A Season to Shine: Holiday Magic at The Ragtrader & BoPeep
There’s nothing quite like Christmas in NYC — the lights glow brighter, the city feels cozier, and every corner becomes a scene from a holiday movie. At The Ragtrader & BoPeep, that magic takes center stage the moment you walk through our doors. This season, our Midtown space transforms into one of the most festive restaurants in NYC, shimmering with warmth, nostalgia, and holiday spirit.
A Winter Wonderland in Midtown Manhattan
Tucked in the heart of the Garment District — just steps from Madison Square Garden, Bryant Park Winter Village, and the holiday bustle of Herald Square — The Ragtrader has become a favorite stop for holiday dining in NYC.
This year’s décor brings together twinkling Christmas lights, lush garlands, soft candlelit glow, and vintage accents that celebrate the building’s history. Whether you’re meeting friends for a cozy Christmas dinner, planning a winter date night in NYC, or seeking a warm escape from the cold, our space feels like a festive retreat built just for the season.
Holiday Nights, Speakeasy Style
Downstairs at BoPeep Cocktail & Highball Store, the holidays take on an even more magical glow. Our speakeasy transforms into one of the most charming Christmas bars in NYC, complete with velvet seating, candlelit tables, and live music every night.
Sip a winter cocktail, toast with holiday bubbles, or cozy up near the piano as our talented singers fill the room with soulful classics and seasonal favorites. BoPeep embodies everything people love about holiday things to do in NYC — intimate, warm, nostalgic, and full of that unmistakable New York charm.
