Bars and restaurants on the Boardwalk

[Antonio]

I am going on a disneymoon with my fiance in October and am staying at the Poly. I planned on doing a Boardwalk restaurant one night after illuminations. What time do they close and how would I be able to get back to the Poly late night? I plan on staying for some drinks.

Disney transportation runs late but you could always take a cab. There are lots of them outside the main entrance of the BW. Go to www.allears.net to get a full menu of all the places on the Boardwalk. You can't go wrong. Happy Disneymoon and congratulations!

Jellyrolls closes at 2 AM. It has a cover charge (about $10 per person) so it's not suggested to go unless you plan to stay there awhile. They do not serve food (except popcorn), drinks only. I have no idea when Atlantic Dance closes or even if it is open every night. The resort bar (Bellevue Lounge in the Boardwalk) closes around 11 - 11:30. I do not believe Bellevue Lounge serves food. The bar in Flying Fish Cafe would likely close around 10. There is no bar at Kouzzina, and I don't know the hours at ESPN or Big River Grill.

I'm pretty sure most ADR's for the restaurants at the Boardwalk end at about 9:30 or so (which if you are heading over there after IllumiNations, you may not make in time). The restaurants at the Dolphin tend to run a little later. You can always take a bus to DTD and then over to the Poly to get you home. If you hang out until last call at JRs or ACDH they will have buses waiting to take you back to your resort. Last time my girlfriend and I left JRs at about 1. We were the only ones to get on a bus heading for DTD and the bus driver was able to take us directly to our bus stop at POR instead.

When we don't stay in the Epcot resort area, we always grab a cab. Well worth the $20 to skip the late night bus runs.

The only table service restaurant with a bar at the Boardwalk which stays open late is the ESPN Club because they close at 1:00 AM.

Jellyrolls is fun!
Also, another thought would be to go to Epcot during an EMH at night, and have some drinks in different countries. I like this website: http://partythroughtheparks.squarespace.com/the-boardwalk/
