Kitsch Cocktail Pop-Up Miracle Coming To Milford's Central Tavern

MILFORD, MA — For an over-the-top holiday experience, head to Milford's Central Tavern this Christmas season.

The downtown bar and restaurant will be home to a Miracle pop-up cocktail bar beginning on Black Friday and running through New Year's Eve. Patrons will get to bask in kitschy Christmas decor while enjoying specially crafted cocktails.

"Miracle is a Christmas-themed pop-up cocktail bar that serves holiday cocktails in a festive setting," the company says. "With kitschy holiday decor, professionally-developed cocktails and the nostalgic energy of the best office party you’ve ever been to, Miracle is sure to get even the grouchiest Grinch in the holiday spirit."

Miracle began in 2014 when New York City restaurateur Greg Boehm transformed his bar, Mace, into a holiday wonderland (with plenty of tinsel). The concept has spread across the nation, but Central Tavern and Mystic Station in Malden are the only two Miracle pop-ups in Massachusetts this year.

Along with the decor and holiday-themed cocktails, Miracle and the Central Tavern will host a series of holiday events this year:

• Nov. 29 — Canvas paint night to benefit the Milford Food Pantry
• Dec. 5 — Breakfast with Santa Claus
• Dec. 10 — Ugly sweater party with DJ Eduardo Alves from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m.
• Dec. 13 — Paint your own ornament night
• Dec. 17 — Comedy night (tickets required)
• Dec. 20 — Create a holiday centerpiece (fundraiser)
• Dec. 31 — New Year's Eve party (tickets required)
