38 Best Bars in Lake Buena Vista

“Awesome place ! Gipsy was great too“

“Have you ever been to a restaurant where there’s a cohesive staff where there’s four team members that go above and beyond that actually take care of you and make sure that your food is good and that service is good? Let me tell you this restaurant there are four staff members back behind the bar who went above and beyond made sure we were taken care of made sure that our food was good. Made sure our drink stayed full and all around. They were actually great to be around. Dairis, Joe, Kaiya, Loraine were the four staff members were behind the bar and I would specifically come back for each and every single one of them. They were that good!!! So do yourself a favor go in just to see any of those four or all four together to see how well they work together because honestly again I would just go back for them alone. And yes, my tomahawk steak was good along with the asparagus and the potatoes. And the four of them made sure of that!!!“

“A Flavorful Evening with Stellar Service We stopped in for apps and drinks this evening and had a fantastic experience. Our server, Nayeli, was outstanding—attentive, knowledgeable, and quick with spot-on recommendations. The clothesline bacon was a definite highlight. A savory-sweet indulgence, but what really surprised me was the rosemary garnish. Just a touch of it with each bite completely opened up the flavor—adding a subtle, aromatic layer that elevated the whole dish. It's an unexpected twist that truly works. Also, shoutout to the bar: the scotch Old Fashioned was one of the best I’ve had—easily in my top five. Balanced, smooth, and clearly made with intention. Highly recommend for anyone who appreciates bold flavors, thoughtful cocktails, and sharp, attentive service. We’ll absolutely be back.“

“Grilled fish of the day with green curry competes with red snapper wrapped in potatoes from Flying Fish for best fish dish in Disney. I'll let the plate speak for itself. Awesome view eating outside. Great service. Definitely worth a visit.“

“Always make you feel special and love the happy hour“

“Kidani Village is our favorite resort! It was so peaceful to come back to after a long day. The views are incredible and the staff is spectacular.“

“A lovely quiet resort, immaculately presented and close to Disney Springs. We had a studio which was great for our family, really spacious. Lots of storage and useful kitchenette. Daily housekeeping was great, plentiful supply of towels, coffee, soaps etc. Wider resort was lovely to walk around. We were in Paddock which is a good distance between the main springs area and Disney springs. The pool area in paddock has a slide and kids splash park with a great bar, which has a drinks station for resort mugs open till 10. Buses were not full as we were on stop 3, not far to walk to our room in block 5. Used the artists palette for a few supplies and one breakfast. Nice but there were better quick serve food selections in non DVC resorts. All staff were great, quick to help and made our stay a breeze. Wouldn’t hesitate to return or recommend, but more resorts to try out yet.“

“Can’t rate the food because i never ordered it.
This was my favorite location in epcot! the drinks were fantastic and the cast members were fab!

Walking in feels like a space shuttle in a way and they hand you cold towels to whip your hands down and you sit in their waiting area and it was comfy couches but you sink in for sure! didn’t wait long for our a table at all.

The drink menu was great and also they will tweak it if you ask! The vibe was so calm and just relaxing. If you want a break away from families and the heat this is the location. I rave about this place to everyone! the drinks were strong and great!
We were sat next to a local couple and they were such a great experience with experiencing this location. Gave us great recs with their waiter who they knew. Truly a great time! i will be coming back here each trip to epcot and this will be my starting point to drink before going around the world!“

“Went here with my grandparents and were greeted by Marcia and Shelly who were lovely and welcoming. We went every day and were always greeted with the same smile and service. Sadly the manager who worked there I didn’t catch his name he was also lovely and I went so often they gave me a free drink which was so kind. They shared stories and jokes which kept us entertained. Would recommend.“

“This is a must! Not sure why our event was held in the Toledo Restaurant instead of Three Bridges. Weather? Needed more tables? Either way, we had a great time.

We went up to the 16th floor and checked in. They have a specific table for you which is already decked out with your glasses of sangria and chips with salsa and guacamole. When ready, your hosts (Robert and Ashley were awesome) will begin with some facts and go into the history of sangria. And it wasn't boring.

Oh, and you get a great view of the Disney property from the bathrooms. Lol.“

“This little drink shack packs a powerful punch - literally - with everything from daiquiris to beers and a full bar. Sometimes the line can be a little long and if so, there are other places to buy booze on the right and the left - you can even get drinks at the produce market next door. Convenience comes to mind here. ?“

“You can get the bread pudding they serve at Sebastian's if you ask! The best bread pudding I've ever had, and I'm not even a huge fan of tropical flavors. Had the banana cabana drink, which was very good. The live band really impressed me as well. And a view of the fireworks if you time it right! Didn't have any actual food, but might be worth a try.“

“Muddy Rivers Pool Bar at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort is exactly what a Disney pool day should feel like. Relaxed, fun, and just enough energy without being chaotic. It’s located right by the main pool, so you can keep an eye on the kids while still enjoying an actual adult beverage, which is a rare Disney win.

Ken behind the bar is the real deal. Friendly, quick, and knows his cocktails. He made some of the best specialty drinks we’ve had on Disney property. Full bar, great frozen options, strong pours, and the presentation was on point. If you’re staying at Port Orleans Riverside or French Quarter, this spot is a must between park days.

The atmosphere is perfect for families. Kids are splashing around, music playing, palm trees swaying, and you’re sitting there with a legit craft cocktail instead of a watered down theme park drink. It feels like a little vacation inside your vacation.

If you’re looking for the best pool bar at Disney’s Port Orleans, Muddy Rivers delivers. Great drinks, great service, and a laid back vibe that makes you want to hang out longer than you planned. Ask for Ken. You’ll be glad you did.“

“Nice, chill addition to Fort Wilderness“

“This is such a great spot. Perfect little walk up bar right by Everest. We’ve never waited in line but we’ve always ended up seeing a line after we’ve ordered so maybe that’s just luck of the draw. The bartenders are really great and can make accommodations upon request. For example, there was a drink I was really interested in but it had whiskey and I’m just not a fan. She recommended a replacement and adjusted the recipe accordingly. It was amazing and I ended up going back for a second. The only reason I can’t give all 5 stars and I truly believe Disney waters down its booze (and I get why, but it offends me lol)“

“A fabulous and magical lounge to enjoy delicious cocktails, light bites and views of Magic Kingdom! I have taken my family and friends here and every experience has been a delight! Definitely a must do as a DVC member! I've done a walk in with friends and most recently, reserved a table for Wicked Wind Down with my Husband, son and daughter in law and it was fantastic! The food was great, drinks phenomenal and the private, roped off viewing of the fireworks was worth the pricetag!“

“Absolutely love the bar service here. The staff are amazing. We had a cucumber mint mojito and it was the best (could use a bit more booze but I feel that way about all Disney drinks for the most part). The island chicken Caesar salad is so good.“

“Great location right on the water with plenty of seating.
The margaritas were nice and cold and refreshing on a warm day.
The server was quick and didn’t talk apart from asking us what we wanted, but that was understandable due to a line.
Stop by and enjoy a relaxing drink.“

“just sitting overlooking the water“

“Such a cute little spot! The Barcelona Lounge is tucked away just below the reception area at the Walt Disney Resort—you can take the stairs or the lift to get there. The glass walls give you a really nice view of the water, which makes it a lovely place to just sit and relax. I stopped by for coffee and a small bite, and it hit the spot. Just keep in mind they have specific serving times, so you might not always get food service, but it's still a great place to hang out or get some work done while you're waiting for a ride or between meetings. The staff was super friendly too!“

“First time in Disney for 15 years, and for a "budget" is fantastic ! Well themed sky liner resort. Beds are so comfy, just what you need after a long day in the parks. The food court is great, but It can get a little repeative if you're there for 14 days. 3 awesome pools, plenty of benches to sit by hour glass lake and watch the world go by and relax. 5-10 minute walk to the skyliner station. I'm An uber from Orlando Airport was $55 and took about 40 mins in the late afternoon/ evening. September 2022“

“Brooke was a wonderful server. The whiskey sour was delicious and my mother loved the black cherry mule. The area is open so birds sometimes come in and attempt to steal food, but you're fine if you don't hold out chips or anything. The ribeye sandwich was fantastic and their house made chips were nice and crispy“

“Love this place, the ambiance is great, great jazz music and the beignets were delicious!“

“Justin our waiter was amazing! He answered all our questions and was great to just talk with him… He is VERY knowledgeable and all around amazing waiter… He went above and beyond for us we will always request him…“

“Fabulous bar service with an equally fabulous outdoor seating area for a drink“

“Just had a much needed break from the crowds, great view“

“Such an Amazon place to relax and unwind and friendly staff too!!“

“Nice pool for kids and adults. Nice bar for the adults. Great day for in between park visits. Big slide for the kids, hot tub and toddlers splash area. They have it all here.“

“Great tasting salad. However was disappointed that they no longer carry Tusker beer. Our server said it was taken out a while ago, before he worked there. So then pls update the menu on your website.“

“This was a nice and quiet lounge to hang out at. The staff members were awesome and the views are as well. The food was ok and the drinks were great. I liked that you have options to make your own old fashioned. Was also nice that you can see the fireworks from Epcot while being up there as well. Will definitely be back.“

“Great food, great service, great atmosphere. Everything was very good and the setting is magnificent. Only negative is that they do not take reservations, so you might have a wait after you arrive. We got there at 6p and were seated at the last available table. They are only open for dinner, opening 4:30p.“

“Once again I'm impressed with this Four Seasons property. Every restaurant and experience has been exceptional. The lunch at PB&G was exceptional. We had exemplary service in a beautiful outdoor setting! The food was delicious and libations creative. This property continues to impress me.“

“The service can take a while depending when you go, but the food is delicious. The pineapple bread is a must-have, and the desserts are excellent!“

“Marcus and Karrin were exceptionally attentive to all needs and recommendations were on point. Karrin is a fabulous mixologist. Cocktails were on point. Go enjoy a meal here.“

“Sommerfest was such a fun stop during EPCOT’s Drink Around the World challenge! I loved the German theme, from the decor and architecture to the overall atmosphere. The attention to detail really made the area feel immersive and added to the experience. I grabbed a beverage and enjoyed taking in the great vibes while exploring the Germany Pavilion. A perfect spot to slow down, relax, and appreciate the atmosphere while making your way around World Showcase.“

“Great fun for all the ages of our group from 7 to 70.“

“They do a great job! Never disappointed!“
