Toronto’s Union Station is getting its first-ever holiday pop-up bar with delicious themed cocktails and classic Christmas decorations — including a huge inflatable Christmas chicken.

Union Chicken, located in the heart of Union Station, serves as the perfect stop for dinner and drinks before or after concerts and sporting events at Scotiabank Arena. But this festive season, it’s transforming into the ultimate holiday destination, becoming a must-visit stop on your bar-hopping adventures.

Starting Nov. 16, the restaurant will bring all the cozy vibes, holiday cocktails, and delicious eats for the season.

What to expect

You’ll be left in awe the moment you step inside. As the restaurant plans on going all-in on Christmas decorations, expect holiday decor to consume the restaurant from top to bottom.

Along with all the classic Christmas decorations, guests can expect a few unique surprises, according to the team, including that giant inflatable chicken. And of course, expect holiday music to set the mood.

As for what you’ll be drinking, they’ve whipped up a full holiday beverage menu. It will feature handcrafted seasonal cocktails, non-alcoholic cocktails, beers, and festive seltzers.

During this time, the restaurant will collect toy donations in support of Toy Mountain. In addition to that, one of their featured holiday cocktails, Silent Night, will be giving back to the community, with a portion of its proceeds supporting Fort York Food Bank.

With all the holiday bars popping up in the city, be sure to add this one to your festive plans!
