Experiences
Find the Pickle
Our legendary scavenger hunt returns. Somewhere in the bar, a few sneaky pickle ornaments are hiding in plain sight. Spot one, flag down an elf (or bartender), and claim your prize: a free merry shot.
Dear Santa Wall
Write your wish list—or confession—to Santa, then hang it on the Dear Santa Wall with the rest of the North Pole’s finest secrets.
Secret Santa
Scratch-Off
Bring a toy to donate to the Twin Cities Toy Drive and get a Secret Santa Scratch-Off card—you could win a free drink. Give a gift, get a little magic back.
Storybook Menu
Flip through a cocktail menu straight from the North Pole’s archives. Each page tells a tale—from candy cane cosmos to toasted espresso martinis—illustrated by local artists and written like a story you definitely shouldn’t read to kids.
Down Through the Chimney isn’t just a bar—it’s a full-blown North Pole playground. Between sips and selfies, dive into games, secrets, and surprises tucked in every corner.
Calendar of Events
There’s always something happening at the North Pole. From Ugly Christmas Sweater Wednesdays to surprise themed nights, check back often for new events and reasons to come back (again and again).
The Spirit of Giving
The holidays are all about spreading cheer—and we’re making it easy to do just that.
We’re proud to partner with the Twin Cities Toy Drive to help bring joy to local kids in need. Drop off a new, unwrapped toy at the bar and we’ll make sure it finds its way under the right tree. In return, we’ll gift you a Secret Santa card for the potential to win a free prize.
Then head to Blitzen’s, where you can sign your name on a dollar bill and post it to the wall—one of the most spirited sights in the North Pole. At the end of the season, we’ll donate every single dollar to People Serving People—and best of all, we’ll match the total amount raised to double the impact.
Because the best kind of holiday spirit is the one that’s shared.
