Cinderellas Castle at Disney World

Outdoor dining might not be your first choice when visiting Disney in the heat of summer, but when it comes to outdoor seating, the waterfront view or ambiance can be well worth grabbing that outdoor table! 

Who doesn’t love some fresh air? Yes, indoor dining is okay too but basking in the open air while looking at the pretty sights is also pretty amazing, isn’t it? Dining outdoors in Disney can be a new experience you can try, and will absolutely enjoy.

Here are twelve delicious places for outdoor dining at Disney World.

BaseLine Tap House

This lounge is more like a full-service restaurant, and on a breezy day, the background music and delicious food make for a great spot to take a break outside.

Pineapple Dole Whip at Disney World

Did you know there’s actually a lot of Disney outdoor dining places? If you didn’t, well now you do! How about you try some of these and ditch the indoor seating for a while. Disney’s outdoor patios give the best views and now you can try them too for your next trip.
