Deck The Halls Bar

HANDS DOWN THE CUTEST CHRISTMAS/HOLIDAY BAR + LOUNGE in San Francisco. We stumbled upon this spot while exploring during SantaCon. It was our absolute favorite out of 4 different places we went to! We absolutely LOVED IT. Out of the 4 bars we visited, Deck the Halls blew them ALL out of the water! Highly recommend.This spot has the absolute BEST and most creative Christmas festive decorations. I love how they had the super cute Santa, Deer, Snowman, + other Christmas inflatable balloons up on the ceiling, sooo cute! All of the holiday decorations are super cute, trendy, cool, and there is a ton of different places to take super cute holiday photo shots. We loved everything about this spot. The music was fun + diverse, the cover was super low like $5(?) the bartenders were attentive and made the drinks super fast. Deck the Halls had the BEST, most creative holiday drinks. I got the Defrosty Icee cocktail, absolutely loved it! It's a frozen vodka margarita with maraschino, citrus, and flavored whip cream on top and a super cute festive snowman cup, loveee it! They also give you your bill in a Christmas card. Whoever designed this place and the drinks deserves a HUGE raise! All the Christmas details are catered to perfection. lol.Additionally I also LOVE how they serve food too! Yay! We went to 4 bar/lounges and Deck the Halls was the ONLY place with food available. Thank you! I ordered the Elf's Empanadas and the Sausage Stuffers rolls they were pretty good. I like the Elf's Empanadas best.HIGHLY recommend! Check out Deck the Halls if you're in San Francisco for Christmas time.

Came by on Christmas Eve, which I believe is their second to last day of opening for the year. One of the better holiday decorated bars. Cute red arch upon entry with a plethora or every imaginable holiday decor inside. Decorations also aren't chaotic. Cute sleigh photo opp area too that you can get in. Menu includes food and drinks but we only got drinks. Some drinks were better than others. Wasn't a fan of the defrosty icee but I did enjoy the grinchmas, fireplace, and snow globe. If you like sours, then you'll enjoy the grinchmas. If you like refreshing tonics, you'll like the snow globe. I did find that the snow globe, while refreshing, was very citrusy. When sipping water afterwards, there was a strong citrus flavor that lingered in my mouth. Fireplace is a must if you want a fire show with flames and cinnamon. Drinks are $17 which I feel is pretty average for holiday pop ups. Staff was friendly and energetic.

Was so glad to check out Deck the Halls, it gave me just the festive cheer I was looking for before Christmas! The inside was decorated really well, and they had a lot of seating available when I went with a group of 4 on Thursday night. They had some great holiday drink options that came in cute holiday themed glasses. The bar tenders were also super fun and attentive. They do serve food, but I wasn't a huge fan of the chicken nuggets I ordered. They tasted like McDonalds nuggets and were $15 for only a few pieces. They also didn't sit too well.. Other than that, had a great experience! Would highly recommend if you're looking for a festive bar in the area.

Very cute pop up bar for Christmas, but these drinks were awful. We couldn't even finish them. The atmosphere is adorable. Maybe we just need to try new drinks but for $17 I would hope to at least enjoy it.

Super cute Christmas pop up bar -- we came here around 8:30 PM on a Friday and there was no wait to get in. All the cocktails are $17 each and I tried the Cranberry Negroni, which had a cute presentation and tasted decent. I would say that this is a typical pop up bar where you're paying for the ambiance with overpriced mid-level cocktails, but they are at least cute and themed. This was one of the nicer ones time since the decorations were cute, it wasn't too crowded, and ordering cocktails didn't take long.

THIS IS THE CHRISTMAS BAR!!!Decorations are over the top and executed in the most elaborate ways!! Exceptionally curated, loving touches and thoughtful designs everywhere inside the joint. IG worthy opportunities galore. Out of this world AMAZINGLY delicious hand crafted cocktails. Many choices. Food options. Cute sht all over. The ambience was perfect!! Disco snowflake lights, bomb ass music, big booths, incredible inflatables. Long bar, lots of space. Lots of dancing. The service here was impressive!!! The people working had so much spirit!! Loving and holly jolly af!! Making majorly cool and intricate shots and cocktails that had as much flavor as they did flare. I couldn't stop drinking them they were ALL sooooooo good!! The coolest staff in the world! Well done and a much deserved round of applause! Do not miss it! Will be back!

Now this is a christmas bar. Super cozy, with lots of different themes in each corner of the bar. It's less busy since it's out of the main downtown area. Well decorated, super friendly staff and folks at the bar. Loved all the inflatables they had too! A whole lot of fun :)

Not the best holiday bar I've been to, but definitely the most expensive one I've been to. Decor was cute, but felt like the space could've used a little more holiday cheer given how big it was. I did like pop-art the wall of all the Christmas characters, haven't seen that anywhere before and thought it was super cool! We came by on a Saturday night and our group of 5 was let in right away. It was nice that it wasn't cramped, usually I feel like holiday bars are overflowing with people, but we were actually able to grab a seat here. We ordered their version of an espresso martini, and I don't think I've ever had an espresso tini that tasted so watered down. On top of that, the drinks were $17 before tax and an extra 4% surcharge, then the suggested tip for two drinks was $8. I love a holiday bar, but I'd rather go somewhere unfestive than spend $46 on two watery drinks.

The most fun Christmas themed bar in the neighborhood! We loved Shai & Gabriel when we met them at Rendezvous & this is at least the second year that Deck the Halls has been at this location. It was my favorite Deck the Halls location last year too. They are currently in soft opening and the official opening is November 30, 2023. We came for some drinks and I had a boozy hot chocolate, which was yummy. We remembered that last year, they had the Fir on Fire drink & this year, Shai added some fire to Krampus cocktail, as we requested to see the flambé. It's a fun, festive venue with holiday cheer & high party energy, thanks to Shai, Gabe & Michael. Come visit soon as they're only open until Christmas. We're planning on many future visits as we love them!

Not the craziness holiday pop up bar, but they do have a variety of decorations and neon pop up signs. We walked in on a random Thursday night and there was limited seating. There's a small handful of holiday cocktails and only a few of the drinks come in festive cups. The drinks are pretty average for taste and price point. We ordered the:*naughty shot turned into a drink (tequila, agave, citrus): kinda tasted like a more bitter Moscow mule*yellow snow (rum, lemon, curaçao): typical slush cocktailOverall, it was a cute enough holiday bar to visit if you're in the area, but there's also a bunch of other options.
