Do you know your Baker Street bachelors from your Baskevillian hounds? The Red-Headed League from the Reigate Squire? Your opium pipe from your orange pips?

If the answer is yes, you need to get your sleuth-like self to The Mind Palace, an immersive Sherlock Holmes-themed cocktail experience.

Crime mysteries and cocktails? Don't mind if we do, Holmes!

Hidden "in plain sight" behind the walls of a shopping centre in London's W12, The Mind Palace is decked out in dark wood, red trim and plush leather seating that Holmes and Watson would be proud of.

There's even a shadowy library room lined with books and grand portraits.

Once inside, you'll have the chance to solve the case of the poisoned chalice, coming up against the maniacal mind of Moriarty's top lieutenant, Sebastian Moran - all while mixing the perfect cocktail, naturally.

Every puzzle solved will get you a cocktail ingredient, bringing you one step closer to mixing a killer bevvy.

Each delicious drink has its own criminally good theme, meaning you'll be sipping on cocktails such as A Scandal in Belgravia or The Blind Banker, a blend of Absolut Strawberry, Earl Grey tea, and strawberry shrub, served up in a bubbling teapot.

If cocktails aren't your thing, there's also a vast selection of wine, beer, soft drinks, non-alcoholic cocktails and spirits to choose from.

The drinking hole is top secret too. Previously only open to our "Network" members, the bar can only be accessed by booking an "eye appointment" at Doyle's Opticians - sneaky!

Fancy booking in? The Mind Palace is open from Tuesday to Sunday by reservation only. Guests must be 18+.

Tickets for the experience cost £30 per person, which gets you:

  • A welcome drink
  • A set of three cases to solve
  • Your own cocktail creation

You can be booked in here. Happy sleuthing!
