Disney Boardwalk Restaurants Guide

One of the main draws of the Disney BoardWalk is the wide array of Disney Restaurants. Not only found on the boardwalk itself, but also inside each Disney Resort. Giving you loads of meal options, from seafood to burgers to Italian, here are all the Disney Boardwalk Restaurants to try. From ice cream places to sit down restaurants. Whether you’re on a break from a day at EPCOT or Hollywood Studios, or just here for the day, here’s the list of places to eat on the Disney Boardwalk.

Boardwalk Deli | Boardwalk Inn

While there are many Disney Boardwalk Restaurants, there are only a few that offer quick counter service food options. Offering deli and breakfast sandwiches, bagels, cupcakes and quick to-go options, you can grab food here and eat at the tables overlooking the water on the Boardwalk. Plus, if you have a Disney Refillable Mug, you can refill your mug here too! 

Trattoria al Forno | Boardwalk Inn

A fancy Italian Restaurant is always welcome and at Trattoria al Forno you can get amazing food at even better prices. We love Trattoria al Forno for breakfast! With some amazing avocado toast, omelets, and the best-iced coffee, you will want to stop here on your next vacation. You can even just walk up to the counter to check availability. Offering lunch and dinner too, you can expect all sorts of wonderful Italian fare, wood-fired pizzas, lasagnas and more. And all in that $15- $35 per plate price range. And if you’re not up for a table-service meal, you can grab a wonderful slice of pizza from the walk-up window. This is one of the best Disney Boardwalk Restaurants. Check out the Trattoria al Forno Menu. 

Pizza Window | Boardwalk Inn

This pizza is by far some of the best we’ve had at Disney. It’s a large pie with tons of flavor at an OK cost. Note: You will not get the same pizza at Trattoria al Forno if you go inside as those are mostly small flatbread/wood-fired pizzas. For the best stuff, head to the Pizza Window and enjoy it on the boardwalk. 

AbracadaBar Lounge and Bar | Boardwalk Inn

Located next door to Trattoria al Forno, this bar features a theme of magic. Courtesy of the magicians of old who used to frequent this bar, you can find glowing elixirs and illusions galore. AbracadaBar is open from 4:00 pm to 12:00 am and offers magic at the ready. Peruse the AbracadaBar Lounge Menu for a look at drinks and bar basics, like pizza, fries, and charcuterie. 

AbracadaBar offers a unique experience whether you’re up for drinks or a small plate of something to snack, the decor here is worth noticing. With hidden Magic Tricks in the wallpaper, and cool decorations in the glass cases that line the walls, there is plenty to see here while you sip your next drink.

Flying Fish | Boardwalk Inn

One of the more popular Disney Boardwalk Restaurants, this one is considered “signature”. If you’re looking for elevated seafood, then the Flying Fish on the Disney BoardWalk should be on your Disney Restaurant list. Offering a wide variety of seafood, this place also offers a a kids menu, vegetarian options, non-seafood options and an elegant atmosphere. An excellent date night, the location of Flying Fish, gets you close to evening entertainment on the Boardwalk. While the prices here are a bit steep, for many this is considered some of the best seafood, outside of Disney Springs. Check out the Flying Fish Menu.

Boardwalk Ice Cream | Boardwalk Inn

This ice cream shop serves ice cream cones, sundaes, and milkshakes in fun flavors and offers outdoor seating overlooking the BoardWalk. With classic ice cream flavors, and delicious treats mixed with brownies, and syrups there is plenty to choose from here. You get great views while being able to dig into a treat that can easily be sharable. Browse the BoardWalk Ice Cream Menu before you go, so you can plan what to get!

Carousel Coffee | Boardwalk Inn

This little coffee shop offers a variety of latte options, juices, teas, sandwiches, wraps, pastries and more. Just inside Disney’s Boardwalk Inn, it’s the only place you can get crafted coffee on the boardwalk. Inspired by the Mary Poppins history of carousels, this small counter, located just off the lobby, includes a seating area, and grab and go food case for easy food options. 

The Cake Bake Shop Restaurant & Bakery | Disney Boardwalk Inn

One of the first Disney Boardwalk Restaurants you’ll see when coming upon the Disney Boardwalk Inn, is the Cake Bake Shop. Offering both a walk in bakery and a sit down restaurant if you’re looking for fancy dining and desserts, this is the place! Serving cake slices, macrons, and cupcakes in the bakery, you can order your treats at the counter.

The restaurant, however, is signature dining and requires a reservation. At the restaurant you can order delicate dishes, sandwiches and even high tea. There’s an eye on quality over quantity here, so be aware the the price is high, and the portions small. The atmosphere, however, is very elegant, and perfect for bachelorette parties, mother daughter trips, and special occasions.

Crew’s Cup Lounge | Yacht Club

This Disney Bar and Lounge at Disney’s Yacht Club, is classic “old money.” With heavy wooden accents on the walls, at the bar, booths and tables, this one will make you feel like you walked into an old time gentleman’s club. The official bar area of the Yachtsman’s Steakhouse, if you’re looking for small plates, you can grab truffle fries, rib sliders, cheese dip, and a “yacht dog”!

Yachtsman’s Steakhouse | Yacht Club

Considered THE place to get a good steak at Walt Disney World, be prepared to pay a little more at Yachtsman’s Steakhouse. This is your typical steak and fish-type table service restaurant. Not really any vegetarian options here. That said there are delectable sides, desserts, and drinks to add a little flair to your surf and turf meal. Choose your favorites on the Yachtsman’s Steakhouse Menu.

Ale and Compass Restaurant & Lounge | Yacht Club

Serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, Ale and Compass offers a classy and elegant atmosphere, at a budget price. Offering a breakfast buffet, flatbreads, salads, meats, and more. We most like the chocolate waffles at breakfast and the flatbreads at dinner. Of course the buffalo cauliflower and and pasta at dinner are wonderful choices too!

This restaurant also has one of the poshest Disney bars we’ve found. The Lounge of Ale and Compass has an excellent atmosphere with gorgeous blue decor, consider this your grown-up escape. If you long for days gone past where you could sit in a velvet chair in front of a servant-cleaned fireplace and sip your favorite scotch, then you’ve found heaven. The menu is budget-friendly with options in the lowest price bracket of $15-$35. Check out the Ale and Compass Menu. 

Cape May Cafe | Beach Club

At Cape May you can see Minnie Mouse, alongside Daisy Duck, Donald Duck, and Goofy. Ready for a day at the beach, these characters visit each table in beachwear, ready for fun in the sun. Cape May is a casual dining experience, serving buffet foods in a seaside-like atmosphere. You can get all three meals of the day here but be aware it is a seafood-heavy buffet dining experience. Popular with young families, this ones requires a reservation. Simply head to the Beach Club Lobby, to check in. Check out the Cape May menu. 

Beaches and Cream Soda Shop | Beach Club

Located near the main pool at Disney’s Beach and Yacht Club, Beaches and Cream is one of those hidden gem restaurants that only the locals seem to know about.

We recommend reservations for the sit down restaurant area. And of course, you can grab milkshakes and to go foods at the food counter. Check out the Beaches and Cream Soda Shop menu.
