Dinner at The BOATHOUSE

The BOATHOUSE is one of our go-to table service restaurant locations whenever we want to dine in Disney Springs. We have always enjoyed their special dietary needs accommodations and terrific meals. On this occasion, we had an impromptu dinner at The BOATHOUSE during a visit to Disney Springs in early June after it had reopened after it closed during the COVID-19 pandemic. In this review, we’ll not only share our meal experience, we’ll also explore how the restaurant handled social distancing and other safety measures during our visit.

Dinner at Homecomin’ Kitchen

Homecomin’ Kitchen, located in Disney Springs, is one of those restaurants that I rarely go to. Not because it’s not good. But, because it’s so popular that it’s hard to get a reservation or be able to dine here as a “walk-up.” Brandon and I have tried to eat at Homecomin’ nearly a half a dozen times without success. On this visit, we stopped by in January later in the evening and were pleasantly surprised that the walk-up wait time was only 20-30 minutes. So, we decided it was finally time to have a meal there together, because while I had been there several times, Brandon had never eaten there.

The BOATHOUSE is a table service restaurant that is one of our favorites in Disney Springs. We often dine here with family & friends visiting or for special occasions, like birthdays. It’s definitely become a popular dining destination for us because it has a lot of variety and accommodation for guests with special dietary needs and the quality of the food & service is top notch. Recently, we had dinner here twice — once when a dear friend was visiting and another for Brandon’s birthday celebration with his family.

Lunch at T-Rex Cafe
