🦜 Step Into a Pirate’s Life

The Beak and Barrel isn’t just a place to sip drinks—it’s an experience. The lounge is themed as a coastal tavern owned by Captain Merry Goldwyn and her feathered sidekick, Rummy, a talkative parrot inspired by the original Pirates of the Caribbean Barker Bird.

The Lounge Is Split Into Two Themed Areas:

• 🪵 The Mess: A lively communal area with flickering lanterns, pirate shipwreck décor, and Rummy himself perched high above the bar.

• 🏚️ The Captain’s Quarters: A more intimate, story-driven room filled with seafaring artifacts, animated bottle ships, and swashbuckling secrets.

And yes, there will be interactive storytelling, sing-alongs, and surprise appearances during your visit.

🍹 What’s on the Menu?

This isn’t your average tavern fare. The Beak and Barrel combines culinary creativity with Disney magic in both its food and drink offerings.
