Disney’s BoardWalk is about to get a lot livelier. Hurly-Burly, the seaside theater lounge first announced back in June, opens on October 1, and Disney just shared a full first look at the menu ahead of opening day.
We covered the original announcement in our Disney BoardWalk changes guide, back when Disney confirmed Hurly-Burly but had not released a firm date. Now that the date is locked in, here is everything on the menu, plus what to expect when you walk through the door.
What Is Hurly-Burly?
Hurly-Burly takes over a theater space at Disney’s BoardWalk, themed as though it once hosted the district’s most celebrated vaudeville performers. The new concept leans into that storyline with a turn-of-the-century, nautical theme that runs through the food, drinks, and entertainment.
During the afternoon, expect family-friendly activities such as trivia and games. Then, starting at 9 p.m., the space shifts into a 21-and-older evening scene with live music. Because the vibe changes throughout the day, it is worth checking the Disney app for the current schedule before you head over.

Wine, Beer, and Hard Seltzer
Beyond the specialty drink menu, Hurly-Burly also stocks a rotating wine list, plus beer, hard cider, and hard seltzer options that lean into the BoardWalk’s East Coast setting. The wine selection covers sparkling, rosé, white, and red pours, while the beer list mixes local-feeling favorites like Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA and Brooklyn Lager with classic domestic options and a non-alcoholic beer for guests who want to skip the alcohol without skipping the tap. For the current lineup and pricing, check the Disney app once you arrive, since draft and bottle selections can shift.
Hours, Reservations, and Getting In
Hurly-Burly does not take reservations. It runs on a walk-up basis only, so there is no need to book ahead through the Disney app or My Disney Experience for this particular spot.
That said, if Hurly-Burly is part of a bigger BoardWalk day that includes a table-service meal elsewhere in the district, that is exactly the kind of reservation worth locking down early. Set a MouseDining dining alert so you know the moment a hard-to-get BoardWalk table opens up, and let Hurly-Burly be the easy, no-reservation stop that rounds out the night.
