It's the bar behind bars.
This unusual prison-themed cocktail bar has launched as England embraces the recent easing of coronavirus lockdown restrictions.
And its on the lookout for new 'inmates' to try it out.
Alcotraz Cell Block Two One Two, in Shoreditch, London, promises to be “one of the most unique cocktail bars” in the city, 2Chill reports.
Punters have to don orange jumpsuits and sit inside ‘cells’ before trying to smuggle alcohol past the warden and into the hands of the other inmates.
If they are successful, the expert inmates will create you a bespoke cocktail with their chosen spirit.
The cocktail bar, inspired by America’s most infamous prison, is tucked away behind shutters on London’s Brick Lane.
Alcotraz said: “You won’t find a set menu of drinks here - after all, it is prison!”
Alcotraz asks inmates to be as “be creative as you can with your attempts to smuggle-in liquor” – but don’t worry because the crooked prison guards are on your side and also have a system for hiding contraband.
A statement on the Alcotraz website says: “Hidden behind unassuming shutters on London’s famous Brick Lane, lies Cell Block Two One Two, a secret speakeasy prison made a little more bearable by successfully smuggling in liquor past The Warden and getting it to the longest-serving inmates.
"Line up below the metal detector and be ready to enter Cell Block Two One Two!”
Prices start at £35.99. You can book tickets now on the Alcotraz website.
Alcotraz Cell Block Two One Two is located at 212 Brick Lane, London, E1 6SA.
