A bar · Midtown · on three of my lists

Frosty’s Christmas Bar.

Worth it, says Antonina. Admittedly. The food is a little bland, so I say stick to the drinks and gawk at the decorations.

Before you go, in my words

Quoted from my own lists
Good to know

Since Frosty’s is one of the best bars open on Christmas day in NYC I highly recommend making reservations. The decorations are second to none, there are plenty of photo-taking opportunities.

Worth it

Frosty’s is made up of four bars spread across three floors making it one of the best Christmas pop-up bars in New York City (and it’s open on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day!).

Every year during the holidays, Bacall’s restaurant in Times Square welcomes Frosty’s, an incredible Christmas pop-up. Frosty’s is made up of four bars spread across three floors making it one of the best Christmas pop-up bars in New York City (and it’s open on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day!).

Tickets start at $20 per person and grant you access to all three floors. However, if you choose to visit Bacall’s (the restaurant portion of the extravaganza) you won’t require a ticket. Admittedly. The food is a little bland, so I say stick to the drinks and gawk at the decorations.

Since Frosty’s is one of the best bars open on Christmas day in NYC I highly recommend making reservations. The decorations are second to none, there are plenty of photo-taking opportunities.

    Christmas cocktails are available, and a crowd favorite is the Bad Santa, a house-made coquito.

    What I wrote thereFold it away

    Frosty’s is one of New York City’s biggest Christmas pop-up bars, with a whopping four bars across three floors. With that much real estate, the photo-taking opportunities and the drinks are abundant. Christmas cocktails are available, and a crowd favorite is the Bad Santa, a house-made coquito.

    The Christmas pop-up also has a family-friendly restaurant, so kids can take advantage of some photo-taking opportunities too. Tickets to the pop-up bar experience range between $30-$40 depending on the day, but the restaurant offers free reservations (fair warning, though, the food at the restaurant is mediocre; stick to small bites and drinks).

    What I wrote thereFold it away

    Frosty’s stands out as one of NYC’s most festive restaurants, featuring four bars across three floors. The decorations are unmatched, providing numerous photo opportunities. Admission is $20 per person, granting access to all floors. Additionally, Frosty’s is among the top restaurants open on Christmas Day in New York City.

    Even better, though, Bacall’s (the host restaurant) is equally decked out and doesn’t require you to purchase a ticket. Admittedly, the food is a little bland, but the real reason to visit is for the decorations and drinks.
