Boatwright’s Dining Hall in Disney’s Port Orleans Resort — Riverside is a casual spot away from it all.
As the story goes, you’re dining in a restored boat-construction warehouse — you can even see the skeletal-looking wooden hull of a fishing boat suspended from the ceiling. Food is down-home and plentiful, featuring Southern Louisiana favorites.
This is a great place to go if you’re staying at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort — Riverside, or if you’re looking for a restaurant when you don’t have a dinner reservation. Not many folks head here for a meal, and we find it to be something of a hidden gem.
PLEASE NOTE:  Port Orleans Resort — Riverside reopened on October 14, 2021; however, Boatwright’s remains temporarily closed. It should reopen sometime in December. We will update this page with more information as soon as a reopening date is announced!
