Can’t see the “show” unless you are seated on the bar side.

I think the intent was to have the other dining areas more secluded and intimate but you're right in that the "show" doesn't work for these patrons. A solution of sorts would be to give them their own show, a massive aquarium or interactive portholes that still provides something "showy" but less participatory. Maybe a Kraken encounter on the hour.

I wouldn't say "case closed." Case dismissed is more accurate!

As for the show, it seems the views from various seating configurations (booths, bars, tables) encourage repeatability.

There are some elements in other parts - the ships in a bottle, the moving tentacle, etc - but not the full show with the parrot

Was just watching a video review of the place and they were moving all around taking in the details so I am sure you can go over neared the bar where you can see the show when it starts, but definitely not ideal ....

... Though does promote repeat visits if you didn't see everything the first time

My favourite show happens above the mantlepiece in the other main space. Did you happen to catch it?

They should have built an actual good restaurant at a park with horrible food options instead of a bar with overpriced tortilla chips...

The theming is great, but they could have easily expanded to the west a bit towards the train tracks to make a medium sized restaurant with the same theming .

What’s a good restaurant with horrible food options?

if demand keeps up....maybe they will (as they have elsewhere)

I think the poster was saying MK has horrible food options so Disney should've added a good restaurant rather than a bar.

Aye, the Captains Quarters. We were fortunate and sat in the back 4 top so we could see the parrots walk and the ship bottles on the mantlepiece.

They literally do have a restaurant with similar - though obviously not to the same degree of detail - theming with Tortuga Tavern. It would be nice if they operated that (and the Tomorrowland Terrace) regularly.

And Skipper's Canteen is a rather good option and has a lot of nods to the SEA and Jungle Cruise ... this area of the park is honestly one of the better ones as far as food goes lol

No matter how much they try, S.E.A. has gained less traction in US parks than Duffy.

which is a bummer - really wish that rumored (or more?) show for D+ had happened ... feels like something they could build and create various elements for that would make $ for them.

I did not catch it. Next time.

Also love the effect in the map room when the black lights come on revealing a bunch of secrets on the walls and maps
