Best Bartenders in WDW

[barbeml]

I have to nominate the bartenders at the Tambu Lounge at the Poly. The drinks are always soooooo good and soooooo strong. (I hate how some places keep making them weaker and weaker with each round--never a problem at the Tambu!) When we stayed there, we came back from the parks for a break every afternoon around 3PM and had drinks at the Tambu. Every drink was outstanding. We make it a point to hit the Tambu on every trip.

Also, there is a gal (never caught her name) at the Banana Cabana at CBR who makes fantastic drinks, again nice and strong. Two years in a row she made us the best drinks.

Any others deserve a mention?

The bartenders at The Gurgling Suitcase at Old Key West. Very good drinks and a great group of people!

I was going to say the Tambu Lounge too. On my last trip I went to the bar to have 1 drink while I waited to meet a friend. The bartender made such good drinks I ended up staying for 3, LOL! I wish I had gotten his name.

Also, Ive found anytime I get a mixed drink at ESPN its usally very good. I find a lot of mixed drinks in WDW are fairly weak, but not at ESPN.

I didn't know there was a bar outside Tusker House! How did I miss that?

Excellent thread! I don't have anyone to nominate, but I'm taking notes for future trips!

The crew at the Crew's Cup at YC - excellent.

Jiko's bar (NOT victoria falls) - wonderful.

The Outer Rim - great drinks, nice folks (sit at the bar! )

I'm dying to try the Gurgling Suitcase, I've bet I've gone there at least 6 times, always to find it full to over-flowing. What time do you have to get there (after dark) to get a seat???

I forgot the bartender at the Tune-In Lounge. DH ordered a beer and I ordered a glass of Merlot, and he asked if we wanted to walk around with it (hint hint), and I said sure and he gave me a plastic cup with the equivalent of about three glasses!!

It's called the Dawa Bar. If you face the entrance to the Tusker House, it is behind the seating area on the left. Love that place!

I think his name was Charlie at Narcoossee's. He was super friendly, and a real cutie. I have a "thing" for bartenders, I love to watch them make drinks.
