About Tinsel

Tinsel is a festive pop-up bar that goes all out for the Christmas holiday season. The bar is transformed into a winter wonderland with extensive decorations, lights, and Christmas memorabilia from the past 40 years. Visitors can enjoy a unique and festive atmosphere, making it a must-visit during the holiday season. The bar offers creative drinks, including a fruity drink served in a run boot cup and spiked hot chocolate served in a coffee mug. While the drinks may be pricey, with prices starting at $17, the experience is well worth it. The bartenders are attentive, and the drinks are quick to arrive. Tinsel is a great spot to grab a drink and take in the holiday cheer, and its decorations make it a perfect spot for festive photos. Even if you don't plan to buy a drink, it's worth stopping by to take in the festive atmosphere. Be sure to try the "world's best hot chocolate with screwball" for $23. The space features handcrafted decorations that feel homey and authentic, unlike many commercial holiday setups. Visitors can also keep a Santa boot cup as a souvenir. However, towards the end of the holiday season, the menu can become limited, and some guests may find that holiday drinks and special mugs are no longer available, which can be disappointing. Despite this, the decorations remain impressive and worth experiencing before the holidays end.
