Our party of 4 had a reservation at 6:45pm on a Wednesday night. There was no one there to greet us. I then went to the bartender, and asked, and she said, I'm sorry we're busy. Someone didn't show up for work. So, we found a table, and sat down. We waited for about 15 minutes, and no one came to take our order. We then went to the bar, and waited another 10 minutes, and weren't acknowledged. So, we just left. Very disappointed, as we'd been planning this night, and looking forward to it. The decorations were very festive, but that's about the only thing that was positive. I definitely would not recommend this.

We had a reservation at 5:45p for Miracle Bar at the Tavern. We show up at our schedule reservation and we are greeted by the doorman. He’s asked if we are here for the event. We told him we were here for the Miracle Bar. He told us to go to the bartender or hostess. We couldn’t find any hostess so we went to the bar. I asked the bartender if it was open seating. She said yes, but the kitchen is closing and we won’t be serving bites. I told her we were here for our Miracle Bar reservation and asked why would the kitchen be closing. She said someone just rented out the entire space and they would be closing all food and bar service for the event. This was really disappointing. Even if this was a planned event, then why would there be an options to make a reservation at 5:45p only to close at 6pm. I could have made another reservation elsewhere instead of driving out to Arlington. A complete waste of time. If you are going to make a reservation here, then you better call ahead to make sure there aren’t any events planned that evening that could interfere with your night because your time isn’t valued at the Tavern.

Myself and other friends booked a reservation for 12/13 @ 5pm for our friend’s birthday only to be told after we ordered drinks that we would have to leave by 6 due to a private event. The waitress was great. The system should not of allowed us to book a reservation if we were going to have to leave. There was only one waitress and one bartender service was slow. Very disappointed with the way we were asked to leave. Probably will not choose this pop up again.

Hi Rebecca, I am sorry to hear about your experience for your reservation. I did try to reach out and call the number on your reservation the day before to inform you about the private party. I called more than once with no answer. I do apologize that I was unable to reach you to inform you that the venue would be closing and you were more than welcome to arrive sooner. We strive to provide good service to our guests; we offered to have you moved to a different venue after you got your drink. I am glad to hear the waitress did a great job taking care of you

Didn’t get a drink for 45 minutes and what was brought was awful! I asked for a peppermint martini and got a plastic cup of rumplemints and charged $3 for “martini prep” my husband asked for a old fashioned and came 15 minutes after mine and it tasted like fruit punch and cheap liquor worst bar and drinks we have ever had
Miracle Bar at Texas Live!Responded on December 20, 2025
Thank you for your feedback, Melody. We're sorry to hear about your experience with the wait time and pricing. We strive to provide great service and you requested a peppermint martini. The manager offered to check if we had peppermint schnapps to make the martini correctly and you requested the drink be made with Rumplemintz. The drink was made, as a martini, but unfortunately all drink for this venue come in plastic cups unless it is a signature drink for Miracle with designated glassware. The old fashioned ordered was the gingerbread old fashioned which is made with a sweet gingerbread syrup. I do apologize that the drink as too sweet and your husband did not enjoy it. All drinks were removed off of your check by the manager prior to your payment. Thank you for your feedback.

This bar is so cute and the food is good! Think burgers and sandwiches. The fried mushrooms were delicious, so I recommend those for sure! I think the best cocktails we tried were the Christmapolitan, Rudolph's Replacement, and the Coconut Hot Chocolate (this one is on the small side, though). They had the cute old-school Christmas movies on TV and the place is truly decorated from floor to ceiling! Something to note is that they will not seat your party unless everyone has arrived.

Do NOT bother making reservations as ALL other reviews have said...I don't even know why they are taking reservations! Showed up on time with NO hostess to check you in, there was no reservation needed NOR was there ANYONE to help seat you or answer questions about anything. VERY disappointing. Cute atmosphere, that's all I can say...but the rest is non existent. ONE star for atmostphere and that is all.

Made a reservation for Miracle for Friday Jan 3rd, which wasn't outlandish to me as it was so close to the New Year, I figured this would be the last week it was open. Got tons of reminders about my reservation just to show up for the entire thing to have been taken down and told it ended Dec 24th and I never should have been able to make this reservation in the first place because the manager was supposed to take it down. Really sad because I got myself and my entire family hyped up to go try this out since we weren't able to last year (when we learned about it).

Christmas decorations were ok. Nothing over the top as we were expecting as a Christmas pop-up bar. Service wasn’t good as we were completely ignored for 10 mins after being seated and it didn’t get any better once we were attended to as our server’s attitude was cold. Food menu was very limited and they even ran out of some holiday items at 7p and it wasn’t even crowded at all. Drinks are severely overpriced and served in tiny plastic cups. The ambiance sucked. Hard to explain but the energy was dead. Vibes felt really off. Overall experience was extremely disappointing. We literally live down the street from here, but we’ll definitely never come back. Complete of money. We should’ve known we when approached the completely unenthusiastic hostesses when we arrived.

FAQs

Yes, Miracle Bar can be a fun, kitschy holiday date-night if you’re after an over-the-top, Instagrammable pop‑up experience with themed cocktails and festive decor. Guests frequently praise the decorations and some signature cocktails, but many also report slow service, long drink waits and pricey, small cocktails. For a better night, consider going earlier in the evening or on a weekday, and call ahead about reservations or event closures so your plans aren’t interrupted.

Miracle Bar at Texas Live! is open afternoons into late night: Mon–Thu and Sun from 3:00 pm–12:00 am; Fri–Sat from 3:00 pm–1:00 am. Hours are ideal for late afternoon cocktails through late-night holiday fun, call ahead for day‑of updates or special events.

Portion sizes tend to be small, Miracle Bar focuses on festive small bites and shareable bar food rather than large entrees. Several guests said food portions felt small for the price and recommended ordering appetizers to share. Expect snack-style plates and cocktail‑friendly bites rather than full dinner portions.

Casual dress is the stated dress code. Guests typically visit in relaxed, casual attire appropriate for a festive pop-up cocktail bar at Texas Live! If you’re attending a themed night, you may choose to dress up to match the event.

The atmosphere is very festive and highly decorated, think tinsel, twinkling lights and holiday movies, perfect for photos. That said, guests are split: many love the Instagrammable décor and themed vibe, while others found the energy low, service cold, or TVs (e.g., football) clashing with the holiday mood. Expect a novelty, holiday-pop‑up feel rather than a quiet, romantic spot.

Partial information available, Miracle Bar runs themed, family-friendly events (Santa/Grinch photo ops, cookie decorating), so families and groups do visit. However, guests noted strict seating policies (won’t seat until whole party arrives) and no clear accessibility details in the listing. If you need accessible seating or are bringing young children, call ahead to confirm accommodations and seating policies.
