Downtown Disney Restaurants

Hello, my name's Geoff and I've recently been to Disneyworld in Florida!  It was an amazing trip and I spent a lot of my time in Downtown Disney.  The place to go for the evening!


I just want to share with you the Downtown Disney Restaurants I highly recommend to make the evenings the best they can be.  I tried a lot of them while I was there, I hope you can try some too.


 

If you go to Disneyworld, Florida, the older tourist will want to head on down to Downtown Disney. But what is it? It’s the nightlife of Disney! It’s home to pubs, clubs and lots of fine dining to be had. There are also a variety of shops including exclusive merchandise you cant get in the main parks.

ChatI will be discussing the restaurants however in this article. I’m speaking from experience because I spent 2 weeks at Disneyworld and went to Downtown Disney nearly every night while being there. I’m sure I should’ve ventured out more, but it’s such a nice place to be I didn’t feel the need to leave!

For fine dining there are a couple of options for you to choose from. People who are fans of fresh fish, there really is only one choice! Fulton’s Crab House is definitely the place to go. It really is a lovely place to be in, it’s a replica riverboat which is docked in the water. You can spend up to and around $60 per person if you’re looking to splash a bit of extra cash out. On top of that, I would choose a nice bottle of wine from their 2000 bottle wine cellar. Definitely one of my favorite places to go for a bit more of a special occasion.

I’m going to now talk about what is my favourite all-around restaurant, it’s prices are fair and reasonable, plus the service is very good. The food is American, so people overseas from the U.K will not be far from home, except for maybe having larger portions! Funny story behind this actually, I was there with a mate and we were both having the same dish. So when the waitress came around to take out order I said “Two pasta carbonara’s please” so she turned around and then asked what my mate wanted. I thought it was quite funny as it must be normal for someone to order 2 dishes for themselves!

For a more relaxed evening of dining you could try one of the pubs, my choice would be the “Raglan Road Irish Pub and Restaurant”. They serve traditional pub food that you find in England such as Bangers and Mash, Fish and Chips plus much more! In this pub there is some different entertainment as many people like to dance the night away to some Irish music. This place really does have a great feel to it, I only spent one evening here, but if I had more time and went back I would definitely give it another visit.

It’s worth pointing out that in all Downtown Disney Restaurants you need to be 21 years of age to drink alcoholic beverages. Also do make sure to take some form of I.D with you as anyone who looks under the age of 30 will require it. It’s amazing though you don’t get any problems from youngsters drinking like you would in other parts of the world. The strictness of the rules really does pay off.

I hope you’ve found my tips helpful and I really hope you go to some Downtown Disney Restaurants while you’re there. Let me know what you think of them!
