We are back at the Beach Club Marketplace, the Beach Club Resort’s counter service restaurant and merchandise location.
Better known in many ways for being a gift shop, the Marketplace tends to get overlooked in favor of some the more popular spots nearby.

But here we are at this unassuming stop tucked in the back of the Marketplace to check it out a little more. The last time we visited the Beach Club Marketplace, it was to grab a late night dinner (well, not counting our annual holiday visit to see the Beach Club’s Gingerbread Carousel). But our more recent stop here was in the A.M. hours. I’d heard something about a French Toast Bread Pudding that seemed pretty fantastic, so over to Beach Club Marketplace I went!
