coastercameron98 Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 Turns out the Drop Ride is back up and running again. Went through today expecting it be down but it seems they've fixed it. pognoi and OldFarmerDean 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whatever Posted October 30, 2015 Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 Went to the dungeons for the second time today (First went in 2013). We pre booked tickets, it was very busy and we went in at our time slot. My mum was pissed because we had to wait another FORTY minutes to get into the attraction. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The seance was very clever but a bunch of immature boys spoiled it a little. There were signs saying Drop Dead would not be operating, but imagine my surprise as it was! I'm not keen on drop towers, but I liked it a lot. I wouldn't say it was scary for me but I loved it! Kerfuffle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldFarmerDean Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 It did make me wonder why loads of stock was on sale when I visited in October... A pretty hefty project for a Christmas thing... I reckon it will be permanent personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and surely there is enough space in County Hall for a gift shop elsewhere, perhaps a combined gift shop serving both the Dungeons and other attractions (Shrek, Sea Life etc)?

GladiatorFanKyle Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 Went today and the shop is completely gone. there is just one long corridor with walls lined with fake news articles about a tavern and a murder and a few other bits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Hutson Posted November 14, 2015 Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 I hope they make full use of the size of the giftshop area - it looks like form the video they will. Will be nice to have a free drink (and they'll make money from people buying more drink). I wonder if you can come in from the "outside" and just have a drink? I also hope (and presume) this will be a brand new experience that will last beyond just the Christmas season? New permanent shows inside the dungeon, please.

lewumbrajumbos Posted November 23, 2015 Report Share Posted November 23, 2015 Drop Dead was seemingly shut today as we were lead straight pass it as our ending to the London Dungeons today was freedom. How jolly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucky Posted November 27, 2015 Report Share Posted November 27, 2015 I'm happy to see this new addition at the Dungeons, but it disappoints me that your free drink is either alcoholic or a soft drink!

GladiatorFanKyle Posted November 27, 2015 Report Share Posted November 27, 2015 Not enough for me in a soft drink sir, need a bigger kick....like a coffee if you need Coffee after going through the Dungeons then you must be crazy! the dungeons is enough to keep you awake especially Sweeney Todd!(even though I know the EXACT moment the chairs tip back it still catches me out!!!!)

Bucky Posted November 27, 2015 Report Share Posted November 27, 2015 There are so many stairs though. When you're my height it gets very tiring. Need a caffeine injection to get me back on the go before I have to go find Shrek. Not an easy life, so much coffee is needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GladiatorFanKyle Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Went through the dungeons tonight and to my utter surprise Tavern is now open! it's so well themed and the drink selection is good. you get to the entrance if it's a bit full you have to wait but you get given a token and then either go to the bar to get your drink (alcoholic or non alcoholic) or you can just leave and keep your token as a souvenir. also what is awesome is you can use your phone in there and there is free wifi....

Dungeon Selfies !! Awesome! I am sure this was just for previews as they haven't had their press opening yet. Glad to hear it's well themed! Is there still Dungeon tat to buy from somewhere? I do wonder if they will merge giftshops... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is none in the Tavern, the only thing you can actually buy as a gift at the dungeons are the photos, I couldn't see any dungeon themed merch anywhere else! unless they plan to change that after Tavern officially opens but at the moment there is no merch to buy from what I've seen!

pognoi Posted December 12, 2015 Report Share Posted December 12, 2015 The Tavern really is a great piece. It's so authentic and with a facade could escape as a century bar. The theming inside is so intricate and detailed, and the atmosphere was equally well done. I much prefer this then a big, full of toot shop! (although, there is a little shop at the end where you can buy pencils, key chains and lollies and whatnot) GladiatorFanKyle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 Escape the Great Fire of London opens on May 21st, not sure what it exactly entails but always nice to see new stuff. Also, if you visit between 23rd and 27th May, and buy a Tavern Tankard, you will receive a limited edition pop badge. https://www.thedungeons.com/london/en/explore-the-dungeon/escape-the-great-fire-of-london.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
