Santa Claus has come to town and he's waiting for his chocolate chip cookies at the newly-unveiled Miracle pop-up bar in Toronto.

Miracle is a Christmas-themed pop-up cocktail bar run by the team behind Civil Liberties, which has been voted one of Canada's best bars, and their new festive venture is filled with so much cheer.

From November 17 until December 30, Torontonians can walk through the doors at 875 Bloor St West and enter a boozy version of the North Pole.

With elves serving delicious cocktails, Santas making magic happen behind the bar and holiday tunes playing throughout your visit, this bar is every Christmas-lover's fantasy.

The hot chocolate with marshmallows in a Santa mug is all I ever want #civilliberties #miracle #miracletoronto @Miracletoronto #miracletoronto #fyp #hotchocolate #christmas2023 #thingstodointoronto #thingstodo

The pop-up bar is covered in all things Christmas, with tinsel all over the walls and sparkly lights, gifts, candy canes and massive gingerbread men riding Santa's sleigh. Everywhere you look, you'll undoubtedly find something to amaze you.

There's even a massive teddy bear giving patrons hugs and it's so cute and fluffy.

In other words, there are so many photo opportunities at Miracle you'll want to dress cute and Christmassy for sure.

The fun doesn't end there. The bar serves a wide range of cocktails and mocktails, and you can sip from cups shaped like magical creatures like unicorns, dinosaurs and Santa's head.

There are over 13 cocktails, including the Jingle Balls Nog, Rudolph's Replacement, Snowball Old-Fashioned and Marshmallows & Unicorns.

Alcoholic cocktails range in price, starting at $16 and up to $18.

And if you weren't feeling anything boozy at Miracle, you can also enjoy mocktails like their hot apple cider and warm hot cocoa topped with marshmallows, which is delicious.

Also, to give back to the community, $1 from every drink sold at the pop-up bar will be donated to Nellie's, an organization that provides shelter, education and advocacy for women and children in the GTA.

If you're feeling peckish at the bar, they've got warm and gooey cookies from Courage Cookies being served along with sweet or savoury soft pretzels from Mr. Pretzels.

Also, if you want to take one of the festive mugs home you can — at a cost, of course. Ask your server and they'd be happy to give you a brand new one to buy.

You should also ask them about Secret Santa.
