raglan road

Raglan Road Irish Pub & Restaurant announced today that its quick-service Cooke’s of Dublin restaurant, popular for authentic fish and chips and gourmet burgers, will reopen June 3, 2020, at Disney Springs from noon to 10 p.m. daily. The adjacent table-service Raglan Road restaurant will reopen one week later on June 10, 2020.

Raglan Road will reopen from 4-to-10 p.m. daily with a compact menu of its delicious modern Irish cuisine and featuring authentic live Irish music and dance entertainment, says co-owner Paul Nolan. Reservations are recommended and can be made at www.raglanroad.com or by calling 407/938-0300.  Raglan Road’s Shop for Ireland gift boutique also will reopen during dining hours.

“We’ve had the most amazing support and encouragement from Raglan fans in weeks past, and we look forward to welcoming everyone back to enjoy our award-winning fare and vibrant pub atmosphere,” Nolan said. “Our reopening plan features quite a few steps to protect our employee family and all of our guests and friends.”

Raglan Road Irish Restaurant & Pub reopening safety procedures will include:

  • Employees’ temperatures taken daily
  • Six-feet-or-more social distancing where possible
  • Masks worn by all employees and required for guests to enter
  • Automatic hand sanitizer stations placed throughout the venue; enhanced surface cleaning and disinfecting
  • QR scan code on every table so guests can read the menu on their mobile phones
  • Dishes served covered from kitchen to table; single-use condiments available where possible
  • One-way traffic system in pub designed to reduce contact
  • Safety signs posted throughout
  • Safe screens mounted to protect Raglan employee team and guests

“This is our house, and the people who work here are our family. All of you who come here are our friends, so please join us in keeping everybody safe while we’re having a good time,” Nolan said.

Owned and operated by Irish partners John Cooke and Paul Nolan, Raglan Road features traditional Irish dishes and new creations with a Celtic twist.  The restaurant’s warm interior of aged walnut and mahogany woods from old Irish bars and churches was built in Ireland and shipped to Orlando for its 2005 grand opening.  Live entertainment nightly and during weekend brunch includes Irish house band shows featuring the Raglan Road Irish Dancers.  Raglan Road Irish Pub & Restaurant is located at Disney Springs in the Walt Disney World Resort, 1640 E. Buena Vista Dr., Lake Buena Vista, Fla.  Visit www.raglanroad.com or call 407/938-0300.

Missing Disney World Fastpasses and No Advanced Dining Reservations

Fastpasses

Guests are reporting that their Disney World Fastpasses have gone missing and that they are unable to make Advanced Dining Reservations from the My Disney Experience app and the Disney World website for July.

These changes might mean that Disney World is planning on opening the theme parks without advanced dining reservations or fastpasses. Disney shared the news yesterday that they are moving over to a new theme park reservation system and with Disney World operating on limited attendance and shorter hours so there may not be any need for Fastpasses or ADRs.

Here is the official word from the news we shared yesterday.

This phased reopening will demonstrate a deliberate approach, with limits on attendance and controlled guest density that aligns with guidance on physical distancing. That means certain experiences we know draw large group gatherings – such as parades and nighttime spectaculars – will return at a later date. In addition, “high-touch” experiences such as makeover opportunities, playgrounds and character meet and greets will remain temporarily unavailable, but characters will still be in our parks to entertain and delight our guests. 

Because theme park capacity will be significantly limited as we welcome guests back to the magic, we will manage attendance through a new theme park reservation system that will require all guests to obtain a reservation for park entry in advance. At this time, we are temporarily pausing new ticket sales and Disney Resort hotel reservations so we can focus on guests with existing tickets and reservations (Disney Vacation Club members can still make new reservations). Existing ticket holders and Annual Passholders will be able to make reservation requests in phases before new tickets are sold; we’ll be reaching out to these guests soon to provide additional details. We will resume new ticket sales and hotel reservations after that period of time. Theme park reservations will be limited due to attendance limitations and will be subject to availability. More details about this new reservation system will be available soon.

This could possibly be a glitch with the Disney World website or a hint at the changes coming to the Disney World theme parks in the coming months…

Celebrate Disney Burgers from around the globe on #HamburgerDay

Whether it’s a drippingly-delicious Bison Blue Cheese Burger at Disneyland Resort, a fun Mickey Mouse Glove Burger at Tokyo Disneyland, or an amazing Avengers Wagyu Beef Burger at Shanghai Disneyland Resort, hamburgers come in many different forms at our parks.  So for National #HamburgerDay we’ve ordered up some Disney burger magic, including a popular recipe and top grilling items for everyone at home.

Our global celebration of hamburgers begins at Tokyo Disney Resort with the unique Mickey Mouse Glove Burger and Mickey-shaped Rice Ball sandwich.  Also, Donald’s burger is a fan-favorite with a special yellow bun!

There’s a galaxy of stellar specialties for burger lovers at Shanghai Disney Resort, including the popular Avengers Wagyu Beef burger with a photo-worthy red bun.

Shanghai Disney Resort also features a classic American cheeseburger with sour cucumber and barbecue sauce in the middle of a bun stamped with Iron Man’s face!

At Disneyland Paris, the Dark Side Burger wowed guests as part of the offering during the Star Wars Season “Legends of the Force – A Star Wars Celebration.”

The PCH Mesa Burger – served on a hefty pretzel roll – is an attention-grabber at Disney’s PCH Grill at Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel at the Disneyland Resort. And just as spectacular – the Hungry Bear’s Bison Bison Blue burger at Disneyland park and the delicious burger at Storytellers Cafe at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa.

Also, for Hamburger Day, we’re releasing the recipe for the popular Hawaiian Cheese Burger and green papaya slaw from Tangaroa Terrace at the Disneyland Hotel.  Click here for a print-at-home version of this recipe!

At Hong Kong Disneyland, the amazing Beetroot and Cheese Burger are inspired by the Marvel-themed attraction, “Ant-Man and The Wasp: Nano Battle!” Other popular offerings during the launch of the attraction include a Green Tea Cheese Burger with a green bun and a superhero-themed Spicy Chicken Burger.

There are many great burger options at the Walt Disney World Resort and today, we’re focused on the unique Cajun King Burger with Andouille sausage and Creole mustard aioli at the Port Orleans Resort.  Also, the popular Southwest Burger from the ABC Commissary at Disney’s Hollywood Studios is a special treat – piled high with Pepper Jack cheese, bacon, guacamole and jalapeño poppers.

Also at the Walt Disney World Resort, the fantastic Mickey Burger at Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Café comes with macaroni and cheese, American cheese, cheese sauce, flaming hot cheese dust, and bacon served on a Mickey Mouse bun.

And If you need a burger fix ASAP, you can head over to D-Luxe Burger – now open at Disney Springs – for the Southern Burger, a masterpiece topped with a Fried Green Tomato, Pimento Cheese, Lettuce, Grilled Onion and Bacon.

As many of you know, we offer delectable plant-based options at our parks and resort hotels, and there are several favorites to share on Hamburger Day.   At Shanghai Disneyland Resort, the Gamma Ray Plant Burger features a large vegetable-based “pork chop”, sweet and sour tomato sauce and fresh lettuce in between a green matcha-flavor bun.

Other offerings include the BBQ Jackfruit Burger, a plant-based sandwich on garlic toast topped with BBQ jackfruit, that’s part of the Regal Eagle Smokehouse’s celebration of backyard barbecue at EPCOT, and the popular Impossible™ Burger with Vegan Chipotle Mayo, Lettuce, Tomato, and Cherry Peppers at  Disney’s Blizzard Beach water park at the Walt Disney World Resort.
