If you’re looking for a unique way to spend an evening in Los Angeles, the Science and Sip The Drunken Laboratory offers a playful mix of science experiments, energetic competition, and drinks. This experience, brought to you by The Drunken Laboratory, is designed for adults who want to enjoy a lively night out with friends, all while feeling like a scientist for a few hours.
Two things we really appreciate about this experience are the interactive nature—you’re not just watching something happen, you’re part of it—and the themed drinks which add an extra layer of fun. The chance to don a lab coat and goggles makes it feel like a quirky, adult twist on childhood science class.
On the flip side, a possible consideration is the cost. At $65 per person, it’s not the cheapest night out, but when you factor in the drinks, the games, and the photo-worthy decor, many will find it worth the splurge.
This experience works best for those who enjoy hands-on activities, aren’t afraid to get a little messy, and want a memorable, social night in LA. It’s particularly suited for groups of friends or couples looking for something different from the typical bar crawl or club night.

From the moment you arrive, you’re welcomed into a space that’s decorated for the occasion, promising some great photo moments amid the themed decor.

Once inside, your evening kicks off with a complimentary themed cocktail, which sets the tone for a night of sipping and experimenting. You’ll then be split into two teams, ready to compete in a series of science-themed games and challenges. Think of it as a mix between a trivia night and a science fair, but with a lot more laughs and a lot less lab risk.
The interactive experiments are the core of the experience. These are designed to challenge your critical thinking and ingenuity—plus, to test your ability to think and drink on your feet. The live DJ and MC keep the energy high, making sure everyone’s engaged and having a good time.
Participants are encouraged not to consume alcohol beforehand, so they can fully enjoy the experiments and competitions. If you’re craving an extra hit of fun, champagne bottle service is available for purchase, but it isn’t included in the basic ticket.
