Holiday Magic Lives in These Three Christmas Bars in Massachusetts

You know those Christmas pop-up radio stations that switch to all Christmas music for the holiday season?

Well, the same is true for some bars which celebrate the holidays like no other saloons.

Massachusetts is home to three unique and celebrated Christmas bars, collectively known as the "Miracle Bars", which is trademarked.

These holiday-themed pop-up bars transform ordinary drinking establishments into festive winter wonderlands every year, offering a magical escape filled with seasonal cheer.

The concept originated in New York in 2014 and has since spread to various cities, with Massachusetts being home to three of the most-loved locations.

At these bars, patrons are immersed in holiday décor, featuring Christmas lights, wreaths, tinsel, and even faux snow, creating a warm atmosphere perfect for celebrating the season.

The three Miracle Christmas Bars in Massachusetts are found in Cambridge, Malden, and Newburyport, each providing a distinctive and immersive holiday experience.

Cambridge’s "Miracle" location is a good one at The Kimpton Marlowe Hotel and features a 6-foot-tall Santa, holiday themed drinks, over the top decorations, a marble fireplace, lots of garland, and twinkling lights at  25 Edwin H. Land Boulevard, Cambridge, MA.

Malden's Mystic Station, at 139 Pleasant Street, is similarly decked out with quirky, nostalgic holiday decorations and serves up inventive drinks offerings, such as the “Christmapolitan” or “Jingle Balls Nog.” There's also an extensive menu of holiday-themed shots and warm cocktails.

Newburyport is home to The Goat, a popular New Hampshire bar already in Manchester, Portsmouth, and Hampton.  With the grand opening of this Massachusetts "Goat", it was natural to extend the "Miracle" theme to the first Massachusetts location at 54 Merrimac Street.

Whether you're enjoying a cocktail with friends or making new ones over a warm spiked cider, the Miracle Christmas Bars in Massachusetts are a beloved destination for holiday revelers seeking a truly magical experience.
