Everything You Need to Know
Snacks & Spirits Worth Investigating
Even detectives need to refuel! Our A Very Merry Mystery menu features a lineup of sweet, savory, and slightly suspicious treats to keep your sleuthing energy high. From the Dips of Suspicion and Suspect’s Snack Board to the dangerously delicious Butter Tart Betrayal and Brownie Alibi, every bite comes with a side of intrigue.
Snacks are available in limited quantities and tend to disappear fast — so we highly recommend pre-ordering when you purchase your tickets.
And what’s a mystery without a good drink? Visit our fully licensed bar on site for festive cocktails inspired by the show, plus a full selection of wine, beer, and spirits to toast the season. (Drinks can be purchased during the show — no need to order ahead.)
