Dine Inside A Private Heated Igloo At Pier 500 In Wisconsin

If you thought outdoor dining was best reserved for springtime, think again! At Pier 500, you can enjoy riverfront vistas even during the cold months of winter, thanks to heated igloos. But these aren’t your typical igloos. Lovingly referred to as "bigloos," the pop-up abodes are spacious, toasty, and the perfect place to warm up with friends on a brisk winter night. Take a look:

Promising a “pier-fect dining experience,” Pier 500 boasts amazing views of the St. Croix River and the historic Hudson Pier.

Its waterfront locale may not seem too appetizing in the winter; however, that couldn’t be further from the truth – and it’s all thanks to the eatery’s heated igloos!

The fact that the igloos are nice and toasty is just one perk, though. They're also super cozy, boasting comfy furniture and even blankets.

The igloos made their first appearance several years ago and are now a much-anticipated annual tradition.

When it comes to booking the igloos, there are several options. Some igloos are designed for formal dining, while others are set up for lounge-style seating.

You can reserve an igloo for up to eight people for two hours. This option requires a (minimum) $200 food and beverage purchase.

Don’t have eight people in your party? No problem; there’s a smaller package for four people. This option includes two hours in the igloo and requires a (minimum) $100 food and beverage purchase.

Lastly, there’s the Igloo Lounge Experience, which is designed for up to eight people. Those opting for this package can spend one hour in the igloo with no minimum food or beverage purchase.
