Photos: All the Pirate Details of The Beak and Barrel at Magic Kingdom – Including Rummy the Parrot!
Originally announced back at the Destination D23 event in 2023, the new Pirates of the Caribbean-themed tavern, The Beak and Barrel, is set to open in a matter of days.
While Disney has shared small glimpses of what to expect once inside the new location, which takes over the former Pirates League at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom, today we got a full tour.
The new establishment is filled with details and touches that keep the spirit of both the attraction and the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. Take a look around.
When entering, the first large and lively space you’ll come across is The Mess, so named as it was once a mess hall for Spanish soldiers before it was claimed and repurposed by a cunning crew of pirates.
Plenty of Ships in a Bottle can be found throughout, appropriately enough.
Perhaps the most exciting element of all in this new lounge is Rummy the Parrot, an animatronic parrot inspired by the old Barker Bird at the entrance to the attraction. Rummy welcomes patrons and keeps an eye on the crew, quick with a story, joke, or song as he wobbles out from his main roost in the hollow of the skull’s eye.
A portrait gallery includes Captain Merry, the founder of The Beak and Barrel, as well as the Enchantress who gifted the establishment with the Enchanted Rum Bottle in the center of the skull bar – ensuring that the bar will never go dry.
The Mapmaker’s Room is filled to the brim with rolled up maps, pieces of parchment, spilled ink and many treasured secrets that belonged to a crazed pirate cartographer.
Fans of the attraction will love to see this sleeping pirate with a dangling foot hanging out above the map room, referencing the hairy-legged pirate in the attraction.
A bill board posts all kinds of pirate details. Take a look!
Along the wall, find four grand booths with intricately carved wooden panels. Each booth tells stories of the exploits of notorious pirates, whose legends still echo across the seas.
Stunning carved scenes depicting moments from the Pirates of the Caribbean films are found in some of the booths at the new establishment.
Of course there is merchandise available as well, including this t-shirt and shoulder pal plush, which are available in the gift shop next door, which also serves as the exit to the attraction.
Of course, aside from all the details and the ambience, the real reason people will be heading to this new location is the food and drinks! We’ve already talked about some of these items, and you can find out more about them in our post over here.
Don’t forget the glass below that is sure to be a must-have for many a pirate fan.
The Beak and Barrel officially opens on August 29th. For more information about booking your experience at The Beak and Barrel or visiting Walt Disney World in general, be sure to reach out to our friends at Mouse Fan Travel.
