As you walk through an arched doorway of this bespoke bar, you are transported into another world: a world full of imagination, wonder and, nonetheless, alcohol. It’s like you found one of those places that has the power to teleport you to another dimension. The Cocktail Geeks have literally done that by transforming their bar into a House of Dragon-themed corner. From June, and stay until November 3, you can sip a themed out-of-this-world cocktail at the Edinburgh Arches.
The Cocktail Geeks is an ever-changing entertainment-themed bar that switches up every few months. It is also a privately owned establishment, so visitors can drink thoughtfully crafted cocktails while supporting a small local business. Their website states, “We are a small independent team using our passion for all things geeky to create unique and immersive drinking experiences inspired by some of our favourite works of entertainment.”
So, for now, you can head down to The Cocktail Geeks to enjoy some boozy concoctions in the world of “Ice & Fire”. Try the MILK OF THE POPPY with Hendrick’s Absinthe, Aluna Coconut Rum, Ceylon Arrack, Velvet Falernum, Adriatico Amaretto, Poppy Seeds, Curry Leaf, Coconut Milk, Fee Celery Bitters, or the BLOOD OF OLD VALYRIA with Holyrood Height of Arrows Gin, Fair Goji Berry, Briottet Lychee, Dragonfruit & Lychee Cordial, Guava, Miracle Foamer.
The next theme is set to be “Vault 131”, and earlier bar themes consisted of Game of Thrones, The Witcher, Alice in Wonderland, and more. The team has really put the imagination to work and the results turned out spectacularly!
