that they switched out the designs every couple of months or so when we chose our digital pictures outside. We got to keep our gloves if we wanted to and returned our jackets.
It was overall a good experience to do once, but not worth that money with the Groupon. It would have been nice to let us take more pictures since that would have been a great way to get some promotions of their bar out there. But the way it is now, it is not as exciting as it could be.
