Pop-Up Igloo Bar Set To Open Dec. 5 at Rockefeller Center’s Ice Rink
Looking for the coldest beer in town? A pop-up Igloo Bar is set to open rinkside at the Ice Rink at Rockefeller Center from December 5th through January 7th. Designed like an Eskimo’s retreat, Igloo Bar will be situated outdoors on the north-west corner of the rink, serving as a heated refuge for skaters and visitors to Rockefeller Center. Guess it’s not gonna be made out of ice. They’ll be serving up an array of apps and some cold-ass beers ($6-7), wines by the glass ($9-10), hot spiked drinks ($11) and winter-themed cocktails ($12). Here’s a look at the full menu…
