This place is super chill...hah. Great experience and great photo opportunities. They give you a very warm coat but the gloves are a little cheap. Would def go back again. Strong cocktails! Mmmm🍹

Brand new and just in time for this summer's heat wave, this is the ultimate spot to cool down (and warm back up after a few drinks). You can find the bar inside of the Hilton.

It's a fun one time experience. It's not a comfortable place to hang out and drink for hours. So, grab a signature cocktail and observe the ice sculptures to waste some time.

$20 entry fee, plus $5 for socks. Expect to stay less than an hour and make sure you bring warm clothes, as your legs will be exposed. Pictures cost $20 too!

It is worth the $20 admission for the overall experience. Drinks are fairly pricey and it gets cold after a while, so you will only want to be here for a few vodkas. Good music.

Super tourist trap and the drinks resemble something a 6th grader would make (sweet and sour/ margarita mix to the extreme!). But way fun to drink vodka from an ice glass. Wish they had an ice luge.

Not much to do once you are in so you won't stay long but it is a fun experience especially if you go early on a week night when there's not many there. Save $$-pics for spec occasion only.

The glasses and the tables are also made of ice. The bar is located inside the NY Hilton in Midtown West, open as of July 6!

Minus 5 is amazing. Try the drink Frozen A$$ets and definitely make use of the ice luge!

If you are expecting it to be a Russian Ice Bar it is not one. However, this place is wonderful and a must for anyone who has not been!

Worth the visit, even if it is kinda gimmicky. While I don't remember exactly what I had, the drink was delicious!

Definitely a novelty more than anything. A lot closer than Vegas though. Worth at least one trip.

No cell phones and other electronic devices allowed inside, in other words no photos allowed. There is, however, a "professional" photographer on site - very pricey: $20/photo.

There's a lovely living room where you can sit with a lot of friends!!!

“The house specialties, such as the Snowflake and the Iceman, taste like sugar, or maybe a loud, sugary color, with a splash of antifreeze. But you’re having an adventure.” Read more

Expensive and gimmicky. It certainly is unique. At least the drinks are strong.

Very coooool
Francis UdlerAugust 30, 2013
Not my thing. Froze in under 15min and was ready to leave. It is pretty in side but not worth it in my opinion.
Brandon McNeilOctober 13, 2013
Hold your "glass" with two hands.
Dan CharlesJuly 17, 2013
Fun atmosphere but very small venue and overpriced.
