    The food & service here was so amazing!! I went for the first time with friends last night who had already gone multiple times, and spoke very highly of it- it absolutely lived up to the expectations. Shoutout to Griffin for being such a fantastic server!!Definitely worth going with a group of friends for a whimsical & fun time making potions (alcoholic or non-alcoholic) as a special treat :)

  • Review 2 (2024-12-29 - Rating: 5)

    This place is really cool if you’re in the Flatiron/Chelsea area of Manhattan. The drinks are super unique with magic twists resembling drinks from popular movie series Harry Potter. The bartender Connor was spectacular, friendly and helpful with service and knowledge of the area etc. definitely stop in for a cool experience.

    I just have to say that this was so much fun! Truly one of the best experiences in New York City! It’s so hands-on. I came here to celebrate for my One Year Anniversary of being Sober and they had mocktail options for the potions class as well. All my friends and I had a blast! Our Potions master was iconic!!!!! Everyone was 10/10 and I can’t recommend this place enough. Don’t be fooled once you go in though! All the magic happens in the back! They’re brilliant and magical that way!

    What an awesome place! The staff is so friendly and welcoming! Came here with a friend today for the potions making class andIt was great! Our potion master Poppy was so sweet, she was helpful, kind, and efficient. The drinks were YUMMY as was the food. We had the chicken tenders and you could tell these are not frozen tenders,they were def fresh made.The quesadilla was delish as well. I would def recommend this experience. The decor is beautifully done and adds to the magical vibe! Stop by for the experience or for drinks and dinner, you’ll be glad you did!

    This was a super cool and super fun experience. My partner and I did the Halloween Potion Class. We got a robe, a complimentary witch hat, a free drink/shot and 2 potion cocktails each.Theyre very accommodating as I do not drink alcohol but my partner does and we were able to have the same experience, just with mocktails which were SUPER delicious.Of their 4 potion drinks, all are vegetarian friendly and 2 are vegan friendly.Our instructor was Poppy and we loved her (cawcaw) and she was super bubbly, informative and helpful.My only note, which is a truly small grievance, is the booking page asks if there is anything the organization needs to know like dietary restrictions etc before booking and we did make note we are vegan, though during our experience we had milky-esque shots brought to our table that I had to investigate a bit, which did turn out to have dairy.Its honestly not the worst thing, a small hiccup, and maybe that information got lost during our experience, but a bit more quality control in that department would be good since it truly is quite accommodating!Overall though I 100% recommend and it was a truly awesome experience.

    Great cocktails, fun atmosphere. They also have these potion experiences that are pretty fun to take visiting friends (especially if they are harry potter fans), great way to pregame.

  • Review 7 (2024-03-04 - Rating: 5)

    Such a fun experience! We truly loved it here and Poppy was such a great host. She was very interactive and really made this event! We will be back to try the other drinks. Must check out if you are a fan of fantasy or just plain old magic!

    OMG I was waiting to go to this place for so long and today I finally made it. I didn’t have the time to do the Potions Class because my time was limited but I have an AWESOME time with my boyfriend and friend at the bar are. The services EXCELENTE. The bartender was wonderful, funny and friendly. We tried the Phoenix Feather.. SOOO GOOD!! 100/10. My friend and I have a turkey sandwich too so delicious!!! The experience so far one of the best at NYC. It was so much fun!! I can’t wait to come back and do the complete experiences

    My friends and I came here to celebrate my friend’s birthday. We came at night and the place was lively. The drinks were great for celebrating spooky season. I would definitely recommend for those looking for a new and fun experience. I also want to thank the workers for being so kind and providing a great service!!

    Me and my girls we’re celebrating Valentine’s Day, so we made reservations for the potion experience, it was definitely a fun time, We had poppy hosting it & she was such a pleasure she’s so fun & definitely brings all the vibes, we truly enjoy her hosting us.

  • Review 12 (2023-12-05 - Rating: 5)

    Had a great experience for the magic potion making! As soon as you get inside, the place has this kind of a magical cozy underground vibe. The Christmas tree makes it especially wonderful. Our potion masters Calypso and Nevy were super friendly and helpful. Overall, it was a super fun experience. Drinks are yummy and strong so we got drunk and got a chance to meet new people 😁

  • Review 13 (2023-12-20 - Rating: 5)

    We came to check out the Hot Chocolate experience at the Flatiron location and loved it.I have done all of the experiences offered at the Cauldron and this one did not disappoint.This was our first time at this location and they did pretty well with replicating the Downtown location.We were especially delighted with our host Levy who was just full of enthusiasm and played 100% into the Wizarding/Magical role! If you are a Harry Potter fan then you’ll love this place.The hot chocolate was absolutely fun and delicious with all the flavor options and fun toppings. We even got a chance to get an introductory drink from the magical creatures using a bit a magic!I’ll definitely be bringing my Wizarding friends here when they are in the area.

  • Review 14 (2024-02-13 - Rating: 5)

    This place is incredible! The drinks are lovely and the potion making class is top tier 🩷 When I was there I didn’t order any food, so I’m unable to give feedback on that. The bartender was so bubbly and helpful as well as the host who helped prepared your ultimate magical Harry Potter experience.

  • Review 15 (2024-11-03 - Rating: 5)

    What a great experience! This place had such amazing drinks and great food as well! I made a reservation and was running a bit late. When I called, the incredible host Astra let me know it wouldn’t be a problem and went above and beyond to make sure my party was cared for. He truly made our experience the best!

  • Review 16 (2024-10-16 - Rating: 5)

    Took the Potions making class with Potion Master David. It was such a fun night with a cool atmosphere; David was hilarious. Highly recommend it for folks looking for a Halloween experience in the city! The drinks also came out great!

  • Review 17 (2024-11-03 - Rating: 5)

    I’ve been here a couple times n it was alright but this was my first time coming in a couple months and the hostess Astro was just such a delight to talk to. They were super attentive even tho they weren’t our server and even checked on our drinks and food while helping a lot of other people. Really nice to see a refreshing face, def prob gonna have to come more often.

  • Review 18 (2024-12-22 - Rating: 5)

    We did the Christmas potions experience and potions master David was amazing. Love the experience and the drinks tasted great as well!

  • Review 19 (2024-07-26 - Rating: 5)

    I planned a team outing for my company who is involved in the D&D industry and we absolutely had the best time at the Cauldron! Our Head Potion Master, David, was the most knowledgeable and gifted potion master I’ve ever been under the tutelage of and would highly recommend any future students of cocktail alchemy to enroll in his class! Alongside his charismatic instruction, we found ourselves fully immersed in the fantasy world The Cauldron has beautifully established. The cocktail recipes were fantastic and the activity of potion making created even stronger collaboration bonds within our team. It was a perfect 7 out of 5 stars and is a memory that we will cherish and keep in our witchy hearts! - The Pocket Bard Team

  • Review 20 (2024-03-09 - Rating: 5)

    We went here for my sisters 21st bday, big potter head, and I gotta say... it was a blast! David (mwahahaha) was a fantastic potion master and guided us through everything seamlessly. Well be back with friends for round 2!

    Connor was a fantastic and attentive bartender. The staff was exceptionally inviting. Jack held the bar down and made us feel at home. 100% coming back on my next visit to the city!!!

  • Review 23 (2024-08-08 - Rating: 5)

    Had an amazing time at The Cauldron, amazing staff, amazing service, and the cocktails? Beyond amazing. Ask for Faith or Dominick, the manager, who will ensure you have an amazing time.Ask for the potion masters, who will whisk you away to their back room, and teach you the potion recipes and how to brew a delicious love potion.Received VIP level service and treatment from their team. If you’re in the front or back room, ask for Daury, he’ll make sure you’re taken care of. If you’re looking for a unique experience in New York, this is your place.Get your witch & wizard on at The Cauldron, make sure you try the Three Witches, to share!

  • Review 24 (2024-04-27 - Rating: 5)

    Potion master David was AMAZING!!! A group of 7 of us went for a bachelorette party in NYC! We had such a blast! The drinks were great! The shots were great! And the experience was incredible! Potion master David helped us through every step of the way! He took the beat Instagram worthy photos and videos! REQUEST DAVID!!! Highly recommending doing the portion mixing glass with a group at the Cauldron! Cheers to David!

    I wish I knew the name of the bartender, he had elf ears on, but anyways he was AMAZING! Truly made our experience soooo much better. All of the staff were so sweet. I highly recommend this place. The drinks were super cool and the vibe is fun. We just went in for drinks, maybe next time well do a class, but it was an overall wonderful experience that I highly recommend. Add this place to your list of things to do in NYC!

  • Review 29 (2024-02-25 - Rating: 5)

    I’ve been to the cauldron multiple times for the potions classes and it’s always been a fun experience! David was so nice and energetic! I always recommend this place if you want a fun time with cool drinks!

  • Review 30 (2024-04-24 - Rating: 5)

    I dont know why this place isnt more happening. Our bartenders every night recognized us, and were so welcoming. We ended up there 3 nights in a row just because the service was so great and across from our hotel. The cocktails were so fun to watch being made and to drink!

  • Review 31 (2024-06-21 - Rating: 5)

    I loved it even though I know it’s not real magic but it felt like it, and the potions are so cool 😎 thank you Potion Master David for the best day ever! (Otis age 10)

    Our experience at The Cauldron was pure magic! Potion Master Poppy guided us through a whimsical journey of mixology, crafting delightful concoctions. Whether youre a die-hard Potterhead or just looking for a unique night out, this experience is sure to cast a spell on you. Highly recommend for a magical time with friends!

  • Review 35 (2023-11-20 - Rating: 5)

    It was so much fun going here and making potions, cant wait fir my next trip to New York because I would love to do this again. While I was there I was the first to try a new drink Damians charm which looks like Butterbeer but tasted like fresh herbs and flowers. I can tell it isnt for everyone but I enjoyed the drink thoroughly. Definitely worth the visit.

    The potions master David provided a great magical experience to our potions class. Will never forget this night!

    The Potion Class with Potion master David was awesome!! Had a great time and delicious cocktails

  • Review 39 (2024-09-17 - Rating: 5)

    Went on Friday the 13th with a friend. They had the coolest looking specialty drinks. I got an espresso martini, which was the best one Ive had anywhere. The atmosphere was great. The cheese platter was packed and delicious. But the best part of the whole experience was the bartender working that day. Wish I would have gotten his name. We came in at 3 p.m., and he was hands down the nicest, most polite bartender in the city. Highly recommended The Cauldron. On our next visit, we will try the mixology class.

  • Review 40 (2024-08-07 - Rating: 5)

    We visited this past weekend after our harry potter filled day and it was the the best part of the trip! if you haven’t already, definitely take the potion making class! Our potion master RRRRRRRAMONA✨ was absolutely fantastic! The staff were super nice and the atmosphere was incredible. The science behind the drink making was so cool to watch and to experience making. We made The Foragers Cauldron and The Maleficaria, also ordered an Ectoplasm shot and Bubbling Shot of Death, all were delicious! The decor, staff, and experience were absolutely incredible and we definitely plan on coming back soon. Thank you for such an unforgettable experience ❤️

  • Review 41 (2024-08-31 - Rating: 5)

    As a show its fantastic. The atmosphere and wands are just awesome. I will say the drinks could use work though. They were ok but I wouldnt come for just that. They came off too strong of citric acid and not just lemon. But to make our own potion was fun.I recommend it, but I hope they workshop the recipes.

  • Review 42 (2024-09-01 - Rating: 5)

    Had gone to the Cauldron on Stone St last year. Was much more impressed there then here tonight. The food was good, but not magical. I remember being enchanted by the menu last time. This time my reaction was, thats it? A bit underwhelming.. Service was ok and unrushed, but thats mainly because the place was nearly deserted, despite it being 8pm on a Saturday night. Expected more magic. Got an ok dinner, though. Probably wont be going back.

  • Review 46 (2024-09-14 - Rating: 5)

    Went here for a Bday celebration with my daughter. Did the potion making class with Potions Master David. How fun and exciting. We made 2 potions (cocktails) which were delicious. My daughter doesnt drink and they had matching mocktails made exactly the same way for the experience. The atmosphere was very witchy and it was one of the best bday experiences ever. They do have other special events and I highly recommend checking them out. They have locations all around the world so no matter where you are you will probably be near one. Go check it out. If you lean to pagan, witchy or have kids (or you) love Harry Potter this will be a special experience.

    I visited the Cauldron this weekend to celebrate my daughters 7th birthday. Wanted to do an afternoon tea that is Halloween themed. My potion master server was David. He made this event so interactive, engaging , magical and memorable. It truly was a special event for my daughter. Even though he was tending to several tables, David made my daughter feel like he was just serving her. David even brought tea cups for our American girl dolls. The tea sandwiches was delicious and accommodated to our dietary request. I highly recommend the Cauldron as it is kid friendly. We both truly had a special mother and daughter magical tea time...

  • Review 58 (2023-12-04 - Rating: 5)

    Oh my. We have been here twice in the last TWO days. We’ve done both the hot chocolate AND the cocktail experiences, and both were so much fun. Nevy, specifically, was there both times and she was so much fun! So easy to talk to and is so engaging, animated, and vibrant with all of her guests. The drinks for the cocktails were delicious. An absolute favorite destination this trip and would totally come back!

    We had a wonderful experience at the Cauldron with the Hot Chocolate experience. Because of our schedule changes, we needed to ask twice to adjust the time of our reservation. The team was incredibly warm and accommodating, making it happen for us even though I know it was inconvenient for them. My kids loved the atmosphere and our host was terrific. A homerun!

  • Review 79 (2023-11-08 - Rating: 4)

    From the moment we walked in Halloween night we were looked after. Matt at the front got us situated at the bar, Jack the bartender entertained us with his humor and conversation, and Jan (or Jen) not really sure took care of our food and drink order. Everyone was very nice and friendly on a night that is usually a little crazy. Thanks guys for a fun experience. We will definitely come back now that you are in a more convenient location.

    The service is always so warm and friendly, I have come here three times now and I love it. Came for the first time to do potions, second and third did a wizard afternoon tea. Potions is super fun and interactive, definitely a unique experience! Tea is a super chill tea party with delicious treats and all you can drink tea, in whatever combination you can think of. Was fun for both a birthday trip with my girls and a unique experience for my parents. If youre looking for a warm and welcoming space with whimsical events, definitely give one of their experiences a try. Im looking forward to coming to a drag night next!! ❤️

    I have been wanting to try out this experience for a while but have not been able to make time for it on the last couple of visits but this was totally worth the wait!! The staff were so friendly and welcoming when we arrived and checked in for our reservation. When we were taken to our potions class we met Nevy and her energy, friendliness and attentiveness through out the experience was just the icing on the cake for an amazing visit. The drinks and shots were delicious and the process of making them was so fun! We will definitely make another visit to this location on our next trip to NYC.

    Such a fun experience! We did the Magical Hot Chocolate package, and we had such a lovely time. The hot chocolate was delish, as was the complimentary juice, and we had a blast mixing and matching all our flavors while dressed in our wizard robes. The staff was awesome and made sure we had a great time and offered to take our pictures for us without our even asking. Would definitely go back and do this again.

    We went out for drinks on our Anniversary. The host accommodated us at the bar, we were an hour early for our reservation so I really appreciated it. The drinks were delicious and really well balanced, the bartender was handling everything so well despite how busy it was, he looked like he was training 2 guys at the same time yet we still got prompt service. Miss Celestina was an absolute gem, I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time. Interior was very cool, too dark for photos but the bar has a massive tree statue running through it. Excellent times.

    Oh, honey, I simply must spill the tea on my bewitching night at The Cauldron’s potion class! Imagine this: cauldrons bubbling, potions brewing, and me living my best wizard fantasy.Faith, our potion master, was an absolute 10 out of 10. She’s got that perfect mix of knowledge and sass, guiding us through each magical concoction with flair and a wink. I almost felt like I was in a top-notch wizarding school, but with way better cocktails!And let’s not forget the divine Dominick, the manager. Talk about service! This man knows how to run a show. From the moment we walked in, he made sure everything was perfect, adding that extra sprinkle of fabulousness to the night. He’s a solid 10 out of 10 in my book.Plus, a special shout-out to Daury (Papi) for being the best come-back support. Truly, the team at The Cauldron knows how to make magic happen.If you’re craving a unique, enchanting night out, The Cauldron is your spot. Trust me, you’ll leave feeling like a magical queen. 💅✨

  • Review 108 (2024-04-14 - Rating: 5)

    This was an overall fun experience that was recommended to me by my daughter who had gone about a year ago. At the end of the day this is a magic (D&D / Harry Potter) themed Tiki Bar with a speakeasy twist. Overall fun place that would appeal to people that are into magic, and magic type theming, I am not one of those but enjoyed the atmosphere, along with making and trying the potions.Two things that would have made this experience better, for me anyway.When you arrive it looks like you are in the wrong place (speakeasy feel) but when you check in they are pretty open about you being in the right place. What would make this a little more fun is if they made it feel more secret that you are in the right place, then gave you a talisman (coaster, folded napkin, any almost no value object) and told you to display it so someone will know to summon you.Something that is totally missing from the Tiki Bar formula was the ability to purchase a mug as a souvenir of your visit. Honestly this was the one part of the experience that disappointed me the most. I really wished I could have had the ability to purchase a Cauldron, or mythical creature themed Tiki Mug. Management should not kid themselves, you are a Tiki Bar, so dig in and source then sell mugs themed to your establishment that maybe even have your name on them. Think about it, I am complaining that there wasnt a high profit cash grab item to buy.

    What a fun experience!! David the Potion Master was a perfect balance of “in character” and winking — and made the actual cocktail making experience fun and easy for us. He’s a natural. And the good news is that there is no trade off between the quality of the cocktails — and the magic of making them. This would be a great activity for a party of any kind… but we just came for the start of a date night. Highly recommend!!!!!

When she heard our love of dark chocolate, she got us one of the last sets of it.The atmosphere of this place is amazing and a great experience of all who love magic, wonder, gothicness, and a great show!(If you all are ever looking to expand, check out Ashville North Carolina. It has a huge drink, entertainment, and terot/goth/punk community. You all would be an instant hit. The yearly punk convention would be a perfect time to open as you would be booked all two weeks!)Happy holidays and thank you all again for the magical experience!

    We rented out the back room for our daughters 9 year old birthday party as we wanted to do something Harry Potter themed. The kids got to do the potion making experience, while the adults got to enjoy food, drinks and desert. The entire staff was amazing from the moment we arrived until we left. Master David did an excellent job keeping all the kids involved and entertained the entire time. Everyone had an amazing time and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking to do something similar. Well definitely be back to try some of their other experiences. Thank you again!
