Remember the Margarita Bar that was at Downtown Disney Marketplace? Great news! It’s been given a new look and a new name…and voila, Dockside Margaritas is born! Learn About: Dockside MargaritasDowntown Disney Disney World RestaurantsWe first told you about the new-but-not-quite new spot a while back. And ever since then, I’ve been eager to drop by and check out the new scene. So on a sweltering day last week, that’s just what I did. Let’s have a look. Dockside MargaritasI gotta say it — it looks awesome. In keeping with the new Florida-forward Disney Springs theme, Dockside Margaritas looks like a little stand you’d find in the middle of a citrus grove. But they’re selling stuff that’s waaaaaay better than orange juice. Dockside Margaritas at Disney Springs Marketplace The distressed, faded sign gives the spot built-in age. But the bright citrus green and yellow palette keeps it feeling fresh. Dockside Margaritas — Other side The open-air feeling of the bar lends to that “grove stand” feel. You can walk up and order from three of the four sides. And regardless of where you are, you always have a great view of Village Lake. Overhead Bar Menu and the View. You Can Access the Bar From Three Sides As you approach Dockside from the front — meaning the side that faces the shops, not the water — the largest area of seating is just to the right of the building. And I think that it’s really beautifully done as well. A pergola overhead gives a little protection, but still allows for plenty of sunshine. Strands of overhead lights and a stand set up for a musician hint at a scene that promises to be relaxed but festive as the sun goes down. Seating Area I can’t wait to meet friends here at night for a drink (or two). Another View of the Patio Looking back onto Dockside from the larger seating area, you also note that there is bar seating. Upon closer inspection, you see two bars actually — you can face the bar and chat with the friendly staff, or stare out over the water. Waterfront Bar Seating View of the Pedestrian Bridge But at this point, after much deliberation, it was time to settle on a drink. So let’s take a look at the options. And this is where it gets good. While the old spot was fine, just fine, for ordering a handful of tequila-based drinks and a couple of other options, things are way more interesting here. In addition to several interesting margaritas, check out the Florida Draft Beer options! There are also some exciting beer choices available in cans — note the http://www.disneyfoodblog.com/brewers-collection-2014-epcot-food-and-wine-festival/' target="_blank">Sch
