Walt Disney World fans, now in their 7th hour of refreshing the dining reservation page, can rest for the day. Hours of technical issues earlier today proved to be frustrating for guests looking to snag a reservation for the all-new Beak and Barrel Pirates of the Caribbean-themed bar, and now Disney says that reservations will not open today. Here’s what we know.
Beak and Barrel Reservations Will Not Open Today
A new message from Walt Disney World was just released, letting guests know that Beak and Barrel reservations will not be available today.
Due to technical difficulties, reservations for Beak & Barrel will not launch today. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please check back for updates.
The Beak and Barrel will open in Adventureland at Magic Kingdom on August 29, 2025, bringing a brand-new pirate-themed lounge to Walt Disney World. Located near Pirates of the Caribbean, this new offering will be the first full-service lounge in Magic Kingdom history, adding another option for guests looking to enjoy a bite to eat or a specialty beverage in the park.
The lounge is themed as a pirate tavern owned by Captain Meridian “Merry” Goldwyn and her trusty parrot, Rummy. Inside, guests will find nautical decor, nods to Caribbean voyages, and an atmosphere that blends the adventurous spirit of Adventureland with the storytelling Disney is known for.
Food offerings will consist of small plates inspired by flavors from around the world, with a focus on shareable items perfect for groups. The Beak and Barrel will also serve a variety of beverages, including specialty cocktails, non-alcoholic creations, and drinks available in souvenir mugs.
Beyond food and drink, The Beak and Barrel is meant to be an experience. Story elements tied to Captain Merry Goldwyn and Rummy will be woven throughout, giving the space a narrative that ties directly to its Adventureland location.
Walt Disney World has not announced when reservations will open for the new Beak and Barrel bar, but we’ll keep you updated when we learn more.
