Im very glad I purchased the add ons prior because there was no way to add them in once we were there. It took an hour to get coffee and the milk for milk and cookies. They are definitely under staffed because everyone comes at once so it takes a while for the server to come. The experience is definitely what you make it, there is no wow factor provided by the event.

The Christmas aesthetic/vibe was nice and cute. The drinks were very good and strong. I had the Hot Buttered Rum. The food was decent. I ordered the deviled eggs and turkey sliders. I wasn’t a big fan of the sliders. The woman who waited on me was very nice and personable. The bartender literally never acknowledged me even though they sat me directly in his line of sight (at the bar). He wasn’t my waiter though so it’s understandable but it was just a little awkward. Overall, it was a decent experience

Most reservations are 90 minutes which is understandable but when we were seated at 7pm the waiter immediately came to us and told us we had until 8pm which would be last call and checks would be given at 8:15pm. He then walked away for over 10 minutes after telling us he’d be right back. I felt like we were rushed when there wasn’t even people waiting and the tables were not full.

This pop up bar was cute and very festive. There was so much cute Christmas decor and photo booth area. The food was average, but wasn’t our primary focus to enjoy. The drinks looked so good and they each had such cute mugs/glasses. However, the drinks had so many ingredients in each that it made it hard for my friend and I to fully enjoy them. Between the two of us, we tried 4 of them, and only one of them was enjoyable. Could’ve been just our personal preferences but we were disappointed since each drink cost us $12-15 and we got hesitant to try any others. Not sure if we’d recommend it to those seeking an amazing experience since it didn’t feel like it was worth spending $20 in a cover cost on top of our food and drink costs. If you wouldn’t mind drinks that have an “interesting” variety of holiday ingredients and you’re not worried about food, then I would recommend it.

Not at all worth the hype. They could have picked better Christmas music and drinks were overrated and not good. Definitely won't be going back.

Drinks were good & ambience really made you feel like you were at the North Pole! Using open table was soooo easy, i was able to message the restaurant to add another person, loved that feature. The food tho…. Just no, please eat before you go. Our server was fine nothing to write home about. Definitely a one time , we tried it, experience.

I probably wouldn’t attend this event again. I felt like this was extremely overhyped. The Santa was not present, the menu was not appealing and the drink menu was not appetizing.

The experience was beyond cool. However, the food and drinks were straight awful and overly expensive. Four people and it was $160 in total for four drinks and two apps. The selfie space was so cool, def would’ve just paid 5 bucks to take selfies and left. Over priced and not worth the “hype”. They were out of a lot of items and the chips for the buffalo dip were stale and the fries with turkey gravy were crinkle cut fries with some gravy dropped over them. Left within 30 minutes of being there.
