News New Pirates of the Caribbean-themed lounge

[PREMiERdrum]

But Pecos is not becoming Tiana's Palace, per @ToTBellHop ?

Not becoming Tiana's, but still getting some work apparently. The more ambitious conversion was shelved, unfortunately. It looked good.

 

[Centauri Space Station]

So exactly what I thought..not lacking for any dining capacity whatsoever.

Just as you thought except twice as many as was claimed

 

[JoeCamel]

There will be food, too. The question is: how extensive of a menu?

I hope they do better than Skipper Canteen. This should be themed to the nines.

They should have a bunch of effects and AAs, I think I know where a bunch of recently surplus ones are.....

Tortuga never had a kitchen so whatever can be shared

Yup the only inside info I’ve heard about this project was that “it’s going to be larger than people realize” which makes me believe it’s here and not in the old Pirates League space. But we’ll see.

I kind of stopped caring but they need a permanent spot for beignets.

Except it leaves Adventureland with no proper QSR location. It’s a poor decision and further overwhelms other venues.

Did the spring roll cart kick the bucket too?

IMO, Tortuga Tavern became irrelevant once they quit serving Tex-Mex, which was some time after 2014. I know it came out of the same kitchen as Pecos Bill, but when some of the items were simply moved to the PB menu, there were some changes made to them and they weren’t as good as they used to be. The taco salads and burritos at Tortuga Tavern were always good and the portions were large.

we miss those taco salads with the fixings bar. if i remember it was a good price for what u got.

I WASN'T INSANE!!! Friggin' Disney gaslighting them with their mobile taco bars.

Well, I wouldn't count the carts as Counter/Quick Service. It's more of a snack thing. And that only leaves... ten...

Holy crap there's a lot.

And honestly Tortuga's at a bit of a disadvantage as it's stuffed in a corner of the park that's not a major thoroughfare and the most traffic the far street to Frontierland is people getting off Pirates and going to the mountains... but Pirates takes people in before Tortuga and lets out people where the quickest route is to go out the other side of Tortuga. It's very easy to completely miss it.

I want gumbo.

Is everything between the bathrooms and Skipper Canteen a part of Skipper Canteen? It would be a nice location to access the Diamond Horseshoe kitchens that have to be back there.

How do you know that whatever happens won't also look good?

 

[davis_unoxx]

Will it have Jack Sparrow theming?

I’m sure they’ll replace the capacity as soon as their done making up for the Tomorrowland Terrace and the Adventureland Veranda closures. They haven’t been closed that long.

I was only really counting non-snack type things. Basically I'm thinking places where you have menu choices.

A Buena Vista Construction permit for the Caribbean Plaza...

4873 CARIBBEAN WY # B(CARIBBEAN PLAZA) - Provide labor, material and/or electrical for construction

 

[danlb_2000]

Haven't seen any permits for Tortuga but there was an electrical permit for Pecos Bill's this week.

In terms of QSRs, it feels like Sunshine Tree never gets a footing in a land with another, better known soft serve Dole product location. They have access to the Skippers Canteen kitchen and I wish they’d turn it into a Bengal Barbecue type place.

But sir the Citrus Swirl (that the technically do not have anymore, the original mix has been replaced with dole whip orange for a while now)

Here’s a look at Tortuga Tavern from today. The windows to the food service area are completely blocked out from the inside.

I want gumbo.

Well they could always serve gator at disney. That would certainly turn a disadvantage into an advantage. They can even claim they are locally sourced and freshly made every day. No one will start to wonder why the gator signs suddenly vanished. Only that there were a lot of gator items suddenly on the menu at disney. It does line up with cajun cooking though.

 

[JustInTime]

My source just confirmed Tortuga will be the home of the new pirates bar at Magic Kingdom. It will operate similarly to Oga’s business model.
