Keeping up with everything new happening at Disney World has basically become a full-time job at this point (that’s where we come in!)
Hurly-Burly
The parks are getting entirely new lands, major expansions are breaking ground, fresh rides are headed our way, and classic attractions are finally getting fixed up, so yeah, a lot is happening. But if we’re being honest, it’s the new restaurants that really get us excited. And right now, there is a lot of change at Disney’s BoardWalk. Let’s take a look.
We’ve been tracking the construction process of Hurly-Burly, Disney World’s new lounge at Disney’s BoardWalk ahead of its official opening date on October 1st. As that is coming up soon, progress is coming along pretty quickly now. Recently, a new SIGN appeared along the top of the building’s entrance, letting the world know that this is Hurly-Burly.

Hurly-Burly will be a family-friendly space in the afternoons for activities like trivia and other games. However, at night, starting at 9 P.M., the space will become a 21-and-over venue with live music and “coastal-inspired cocktails.” We can see that coastal theme carried out on the exterior of the venue as well with the new shades of blue.

The lounge is currently surrounded by planters and a guardrail, so we can only view the outside, but we are getting so excited for this new location to open in less than a month!
Opening Oct 1st
Hurly-Burly isn’t the only new restaurant coming to the Boardwalk! Disney confirmed that a brand-new quick-service restaurant is on the way to the BoardWalk, though details are being kept close to the chest for now. The official word is that more info is coming later this summer, and honestly, we think this is just what the Boardwalk needed — a solid counter-service option.
New quick-service restaurant coming soon!
While we don’t know the exact details, we can guess that it will be placed in the former Big River Grille & Brewing Works Restaurant. This is a big deal for resort guests who don’t always want a sit-down meal, and we’re very curious to see what Disney has in store. Right now, we just have construction walls up surrounding the former restaurant, but we are on the lookout for more information and updates!
We can’t wait!
A new shopping experience is coming to Disney’s Boardwalk Resort, and it’s going to offer vintage charm. The new retail experience is called Basin on the BoardWalk, and it will be rooted in the resort’s classic boardwalk heritage. The store will offer a sensory shopping experience that is described as “both timeless and distinctly new.” Right now hedges are surrounding the doors and windows, but we are waiting on Disney to share more information on this location.
