We have moved ahead from Halloween back into Christmas At Tinsel Philadelphia. This is my second year visiting this unique space and I got the opportunity to see the new drink specials, and the new improvements. If you haven’t had an opportunity to visit Tinsel, be sure to get there.
Exterior
One of the first things you notice is the new exterior! It’s beautiful. It’s eye catching and I love it! Tinsel is an explosion of holiday cheer. Its a great place to enjoy drinks and fun with your friends. Tinsel spares no decoration for the outside as well as inside as well.
Completely Instagrammable the new exterior is even more inviting. One of the things that hasn’t changed is it visibility. As soon as I rounded the corner the Christmas lights let me know I was in the right place! Which is key in helping me locate where I needed to be.
As soon as you walk in you get the nostalgia of Christmas. The presents, the hanging elves, nutcracker and the infamous Santa throne! I mean I’m hoping just from first take it pushes me further up the Nice List.
I love the ways the colors of the season pull you in! Of course I wore my favorite sweater and linked up with my girlfriends! This year’s theme is an ode to all of the Christmas magic from film to movies.

Oh and of course it’s also avoid the drinks!
Heat Miser
Don’t worry they do have a keepsake drink and it will be available when it opens! They are well known for it and they aren’t gonna disappoint.
Cha Cha Cha Hey
Tinsel Christmas Explosion
I like how they kept true to theme as always. There’s not a inch of Tinsel that doesn’t have something on it. I think my second favorite spot to the throne room is this the peppermint walk seen above. It reminds me of my grandfather’s house. He always had candy trays out for Christmas and this way takes me back to those fun moments.
I always love the screen display. This one shows a fireplace and I’m not sure if they will rotate and have different things showing during the season but I always love to look at it while sipping on my drinks.
The greeting card menus are absolutely everything. Have you ever gone to an old school house where they display Christmas cards of the years past? It gave me that feel except they had the drink menu inside. I really loved it.
Tinsel Bar Look
Here’s a look of Tinsel from across the bar. If you have never been you will immediately be surprised at how much room is inside. We were invited to the media party and there was enough room to host us all. There had to be around 200 participants.
Tinsel is a Christmas Pop Up
So you know that Tinsel is the a Christmas spot to be in this season. They open officially on Friday November 2th! Definitely consider dropping in before you start cooking your Thanksgiving dinner. Or bring your out of town guests this weekend so you can be the talk of the town as you will be considered to be in the know of the hot spot. Don’t miss your opportunity all Christmas season long!!
Don’t forget to be take a picture in Santa’s throne! Especially if you’re like me and you are Santa it will be well deserved adult fun! Thank you Tinsel. Thank you to Aversa PR for the invite! Enjoy and make sure you get an elf to drive you home so you can stay on the nice list.
