“ Absolutely amazing experience from start to finish. The staff/actors were absolutely fabulous and you get drawn in straight away. You smuggle your own alcohol in and it’s turned in to cocktails. I would recommend only taking a could have 35cl bottles we had 35cl gin, 35cl vodka and a 70cl spiced rum. We came out with half the rum, half the vodka and the full gin between 7 of us so not a lot is needed. You get 4 cocktails each over the hour and a half experience. Will definitely be back. ”
“ An absolutely amazing group experience. If you are after something a bit different in Manchester then look no further. The immersive theatre production that they put on here is absolutely incredible. All the actors and the mixologist make this place so incredible. I'd recommend it to anyone. ”
“ Absolutely brilliant! Came here with my friend last weekend, and wasn't super keen on the idea - I didn't really know what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised! I'd describe it more as immersive theatre than a bar i think, but you're served drinks throughout. Actors are all really good, and really get you involved. Was a really entertaining evening, and a great way to spend a couple of hours. You 'smuggle' in your own alcohol, and so get x4 cocktails made with this throughout the experience - all of these cocktails were so tasty! Would definitely recommend if you're in the area, and are looking for something a bit different to do. From Dizzy & Moose! ”
“ First time experience! Great concept and exciting! Amazing cocktails! Lovely staffs ”
“ We had a great time on a sisters-day activity. I have severe social anxiety so was worried about interacting with the actors and other guests. But you are placed in cell blocked by party and do not have to really interact at all with strangers. The actors did a great job making me feel at ease and not called out; they were also able to ad lib with everything you say. A very enjoyable experience! We all laughed so much. ”
“ Great night out. So much more fun than just going out for drinks. Staff were amazing fun and kept us guessing what would happen next. “Chicken soup” were all very nice high quality cocktails. What a great night we had would recommend 100% ”
“ Bought tickets for my cousins birthday. We had such a good time. Great atmosphere and actors were brilliant. The drinks are far from boring, very creative and they surprise you with a different cocktail each time. Plenty of activities to keep you entertained. We were called through for a secret meeting; real entertaining! Boxes in each cell to store any bags. Something different and I would definitely return and recommend booking! ”

The attention to detail in the set design, props, and overall atmosphere was top-tier — it felt like stepping into a live-action film. The storyline was gripping and clever, perfectly paced to keep you involved from start to finish. The actors? Absolutely phenomenal. A special shoutout to Cassidy and The Warden, who stole the show with their energy, commitment, and sharp improvisation. They brought the whole experience to life in the most entertaining way.
