(4/5) Minus5 Ice Experience is definitely worth checking out if you're looking for something different in Las Vegas. I almost consider it a hidden gem or a speakeasy-style experience. Everything inside is made of ice--even the tables and the cups you drink from--which makes for a fun and unique atmosphere. We paid $49 per person, which included admission, two drinks, a jacket, and gloves. They also offer other package options depending on how many drinks you want. At roughly $24 per drink, it's on the expensive side because my first drink wasn't full in the cup (see photo) and was weak....but you're really paying for the overall experience rather than just the cocktails. The drinks were decent--not bad, but nothing I'd specifically come back for. The real highlight is stepping into the frozen bar, taking photos, and enjoying the atmosphere. The staff was friendly, the vibe was great, and everything was well organized. If you're in Vegas and want a fun break from the casinos and the heat, Minus5 is worth visiting at least once. Just go in knowing you're paying for the experience more than the drinks.

My wife and I have a great experience at minus5. All of the employees were helpful and friendly, and the drinks were actually pretty good. I did have one experience of my ice "glass" coming apart at the bottom, causing my old fashioned to dump all over my leg. But the bartender took care of it and fixed me up another one. My only complaint would be the price to get in. It's not that it's too high (I'd pay more to escape the Vegas heat on certain days), but I do feel a drink of choice should be included in the price. Just my two cents. Overall, it was a "cool" experience. Not sure we'd do it again, but it's certainly worth experiencing at least once. Especially on a particularly hot day.

This was a very unique experience, and I'm really glad I gave it a try. I'm definitely not a fan of the cold, but I had an out-of-town guest who wanted to check it out. As a local, I don't spend much time on the Strip, but I've had a lot of visitors this year, which has given me the chance to experience places I normally wouldn't. I was genuinely surprised by how much detail went into the design of the Icebar. The ice sculptures and overall craftsmanship were impressive, and there were plenty of great photo opportunities throughout. The atmosphere was fun, lively, and perfect for groups looking for something different. The staff explained everything in great detail and were very nice. Even though the freezing temperatures aren't my thing, I ended up having a great time. It's definitely one of those Las Vegas experiences that's worth trying at least once, especially if you're looking for something unique.

If you're looking for one of the coolest experiences in Las Vegas--literally--the Ice Bar is an absolute must. From the moment you walk in, you're hit with sub-zero temperatures that make you forget you're in the middle of the desert. But don't worry--they've got you covered (actually). Guests are given warm coats and gloves, which makes it easy to relax and enjoy the experience without turning into an ice sculpture yourself. Speaking of ice...everything is made of it. The walls, the bar, the seats, even the glasses your drinks come in--it's like stepping into a frozen art exhibit. The glowing lights reflecting through the ice make the whole place feel surreal and perfect for photos. And the drinks? Surprisingly great. Not just a gimmick--these cocktails are well-made, strong, and fun to sip out of a literal block of ice. It adds to the experience in the best way. It's a short but unforgettable stop, perfect for cooling off and doing something totally different while in Vegas. Between the freezing temps, creative setting, and solid drinks, the Ice Bar is a chill time in every sense of the word.

I've seen places like this before never did. I think I would ever get to experience it. One of the coolest things ever literally. Walking in we upgraded to the fancy jacket so that it looked cooler for pictures and you get to keep the hat and the gloves in the ice cup it's gonna melt on you as soon as you walk outside, but that's you know neither here or there. It's pretty cool. We ordered margaritas and had a drink and it was good. It was fun but you can't stay in there too long or you get super cold... So it was fun for the 10 minutes that we were in there got some great photos and they even give you a couple of photos when you upgrade. All in all it was a great experience.

Renee C.

Very coool vibe. Loved it. The Ice in da coconut drink was the bomb. Could have had several more of these. Staff very friendly. Variety of drinks offered. Gloves and parka provided unless you upgrade, like I did. Will definitely bring friends back with me.

The IceBar was a great time! Super fun, different, and entertaining. It's called the ice Bar so of course it was freezing; however, if you dress warm and wear the provided coat they have for you, you'll be perfectly fine, unless you have a real issue with cold weather. If that's the case, you may want to sit this one out. There were a couple of free cocktail drinks included with the purchase of your ticket, but if you want something top shelf, you're looking at an additional charge. The service was great and friendly; it was overall a fun and exciting time. Check it out!

This actually made a perfect birthday gift for my friend. We had a great time. The staff is super friendly And helpful.As we entered inside we were absolutely blown away on the interior design and all the elements that were inside. I really don't wanna put too much out there because you have to experience yourself. The bartender, super friendly gave us some different ideas on drinks and popular items which we definitely indulge in. Whether you like the cold or not, this is a fun and great experience so go out and enjoy it.

Inside
David E.

Now let me tell y'all, this place is cool -- and I don't just mean hip, I mean downright chilly! We showed up dressed for a nice fall day in Vegas and got greeted with a parka and some gloves like we were fixin' to trek across the Arctic. Once suited up, we stepped into what felt like the North Pole smack dab in the middle of the desert. Finding the place felt a bit like playin' explorer -- we navigated the streets of Vegas like Christopher Columbus, lookin' for a frozen oasis. And wouldn't you know it, we finally found it! Inside, the bartender welcomed us with a drink served in a glass carved straight from a block of ice. Mine was filled with some good ole Coca-Cola -- I'm pretty sure Bear Bryant himself would've approved. Only thing missin' was a bag of Frito Lays... though in here, I reckon they'd be called ice chips. The whole spot is as unique as it gets -- ice chairs, ice walls, ice everything. It's colder than a well digger's handshake, so don't expect to hang out too long unless you're part penguin. We managed about 30 minutes before our southern blood started hollerin' for a heater. The staff was friendly as could be, and they'll even make you feel young again when they ask to check your ID -- yes sir, even the AARP members get carded here! If you're wanderin' the Strip and need a break from that desert heat, stop by minus5 ICEBAR. It's the coolest experience in Vegas -- literally.

Ice Bar Area

Minus5 Ice Bar was a cool experience! We booked the 8pm-10pm time and everything was made out of ice. There was modern music playing and it was definitely chilly so I recommend wearing pants. They only provided you with a parka and gloves which can get damp easily if you like nursing your drink like me. We got the "coolest experience" which included two drinks. I have never had an old fashioned before nor did I enjoy bourbon but I was curious to see a sweet bourbon on the menu and asked the bartender about it. She said I probably would not like it but kindly offered a sample for me to try and she was right I did not enjoy it. She offered to sweeten it with simple syrup but that still did not work for me so I opted for the frozen berries and the cool espresso drink which were both delicious. We took some fun photos with the ice decor and there was also a photographer who snapped pictures you could purchase. The only downside was that you do not get to see the photos until after you leave the bar and return your parka but we ended up buying four that looked amazing. The photographer even noticed my gloves were soaking wet after one of the photos and brought me a fresh pair which I thought was very attentive and sweet. Overall the staff was welcoming and made the whole experience enjoyable. I would definitely return and bring an even bigger group next time since it would be such a fun and unique spot to enjoy together.

Frosted Berries
Katie R.

This was a fun and unique experience that you'd expect to find in Vegas! My friends and I did the basic experience and they provided us a parka and gloves. Everything inside including the walls and seating is made out of ice. It was fun to look around and take pictures. An employee came and took photos with her camera and we purchased a digital copy for one for $8. The bartender was also super nice and the drinks were delicious and refreshingly cool in the ice cups. Frosted Berries was my favorite. We spent about 30ish minutes inside and then left since it's a freezer in there!

Denise W.

It's a gimic thing, but we had to try it. I got a Groupon for two, and then we purchased drinks inside. We only stayed for approximately 30 minutes. Even though we had gloves, our hands were freezing as we kept having to remove the gloves to take pictures. LOL! The drinks are sugary and priced around $14 per drink.

Mary H.

Along our walk in the resort we saw they had an Ice Bar and decided to head over there. We paid our entrance fee and they suited us up in thick coats and gloves and went in. Such a unique bar and 100% recommend. So fun!

Ask the Community - minus5 ICEBAR

What is the age limit? I've been here before but without my kids.

Kids 7-up are welcome to visit this ice bar

Which location do you recommend to visit if I have time to visit only one?

The LINQ property has Dreambox360 attached and is a beautiful bar. Great value and fun.

How much is it to rent a coat?

all ticket packages come with a parka so at least $24 at the lowest ticket tier

Do you have nonalcohlic drinks?

Yes, we have mocktails and soda, water, etc.

Do they have BEER, or just alcohol?

Inside the ICEBAR we specialize in Vodka-based cocktails but also offer a full bar and expert bartenders that will happily concoct your perfect drink! We also have a variety of non-alcoholic ‘Mock-tails’ available.

What is the average amount of time people stay in? I'm wanting to book the 5pm slot and then make a 7:00 reservation for a different tour and I'm wondering if I would be cutting the times to close.

I think half an hour is more than enough time.

I'm planning on coming here next weekend, but trying to decided which location is best. Do they all look pretty much the same and offer the same things?

The one in the mall is smaller. I would go to the one at the Linq. Pay extra for the fur coat because it looks better in photos! The drinks were actually really good.

Are they serving alcohol drinks?

Absolutely! Depending on the ticket you get, it will include a certain number of drinks and you can always purchase more. Definitely a cool experience.

How far in advanced should I buy tickets?

Recommend a minimum of 72 hours. But you can purchase as far in advance as you wish. Just check the events calendar to ensure there isn't a closure for the dates you are interested in.
