Shorty’s Santa Shop

Shorty’s Santa Shop
Now through December 30, 2025
Shorty’s North Shore & Shorty’s Waterfront

Shorty’s Santa Shop is back for its second season—and bigger, brighter, and more festive than ever. Both Shorty’s locations have transformed into full North Pole-inspired wonderlands. They are complete with thousands of twinkling lights, themed rooms, and immersive holiday photo ops. Guests can wander through Candy Cane Lane, Winter Wonderland, and Under the Tree. This year’s new addition is Grinchville, a mischievous Seussian takeover filled with playful décor. Santa’s Workshop also returns, featuring interactive scenes and the signature “Santa’s Ladders” display.

The seasonal cocktail menu features returning favorites and new holiday sips, from the Gingerbread Smash and Jingle Juice to the Gingerbread White Russian and fan-favorite Frozen Hot Chocolate. Shot Tree flights debut this year with three themed selections. Additionally, festive bites—like Cranberry BBQ Bliss Balls, Holiday Stuffing Bites, and the Goodtimes Gobblewich—round out the experience.

In December, both locations will host Santa Brunch every Saturday from 11 a.m.–3 p.m. This event is complete with themed drinks, hearty brunch dishes, and a visit from Santa himself. Shorty’s Santa Shop is all ages. Reservations are available online, with walk-ins welcome.

Hours vary by location.
