Holiday cocktails are served on a Christmas tree-shaped display at Jingle Bar inside Harry's Ocean Bar & Grille in Cape May. The seasonal pop-up returns for 2026 with themed drinks, Christmas decorations and a new heated Grinch-themed outdoor tent.
Christmas trees aren't just for decorations at Jingle Bar in Cape May. They're also being used to serve cocktails.
The holiday pop-up returned to Harry's Ocean Bar & Grille on Friday, Nov. 13, bringing Christmas lights, seasonal drinks and a new Grinch-themed outdoor space to the beachfront restaurant.
Groups can order a tabletop Christmas tree holding four holiday cocktails for $60, choosing from drinks such as the green Jingle Grinch, peppermint-flavored Jingle Bell Candy Cane Crush and Espresso Peppermint-Tini. Larger options are available with six or eight cocktails.
New this year is a heated outdoor tent decorated around the Grinch, with fire pits nearby. The restaurant is also filled with Christmas decorations and will host live music and special events throughout the season.

On Saturday, Dec. 19, the Grinch will appear at a morning brunch, followed by a Grinch vs. Santa costume party that evening. Other events include karaoke, dueling pianos and a Toys for Tots fundraiser.
The pop-up will wrap up with a New Year's Eve celebration featuring dinner specials, a DJ and dancing. Party tickets cost $95 per person, plus taxes and fees, and include an open bar from 9 p.m. to midnight.
