Question on Boardwalk dining - my DS and DDIL will be arriving later on Sunday evening April 2, hopefully around 8:00 (the rest of us will be arriving on Saturday the 1st). We'll wait to eat until they arrive and since it'll likely be too late to run over to Epcot I'm wondering what options might be available on the Boardwalk? We've eaten at ESPN a couple times before and would like to try something different if possible.

Thanks, I'm glad to hear you liked Trattoria as I would like to try it since we're staying at BWI this trip! I hesitate to make an ADR for the night they arrive though since, as we all know, arrival times can be highly unpredictable. I'm thinking we'll plan on more of an informal non-ADR dinner that night.You will probably need ADRs, but Trattoria al Forno has really good Italian food. We've liked it a lot every time we've eaten there (four times I think). Enjoy!
Is that the one with the micro-brewery? Regardless, that might work for us!Last November, we couldn't get into ESPN for dinner due to college football crowds and walked up to Big River Grille. We were seated right away, service was great and food was good (we were pleasantly surprised!).

Thank you, this looks pretty good!Yes, we sat outside though since it was warm enough that evening. Great for people watching and beautiful view of the lake. We had sandwiches/burgers (same as we would have ordered from ESPN).

I think it's settled then ... Big River Grille on the night my DS and DDIL arrive and an ADR for Trattoria for another night. Thanks for all the feedback everyone! So looking forward to our stay at BWI!!
We came home yesterday. The pool was open again on saturday. The only other construction we saw was some painting by big river grill and the boat docks. Nothing major.Anyone there right now who can confirm that Luna pool reopened Friday on schedule, even if the slide didn't?
I'm worried about the construction/refurbishments and would love some reassurance that it's not that bad. Arriving in three weeks. Thanks!
Hello, everyone. I'm just re-joining BWI thread. We currently have a moderate reservation booked for Halloween time frame, but if AP discounts come through, we may be able to switch to BWI.
In the Fall of 2016, my hubby and I celebrated our 41th wedding anniversary there, and then I was able to comeback for a quick Christmas-time trip with my best Disney travel buddy, (mainly to see Osborn Lights one last time...snif snif...). We're hoping we can swing it again, but it all depends on Special Offers! If Disney follows their historical pattern, AP discounts SHOULD be announced around April, so we're just waiting, not-so-patiently.
Now, I need to go back and catch up on any new stuff at the BWI since our last visit! Just wanted to drop by and say HI!!
