Boardwalks Seashore Sweets to close

[NiarrNDisney]

I just read that the Boardwalks Seashore Sweets will be closing soon to make more room for the Flying Fish dining room and its rumored it will also be turned into a bar that both Flying Fish and Trattoria al Forno will share since guests have to walk through the store to get to the restrooms.

I wonder if this will spark a small makeover for the Boardwalk since I had heard last year how the small arcade near the scary clown pool and the arcade located in the store next to ESPN Club would be merging to make one large arcade.

Anyone have any more information?

I saw that too. I think it's a bummer...it's really part of the charm that is the Boardwalk!

Wait, is this the ice cream parlor and candy store right by the boat dock at the boardwalk? If so I love that place. I at least once a trip go and get a scoop and sit on the boardwalk relaxing to the sites and sounds.

I hope this isn't true.

Yup, it's between Boardwalk Bakery and the boat dock. Ice cream, candy, and sweet treats all around!

Sadly true. I received a letter from the BoardWalk today confirming it (one of those letters about construction affecting our upcoming stay).

I'll miss it then.

Yes Seashore Sweets is the Candy and Ice cream parlor between the two table service restaurants themed with Beauty Pageants.

Though I am thinking they could move the candy to the Screen Door General Store and possible build another kiosk along the boardwalk where you can get the dipped cones and other frozen treats. It actually might look nice over by the midway games between Big River and JellyRolls.

Oh no :/ When is this starting?

February 2, same time as Flying Fish.

I'll second this. I'm not against it if they open up another parlor somewhere else on the boardwalk, though, because Flying Fish is one of my favorite restaurants on property. And Beaches and Cream certainly does not need more guests.

Well there is always The Fountain and Sugar at the Dolphin

I used to love going here as a cast member. Because the location was considered "merchandise" but still sold ice cream, their ice cream had a much more substantial cast discount than any other ice cream on property.

I'll miss it if they go.

I wouldn't be surprised if Seashore Sweets moves into the ESPN arcade space

 

[StarWarsGirl]

They've already closed the Yard Arcade. It was closed during the entirety of my trip. I thought it was odd. Now we know.

 

[Tony the Tigger]

Good. It was weird eating a nice dinner at the flying fish and having to walk through a candy store to get to the bathroom.

I'm sure the candy store is easily moved.

 

[baymenxpac]

bummer. i love(d) that place.

Yes this seems to be the plan, although not yet confirmed.

 

[TomHendricks]

I hope it does move to the ESPN arcade spot, we loved going to here. We would often eat at Flying Fish, then hit here after for dessert. Our just stop in anytime we were on the Boardwalk.

Glad to hear. It would be odd for them to permanently close a candy/ice cream location like this on the Boardwalk, of all places.
