Disney’s Boardwalk Resort’s waterfront offerings are a lovely alternative to the Theme Parks and Disney Springs Nightlife. In recent weeks, I have noticed the constant additions to outdoor seating options. This is a welcome change as I find it hard sometimes to sit indoors depending on crowd levels.
Boardwalk to me is one of the best resorts on Disney Property. It is highly accessible to both Epcot and Hollywood Studios. There’s easy access to the rest of Disney Property using a wide variety of transportation. It sits in a centralized location while still providing a relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere only the turn of the century vibes can provide.
Although there are still some dining options unavailable there’s a plethora of choices for dining. With additional seating, this area is both convenient and relaxing. Whether out for an evening stroll, on route to the parks for a day or just taking a moment to enjoy the beautiful Florida weather the days of “searching” for a table on the Boardwalk for your family has mostly subsided! Thanks to these additional outdoor seating options!
Our first stop is in the direction of Epcot, only roughly a 5 minute walk across the bridge.
The Flying Fish, is currently closed and does not have any seating outside by their front doors.
Abracadabar has a covered area outdoors with 4-5 extra tables outside. I am happy to see this as the limited seating inside can be a bit overwhelming in the current times we live in. And I love the fact it has full coverage because we all know Florida weather is very unpredictable!
Walking just next door, Trattoria al Forno along with the Pizza window have extra seating outdoors. This spaced accompanied by some seating across the way right along the water! Both these spaces are operational and delicious!
continuing to the Boardwalk Bakery, my favorite quick breakfast option along Crescent Lake. Again, plenty of seating both sides of the Boardwalk.
ESPN Club, though no opening in sight has extra seating for your convenience as well.
The other side of the Boardwalk is notably quieter as Big River Grille, Jelly Rolls and Atlantic Dance are still not in operation. There are benches along that side of the Boardwalk, a great option if you want to be a bit further from the foot traffic to and from Epcot.
Looking for a little nook INSIDE?
A nice little spot is the Belle Vue Lounge. This little gem is upstairs adjacent to the lobby of the Boardwalk, the seating area is still accessible while the bar is not operating.
I have always loved The Boardwalk Resort and the charm it possesses. So I suggest this location as a must do for a relaxing evening out with your family.
