Following an update to the Walt Disney World website yesterday that appeared to reveal that the new Beak and Barrel Pirates of the Caribbean bar would debut exclusively to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party guests, Disney has removed the information. Here’s what we know.
UPDATE: Disney World Removes Booking Information for Beak and Barrel
Yesterday, Walt Disney World announced a bunch of details for this year’s edition of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. Also seemingly announced was that guests staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel would be able to make reservations for the Beak and Barrel bar starting June 12th. The announcement was worded in a way that made it sound like the bar would debut exclusively to guests attending Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. All guests would be able to make a reservation starting June 16th. It wasn’t clear if the June 16th reservation window would include all dates for the Beak and Barrel or just dates during Not-So-Scary.
Honestly, it was a weird announcement and one that I called the “oddest dining reservation story that I’ve covered to date”. What made it especially odd is that Walt Disney World had not announced an official opening date for The Beak and Barrel yet. Typically, those announcements come via the Disney Parks Blog or Disney’s social media accounts – not a website update.
Now, Walt Disney World has completely removed the wording that was present on the Beak and Barrel webpage yesterday. We’re essentially back to square one, with the only information on the website being the following:
“The Beak and Barrel is scheduled to open in late 2025. Advance reservations are strongly recommended. Check back later for details about making reservations.”
As of right now, we’d consider the information published yesterday to have been an error, and we would plan on The Beak and Barrel still being on track for a “late 2025” opening.
