The experience is entirely interactive from start to finish and you'll learn all about the wonderful sensory world we live in through incredible mixed drinks and cocktails.
Take home the recipes for the serves you've enjoyed and experience the incredible audio visual experience that is The Inhibitor Room.
People who are photosensitive may be affected by the experience. This is an alcohol based experience, so it is for adults only. Our historic venue is very old and has a lot of stairs, so we regretfully cannot cater for wheelchair users or people who find stairs difficult.
We can cater for all dietary requirements and have incredible non-alcoholic alternatives.

5.00Anton was a brilliant host. He was fun, funny and interesting as he described how the different senses were at play during the experience. Also they end up really accurate when guessing your flavour profile cocktail. Won’t say much more than that as I don’t want to spoil the fun. If you’re in Belfast and you like unique experiences then give it go, I highly recommend it!
Great experience! We...

5.00Great experience! We learned so much about our personal taste preferences that we never thought of. The cocktails served were very good but the best was the cocktail that was specifically made for each of us based on our personal preferences during the sampling of different flavors. Hard to explain the experience but definitely worth doing. Paul was an outstanding leader. Highly recommend.
Excellent

5.00Booked the Sensorium Experience for my niece's 18th birthday and we had so much fun! Sarah was our host, she did a great job for her first time hosting (she shared this with us) guiding us through the experience 👌 well done! Aoife really enjoyed exploring the table activities and having the different rooms kept everyone guessing what was coming next. The final activity on the rooftop creates a lovely atmosphere, well worth all the steps 🤣. Really enjoyed the celebrations, a great idea for getting a group of friends/family together to experience something different in the city 🥳💕

5.00We did the sensorium cocktail experience yesterday for my birthday. It was so much fun !!! Anton was very good and fun, good couple of hours craic and very knowledgeable. Without giving away too much, you will not believe your senses but you will thoroughly enjoy it. Good value considering how many drinks you consume. The rooftop bar was a lovely touch to finish off the whole experience. Well done on creating a great experience !!!!
Well worth a trip!

Not really much of an “experience”!!

3.00A bit unimaginative and pricey for what you got. I thought it would have been more personalised and relevant to cocktail making. The smell shakers were vague and all blurred into each another. All in all a bit amateurish and underwhelming! Sorry, no offence meant, just an honest review.
Wonderful experience, highly recommend.

5.00A wonderful experience unlike any other cocktail making you would have tried before. Caolán (our cocktail guide) was fabulous; fun, informative and engaging. You’re taken on a journey through the senses to arrive at a cocktail made just for you and the flavours you like. A thoroughly enjoyable afternoon.
