The latest addition to the Edinburgh Christmas attractions has opened its doors for the first time - a polar ice bar.
Located on George Street, the Polar Ice Bar is making its Edinburgh debut and it’s already proving popular with a number of weekend slots already sold out in the run up to Christmas. I went along on Monday afternoon to check it out.

00:00The latest addition to the Edinburgh Christmas attractions has opened its doors for the first time, a Polar Ice Bar.
00:07Located on George Street, the Polar Ice Bar is making its Edinburgh debut and it's already proving popular with a number of weekend slots already sold out in the run up to Christmas.
00:16I went along on Monday afternoon to check it out.
00:19Entry to the bar is £14, which gets you a drink token that you can redeem against one of their two in-house cocktails.
00:26Unfortunately you can't use your EH Plus code to get the discount.
00:30Inside is a brilliantly laid out ice bar complete with little nooks to sit and have a drink with friends or family.
00:36You can get a fetching blue jacket and gloves provided by the bar to make sure you aren't too cold during your stay as well.
00:44The bar itself looks pretty good inside, it's filled with lots of ice sculptures and it's really well decorated.
00:51You are time limited to a 30 minute stay in the bar, although considering the low temperatures it's meant to be about minus 8, I'm not sure how much more time you would want to stay in.
