The Wrigleyville neighborhood in Chicago, Illinois has long been home to some of Chicago’s very best bars. But during the holiday season, it is also home to some of the best holiday pop up bars!
Yes, top venues in and around Wrigleyville have been transformed for the holiday season. In these Wrigleyville Wonderland pop-up bars you’ll find holiday-themed cocktails and drinks. And they are decorated so well you are bound to get in the holiday spirit.
There are so many good ones, you might worry you won’t get to them all. But a good way to visit a lot of them is with the Chicago Holiday Pop Up Bar Crawl! All these bars are within easy walking distance, so you can go from bar to bar with this crawl. And by participating in the crawl, you can get some great shots, like the following:
- Elf’d Up (normally known as Stretch): Candy Cane Forest Shot
- Santa Baby (normally known as Bamboo Club): Reindeer Games
- How the Grinch Stole Christmas (normally known as Moe’s Cantina): Grinch Tea Shot
- Santa’s Workshop (otherwise known as Old Crow Smokehouse): Gingerbread Shot
- Ugly Sweater Bar (otherwise known as Nola): Tipsy Reindeer Shot
- The Nutcracker (otherwise known as Merkle’s): Espresso Martini Shot w/ Coffee Bean
- Rizzo’s Candy Cane Lane (otherwise known as Rizzo’s Bar & Inn): “Nice Shot!”
- Almost Home Alone (otherwise known as Almost Home Tavern): The Filthy Animal Shot
To start your evening, you’ll pick up a bar crawl passport and souvenir postcard at How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
All of this leads you to Chicago’s very own Christkindlmarket right next to Wrigley Field. This German-style Christmas market gives you an opportunity for unique holiday gift shopping, great drinks (like Mulled wine!) and Christmas treats, and a lot of fun. A great way to finish your evening.
The bar crawl itself lasts three hours, so pace yourself to make sure you enjoy it all!
