The igloo experience is fun however it would be nice if Braxton could have decorated them for the holidays. They are just kind of boring. Also it would be nice if Braxton had a few holiday themed drinks. The food service from Dewey's was awesome! For $35, it's just kind of boring! You have to go up to the bar to order your drinks and no decorations. Basically all you get is a heated tent!

Preferred the space when there was couches and a table, felt very tight for 8 people and a table. As a group of four couples who ordered food… the food had to sit on our laps and it was not enjoyable while eating. Otherwise, seating was comfortable and the igloo was warm. Decent experience for 2.5 hours

This was a very cute experience and it was private. However, there was only one bartender the entire time. You spent most of your time standing in line vs being in the actual igloo. Also my drink was not made as described. The food was good, but did take a long time to be delivered.

All of the credit goes to Dewey’s. They delivered our food right to the igloo. The igloo was cool for about 30 min and then if was just cold and kind of a pain to get in and out of. We had access to the rooftop bar but had to unzip, zip, unzip and zip the igloo each time. We did it but probably won’t do it again.

The rooftop igloo is a cool concept - being out in the winter weather on a rooftop with city views - cool. The execution isn’t up to par. 1.) It was cold as an ice cube in that igloo. The one little heater mounted in the top of the igloo is "ok”, but everyone’s feet were freezing. They really need a better warming option. 2.) Having to zip up / unzip and move outside the igloo only to stand in line in the freezing cold at the walk-up bar is really lame ( and very cold). There was 1 guy working in the walk-up bar with what seemed two others mulling about. More heat in the Igloo and More help in the bar OR a completely better way to order drinks. Standing in the bitter cold on a rooftop is – well – very cold. The pizza from Dewy’s next door was excellent. It by far saved the night. Net – Very Cool idea - not so Good on the execution.

We do the igloos every year and it’s always well done. My only complaint this year is that they only had one bartender on the roof-she was wonderful, but we spent a lot of time in line.

The cutest little igloo I’ve ever seen. Amazing experience, would definitely bring a board game and a speaker and some cozy blankets it’s gorgeous.
