Celebrate Halloween with themed drinks and spooky guests at ‘Nightmare on 8th Street’ pop-up bar in Little Havana – WSVN 7News | Miami news, weather, sports

October is almost over, but that’s a good thing, because it means we’re one day closer to Halloween, and if you’re looking for a fun place to celebrate the spooky season for the rest of the month, Deco is checking out a octopus – This is real Hallow-win.

Here at SoFlo, we play by our own rules, and at this pop-up bar in Little Havana, the number one rule is to have fun.

Alexis Tollinchi: “During the month of October, we transformed the Dead Flamingo into the ultimate Halloween pop-up called ‘Nightmare on Eight Street’.”

A nightmare? More like a Halloween lover’s dream! This place is fully decked out ghost-tacular decoration, and this is only the beginning.

Alexis Tollinchi: “We love Halloween here. We wanted to give people the chance to celebrate all month long with different parties and events every week and of course the chance to dress up.”

Keep it casual, or go all out, because the people here really get into character.

Alexis Tollinchi: “When you get to ‘Nightmare on Eighth Street,’ you never know who you’re going to sit with. It could be Ursula. It could be Bob from Beetlejuice, or it could be Freddy serving you drinks from behind the bar.”

Speaking of drinks, this pop-up is mixing up fun cocktails, all themed around classic movies.

Alexis Tollinchi: “Right now we have four Halloween drinks at all times, and each special event will have its own menu.”

Oooo, tell us more!

Alexis Tollinchi: “One of our cocktails is called Carrie’s Prom Night. It is inspired by the movie “Carrie”. It’s a tequila-based cocktail. We top it off with grenadine so it looks like there’s blood all over the cup, and it looks gory, but it’s delicious.”

Gory is right up Freddy’s alley, but Bob manages to add the finishing touch: a flower garnish on top.

Speaking of fun toppers…

Alexis Tollinchi: “Another one of ours is called Deep Blue Sea. This one is inspired by ‘Jaws’. It’s our house rum blend with Blue Curaçao. It comes with some shark as a garnish. She has small body parts that stick out of the cup.

Sounds like the perfect drink… for the ultimate sea witch.

Cathy Correa: “I love it. This is where I come to find all my poor unfortunate souls.”

She’s just kidding! At least I hope so.

Cathy Correa: “I love the atmosphere. I love the decoration. I’m all for it. This is definitely the best place to celebrate Halloween.”
