Just wanted to say a big thanks from all at Time Out for last night, it was brilliant! We would be delighted to work with the ABSOLUT ICEBAR LONDON again.

Time Out

We had such a great evening, it was definitely a unique experience seeing the ABSOLUT ICEBAR, never seen anything like it.

We loved the factory idea, very innovative! Will definitely be coming back.

An experience everyone must have.

BBC Lonely Planet Magazine

Whatever its secret, ABSOLUT ICEBAR LONDON is certainly one of the most sociable, friendly and glamorous bars in Central London.

Guest Feedback

I would just like to say a huge thank you for such an amazing evening my girlfriend and I had last Saturday night. The restaurant and icebar was so much better than what we both imagined, excellent service both restaurant and bar, just outstanding food in the restaurant, so much selection of cocktails too, however I did take a liking to the apple mojito!! What really topped off the evening for us, was the reservation of the bar table after we finished our food and when we went out for cigarettes, then one of the managers I believe allowed us to queue jump for the icebar because we had been such loyal customers. I will be highly recommending this to anyone who takes a trip to London, definitely something you can't miss. Thank you again and hopefully see you all again.

Mr Paul McCarthy & Miss Natassja Smith

Thank you for the reservation. Me and my girlfriend had a great time and we would definitely recommend it to others.

I just wanted to say well done for the New Years Eve event last night. Right from the start with the friendly door staff (pretty rare in itself these days!) and great 'hosts' with genuinely good food all night, we all had a great time. The evening had a brilliant atmosphere and it really felt that you had put a lot of thought and effort into the evening which made all the difference. So thanks for a great evening and we will definitely be coming back again soon. Happy New Year to all your staff and organisers.

Rob Wickham

We visited your restaurant on Saturday 12th September at 7.45pm and I would just like to thank you for a most enjoyable evening. The atmosphere was great and the food out of this world - I cannot honestly remember the last time I enjoyed my food so much. I would also like to say a very special thank you to Tina - she made sure that our evening was extra special just by ensuring that we were ok and had everything we wanted. A bid thank you to all - especially Tina and the chefs - and we cannot wait to go back!

Sandra Thorpe

Just a quick note to say how much we enjoyed our visit to your restaurant and bar on Saturday night. The food and service was excellent, and the bar experience was awesome. We were celebrating my sons 21st birthday and he said it was a wonderful way to remember it. We got some great pictures. Thank you very much, and we will be recommending a visit to our friends Regards

Geoff Mabbott

First of all thank you to all of your staff for making it such a fabulous night out. Special thanks to Rob behind the bar (ice) he was absolutely brilliant - I would guess a very highly valued member of your staff. Thanks to all of the people in the office who had all the time in the world for me when I was making all the arrangements. Everyone really enjoyed the Ice bar. The Restaurant staff could not do enough for us. The food was lovely although, The prawns and the beef were brilliant. The chips were the best we have ever eaten. I would definitely come back - and recommend it to others, in fact I am lucky enough to be going to the Ice Hotel in February, so it was a fabulous taster for that. Thanks once again to you all.

Fiona Hendry

We had a fabulous time..a real fun time, something so different. Lovely attentive staff, we will be returning you can bet on that. However, I will not be wearing open toe sandals next time. Food great couldn't fault it...my grand daughter's 21st went well.

Dodie Devyea

I would just like to say what a fabulous experience we had on Friday night when we had dinner in the Below Zero restaurant and then went on to experience the Ice Bar. Our dinner reservation was at 19.45, we were greeted courteously and shown to our table. The food we ordered was amazing and the service and attention we received was incredible. We felt completely spoilt and 'looked after' throughout the whole meal. The Ice Bar experience was also excellent, again being extremely well organised by polite and professional staff. I would be very grateful if you would pass on our thanks to all staff from Friday as we have such wonderful memories of a fabulous evening and would highly recommend the restaurant and Ice bar to our friends. Many thanks.

Jane Cole

I came to your restaurant during a night where you had live music. I wasnt expecting much, but ended up having the most amazing night in London I have ever had. The food was outstanding; the ABSOLUT ICEBAR was chilly but BRILLIANT! Your staff, however, is what made my night so enjoyable. When we came to the ABSOLUT ICEBAR we were greeted by a very wonderful and welcoming young man that was very polite and informative. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable and the music was fantastic! Before we went to see the live music and have dinner, My boyfriend and I waited to be seated we had such a lovely conversation with the very darling young American girl and she made my boyfriend and I laugh quite a bit . I never expect the kind of customer service and hospitality I received that evening. It was brilliant. All and all, the evening was just what I need to overcome the clouds hanging above my head. So thank you to the gentleman who greeted us, the ABSOLUTELY fabulous American girl, and my very handsome and knowledgeable server. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was delightful. You are very lucky to employ some of the most extraordinary people I have ever come across at a restaurant in London. Very well done, and I hope to come back soon.

Gemma

The ABSOLUT ICEBAR was a lot of fun, selection of 20 drinks from the menu and the staff very pleasant & friendly

Well done, had a fantastic time. Very impressed with all the staff members and especially the cocktails!

Craig Dixon

Absolutely the best part of our weekend in London. ABSOLUT ICEBAR is genius! Cocktails perfect.

I would to thank the staff for being helpful and friendly every time I have been to the venue and hope too see you again soon.

Scott Gosling

A big thank you for such a great time at the ice bar for my sons 18th on last Tuesday - you are a hidden jewel - great fun - we will return

Paul Reis

I am just writing to thank you and the team for the superb service I received on a recent trip to belowzero. Not only were the reception staff particularly pleasing on the eye but the food was absolutely delicious and I must send my regards to the chef, particularly in regards to the reindeer - which is a delicacy I had never experienced before! The cocktails served through out the meal were some of the best I have tried in years, and the Absolut Reactor vodka within the ABSOLUT ICEBAR blew me away. All in all, the evening was most enjoyable and I hope to be making a similar visit shortly. Hope that you are keeping well,

Becky Whitman

Myself and the hen party (especially my sister, the hen!) really, really enjoyed the ABSOLUT ICEBAR- absolutely fantastic! I have to say it was one of the things I was most looking forward to during our fun filled weekend in London!

Celina

Hi I would just like to say that it was the first time I had been to the ABSOLUT ICEBAR last night and I loved it the staff are friendly and so was the atmos!!! Will defo be coming again very soon!!!

I had my 18th birthday party at the Ice Bar followed by a meal in the belowzero restaurant. I would just like to take this opportunity to say a massive thank you for a fantastic night and for the kindness and helpfulness of all your staff. The food and service was amazing and the ABSOLUT ICEBAR is an absolutely fantastic experience. I took loads of pictures and lots of friends are now asking about you and where you are, so hopefully I may have got you some more custom. Thanks once again for a fab and memorable 18th.

Elicia Leach

We came Saturday 17th January for my birthday on premium tickets and I have to say we had a fab time, what a great idea. We managed 3 cocktails each and thought they represented great value for money. We will be back though and have told all our friends about it.

Jan Edwards

We had a fantastic time/experience and the staff were very friendly

Sheila

Thank you for a great night last week. It was our first time to the ABSOLUT ICEBAR and the restaurant and we had a fabulous time. It was our anniversary and the champagne was especially nice. The service was first class and we will definitely be returning again very very soon.

Keith

My friend and I visited from Ireland on the 2nd May. We had a fabulous lunch of tasty tapas sitting outside in the sunshine. The staff were very attentive and friendly making the experience that much more enjoyable. After lunch we went into the ABSOLUT ICEBAR - Wow funky - I will certainly recommend it to my friends as a fun and different London experience. I would certainly go back!

Carol O'Reilly

My family and I had a wonderful night in your restaurant and ice bar and there is nothing that your staff could have done to improve it. It seemed to us that there were difficult circumstances on the day with some difficult customers in, yet they found time to make our visit very special indeed. I will be recommending your restaurant to friends and will probably visit again myself soon. Thanks

Amy Barringer

When we attended the ABSOLUT ICEBAR on 28th May there were 10 of us for all over the country out on a leaving party and I am speaking for all of us when I say we all really enjoyed the experience. I have personally been telling all my friends about it, recommending they go if they are ever in London and I know for definite that a few of my colleagues have done the same. So on behalf of my colleagues and I, thank you for a thoroughly unique and enjoyable experience, which is still being talked about now. Regards

Michele Wawryk

Wow, what a fantastic evening. We had the best time ever!!!!! The food was fantastic, the chef is to be complimented. Value was superb. The service was second to none. The idea is terrific.. We even arrived late due to the traffic and by the time we arrived I was so flustered, but Steve was so calm and professional and so reassuring that I soon relaxed and we all had such a great time. You made my son's 21st birthday a very memorable, thank you. I can honestly say that this was one of my best evenings ever and will definitely recommend the ice bar to everyone. We would like to know about booking our Christmas parties at the ABSOLUT ICEBAR as 3 of us own our own businesses and are very interested.

Sharron

Thanks for Wednesday night, we had a quality evening. Our waiter was superb. I didn't manage to catch his name but it was the guy with the bald head, beard and addresses everyone ‘sir' or ‘madam' he was totally on the case. Everyone was well impressed with compliments all round.

Chris Leone

Just wanted to drop you a note and let you know that everything went very well last night. All our clients loved the ABSOLUT ICEBAR, the food was very good and our staff took great care of us. Thanks a lot for helping organize this - there is a good chance I'll get back to you next year for a similar thing. Kind regards,

Andrea

The visit to ABSOLUT ICEBAR London was unique and very cool!!! My friends and I just loved it! That's why I want to there once again, this time with my husband and two sons. We are going to spend the last weekend of April in London,, and if it is possible we'd like to visit ABSOLUT ICEBAR on the evening of 25th or 26th of April. Best regards,

Anabela

Just a note to say what a fabulous fantastic night I had at belowzero. I thought the menu was great, imaginative and not over priced. The drinks (especially the reactor) did the trick and turned this OAP back into a Motown Maniac! The DJ played fantastic music and so many handsome young men who didn't mind dancing with a little white haired old lady. I can't remember everyone's names, so thanks to Nathanial and Helena, and apologies to everyone else - all the staff were very friendly and obliging. We were able to sit outside but the evening had a bit of a chill so the patio heaters were soon up and running. The cape and gloves did a marvellous job for the visit down to the ABSOLUT ICEBAR, and then rounded off with a professional photo (beats taking your own pictures any day). Spoke to quite a few other Ice Bar "novices" and all were enjoying the "novelty" and the fantastic atmosphere. THANKS AGAIN.

Penny Rehbein

Visited 2day, ad a fant-ICE-tic time, found it fascinating.

Dawn n Eileen

Just wanted to say what a thoroughly enjoyable evening we had. As suspected - we spent a little more on drinks than we had planned but we REALLY enjoyed it. Thank you again for your flexibility and co-operation.

Hardeep

Just a quick note to thank you. Katie and I had a great time on Wednesday in the Ice Bar. She sat in every seat, put her hand through every hole, felt every hand print and stroked every single block of ice. She loved the different textures and finishes. She normally does not say too much but she did not want to leave until she had done everything. I was delighted for her. She always says she likes the cold and this gave her a chance to show me how. It was a real success. Thank you.

Derek Sarath

Thank you for the reservation. Me and my girlfriend had a great time and we would definitely recommend it to others.

Andrea Weidemann

I came with a few friends on New Year's Eve and just wanted to say it was great to whoever organised it. Clearly loads of effort was made, it was a really good atmosphere without being too busy, loads of canapés coming round and no queues at the bar which is exactly what you want!

Karen

Some friends and myself spent new years eve at the ice bar. We had a great time, the food was lovely, drinks were reasonably priced, quick and really friendly service from all staff. I really enjoyed it and would definitely come back.

Dominique Sayers

Thanks - really enjoyed our time in your bar, what an unique experience! Have recommended it to a friend who is visiting later in the year.

Bev Gaffney

Thank you so much for an unforgettable experience. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit, with the whole group still talking about it and recommending it to everyone we speak to. Once again many thanks to all your team.

Jackie Geeson and Friends.

Hi and thanks. We had a great time. Both the staff and customers were really friendly. It was great fun and we have recommended to all our friends.

Julie

Thank your for your email and generous offers, I will definitely be visiting the icebar again, my first visit was so successful and your staff very friendly and welcoming, smiles all around, which made what was a surprise visit for a friend a magical experience. I have recommended the icebar to numerous people, who are all planning to visit at some point in time. Thank you again.

Sandra O'Brien

Having visited the Icebar and eaten at belowzero previously, I thought it would be a real treat to bring my mother-in-law for a visit. We arrived a little bit too early for our scheduled visit at 12.30 - as my mother in law is 75 and I'm slightly disabled we were so pleased by the attitude of your staff who not only allowed us to sit in your outside area, they even made us coffee which was most welcomed having been travelling from South Wales since 8.00 in the morning. The Icebar once again was brilliant and the meal afterwards in your Alfresco area was superb - and the service provided by the waiter (the same young man who served us coffee) was an absolute joy and made our visit even more special. My husband I travel to London regularly to visit the theatre and like to try different restaurants - but we have yet to find one as good as belowzero.

June Way

I am writing to say a huge thank you for your excellent service last Saturday. My party of 11 enjoyed their slot in the ice bar and the lunch and service which followed was first class. Please pass on my thanks to your staff for their friendly and efficient service and to the chef for such delicious food!

Maggie Bullard

Visited Belowzero restaurant and IceBar with my friends from Kazakhstan and Latvia. We spent a fantastic evening: having a delicious and exquisite dinner and absolutely extra-ordinary and memorable visit to the IceBar. The food was great, the ambience was just right and, of course, the IceBar was amazing. That was definitely a surprise for my friends and the nice memories we are all going to keep..

DI

Thank you, we all had a very enjoyable time - food and drinks both excellent!.

Linda Hoy

We thoroughly enjoyed the whole evening. Your staff were very attentive and made my son's 21st birthday a very enjoyable and successful event.  We will be recommending your bar and restaurant to our friends and associates.

Kevin Maw

Delicious food, great ambiance, fantastic service! Thank you for a great night!! We will be seeing you again.

Sara Robinson

The restaurant was lovely and the food was wonderful. The starters were particularly lovely.

Clare Gallagher

Thank you for such a lovely evening, this was our first visit to the restaurant and bar and I must say that we all enjoyed it. The food was outstanding and our waiter was very attentive and fun.

Diana Bareham

It was my daughters 21st and a surprise she had no idea where we were going. The venue was great both the Ice Bar and the restaurant and we all (even the older people in the party) had a great time. The service was great and food was fantastic. I had many discussions pre the event with your staff about the arrangements as I wanted to make this special and all were really helpful - everything went without a hitch and my daughter loved every minute of it. Please pass my thanks on to your staff they did a great job.

Kathy Osborn

We had a great time. The food was amazing and you will be glad to know I have told many friends!

Michelle Hook

The service we received in both the Icebar and belowzero was excellent.

Shelley Granger

My friends and I thoroughly enjoyed our night at the bar and restaurant on Saturday. The food was fantastic - I had prawns, lamb shank and the Mars Bar souffle, and they were all fabulous. The waiting staff were all good as well - the manager on that evening did everything he could to accommodate us, and we really do appreciate it.  Best of luck for the future, and I will definitely be returning soon!

Ali Tabari

thank you and your staff for making us feel so welcome and for making our visit to the restaurant and ice bar the highlight of our visit to London. Please express a special thank you to Judd our waiter who was very professional but at the same time very friendly and made us feel relaxed immediately we entered the restaurant.  Oh and one of our party who parties a lot in London commented that the food was better than The Ivy!! What better praise could you wish for.  So a special pat on the back to your chef please. We would certainly come again and have recommended you to our friends. Thank you again for a brilliant evening. 

Carol Carter

We had a super time thanks and your staff were very welcoming too. Have already recommended friends to visit.

Susan Wallis

I just wanted to send this email to say thank you to everyone at belowzero.  My daughter Lizzy was fortunate to choose you guys for her 21st Birthday celebrations on Saturday 26th January. Everyone was so pleasant and did everything they could to make the evening that little bit special. Totally professional - you have a great team there.

Dick Rae

To the team at belowzero,I am just writing to commend you on the amazing treatment we received when we attended belowzero and the ice bar at the start of January! we had such a gr8 time and everyone was really lovely to us!
