The Beak and Barrel to Open During Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party

The Beak and Barrel to Open During Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party

The Beak and Barrel will be open for business during Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Parties. And Disney Resort hotel guests will get the first crack at reserving tables. Here’s the announcement from Disney:

“Want to dine at this restaurant during Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party? Starting September 3, 2025, Disney Resort hotel Guests can make reservations for dates up to 60 days in advance of their arrival, for the entire length of stay (up to a 10-night stay). All other Guests can book starting September 8, 2025. Learn about booking windows.”

The “length of stay” perk is a big win for hotel guests. But while I’m excited to check out The Beak and Barrel, I wouldn’t do it during Mickey’s Christmas Party. Those events are already packed with exclusive entertainment and experiences, so setting aside 45 minutes for a tavern I can visit any other time doesn’t make much sense to me. I’d rather drink complimentary eggnog, watch Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmas Parade, and ride Space Mountain with its bonkers holiday overlay.
