Trader's Sam's Grog Grotto 21 and over after 8pm

[WDW 72]

This is Great and should be policy across all Walt Disney World bars.

Seems like it should be. Then again, if you ain't giving kids drinks...what's the issue?

But seriously...nothing wrong with a little adult time.

 

[JenniferS]

I think in this case, it has more to do with anticipated high demand and limited available seating.

It doesn't make much sense for 9 & 10 year old soda-sipping Jimmy and Sally to be occupying two seats that would be better served by $52 Nautilus-drinking patrons.

 

[JasonDeyoung]

But yet no age restriction on the patio which I don't really understand. Should be 21+ all together IMHO

This thread will get out of hands within 18 hours.

However, I agree that children should not be taking up seats of other patrons inside alcoholic establishments or bars. And that should go property-wide.

In short, I dont drink in their day-care center. Dont bring your kids to mine.

Wasn't this rule pretty strict during the PI Years?.....You know when it "had" Clubs

 

[MarkTwain]

Great policy, and would be great to see it applied resort-wide. DCL has its adults-only areas (successfully); makes sense for WDW to have some too.

Ah, WDW did once.

A mythical place...Pleasure Island.

Great work Disney!

PhotoDave219 every one...
Pretty much sums it up.

And yea, this thread will be bonkers by 930am.

Well PI was 18+ if I remember back when they had turnstiles and ID checks.

We were first in line Sunday for the soft opening. 4 adults, and infant and toddler. We sat right next to the entrance to the back-of-the-house and things went well. My friends laughed and said that the kids as well as the adults would be asleep by 8pm.

In addition, it was a wonderful experience, and as locals, we intend to split our time between the Mai Kai and TS proportionately.

Whilst I find the concept of the drinking age being 21 in the States strange (even though I'm old enough), this is completely justified.

I love that line. It gave me a good laugh!

 

[The Tuna]

I don't see anything wrong with the policy at all. probably tougher to implement in the parks, but at a bar only establishment this makes perfect sense.

 

[Sage of Time]

Preach.

 

[networkpro]

Theres Lilos playhouse for the kiddies...

 

[Hockey89]

Of course it should be 21.... It is a no-brainer....

So is this an immediate policy change or something they roll out later this year? I'm hoping it will be in place by the summer, when we visit the area on family business. So far this is the only place (fun) we plan to visit. We are really looking forward to get away one night to relax and have a few here.

Baby's/kids in a bar?

I see it a lot here in Wisconsin - even late at night. This is usually my reaction:

Not a policy change, as Trader Sams is brand new. So the policy is in place from opening day.

Actually PRIOR to opening day
