A Christmas Dive Bar Is Bringing Immersive Entertainment And Themed Cocktails To Brick Lane

Santa cheersing with guests at immersive Christmas dive bar Humbug.

Grotto and tonic is the new G&T.

Caught the festive flu yet? Don’t be a Scrooge, delve into the magical land of Humbug, an immersive Christmas dive bar. For a limited time only from 14th November, merrymakers can get lost within a hidden world of storytelling and sing-a-longs at The Truman Brewery on Brick Lane. During an interactive performance, Santa and his besties will task you with the hefty job of saving the day (or you can merely watch it chaotically unfold), followed by a boozy winter blow-out.

This unforgettable experience comes once again from production enterprise Speakeasy Project, founded by Backyard Cinema's James Milligan and Immersive Everywhere's Matt Keeler. Under ribbons of mistletoe and sparkling lights, treat your tastebuds to inventive cocktails from Humbug's Naughty or Nice menu, including The Grinch (Midori, pineapple juice, lime and lemonade) and Bah F*****g Humbug (spiced rum, Licor 43, chilled hot chocolate and cream, topped with a piece of chocolate fudge) for those who are really in the spirit. 

The experience is open from the 14th November until the 31st December at The Truman Brewery, Boiler House, 152 Brick Lane, E1 6RU. Get your Humbug tickets and sign up to our newsletter for all the latest news sent straight to your inbox.
