Raglan Road-TV's to watch NCAA tourney?

[tmbacon]

We have reservations at Raglan Road this coming Friday. It's been a few years since I've been there. Are there many TV's located inside, so that we can potentially watch the Sweet 16? If not, does anyone have recommendations where TV's will be plentiful? We will not be in the parks this day, so need to choose a non-park restaurant. I know there's ESPN restaurant but I'm sure they will be a madhouse, and I understand that they don't take reservations anyways. Thanks!

I don't know whether Raglan has TVs or not, but I know Splitsville does. Josh recently did a review here: http://www.easywdw.com/uncategorized/splitsville-downtown-disney-review/

Thanks, great idea! Perhaps we'll try this out as well - looks like a huge place with lots of TV options!

I do not believe so. I would also suggest Splitsville or going to the boardwalk to ESPN.

As others have said, I do not think Raglan Road has any TVs. I kind of doubt they'd have any because their focus is on the Irish dancing (in the evenings).

As others have said, I would try EPSN as being the most likely to be showing the Sweet 16. Some of the lounges at the various resorts might also have televisions, but I don't know if they'd be tuned to the Sweet 16.

In addition to the ESPN Club on the Boardwalk, don't forget abouot the ESPN Sports Grill at the Wild World of Sports complex across the walkway from the entrance to the baseball stadium. Bigger and roomier than the one at the Boardwalk, and less crowded. The TV screens are huge.

Also, if you have a car, The Orlando Ale House is a great place to watch sports. It gets as crowded as a Disney venue, but the food is better and cheaper.

We tried to get into the ESPN Zone on the BW for the sweet 16 once. It was a complete madhouse.

Any chance the brewery at Boardwalk, or one of the other Epcot hotels, has televisions for this?

The Dolphin has a lobby bar with a TV that will show the games. Not too many seats, but a fair amount of standing room.
