Opening Date & Drinks Revealed for Magic Kingdom’s Pirate Bar, The Beak and Barrel

Magic Kingdom’s new Pirates of the Caribbean themed pub now has an opening date! Guests won’t have to wait around long to try The Beak and the Barrel, as it’s opening on August 29th. The new tavern is in Adventureland, right outside of the exit to Pirates, and continues the story of the famed attraction. In this post, we’ll share more about the opening date as well as a look at the menu. Let’s get to the news!

The Beak and Barrel will be ready to welcome guests starting August 29, 2025. Reservations open on August 14 and we do expect them to go quickly. If Epcot’s new GEO-82 is any indication, The Beak and Barrel will be one of the hardest ADR’s (advanced dining reservations) to get in all of Disney World. This spot could be even more popular as kids are allowed.

 All around, you’ll be immersed in an adventure across the Seven Seas with nods to both the classic Pirates of the Caribbean attraction and beloved films. As you join the pirate fun, you’ll enjoy thirst-quenching tropical beverages, delicious small bites, sing-alongs, storytelling, and enchanting surprises. You can learn more about The Beak and Barrel’s backstory here!

Backstory and theme don’t look like they’ll be an issue here. So, what about the food and drinks? Here’s a sampling of what will be offered at The Beak and Barrel!

Pirates of all ages will be able to enjoy two tasty drink selections.

Beak and Barrel Merchandise at Walt Disney World

We’re eager to try out The Beak & Barrel and plan to do just that sometime this fall or winter. Opening weekend will be extremely competitive, with Destination D23 in town. If you’re aiming for that then be ready to try for a reservation bright and early on August 14th. As a whole, the tavern looks like a blast and will likely succeed (or fail) based on the atmosphere.
