I'm a Brit and I count them as a park. We don't really have water parks as such over here, unless you count a regular theme park on a rainy day, so I for one REALLY look forward to the water parks. Equally as much as the other four parks...
For some reason I can't link to it. It's a WDW News website. Maybe there's some rivalry that's going on...
Either way, I've not been to that patio so not sure of the layout..
Okay, having just spoken to Guest Services, it's only being run temporarily, I guess as a trial, up until the end of March 2017.
Presumably if it does well, they'll extend it.
So from a personal perspective, for the love of the gods people, get out there and book it so they extend it into...
We're in The Bubble end of April, and it's not allowing reservations beyond end of March.. Hopefully it's not a limited time thing, or I shall be... annoyed.
Might make a quick call to the Mouseline and see what is what.
EDIT: Oh god the hold music is making me want to end it all already...
If it's offering an interesting product that's not excessively priced compared to it's constituent parts, then although it meets the technical definition of a cash grab (a product designed to maximise profits) I'd not be inclined to be too negative about it.
At least it's not eating in those...
Fourth floor patio..
I might have to see if I can find time for this. It sounds like it would be a hoot. And not tooooo pricey all told. Five course, plus booze, for $150 gratuity Inc? That's actually reasonable.
Where's the catch?
There's a good review of it on the Disney Food Blog here:
