So much fun and very unique! The actors were very talented. The drinks were delicious! Make sure you go to the address on Hackney where the venue is, and not where Viator tells you to go.

Fun time in prison.

Natalie_W, Jun 2025

For us we found it a little tricky to get to but that was the only downside. Had the most fun time. Excellent actors and staff. Could not fault it. The drink was yummy and the whole thing from start to finish was well thought out. 10 out of 10.

Thoroughly enjoyable!

Beverley_L, Jun 2025

Location was easy to find. The actors got into their roles from the start. Storylines good with attention to detail. Cocktails were great. The whole experience was jolly good fun and thoroughly enjoyable!

Fun in the clink

We had so much fun! The staff was great. Loved the cocktails that they made. Only thing that could be more clear is you only need one bottle of liquor for your group unless you don't drink the same spirit. We bought 4 different liquors but was overkill!

Locked up

It was ok ,but nothing really special, the meeting place stated was not where you meet. You actually meet at the venue.

Behind Bars

Emmanuel_Z, Jun 2024

Visited Alcotraz with my partner. Loved the set up. The play acting by the staff members was very entertaining. We were locked up so to speak in our cell the whole time except for a brief visit to the Warden's office. Would have been nice to interact with the other prisoners.

Nice experience
