Abracadabar age restriction?

[Elandon]

my 8 year old son loves magic (and Disney) but I don't want to mention Abracadabar unless he can visit!

Curious too, but for opposite reasons.
So far I have seen no reference to food other than popcorn with a drink, so it's a straight up bar.

Sounds like a straight up bar. There are only two non-alcoholic options and no food mentioned on the website. I don't see a strict age restriction listed on the official website but although it is magic themed I'm not sure if your young son would get much out of it. From my understanding there are not magicians walking around or anything like that and since it is a bar it could be rowdier at different parts of the day.

If you do go and he is allowed I would take him around 4 or 5 if you don't want to be around patrons who may have already had quiet a bit to drink.

I don't recall any bar operated by Disney that excludes anyone of any age (Jellyrolls is 21 and up but it is not operated by Disney), except for Trader Sams after 8 PM. If Abracadabar also had that restriction we would have heard about it.

There are nonalcoholic beverages available too, but it's still a bar. They don't serve any food other than popcorn. Was thinking maybe after Flying Fish reopened, but FF has its own bar area.

What are you hoping for to show him? As PP have said it is a bar, pure & simple. I think he will be allowed in, but what's there for him to enjoy?

I think he would love the theming, the bathroom stuff, and there is one trick the waiters do (or so I've heard). He loves fancy mocktails (doesn't get many sweet drinks at home) so he will definitely like the themed non-alcoholic beverages. We would go between 4-5 and check it out. We are staying beach club so it's pretty low investment and we could combine the trip with ice cream from Ample hills. If he's not into it, we don't need to go but it's better to know ahead of time what's a possibility and what's not. Its so much more magical to avoid disappointments!

Since you will be so close to it and can stroll over, do just that and ask someone at the bar if your son would be allowed in. If he can't no big deal and you move on to ice cream and something else. And, as always, there is no national law on drinking age, it's a state law and state laws, even in Florida, can vary from county to county. The people who would know are the ones at that particular establishment.

He can go. I've seen photos from inside where someone had brought in a stroller & there are changing tables in the bathrooms. 21+ venues don't allow strollers & don't have changing tables.

I don't think there is any problem with it, especially during daylight hours. I think the 8pm cutoff at trader sam's is probably a good cutoff in general at disney for that sort of thing TBH. My son loves doing "grownup" things too and would love to sit and have a drink with mom (non alcoholic for him of course, lol). Sit, have a beverage, enjoy a little magic and then have an ice cream sounds good to me. No one should be doing anything inappropriate for a kid to be around at 4pm in a disney bar

Challenge accepted. Jk.

We will be going, and bringing kids, in a few months. I want the Pepper's Ghost. And the popcorn. YUM!

We'll be there with DS8 at the end of the month! I've heard nothing about an age restriction. Guess we'll find out when we get there!
