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).

Love Caesar Salad? Here’s another Cleveland spot Love Caesar Salad? Here’s another Cleveland spot to try!

✨Be sure to like & save this post to remember to visit ✨

We finally tried @lindeyslakehouseflats and I was happy to see a Caesar 🥗  on the menu, my favorite salad 🙌🏼 and now on my list of great Caesar Salads to get in Cleveland. (DM me for the full list of you want it)

The salad was coated in dressing, the croutons were crunchy but not too crunchy, and the slice of cheese on top was a fun addition. I ordered mine with chicken added, perfect!

In addition to tasty food, they’ve got a huge patio space, killer views of the Cuyahoga River, and if you’re lucky one of the huge ships will come through during your meal, always fun to watch.

Where should I try a Caesar Salad next? Follow me for more Cleveland & travel adventures!

6 epic and easy views you can see in Rocky Mountai 6 epic and easy views you can see in Rocky Mountain National Park!

✨Save for future visit✨

These epic views deliver with minimal effort because sometimes you don’t want to hike a few miles to be rewarded with breathtaking scenes.

📍Alluvial Fan: this spot has a very interesting history you can read about on site, it’s also very relaxing to listen to the rushing waters.

📍Hiking Bear Lake to Nymph Lake & beyond. It’s an easy hike depending on the season. We had partial snow so we rented spikes and poles. The views on the way up are dreamy. You can continue past Nymph to several other lakes if you’re up for it.

📍Sprague Lake is just a 30 minute drive from the park entrance and one of our favorite spots. Epic sunrises nature, and mountains-reflecting-in-water views.

📍Moraine Park is huge and within the National Park boundaries. The views are vast.

📍Driving Trail Ridge Road will take you as far as 12,000 feet above sea level 😳 with many stops along the way, this is a great way to enjoy the park. During winter it’s closed and opens gradually through mid- May once the snow melts enough. 

Intro screen: Many Parks Curve seen from Trail Ridge Road

Closing scene: View #6: 📍Glacier Creek at Prospect Canyon
