Where to Get a Famous Hollywood Studios Dish WITHOUT a Reservation

Planning to drop by Disney’s Hollywood Studios and wondering where you might want to stop to grab a snack or full meal?

Disney’s Hollywood Studios Entrance

There are a few restaurants with tasty options in this park, but one particular fan-favorite is The Hollywood Brown Derby. What if you want to grab some of the delicious menu items from the Brown Derby (including that famous Cobb Salad) without a reservation and without the full indoor dining experience? There’s one spot that has fully reopened in Hollywood Studios that gives you the opportunity to do just that!

The Hollywood Brown Derby Lounge is an outdoor lounge located just next to the Brown Derby restaurant in Hollywood Studios. The Lounge is typically a great spot to sit down under an umbrella, grab a drink and a few tasty snacks (including a Cobb Salad), and relax.

The Hollywood Brown Derby Lounge has been open in a limited capacity for quite some time now, but it had only been serving up a variety of drinks for guests to enjoy. Now, things have changed!

When we passed by the Hollywood Brown Derby Lounge today we saw that it has now fully reopened and is once again serving up some tasty treats (in addition to a variety of drinks)!

They’re Open!

The menu includes a variety of food options including the Cobb Salad, a Charcuterie Board, and a Shrimp Cocktail, among other things.

The Lounge doesn’t accept reservations. Instead, seating here is available on a walk-up basis. You may be able to join the Walk-Up Waitlist virtually if there is availability, so be sure to check on your My Disney Experience app.

Walking Up to the Lounge

There are a variety of seating options available in this space, but the tables are relatively small so if you’re traveling with a larger group that’s something to keep in mind.

Seating Options

The next time you’re in Hollywood Studios and looking for a spot to take in the sights and sounds while enjoying a drink and snack, you can stop by the Brown Derby Lounge to see if there are any spots available.
