You can find Tambu Lounge in Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. The restaurant is located on the second floor of the Great Ceremonial House, home to the resort’s main lobby. Next door to this lounge you’ll find ‘Ohana, Kona Island, and Kona Cafe, all found on the second floor. For Guests visiting the resort by monorail, you will exit the monorail onto the resort’s second floor and see Tambu Lounge straight across the resort’s entrance.
Quick Service or Table Service?
This dining location is a Disney lounge, which means you don’t need a dining reservation to stop by. Guests can order at the bar and dine at the bar if seats are available.
Atmosphere
Tambu Lounge offers a fun, but laid back dining environment. The Lounge offers seating at the bar, as well as surrounding couches and lounge chairs. If you’re looking for a cocktail at the end of a Park day at Magic Kingdom, or while resort hopping, this is the place to be.
Menu Options
If you’re looking to grab an appetizer, stop by between 4:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. Delicious plates include Pot Stickers, California Roll, Big Kahuna’s Hot Wings, and Kaikane’s Barbecued Pork Ribs. Non-alcoholic drinks include the Keiki Lemonade and Agave Garden. Signature cocktails feature the Polynesian Mai Tai, the Rum Swizzle, the Piña CoLAVA, the Bahama Mama, and the Lapu Lapu, served in a whole pineapple. For the complete menu, Guests can visit the My Disney Experience app.
Dining Tips
Beginning, January 9, 2024, Tambu Lounge will accept both Disney Dining Plans. This means that Guests using the Disney Dining Plan or the Quick Service Dining Plan can redeem Quick Service meal or snack/beverage credits. Also, while this location isn’t quite as lively as Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto, there’s still a few drinks that come with fun twists. Try out the Backscratcher on your next visit for a fun surprise!
