Book an Igloo Today and Get In On One of NEPA’s Coolest Snowy Season Dining Trends
There comes a time in the early winter season in most northeastern towns when Mother Nature lets us know it’s time to move inside. Local restaurants, to the dismay of eager diners, pack up their patio tables and cover up their fire pits. It’s just too cold to dine outside, even for the hardiest of souls.
That was until a handful of innovative, local eateries figured out a way — heated outdoor dining igloos. The often adorably decorated dining bubbles offer a one-of-a-kind, climate controlled dining experience. Many come complete with space heaters, music and blankets. And they make for some of the most enviable Instagram pics. Just be sure to tip those brave, bundled up servers.
