   This year the tinsel and tavern was just not the same as last year. There were no food options, and you only got your table for 1 hour instead of 2 hours. Our server was great, just wish there was food and longer time to hang out.

   Last year's Tinsel Tavern was way better and we didn't have to pay to get in. Definitely not worth the $15 per person fee we had to pay this year. The vibe was so boring. They had minimal decor. Our reservation was at 8pm on Sat night and the place was dang near empty, they kicked us out at 9:45pm because the Shark Bar goes back to nightclub at 10 but there was no one there trying to get in and they had plenty of room if people wanted to come in for nightclub. Our waitress was less than friendly, acted like she didn't want to be there. Save your money and go somewhere else for Christmas pop-up bar. Will not go back again.

   The phone number posted is inaccurate. It is just a recording message and does not allow you to connect with anyone if you need to reschedule/cancel.

   15 dollar per person cover, bad drinks, no foods or entertainment. a too bright bar with lots of holiday decor. With a wee bit more effort could have been a good experience. Wasn’t though :(

   No food here but it was a fun holiday pop up bar decoration and drinks. The service was pretty bad, but the drinks were good. It just took a good while to get our server to even come by our table.

   I was sat and was still waiting on my friend. The waitress that came to the table had zero personality and really no desire to work or get your drinks to you in a timely manner. I forget her name. She was a tall blond and barely interacted with us. Not a great experience with her at all. I mean she could have tried a little harder since you are paying $15 cover charge and the drinks are pretty pricey! Once my 90 minutes was up me and my girlfriend went and sat at the bar and Connor waited on us! He was so sweet and talked with us and we had the best time with him. It's a shame he didn't start our night. Thanks Connor for saving our experience. The bar itself is decorated cute and we made the most of our time.

   My girlfriends and I really enjoyed Tinel Tavern! We got great Christmas drinks. The wait staff was very nice and attentive. They did a wonderful job on their Christmas decorations. Definitely recommend going for a fun night out!
