Ready for something new? Igloo and heated patio dining is offered by many places throughout the Twin Cities. Make a reservation for your next date night or girlfriends’ dinner!
How about taking your dining plans outdoors? Yes! Even in these frigid temps, you can still dine or enjoy a beverage outside – comfortably!
So many twin cities restaurants and bars creatively arrange their outdoor patios with igloos, fires, or heat lamps so that we Minnesotans can still enjoy the outdoors all year round.

Pier 500 on the St. Croix! A great spot if you’re on the east side of the cities 🙂
