WARNING! Disney World Quietly Changed This Hotel Restaurant Closure

By Lydia Storks Leave a Comment

It’s not uncommon to see closures in Disney World, so that rides, stores, hotels, or restaurants have time to refurbish and refresh.

A little while back, we learned that two hotel restaurants would be closing for a few months each to undergo some refurbishment. But now, the dates of those closures have changed!

At Saratoga Springs Resort, you can dine at the Turf Club Bar & Grill for a sit-down option, or head to the more casual Turf Club Lounge next door. These are the hotel’s only table service restaurants, and they’ll each be undergoing closures in the coming months.

Turf Club Bar & Grill

From late April to mid-August, The Turf Club Lounge will be closed. The Turf Club Bar & Grill will remain open with a pop-up bar serving a modified menu during that time. Originally, the lounge was supposed to close in mid-April, so it seems the date has been pushed back a little bit.

Then, from mid-August to mid-September 2026, The Turf Club Bar & Grill will be closed. The Turf Club Lounge will remain open at that time. It has more limited seating than the restaurant, so keep that in mind if you’re visiting during that window.

Also, from early to mid-August 2026, the Turf Club patio will be closed. This is the outdoor seating area that overlooks the golf course and Disney Springs. Thankfully, that closure will only last a few weeks.

We’ll be keeping a close eye on these dining locations to see if there are any major changes, and if there’s something noteworthy, we’ll let you know! The Turf Club hasn’t usually been on our list of must-try dining spots in Disney World, but it’s a great spot to stop if you’re staying at Saratoga Springs and want something a bit nicer than the quick service.
