The BOATHOUSE Restaurant | Boats, Bars, and Burgers!

Blog· Dining· MOVE

Ahoy diners!  Big gastronomic change is afloat in the former Downtown Disney area. Disney Springs is shaping up to become a dining oasis at Walt Disney World Resort. And despite its nautical vibe and seaside locale, The BOATHOUSE Restaurant is also where you can find the best burgers at Disney!

The BOATHOUSE Restaurant

The BOATHOUSE: Great Food, Waterfront Dining, Dream Boats

One of the newer, most unique destinations is The BOATHOUSE Orlando. And destination it is.  Schussler Creative (whose resume includes Rainforest Cafe, T-Rex Cafe, and Yak & Yeti) has partnered with The Gibsons Restaurant Group to build a total dining package. It includes a beautiful waterside location, handsome venue, a full and varied menu, and recreational options to round out your meal.

Boats

Our Amphicar ready to launch!

The fleet of 9 “Amphicars” are restored dream boats from the 30s, 40s, and 50s, and are each floating museums.  Ten other antique vessels are moored at The BOATHOUSE, but only 2 others are available for charter. They include the Venetian, a stunning 40-foot Italian Water Taxi, and the Lady Rose, a 19th-century steamboat.

The outdoor “museum.”.

Bars

This 24,000 square feet restaurant by-the-sea boasts 3 bars and seating for 600 in 3 dining rooms and an expansive outdoor deck.

Burgers

I cannot mislead you here, The BOATHOUSE Restaurant is upscale dining with a price point to match.  BUT, the first thing out of our charming waiter’s mouth was, “We have the best burgers on property.”  (Perhaps after our spin around the lake we looked more like chopped meat sea hands versus porterhouse ladies who lunch.)

He also highly recommended the Raw Bar, which my husband and I may have to try next week!

Best Burgers in Walt Disney World
My companion Janice from An Open Suitcase shared her “before” photo with me!

The Classic Burger may take a bit of the wind out of your sails at $18, but Janice enjoyed it.  Also offered are Filet Mignon Sliders, Gibsons “Sandwich King” Award Winning Burger (a spicy version of the standard), and Blue Angus Burgers ($10) on the Kids Menu.

The legend: Gibsons S’mores Baked Alaska

I felt compelled to include this dessert creation that her dear pal had sent over for Janice’s birthday.  It is listed as dessert for four, but we could have fed the entire restaurant with it.  Put simply, it is to die for and would make any special occasion SPECIAL.

The BOATHOUSE Restaurant

I suggest you immediately set sail for The BOATHOUSE Restaurant on your next trip to Orlando.  They serve until 2 a.m., so if you need a late-night burger fix, steer your vessel to The Landing!

    The burgers must be good if the waiters lead off with them! Price does seem high but sounds like you get what you pay for. – Lee Beatens/Disney Nouns

      Yes Lee- I was surprised that he wasn't suggesting the NY Strip! (Of course, we were there for lunch.) I was impressed that you could potentially go for the atmosphere and view of the boats, and have a modestly priced salad or sandwich. It's a winner!

    I've heard other good reviews about The Boathouse. The food looks quite good.

    A good burger starts and ends with the beef. I am intrigued by their "custom grind". I'd love to give their classic a try and take a spin around the lake in an Amphicar. I wonder if they'll get a burger duck?

      You MUST try the Amphicars James! What a hoot! And if you have lunch at The BOATHOUSE, you'll get a discount on your ride!!

The first in the nation ‘Excelsior Pass’ is live in New York State. Though the debate over privacy will rage, I assume Facebook and Google already have far more of my personal information than this app ever will. 

The trial will be used for access to stadiums and other venues, but in time expanded to businesses, WEDDINGS, and other social events.

The ‘Taste’ of Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival helped me complete my mission with the help of their 20 Outdoor Kitchens.
