Unfortunately, due to being a grade II listed building, the Gin Lab has limited accessibility. If you or a member of your party has trouble getting up or down stairs, please get in touch as we may be able to accommodate your booking on the ground floor, depending on the time of your session. Please note that the majority of our experiences take place on the first and second floors of the building, therefore, we require as much notice as possible if you would like to request a class to take place on the ground floor. Due to the nature of the business, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to accommodate all requests. You can get in touch on (01223) 751146 or info@cambridgeginlab.co.uk

Children are more than welcome in our shop at the front of the building, however, persons under the age of 18 are not permitted in our classrooms due to licensing, this includes babies. If you have children or babies, please do not bring them with you to your class.

We can provide non-alcoholic gin for non-drinkers and, at present, the best class to attend if you are not drinking is the Mix it class, as it is possible to fully participate in all elements of the session without imbibing alcohol. Unfortunately, for all our other experiences, any non-drinkers will miss out on certain aspects of the class. If you or a member of your party is a non-drinker, please let us know in advance as soon as possible as we will need to set up your place slightly differently. Please note that tickets for non-drinkers are priced the same as drinkers.

Unfortunately, anyone sitting on one of our experiences must pay the full ticket price, regardless of whether they are taking part. There are a number of excellent cafes and tourist sites in the immediate vicinity if a member of your party doesn’t wish to take part in your session.

The Gin Lab is a relatively compact building and unfortunately there is nowhere to sit and wait for your experience to start. If the weather is wet or cold, you are more than welcome to look around our shop whilst you wait, otherwise, we recommend arriving around 5 minutes prior to your session start time.

No, we simply offer the best pricing we can to everyone!
