Anybody been here?

I just saw it online... Is it good? Any information would be helpful....

We ate there once and did not care for it.
sorry

We ate there last May and we thought the food and service was good.

 

[Deb & Bill]

We ate there a while back and had a good lunch (late about 2PM). However, when we went back for dinner one night, it was horrid. Terrible service (condescending staff, arguing with us over the beeper they gave us - it didn't go off, they said it did). Food was frozen inside, table was dirty and they reluctantly cleaned it so we could eat.

We won't go back.

Have had dinner there once but would probably not go back. The food was very average and the prices high for what you got.

OK, so I'm with the other posters: the food there is mediocre at best.

But the beer is great!

Go there for the beer and outside seating. Eat someplace else.

The chicken sandwich I had for lunch in October was fine. Beer is good. Location on the BW is terrific.

The menu is typical pub food, but they have their own micro-brewery. For pub food, go to ESPN. Better food and better atmosphere.

We ate there last trip in May, medeocre for the price. Micro-brews were all on the bitter side.

It was just OK.

For all Disney has to offer and the great BW location of this place you would expect it to be a whole lot better.

Somewhat expensive for being just OK.

I love sitting outside and munching on a burger there... strong cocktails... havent tried the beer.

I look forward to eating there again.

You can get a beer sampler with about 6 different types of beer. They give you information about each type. It's a lot of fun.

We ate outside and enjoyed our meal. the food was nothing special, but sitting outside on the Boardwalk was.

We love it and eat there on every one of our three trips each year.

Up until a few weeks ago we had only eaten outside, and/or had a beer outside. We opted for dinner there one night recently, and I promised myself before we left I'd never do that again!

My recommendation is that if you're in the mood for a decent burger and a brew, sit outside and you'll enjoy it.

I know this place gets a lot of negative feedback (well deserved, apparently), but we really like it. The 1st time we went we had a larger party of about 12 and had crummy service, mostly the waiter who was a whiner about everything in his life. We liked the atmosphere, beer, and casual food style and decided to try it again. Well, we go there every time we're at WDW, even if we're staying elsewhere. Like everyplace else, the prices do feel to be a bit on the high side for what you get.

We've been there three times, each time taking guests and never had a problem -- never any wait either. They also got all of the orders right the first time!

At ESPN club the portions are MUCH, MUCH LARGER and you get a DVC discount at lunch if I remember correctly.

Either way, it's better than park counter service

I'm not too crazy about the food, but the service was excellent when we've been. DH had the burger, which was decent. I had the meatloaf which I didn't care for.

 

[POOH&PIGLET]

Its great for a beer and a sandwich/burger, etc. We alwats stop by if we are staying at BVW.

 

[kimpossible]

We've eaten there twice (no ressies and no wait for the inside seating). Both times I got a salad ( one time the mahi mahi) and really enjoyed it. We have always had good service and have enjoyed our meal. I also did not find it too expensive when keeping in mind that EVERYTHING in Disney is way overpriced.

I would like to check out the ESPN club next time, I just haven't felt like waiting. Apparently, it must be pretty good.

 

[crzy4dals]

Thanks for the replies..

Do not know if we will go there this trip... Maybe just a beer!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

Went there in May with DH. Pub style food but the hamburger was good. Annmarie
