Disney’s Pirate Tavern Opening – Will The Beak and Barrel Sink Magic Kingdom Family Fun?

It’s been revealed that The Beak and Barrel, a pirate-inspired tavern, will be making its debut in Adventureland at the Magic Kingdom on August 29, 2025, according to recent announcements by Walt Disney World.

Instead of being just another themed restaurant, this establishment is specifically a pub focusing on cocktails, beers, and wines, representing a notable progression in the park’s ongoing evolution regarding alcohol. Initially conceived by Walt Disney as a family-friendly, alcohol-free sanctuary, Disneyland, followed by Magic Kingdom built after Walt’s demise, strictly adhered to an alcohol-free policy.
