It seems that almost every business around Cincinnati gets into the holiday spirit with some festive decor, both inside and out. It’s a great time of year to visit restaurants, bars, and other attractions as we celebrate the Christmas season. One spot in the Queen City goes all out when it comes to holiday decor and it’s done it once again this year. Miracle at The Overlook Lodge is a pop-up Christmas bar in Cincinnati that may just be the most festive place in the entire city. Kids don’t get to have all the fun this season, so grab a few friends (and maybe an “ugly” Christmas sweater) and go check it out.

Overlook Lodge in Pleasant Ridge may not look like much from the outside, but this unique bar is fun all year long.

For the past few years, Overlook Lodge has hosted Miracle, a pop-up Christmas bar.

Walking from the plain exterior into this transformed space is quite the experience.

The walls are literally wrapped in paper, there are lights and garland everywhere, and even the bar stools are perfectly outfitted in case Santa decides to stop by for a cocktail.

You may find a strand of lights and a little Christmas tree in most bars, but that is absolutely not the case here.

Every inch of the bar has something twinkling or sparkling - even the ceiling.

Of course, the drink menu has transformed for the holidays as well and there is something for everyone.

So many holiday events and light displays focus on the kids, so it’s a fun experience to visit a place that is all about the (slightly) older generations.
