Prison Cocktail Bar Manchester
Previously undiscovered, in the heart of Manchester now lies Alcotraz: Cell Block Three-Four, a secret home to a speakeasy prison. Successfully smuggle liquor behind bars and get it to the hands of the longest-serving inmates to enjoy delicious cocktails for you and your gang.
What to Expect
Alcotraz Cell Block Three-Four promises to be one of the most unique cocktail bars in Manchester.
Once convicted, inmates are taken into an exciting world of mischief as they are instructed by a notorious bootlegging gang on the inside to smuggle-in liquor to be used to make delicious, bespoke cocktails. You won’t find a set menu of drinks here…after all, it is prison!
The “serving” inmates will deliver a range of tailored cocktails every night based on the liquor you smuggle in and your tastes. As new inmates, expect to see your contraband liquor combined with liqueurs, bitters and hominid syrups to make bespoke, contemporary and classic cocktails perfect for your time behind bars.
Be as creative as you can with your attempts to smuggle-in liquor. Alternatively, the crooked Guards are on your side and have a system for hiding contraband. Just make sure The Warden doesn’t catch you.
Manchester done differently
There’s certainly no shortage of bars or places to drink in the Northern capital, which is why Alcotraz stands out from the crowd. Our skilled and highly trained mixologists can make a mean cocktail (or mocktail!) while our professional actors work hard to immerse you fully in this world behind bars.
You won’t just take your seats at a table in some crowded bar; our impressive sets are highly detailed replicate jail cells, and you’ll be on set, in character in your very own jumpsuit. And from the second you enter, everyone you see within Alcotraz is a professional actor, dedicated to bringing you the best immersive experience possible with truly amazing entertainment. No two nights here are the same, and the storylines will play out with you as our main characters.
Whether you want to get fully involved and plot to take down the Warden, or you simply want to sit in your cell and watch the show play out, there’s something for everyone at Alcotraz! For hen parties with a difference, a weird and wonderful date night, a far-from-boring work night out, or a private hire – your cell and jumpsuit awaits.
