Restaurants (non-park) w/ Nice Bars

[Nie0214]

Hi all! I'm going on a solo trip at the start of February, and I'm looking for restuarants outside of the parks that have a nice bar to sit at and enjoy a meal. I don't really want to sit at a table alone, so eating at the bar is fine with me.

I'm looking for suggestions of good bars to sit at. If there's a nice view, etc., good food.

TIA

Flying Fish is very good and they have a counter/bar seating area where you can watch the chefs.

Jiko and Ca Grill also have them.

If you like sushi, Kimonos at the Dolphin has a nice bar. Maybe it's the Swan. I can't remember which is which!!!

I am not sure if you can order off their menu from the bar, but The Wave at the Contemporary has a nice one.

Besides that the bar at the Rainforest Cafe in Downtown Disney Marketplace is also nice and you can order from there off the full menu.

I second RFC. I'll also add the Turf Club at Saratoga Springs. I am not sure if you can order food from the bar, but its a low key, very nice atmosphere. I would not feel funny at all eating there alone. And its a short boatride or walk from DTD.

I'll also add the Gurgling Suitcase at OKW. Its an outdoor bar, but there are picnic tables right there with a view of the marina and you can easily get a burger from Goods to Go, the CS place that is also right there. For something casual, its very fun and also a boatride away from DTD.

You can eat at the bar at 50's primetime and watch the fun 50's sitcoms on TV

Wow thanks, never would have thought of OKW.

territory Lounge at WL is wonderful.

I thought the bar at Narcosee's would be a nice place to have a drink and I'm pretty sure you can order dinner from there also. The restaurant is round and has two "layers" with the bar in the center. It wouldn't be crowded by any means but I bet you could get a great view of MK.

Hands down Raglan Road at Downtown Disney. Plenty of people eating and drinking at the bar , a band , an Irish dancer , lots of people watching , and no park admission .
