Place to eat around Boardwalk?

[Boomerdog]

We're staying at the Dolphin and looking for a place to eat around the Boardwalk area. Are there any places to walk up? Any recommendations for places to reserve?

I would highly recommend Beaches and Cream at the Beach Club. It is a sit down and you will have to make a reservation. Great food and it's always a must do for us.

Trattoria al Forno on the BW and Ale and Compass at the Yacht Club are both good for sitdown meals. We would reserve either, but you may be able to walk up and get seated or do a quick booking using the My Disney Experience app to check availability and book.

There's an Ale and Compass Lounge I believe with reduced food offerings - no reservations needed. I don't think the Crew's Cup Lounge is open yet - we enjoyed eating there.

If you have park hoppers, I'd recommend eating in Epcot any night you can.

Dolphin Fountain is a great choice of you're looking for burgers, etc. We used to be B&C burger fans until we tried the Dolphin Fountain and like them better. Its also easy to get into without an ADR.

Other good restaurants in the area are Il Mulino (Swan) which has the best italian food on property, Blue Zoo (Dolphin) for good seafood, and Yachtsman Steakhouse. We've also enjoyed Ale & Compass in that area.

I think Trattoria al Forno is probably one of the best breakfasts on property - both for quality of food and value. They tend to have a lot of reservations these days.

And personally, I like Shula's as well though it's pricey. They do have a lounge.

Il Mulino at the Swan is great! You can also get an order to from them if you don't want to dine at the restaurant.

I don't think Yachtsman Steakhouse has reopened yet.

If you are looking for a walk-up, the Boardwalk Bakery is a great option for soup, sandwiches, and salads. For reservations, Beaches and Cream is fun, Trattoria Al Forno is great (we specifically love the BF), and Il Mulino is our favorite place in all of Disney.

We really enjoyed the breakfast sandwiches at the BW bakery. And it’s always a plus when you can get a side of bacon!!

A quick note on this - I hope they are selling slices again. When we went last October they would only sell whole pizzas. Use to love just getting a slice and hanging out on the pier.

Another vote for Il Mulino.
If you like Seafood, BlueZoo is also very good since Flying Fish has not reopened yet.

This is why we booked the Swan for our fall trip and are planning park hoppers!

Completely agree.

 

[TexanInTheMidwest]

Completely agree.

We went with friends on my last trip and one of the guys said - was each meal really only $13??? so it was good AND a good value.
