Late night dining at the BW

[SleepyatDVC]

What time do all the restaurants close at the BW?
Our flight arrives at MCO at 9:35pm on a Saturday night in April. We will be using DME (with an overnight bag) and checking into the BWV.

I'm thinking that by the time we finish checking in, it might be after 11pm. I think the latest reservations can be made for is probably 10:45pm? Cutting it too close for a sit down, I think.

Since we will be at the airport at around 4ish for our 6:40pm flight, we will try to eat something then. But we may be hungry by the time we get to the resort.

Where can we grab a bite to eat? I will be traveling alone with a 7 and 9 year old. I think that ESPN and the Buffeteria at the Dolphin will be open really late? How late? Not sure how far the Buffeteria is and don't want to be wandering around so late with 2 sleepy kiddies.

So, I'm thinking if we are starving, we will try to get into ESPN. Do they do take out? Or if we just need a quick bite, to stop by the BW Bakery and the Screen Door to stock up on snacks. What time do they close anyways?

Anyone think of any other options, (besides room service) that I might have forgotten about? Thanks!!!

Picabu (the buffeteria in the Dolphin) is open 24 hours. Enjoy!

I was going to suggest ESPN Club. The slider burgers are our favorites and I'm sure they're open past 11 on a Saturday night. Otherwise, the Big River Brewery (also on the Boardwalk) might be open.
Lastly, Beaches 'n Cream across the river at the Beach Club might be open.

Hope you guys have a great time!

Here is a link to the ESPN menu and hours. It is open late on Saturday nights. Probably your best bet on the BW without going to the Dolphin.

If you get delayed, the Dolphin may be your best option. Once you are in your room, room service may also still be available.

Good luck!

With children that young, I'd suggest feeding them on the plane or while you wait and then tucking them into bed as soon as you get to your villa. Pack some snacks for the plane as well.

Happy planning!

Thanks for all the suggestions!!

I did find that the Pizza window at Spoodles is open until midnight.

Thinking about it some more. We will probably eat at the airport before getting on the plane. The kids will be more tired than hungry after 11pm.

Too bad about the Bakery and Screen Door closing at 11pm. Maybe if we manage to get to the BW before 11pm, we will head straight to the Screen Door to pick up something for breakfast before checking in! Might have to plan on throwing some extra snacks into the luggage or carry on also.
