Berlin Icebar Tickets: 3 Drinks & Ice Glasses Included

Summary

Chill out in Berlin sipping cocktails from real ice glasses

You’ll swap your coat for one of theirs before stepping into Berlin’s Icebar—where even your glass is made of ice. Enjoy three drinks (cocktail or beer included), chat with locals or travelers over blue-lit sculptures, and see how long you can last on an ice stool. It’s cold but oddly welcoming—a memory that sticks with you.

What’s the experience like?

I’ll admit, I almost bailed when I realized I’d forgotten to wear thick socks. My friend just laughed and said the Berlin Icebar would sort us out anyway. The staff at the front—super relaxed, not pushy at all—handed us these heavy coats and gloves that smelled faintly like laundry powder and… maybe a bit of vodka? We got our first token and sat in the heated lounge with a beer, watching people psych themselves up for the cold room. The bartender told me, “Don’t worry, you won’t freeze—unless you want to!” (I think he was half joking.)

Stepping into the actual ice bar felt like entering some weird dream. Everything is carved from ice: walls, stools, even the glass in my hand. It’s -10°C but somehow not as brutal as I expected—maybe because everyone’s grinning or shivering together. There was this group of Dutch tourists trying to stack their shot glasses (also ice) before they melted; one guy managed three before his fingers gave up. Our guide explained how they rebuild the sculptures every few weeks since nothing lasts long here. I didn’t expect to enjoy orange juice so much, but something about it being served in an ice glass made it taste sharper.

I kept thinking about how strange it is to have this frozen pocket right in the middle of Berlin—Haus Schwarzenberg is just outside, full of graffiti and noise, but inside it’s all blue light and muffled laughter. My friend dared me to see how long I could last on the ice bench (not long). When we left, my hands tingled for ages. So yeah, if you’re looking for a day trip in Berlin that’s a bit sideways from the usual museums or clubs… this is it.
