BABES IN TOYLAND | THE POOL CLUB AT THE VIRGIN
Welcome to Nashvil- I mean… NYC! Come on babes, we’re going to Toyland! Located at the Pool Club Rooftop at the Virgin Hotels in Midtown, this bar you have to see for yourself! The once rooftop oasis turned into a holiday wonderland pop-up. Larger-than-life toys, arcade games, a massive ball pit (in the pool!!) , and a walking piano that makes you feel like you’re walking right into FAO Schwarz!
CHRISTMAS VACATION BAR | NOELLE HIDDEN BAR
She’s a beaut, Clarke! Who’s ready for a little Christmas Vacation?! This hidden bar is located in the Noelle Hotel, trick is you have to find it first! Here, you’ll step right into the Griswold’s family living room. Their themed cocktails and shots have iconic names from the movie, my personal favorite sangria had a special movie quote note with it, how cute! A must visit during the holiday season in Nashville! If we haven’t convinced you enough, here’s a sneak peak!
A CAKED CHRISTMAS | LAYER CAKE
Baby all I want for Christmasss is yo- CAKE! As if Layer Cake could get any cuter, each floor has turned into a different holiday experience! The first floor is called the Wonder Room, full of all things pink where you can Sleigh All Day. You’ll have to see the other 3 floors for yourself, we promise you won’t be disappointed! You’re basically knocking out 4 experiences at once, right?! Fun fact, every Tuesday night in December the rooftop is showing Christmas movie showings! Your ticket gets you access to the movie and a cocktail! This is perfect for Nashville locals looking for a holiday date night! See for yourself here!
saint nicky’s | nicky’s coal fired
Pizza & cocktails, what more could you ask for?! You’ll find this holiday pop-up in the neighborhood of The Nations. This Italian restaurant makes you feel like you’re in a small town with the over-the-top decor and authentic Italian food! Their homemade pasta is even shaped like Christmas trees… it was adorable! While you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu, we recommend the Christmas Tree Bolognese, Pizza Folia and Big Italian Salad topped off with the Gingerbread Old Fashioned or Caribbean Hot Cocoa!
