Pirate’s Beak and Barrel Lounge Opening Date, But There’s a Catch

Ahoy Mateys! We now have an opening date for the new Pirates of the Caribbean Lounge, the Beak and Barrel, but with a limited opening. Get full details and see when you can make advanced dining reservations.

Beak and Barrel Lounge

The Pirates of the Caribbean Lounge will be called The Beak and Barrel and will be open to pirates both big and small. All are welcome to raise a toast to the pirate life. Guests visiting this lounge will find a “sea-worthy selection of grogs and grub.”

Last week, Disney shared more information, including the different themed rooms featured in this space, along with a fun character, Rummy, serving as the tavern’s quartermaster.

We were a bit surprised to learn that guests will be limited to how long they can enjoy this cool new space. Check out full details for this new time restraint HERE.

Beak and Barrel Opening Date

Typically, we never recommend sitting down to eat during a party (or during the 4:00 to 7:00 mix-in). There is just too much to see and do, so including something you can do on another day is just not worth it.

However, we may rethink this tip for 2025. The Beak and Barrel will be offered on select nights August 15 through October 31 during Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party nights.

Disney has not shared when the Beak and Barrel will open for all guests visiting Magic Kingdom during normal operating hours. The website still shares “Coming Late 2025.“

Beak and Barrel Reservations

Walt Disney World Resort Guests can make Advanced Dining Reservations for Beak and Barrel starting on June 12, 2025. Please note that these reservations will only be available during Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party nights.

Beak and Barrel will offer a limited opening starting August 15, 2025.

Guests must purchase a special ticket for Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party to enjoy this dining experience. Continue to follow along when new opening information is released for the Beak and Barrel Lounge.

Update: Walt Disney World has now removed the information that Beak and Barrel will be available for Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party, but simply states that it will open in “Late 2025”. We are unsure if this was an error or if it will be available for party dates, but the news was revealed prematurely.
