Alcotraz is a popular cocktail bar in London that mimics the experience of being incarcerated, inspired by San Francisco’s Alcatraz.
The bar operates on a BYOB model, requiring guests to smuggle their own alcohol for cocktails created by staff.
While it enjoys popularity, some organizations have criticized the concept as insensitive to issues surrounding incarceration.
Guests engage in themed activities and theatrics, creating an immersive experience that often includes playful elements reminiscent of the prison setting.
The owner of Alcatraz City Cruises has expressed no issue with Alcotraz, deeming it a fun and well-designed experience encouraging responsible drinking.
