Post last Updated 12/4/22

What do I mean by “Christmas Pop-Up Bar”: It could be a limited-time run of a bar set up that literally goes away after the holidays, or an existing bar that goes all out for Christmas with lots of festive décor, lights, holiday menus, and at times over-the-top festive feeling.

Cleveland Christmas Pop-Up Bars

Great Lakes Brewing Co. Secret Cellar Cleveland, Christmas Pop-Up Bar

Secret Cellar

Deep below the Great Lakes Brewery is a secret cellar that gets a bit festive around the holidays. This is a smaller and more intimate space that opts for lots of Christmas lights over kitschy, over-the-top décor, and it feels more like you’re in a pub in Europe than the local bar down the street. If these are the vibes you’re looking for, this is your place. They have a limited-themed menu with cocktails and treats and of course plenty of Christmas Ale. They also have early hours, so if you’re not into crowded small spaces be sure to check them out earlier in the day! Also, bring an unwrapped toy to donate to Toys for Tots and receive a complimentary Great Lakes giveaway while supplies last.

This year, Great Lakes invited us out to experience their Secret Cellar Holiday bar and we had a great time. You can see more about that experience here. (Gifted by GLBC).

Of course there is the New Orleans style revelry, but did you know Cleveland celebrated 3 other cultural festivities with ties to Mardi Gras?

PLUS Did you know Cleveland is also going to have a Mardi Gras parade and big celebration downtown?

We even have a New Orleans-themed restaurant!

It doesn’t end there- I also reviewed menus from so many local restaurants, bakeries and other shops to find who is making Beignets, King Cakes, Paczki, New Orleans cocktails, and delicious Cajun & Creole food.

This is my new favorite Ohio winter hike! Our sec This is my new favorite Ohio winter hike!

Our second hike on our goal of hiking 24 new-to-us trails this year was also our first snowy hike of the year.

@lakemetroparks feed influenced me to add this park to our list. The vivid hemlock trees really pop against the snowy and leafless tree landscape. It was so worth the drive to get there.

What I liked most was how much visual and trail surface variety this park has. It’s a new favorite and I hope to return in the spring when an abundance of wildflowers are said to be in bloom. 

You’ve got to see this place, it’s dreamy.
