Winter temperatures can get pretty chilly in Washington. Igloo dining allows guests to immerse themselves in the festive charm of the season outside, while still enjoying the comforts of a classic restaurant experience. The following are some of the top cutest igloo dining experiences in Washington.
LE IGLOO at Maximilien Restaurant
Seattle
Perhaps you’ve dreamed of dining in an igloo—but odds are you haven’t pictured igloo dining to be quite as elegant as an excursion in “le igloo.” Located at Seattle’s famed Pike Place Market, Maximilien Restaurant is one of the city’s finest French establishments—and its outdoor igloo dining offerings match the elevated, pristine aesthetic of the restaurant’s space. There are three igloos to choose from; two of which have a minimum of four guests (perfect for a double date!). In addition to a delicious dining experience, guests take in breathtaking views of Puget Sound, Elliott Bay, the Olympic Mountains and more. The experience requires a $200 pre-paid minimum spend and is only for those 12-plus. The snow globe is available daily until Dec. 17, from 5 to 8 p.m. For more information, visit www.maximilienrestaurant.com.
