DisneyDining Disney Dining Plan and Reviews
One of the most popular Walt Disney World lounges has been greatly missed throughout Disney’s phased reopening. We’re talking about Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort of course! While we previously shared it was looking like Disney was working behind the scenes to get this lounge open once again by renaming some menu items, we now have confirmation that yes, Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto is reopening!
Today is the big day at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, as it is officially reopening to all guests! Previously, only a portion of the resort was open to Disney Vacation Club resort guests. Now with the resort reopening, Disney has shared: “Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto, is reopening today (July 19) at the resort. You can now once again explore this amazing tropical tiki bar filled with interesting artifacts and exotic treasures and experience the romance of the South Seas through unique food and drinks.”
UPDATE – operating times are now listed! The webpage now shows 3:00pm to 12:00am. In the text below it states, “Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto welcomes the whole family—including children—from opening until 8:00 PM. After 8:00 PM, only Guests 21 years of age or older may visit.”
We’ll keep you posted as we learn more about Trader Sam’s reopening!
