Disney Springs Evening Hangout Suggestions

[Aravan24]

My wife and I are coming down this coming down to WDW for a last minute trip to get one last use out of our annual passes this coming weekend, February 2nd through 6th. As we are staying offsite and won't have extra magic hours at Hollywood Studios we were looking for things to do on Friday night after the Star Wars Galactic Spectacular fireworks show.

The current plan is to head over to Disney Springs and have some drinks and hang out and relax. I'm looking for any suggestions about which places might be fun to try out for that purpose. It could be anything from watching some of the live entertainment to just sitting at an outdoor bar and people watching.

Thanks and I look forward to seeing what suggestions people might have!

Jock Lindsays! If you are in the mood for a burger, I would suggest D-Luxe. Or if you are interested in playing a game of bowling or billiards I would recommend Splitsville. I also love the Dockside Margaritas.

You can't go wrong with anything you choose at Disney Springs.

so many chocies:
Lounges/Bars:
Dockside Margarita
Ragland Road
Jock Lindsey's
Splitsville
Boathouse

Entertainment is everywhere after 7pm, you could stroll from one thing to the next. I particularly like the band playing inside Boathouse every Saturday night (pstt It's my son's band )

Homecoming has a bar and a nice outdoor area next to the Springs. You can order the full menu outside and at the bar. Morimoto has a downstairs and upstairs bar. The upstairs bar is only open aft 5pm and looks really cool. They also have a quick service outside that looks good. Bongos has a lot of nice outdoor seating. I don't know if it's the bar or not. They seem to take walk ups.

The Boathouse is a lovely area to sit outside and look out over Lake Beuna Vista or even outside Ghiradellis.

The new Coke building has a nice upstairs area that looks out over the Springs. Great view and drinks.

House of Blues will probably have some sort of music show that night (extra charge I'm sure) so that might be an option, and they have a pretty good bar. We tried Boat House one evening and the service was pretty lacking so we only stayed for 1 drink. Raglan Road isn't bad but the outdoors patio is a smoking section, or was when we were last there, and we asked to be moved because we were sitting next to a group that was smoking while we were trying to eat/drink and that annoys me. We did like Jock Lindsey's. Disney Springs will probably be busy on a Friday night.

Definitely agree with all the places listed above - we love all of them.

I know you specifically asked about DS but thought I would throw out another idea. We love JellyRolls on the Boardwalk. It is a dueling piano bar and they guys playing there are amazing. There is a $12 cover charge but if you are planning to stay for a while it is definitely worth it.

In the food truck area, there are rappers and a DJ that put on an amazing show! It's a very clean, family friendly show. They rap on the spot with audience participation and it's just an incredible performance. They are a must see for my family.
