This looks like it will be really fun place when busy and is definately different to other bars. We went early evening (with a discount voucher from 'Book Me' ) and there were only 6 of us there (including the bar man). Warm wear is provided but ski gloves would be a good idea. Potent cocktails from ice glasses and... More

It’s a tiny place and you are only allowed to stay a short time; which is fine since you do get cold. The coats they give you to wear are very worn and grubby and the boots smell. The cocktails are very small and overpriced, but tasty. The entry fee is way too much and the staff didn’t seem to... More

Hospitable and friendly staff right from the get go! We had organised a work do out so had the whole bar to ourselves apart from a couple of excellent bartenders! The cocktails are second to none in town! The staff provided great entertainment and we have some memorable photos up in the office now!

We were told this was the coolest bar in town so we went to check it out. It really was cool. it was - 8.5, even colder than advertised! The staff wrapped us up in warm clothes and took us inside. EVERYTHING was made from ice, even the glass we drank from! There was a huge ICE robot which was... More

It's rather expensive and you can only stay about 30 minutes, but it was very different to be surrounded by ice sculptures at an ice bar drinking from glasses made of ice while standing at an ice enclosed fireplace. Very unique and a great place to get some different photographs.

Rude staff mainly the blonde receptionist didnt get her name. booked online for the saturday night and got bumped for a bigger group rude eh?? made a booking the sunday night ABSOLUTELY DISAPPOINTED!! wont go back (although the tall man who took us in was pretty cute!)

If you have never done this before (like us) it was absolutely worth the 15NZ to go in for 30 minutes and be surrounded by ice. We purchase discount tickets online for this one...always trying to save a few bucks! They have one of these types of bars in Las Vegas and I highly doubt it if you will ever... More

Ok, this review is about the Below Zero Ice bar located on Searle Lane, Queenstown which my friends and I visited on the 1st Jan 2012. Overall, it was a good experience. We paid NZD28 for 4 people for entry and some more for drinks which were nice. The bar girl from England was nice, smiley and hospitable. However, the... More

The Minus 5 bar was awesome! How often do you get to a bar where everthing is ice? The cup was ice, the bar was ice, the seats were ice and the sculputres were ice. We went there in April/May 2010 when they were having the floods and the had to put the temperature up to -11 degrees as the... More
