I Spent $42 on This Happy Hour in Disney Springs and I'd Do It Again in a Heartbeat

If you know us, you know we love a fun dining option in Disney World. And today, we’re here to share with you one of the most underrated!

Summer House on the Lake in Disney Springs

Summer House on the Lake is one of the newer restaurants in Disney Springs, and it’s a popular spot for brunch or a meal with friends in a stunning, bright atmosphere. But did you know that they offer MARTINI HOUR?!

Every Monday through Friday at the Summer House on the Lake bar, you can stop by for Martini Hour from 3-6PM. The menu includes $10 martinis, a $5 glass of wine, and a $4 draft beer, plus “elevated bar bites.” Sounds like a dream, right?!

Martini Hour

For the martinis, you have a choice of the Classic, the Espresso Martini, or the Finn Collins. Wine options include red, white, and rosé, and the draft beer is one from a rotating menu. Those are some STEALS compared to drink prices elsewhere in Disney World. Our classic martini was strong and pretty basic, but exactly what you’d expect.

Classic Martini (which we decided to get dirty instead of dry)

If you prefer something on the sweet side, we recommend the Finn Collins. The pour was strong, so the gin shines through, and the flavor emphasis was more floral than “sugary” sweet. The lemon makes it nice and refreshing, though the rhubarb flavor didn’t really come through.

On the eats side of things, you could get First Class Warm Nuts, Summer House Tostadas, Two Saucey Chicken Tenders, the Prime Cheeseburger, or Bottomless Truffle Fries. You know those fries were just calling our name! They were just $10, and they’re bottomless for up to FOUR people. These fries are crispy, earthy, and aromatic — simply delicious.

We are SUCKERS for some truffle fries

The fries are even served with a spectacular truffle aioli on the side. We would’ve eaten this with a SPOON.

We also tried out the Lobby Cut Tavern Style Pizza for $12. This is the same pizza you’ll find on their lunch menu, which is a great hack, because on the lunch menu, it’s $19.95. You can add on sausage, pepperoni, or spicy giardiniera for an additional $3 each.

It’s served in bite-sized squares, so it’s easy to eat, and the crust is thin and crispy. It’s honestly pretty large for the price, so we’d recommend sharing with a couple of people — it’s not really a one-man dish.

Easy to eat!

If you’re looking for an excellent Happy Hour option in Disney World, we’d recommend this over and over again. Stellar food, affordable drinks, and a great view? We’re SOLD.
