Are Pool Bars/Hotel Bars Still Open?

[soniam]

I was curious if the pool bars and/or hotel bars are still open with the new Florida bar rules. If anyone is there now and can confirm, that would be great. Specifically curious about BWV. Need to know what supplies to bring. Thanks

I saw on twitter that Leaping Horse Libations at Boardwalk was open today! That said, things are changing somewhat rapidly. Might be good to come equipped with a "plan B."

Here's some places at Disney Springs that are still open for serving.

If there’s enough people to make a profit, there’s no reason pool bars can’t serve drinks to go. Just can’t have seating right at the bar open.

Maybe. Dockside Margaritas at Disney Springs closed, and they are completely out doors. I think there's a rule about what percentage the sale of alcohol is for total sales. In other words, they need to sell a decent amount of food too. So, I don't know how that applies to the pool bars.

Right, 50% or more revenue from alcohol means no on-premise consumption. They don’t have to close though. Some have because they wouldn’t get enough business to turn a profit with carry out only. How many people at pool bars sit there to drink vs those who carry it away though? But if hotel occupancy is very low then there may not be enough demand to have pool bars open for carry out.
