The Disney owned and operated bar will be located just between Paradiso 37 and The BOATHOUSE in what was formerly the Pleasure Island area of Downtown Disney.
The aviation themed bar and lounge will have seating for 150, including both indoor and outdoor space.

The drink menu will feature unique cocktails – such as the “Hovito Mojito” with Barsol Quebranta Pisco, fresh lime juice and simple syrup. Although not strictly a restaurant, there will be small plates on offer, including “Air Pirates Everything Pretzels” with house-made mustard and beer cheese fondue, and “Rolling Boulder Meatballs.”
Wondering who Jock Lindsey is? Fans of the Indiana Jones movies will recognize him as Indy's pilot. Jock is also the owner of a pet snake named Reggie, which just happens to be the name of the steamboat that is in dry dock at the side of the bar - which also serves as part of the outdoor seating area.

Disney has just announced thirteen new tenants for the upcoming Disney Springs redevelopment of Downtown Disney, bringing more shopping and dining experiences to the Walt Disney World property.

Eight of the announced tenants are retail, with five dining locations rounding out what has been the biggest single announcement of new tenants since the Disney Springs project was unveiled.

Earls kitchen komt naar The Mall at Millenia

In Canada zijn wij al diverse keren bij deze keten wezen eten en zijn dan ook erg blij dat er in Orlando ook een filiaal geopend gaat worden.

Canadian "upscale casual" restaurant Earls Kitchen + Bar will replace Blue Martini at Mall at Millenia in early 2016.


Earls serves a combination of American and international fusion food, with items such as burgers starting at about $18. All dishes, according to a release from the restaurant, are made fresh with ingredients from scratch.
"The addition of Earls is another example of what makes The Mall at Millenia a unique destination," said Millenia manager Steve Jamieson in a statement.

Blue Martini owners said it is moving to The Pointe Orlando at 9101 S. International Drive. The restaurant and lounge is expected to reopen at the new location sometime this spring.

Earls joins several other new tenants at Mall of Millenia including men's and women's apparel retailer Robin's Jean, which recently opened along with Foot Locker women's spin-off, SIX:02. The mall is also adding Lilly Pulitzer and Under Armour stores this spring.
