Okay, so many good photo opportunities here, I'm sorry I'm not sorry for all of them I'm about to share!
SO MUCH FUN! I have lived in Orlando, Florida for over five years now and I actually never thought I would go to the Ice Bar, but I am so glad I did!!
I am one of those people who are literally ALWAYS COLD, and drive around the state of Florida with my heated seats on regularly, etc.. so you can see why I heard of this place initially and thought, no way. BUT - my boyfriend surprised me with a whole day on Valentine's Day, and we finished the evening here with a VIP experience that was so much fun we didn't stop smiling and taking photos all night.
Now again, I was here for Valentine's Day so I'm not sure what it's like regularly but if you're planning to go somewhere for an occasion, this place was a win! There were levels of the VIP package, not sure what all of the differences were other than different tiers of champagne - we got two roses, two cocktails each, a bottle of Moet, 1 entree each, plus a charcuterie board and entry into the Ice Bar until close.
I included photos of our food which you can't see very well because of the lights, but the flatbread was amazing and the beef skewers were fabulous, the charcuterie board had delicious little cheese bites but otherwise we don't eat pork so it was a flop (not their fault!).
The drinks were SO COOL! So gorgeous and fun, from sprinkled rims to flaming fruit.. but I will say, lacking on the liquor. Had to say it. They're pricey for the lack of alcohol you taste or feel like you're drinking, but enjoyable (and photo-able) non-the-less!
The Ice Bar itself - wow. Mind blowing fun, unique, beautiful and other worldly. You're bundled up in a nice big fluffy fur coat of your choice (I chose mine with hoods) so as long as you wear pants and long sleeves and closed toe shoes, you should be fine. Like I said, I'm anemic and freezing every second of my life, that's what I wore (did NOT have a heads up we were going here) and I was actually okay! They give you gloves as well! Don't get me wrong.. you're literally in a freezer, drinking from ice cube cups and sitting on ice cube furniture.. you're cold.. but it IS bearable.
Overall - so, so, so much fun. We had such a fantastic time and I would highly recommend it for a special occasion!!
