Step into a theatrical bar where orange jumpsuits and metal cells set the stage for bespoke cocktails. Alcotraz blends immersive performance with personalised mixology for a 105‑minute evening that’s part show, part speakeasy.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step through a reinforced door and the street noise slips away — fluorescent light picks out orange jumpsuits, clanking cell doors and a bar made to look like a reception desk at a penitentiary. Actors play guards and inmates while a bartender – an inmate in character – quizzes you about contraband and taste preferences before turning your smuggled spirits into a personalised cocktail.
