Came here with a friend on a Wednesday night. I had a margarita on the rocks and it was very good. It's safe to say these margaritas are on the strong side. My friend got the slushy premade margarita and she mentioned it was hard to drink. Tasty but the icee made it hard to drink. We sat on the dock side and heard and saw a back/side view of the band playing from across the way. We had a great view of the volcanos erupting from the restaurant across the way. It was great weather making it a great night for margaritas on the dock. The price came out around $20 per drink. I took a star off because the bartender wasn't friendly. When asked what's the most popular margaritas her answer was "they are all good" she seemed upset because we didn't know what wanted and had questions. read more

Located in Disney springs, we decided to get a marg to end our night. They only have outdoor seating but it has a nice view to the rainforest cafe volcano. I opted for the frozen strawberry marg which was yummy but a little hard to drink through the paper straw. The watermelon marg was delicious and boozy. It was easy to order at the register and the line went by quickly. read more

I have been here twice, two years in a row just for their Halloween margarita. Big fan of both but the margarita in 2024's I remember having an eyeball gummy on it, which was definitely creepy and a huge fan of. I think I like that one way more than this year which was like an apple flavor. I don't normally go for the margaritas because I think they're just too sweet and I'd rather just have tequila and soda. But this is definitely fun and looking forward to next year's themed, creepy drink. Hoping when I come back in December, they have a Christmas margarita to try. read more

This place is so convenient and a great option if you want a drink but don't want to wait to get into a bar. It's a bit hidden so it doesn't get too crowded and has great drink options. I went with the seasonal margarita, which was delicious and unique! They do have a little seating area nearby but it's also easy to take these on the go while you walk around. It was decently strong and not a horrible price for Disney springs. read more

So happy to get a very good cocktail here any time I need it. We come often to Disney Springs. This oft overlooked location is a life saver. They have margs, and beer and a rotating rum drink. They offer great seating when you just need a drink and a break. Right on the water, super cute and chill. They often have a dude with a guitar strumming. Tap water around back!! read more

Dockside Margaritas - Pomegranate margarita - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Lake Buena Vista, Florida

This is my favorite spot to spend at Disney springs. The atmosphere is great. The staff is friendly. The drink prices are kind of pricey, but they are on the stronger side. My favorite drink they offer is the orange grove rum runner. Entertainment is here on the dock area, and most of the artists are very musically talented. Tonight was Phil Bonanno and he was great with the music choices and little jokes here and there. read more

In Orlando for our 34th anniversary, and always spend time at Disney Springs when we come to town. Wife remembered this place from our trip last year, and we wanted to sit in the shade, enjoy some live music, and something cold to drink. I found us a table while she went to the window, and Andrew Sapin was the musician here today -- wow, does he have a voice and can play and sing pretty much anything! We stuck around for two hours because we enjoyed him so much (yes, we got more to drink), and Andrew would take and play any requests! You've got to stop by for the refreshment, the atmosphere (right on the lake under a big pergola), and the amazing music. read more

I love this little margarita stand, and have been on both Disney trips. Love the watermelon margarita. First time we sat at the high top bar area facing the volcano at Rainforest Cafe and enjoyed our drinks while listening to live entertainment. Second time I got my drink to go and walked around. Both were fun and I would recommend the stop! read more

Adorable place to have a drink by the water and listen to the live band playing nearby and also with a view of the rainforest cafe volcano that erupts. The margarita could've been a bit stronger for my liking but still good. Bartender was friendly and quick. Nothing negative to say. read more

Dockside Margaritas is a waterside walk up bar that is themed after a 1960's fruit stand. This little hut style bar has a strong reputation for making delicious margaritas so the line is usually long. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. On my most recent visit I bypassed the margaritas and ordered two Orange Grove Rum Runners. ($30.00 plus tip) The drinks were delicious and definitely something that I would order again. read more

Dockside Margaritas - First rum runner - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Lake Buena Vista, Florida

Please note that this kiosk style bar operates in two ways: one side is a walk up quick service window, the other side is a sit and serve area with seating. They may not allow you to sit in the seating area without ordering from the waitstaff. About half of my group was caught unaware by this, but the staff accommodated us (luckily). Great spot for looking over the water towards the Marketplace side of Disney Springs. Menu carries a lot more than just margaritas. My favorites were their take on a Pina Colada and Long Island Ice Tea. Note: most of the seating is only partially covered, take the weather into consideration. That being said, grab a seat to watch the sunset over the water, the bar overlooks the amphitheater so you might get some live music in as well. read more

One thing is for sure: I am never disappointed by dockside margaritas. This hidden gem in Disney springs has a small but always excellently executed menu made up of frozen and rocks margaritas. They always have a seasonal feature which is usually delicious. The bartenders make balancing the perfect margarita look easy and deliver consistently amazing drinks. Whether you're a local looking for a drink to finish the night or start your vacation to Disney on a high note, this is the place for you. Dockside is a small stand tucked near the pin trading hut at Disney Springs. There's a small section of lounge seating, and some covered barstools around the back as well. Some nights, they have live music in the outdoor seating area. There are countless places around there to sit even when that area is full. read more

Updating this with COVID updates. Distanced and limited seating but still a cool place to hang out. Tom the server is back as well. read more

Dockside Margaritas is located in the Downtown Disney marketplace and has a walk up bar featuring a variety of alcoholic drink options. We chose the Dockside Iced Tea ($15). The drinks are always a great pour and service is always great. It can be slow if customers don't know what they want, so that can be hit or miss. Hey have a big patio overlooking the lake too, so it's a great spot to relax and enjoy the views! read more

This is a nice location at Disney Springs to have a seat and grab a drink and relax while enjoying the sunshine and live music. I go pretty often when we have friends or family in town. However, even though I go here frequently, it's only because it's one of the few options for an adult beverage while sitting outside. Since it's called "Dockside Margaritas", they obviously have them both frozen and on the rocks. They also offer beer and wine and a few other canned drinks and bottled water and non-alcoholic drinks and water, but they don't have a full bar. Every time I've been there, they have live music playing - it's usually one artist with a guitar and they're always really good, playing cover songs that are appropriate for the location (think Margaritaville and Jimmy Buffet songs). The seating options are great. They have bar seating as well as Dock bar seating that overlooks the water. They also have very comfortable patio lounge chairs and small couches with little side tables for resting your drink. The reason this only gets 3 stars is the only option for ordering drinks is to go up to the counter service window to order. It would be nice if they had a server to take orders so you could completely relax and enjoy your time, but no... you have to wait in the long line every single time someone wants a drink. And the line is always long and not very fast. It's also very expensive. All the margaritas are around $15 and they aren't that big - probably 8 oz serving. I ordered a White Claw the last time I was there since I try to keep it low carb most the time and it was over $10 once I tipped. Plus, they only have one flavor - Black Cherry. It would be nice to have at least to flavor options. I'm not sure how many beers or what types they have since I don't usually order beer here, but I'm pretty sure the beer is only available on draft and the selections are limited. So if you at Disney Springs and want a cool adult beverage while enjoy the Florida weather outside with live music, this is a good place for it. Just be prepared to wait in line to order your drink and to pay typical high Disney p read more

One of our favorite places to spend an afternoon in Orlando. Live music, great staff and a great Rum Runner. The music is almost always great and the entertainers are very interactive as well as the staff. I would argue that the best Disney bang for your buck in the adult beverage category is the Rum Runner here here. Either way its a great place to just sit relax, people watch, read or whatever you do to to take a load off. read more

Worst margarita on rocks that I have ever had. I order from Epcot and pool bars on Disney property and off property and most times we vacation in different areas, and was thinking this would be similar. Way too much margarita mix/sweet and sour plus lime juice. Could not even taste any tequila or grand marnier! It burned my throat with all the flavorings. Ended up throwing it into the trash. Ordered on the evening of 11/24/24. Sad when a place dedicated to margaritas that cost nearly $20 a pop has the worst drink out of literally every other place that I have been to. read more

Per strolled up for a Frozen Strawberry Margarita. Server was great and handled the customers pretty quickly. There are many different drink options to go with so we went with a favorite of ours. The Frozen Strawberry Margarita was like oil & vinegar. There was some frozen strawberry mix and something else. Something else because it was in or with a virgin cocktail drink so I don't think it was alcohol. It tasted good but it was 1/2 the size I expected and had zero potency as expected. read more

We stopped in here while we were visiting Orlando and we got a couple of drinks and it was really tasty and good prices of course we will sleep for the area but it was good on a hot day read more

We always look forward to site seeing on the water with a margarita in hand. There is always a line out front, but if you jump around the back or sometimes even the side on crazy days the lines are much shorter. While they may not be quite as good as the Epcot Mexico stand, they are definitely a close second. read more

Stoop in to watch the sunset and listen to music. Nice place. But here is a tip. Come a bit before sunset. There seems to be a shift change around 5 or so. They were slammed and it is the holiday time. Seemed short handed. Waited for a good 20 minutes before anyone came to take the drink order. Then another 15 to get the drinks..... Popular place. Not anyone fault just short handed. read more

Whenever I end up in Disney Springs I always stumble y upon this margarita bar. Very nice location, by the water (dockside). Such nice bartenders, always helping me with questions I have. I had ordered the frozen lime margarita and it was so so good. You can never go wrong with margaritas. Drink prices vary but most are around $13/$15 each, not too bad for quality drinks! read more

Dockside margaritas face us what was by far the standout moment of my entire vacation- a drink on the water, watching the sunset over Disney Springs. It was calm, in the distance you heard live music, and it was lively. It's worth noting that this was before the pandemic, but there's no doubt that Disney springs will be my first destination once the pandemic is over, and dockside margaritas will be my first stop. read more
