Get cool, get downright freezing! London is my favorite place to visit and on one of my recent trips over there I discovered the Absolut Ice Bar. Nestled in a quaint little nook off of Regent Street you€™ll find a little slice of Sweden, since everything is made from ice found in the frozen Torne River in Jukkasjärvi. This is truly an experience you cannot afford to miss. Below zero temperatures, silver parkas, SHOT GLASSES MADE OF ICE! This bar will definitely impress. The entire place is made of ice including chairs, tables, sculptures, and the bar itself! My favorite part is the phone booth sculpture. A trip to London isn't complete unless you make a stop at this bar. Yes, the price is a little steep (about 35 dollars entrance fee, with one drink) but really, how often can you say you sipped a cocktail in the middle of summer at -5�° Celsius?

English fits the need for an upscale bar and restaurant in downtown Chicago's trendy River North area. Housed in a 120-year-old building, English stretches through three floors of ultimate party atmosphere. The bar also serves lunch and dinner, but you'll find the most crowds here at night, when the hot-spot really comes to life! The best part? You can rent out a single floor for just your crew; each floor holds 100 people and comes equipped with its own private bar.
