Walls down - Fantasyland soft opening status

[Weather_Lady]

I love the water feature...

Stunning! This is the first time I've seen the Beast's castle and found the forced perspective to be utterly convincing. If you were to take the same picture in 24 hours, you will see a middle-aged brunette splashing happily around in that water in her bare feet and singing about how she wants adventure in the great wide somewhere, hotly pursued by a bevy of security types. That will be me.

This photo shows DDP next to it (pork). I would guess that it would count for a counter service credit, while the rest of the stuff are "snacks". Would they do that?

"Specialty beverages" -- and I assume LeFou's Brew will be one -- are not covered under the DDP at all (at least, not the standard one). They're always out-of-pocket.

That symbol general means it is a snack. It is listed with the "snack" type items. There would be a lot of confusion if they tried to pull something like what you suggest.

Well if the photo is a true and accurate photo of the menu, it appears that the Brew is a snack if you don't get the special cup. Generally I would agree with you comment, but it seems like there are few things on this menu where they may have departed from the norm. We need confiormation from someone inside the park, who undoubtly are there now (at lunchtime) enjoying the first lunch rush!

Are there other "specialty beverages" already? I know there are the glow cube thingys but that would be the same exclusion as the souvenir cup version not included right?

Indeed, but I wouldn't put it past them. Is there anywhere else you can get an $8 snack?

I can't think of any

Has anyone actually rode the LM yet to confirm changes?

Does anyone know how long they will be allowing guests in today? Is there a timeframe?

This photo was posted by WDWMAGIC of the actual sign in the Tavern. It looks like the DDP logo is covered next to the Pork Shank. So that would seem to suggest it is not a DDP snack option.

Sorry can't get the image to post in here. Link is attached.

They put tape over the ddp icon for the pork shank. I guess they realized they were not going to be offering a $7.99 snack credit.

Lol I tried posting that 3 times. Neither the wifi or 3G is being nice

We are going the first week in November. If this is going to actually be open when we go my year will have been made.

 

[WDWBryan]

Btw the pork shank is very good. I think I like it more than turkey leg.

And the apple cider is refreshing too. But not as good as butter beer.

Hey all! Any rumblings about soft openings this weekend?

Here's a close-up of Steve's latest picture. You can see the DDP removed.
