Ballast Point Brewing Anaheim

Ballast Point Brewing in Downtown Disney is a fantastic spot! The location is perfect—right in the heart of the action, but with a laid-back vibe that makes it a great place to relax. The food and beer are both excellent, with a wide selection to choose from. Last time I was there, there was no wait, which was a pleasant surprise for such a popular area. The atmosphere is lively but not overwhelming, and the service was friendly and attentive. Whether you're a beer lover or just looking for a great meal and a chill place to hang out, this is a great choice.

Good spot to grab some food and recharge. Good music playing, good service, easy to get in and out. The Flatbread pizza was good, Buffalo chicken sandwich was really good, a great combo of Buffalo and ranch. Fries were nice and crunchy with a good seasoning.

The space is large and the atmosphere is nice, especially if you’re looking for a good beer selection… but the food is pretty lacking and kind of basic. It almost felt like reheated prepared meals. I’ve heard great things about the Long Beach location, which I still plan to try. I will say that the food came out pretty quickly and the ordering process was smooth.

Came through on a Saturday afternoon and it was a 25 minute wait for our party of 6. Overall the interaction with the downstairs hostess was really smooth and quick. She provided us updates every so often, so it didn’t feel that long at all. Once we were called up the stairs, it was smooth sailing to our brews and food. The nachos were pretty decent albeit a bit smaller than your typical bar style nachos. The Mozz burger was on point though. I’m still not sure what it was, but it really hit the spot with the Hazy IPAs. The burger was kind of like a Sloppy Joe, wet and messy. The kid’s cheeseburger was pretty well made and the kiddo seemed to enjoy it. We opted to go with carrots and a chocolate chip cookie. Wawaweewa, that cookie was good. The kiddo went ham on that thing. I snuck a little piece and it sure was a banger.

Fantastic spot on the Disney Centre walk. They have a great range of beverages. Tried a berry sangria which was fresh and full of flavour. Also had the imperial stout, another great drop. We had the habanero wings, they had a tasty glaze and were delict

The fish tacos were decent but at Disney prices. I would choose Ballast point is you’re looking for good beer, a cool location, and average food. Any of their sculpin IPAs are solid if you like hops.

Ballast Point is a great place to stop by for a bite or drink. The buffalo wings are very flavorful and definitely recommend them. We also orders a kids cheeseburger, which came with fries, a drink, and a cookie for only $15 which is such a great deal and a good portion for an adult also. The pepperoni flatbread was decent, not much flavor but good. **Also, if you ask them to validate your parking they will. It won’t be free but definitely cheaper than normal. **

Ordered a sourdough pretzel (think Costco or Sams Club and that’s what it is), a pepperoni flatbread (soggy and undercooked) and 8oz beer. Very disappointed in the effort this place made to serve food. I had to use a napkin to sip up the milky runoff of the serving plate. I did inform the waiter and he said he’d let the “chef” know. The beer was good, but not worth $7 for 8oz.

We were hungry and in search of a restaurant to eat at; stumbled upon BP at the Downtown Disney District. There were a few people in line but since we were a group of two; we got called and seated fast! The restaurant was upstairs. Plenty of tables, seat and they have a bar area. Nicely decorated. Our waitress was friendly and helpful. She took care of us. We ordered the fried chicken sandwich with garlic Parmesan fries and Birria Quesatacos. Both were amazing! Fresh ingredients, delicious! 10 out of 10. The birria quesataco photos did not do justice but in person; it was really good. It had a lot of flavor. Fried chicken sandwich was seasoned and cooked well. Highly recommend! In my honest opinion, I think Downtown Disney has way better food than the parks.

We popped in for a quick bite and drinks after a long day. All the other restaurants had very long wait times so I highly suggest reservations ahead of time. Anyway, we thought we check this place out. They seated us nearly right away and we had a party of 6. We ended up sitting on the patio upstairs outside and thank God we did. We had amazing seats and shortly after we sat the Disneyland fireworks show started going off. It was such a great surprise and we are so glad we got to see it. The food was good as well as drinks. However there isn't a lot of adult beverages meaning cocktails o the menu. For the food and drinks you scan a QR code to order and pay for everything. Then the food or beverages are brought out to you. I have to say it all came out extremely quick. My husband and I ordered drinks and shared the birras tacos and it was delicious! Comes with two tacos, consommé and chips with salsa. We also had the calamari which was just okay and oddly had cherry tomatoes on it with a ton of garlic. My daughter had fries and everyone thought they were really good and my niece order the Poke bowl and seemed to like it. Overall, it was okay. Pros; The tacos The Disneyland fireworks Not a long wait time Cons; No waitress ordering Not a huge drink menu Staff only greets you when they bring your food out and do not check back. Not sure I would go back with all the other options in Downtown Disney. I just highly recommend making reservations first.

I usually just swing by for a beer, and let me tell you, they've got the variety! While I'm not the biggest fan of hoppy brews, the last one I tried was a smoky-flavored stout. It was intriguingly different with smoke taste yet quite good and heavy, though it did curb my appetite for more. This spot is always a fantastic place to stop when at Disney. Plus, they definitely help validate parking much faster than other places, which is a huge bonus!

Came to this restaurant to meet up with some friends after spending the day at Disneyland. I understand the food is "bar food" but I just didn't LOVE my food. I ordered a burger with fries and the burger just didn't hit the spot. Didn't have a lot of flavor unfortunately. The fries were very good though. We sat outside in the patio and it's great for people watching and enjoying the evening weather. Service was good too as the food comes out pretty fast when you self order on your phone.

Came here with my boyfriend for dinner before heading into Disneyland. We got seat right away. And we ordered fish tacos and aguachile. And watermelon water. 10/10 everything! The fish tacos were flavorful and the aguachile was delicious! And definitely my favorite dish! Service was great! And plenty of space.

Hands down one our favorite and most frequented stops on our trip. Most nights we opted to leave Disney early to go for appetizers and drinks. I'm not typically a fan of beer, but they offer a great sour and my only regret is o don't know if I can find it at home here in Arizona, but better believe I'm going to look. Service was awesome and all the bartenders were great. Location is busy and you must check the hostess station to see accessibility upstairs. We chose bar seating which is typically quicker except for the night my son was with us and we sat a a nearby table top. The atmosphere is fun and food great. I loved the wings.

Came here for an early lunch and it was great! I went solo. I spoke with the host and let him know I was dining solo and said I can sit at the bar. I walked the stairs going upward. I had the option of choosing to eat inside or in the patio. I chose the patio. It was very neat, not too many people yet but just a few people occupying the spaces on the patio. Gina was my server and came already with a glass of water. Great service! And I did let her know it was my first time here. She said the QR code that's middle of the table is how we order and we add it to our cart as if we do online shopping. It was easy to use and only had to wait about less than 10 min for my food to come out. I had ordered the pepperoni flatbread which comes in dice decent prices (perfect), and along with my water I had ordered the Arnold Palmer (Non-Alcoholic beverage). Coming back and will be trying their other items on menu and their other adult beverages.

Two stars for quick and friendly service, and good beer. What ruined the experience was how bad the pizza flatbread was. I'm not even exaggerating when I say it was the worst pizza I've ever had in my life. I even told my husband that cafeteria food pizza was better than this. The bread was soggy, the sauce dripped out and seemed kinda watery. The cheese was thick and tasteless, and none of it stuck to the bread. For $22, I was expecting something a little better. We ate it because we were hungry but afterward felt gross. I'm very hesitant to even go back because I don't want to risk paying a lot of money for something that won't taste good.. that's how bad the pizza was.

Great location, with a view of downtown Disney. There are lots of drink/beer options given that it is a brewery. We tried there "cocktails" which were more of a agave wine and not hard liquor. The spiked Horchata was tasty, not super strong. Food quality is what is bringing the review down to a 3 star. Selection is very limited and over priced. The pretzel was stale and did not feel fresh, and beer cheese dip felt like just cream and very runny. Fries were just average with an above average price tag. Thought about getting the steak nachos, but decided not to because the neighboring tables order looked dry - can't comment on taste, just appearance.

Two chicken sandwiches Chicken was juicy, had a good little bit of spice Fries weren't super hot but that's OK, ranch is tasty One smash burger w/ impossible patty Brioche wasn't terribly soft and a bit thick, impossible patty was OK Pizza flatbread Very pretty greasy, just kind of messy because the toppings were sliding off so much, they didn't feel connected to the bread Buffalo wings Really big wings, 7 of them in an order. Good spice level Blackened fish tacos Only 2 tacos for $21 is kind of a rip, the fish was good but not very much inside given the size of the tortilla. Chips were OK, would've preferred them to be hot or warm. Salsa is a bit bland Pineapple sculpin I remember more of a pineapple flavor in the past, but also I could be crazy. Experience: wait was quoted at 45 minutes at about 6pm on a Sunday. It was good to have all of Downtown Disney to walk around. The staff were pretty quick to get our drink and meal orders. Overall, the Ballast Point in Long Beach has the same offerings, but with an infinitely better atmosphere by the water. Perhaps consider other options around Downtown Disney OR a nearby place, unless you really like Ballast Point's beers.

We used to love this place when it first opened. The food was great service was good and of course the beer is spot on. Our recent visit left us a bit disappointed. The service was good over all and food was decent. The facility itself was unclean, It seemed to be unkept and the floor was very wet. Me and my wife almost fell because of how wet the floor was. Overall it wasn't a terrible experience but this won't be our first choice next time.

Totally forgot a photo but whatever you do, do NOT leave without ordering the carne asada flatbread! Ohhhemgeee!!! This is one of the best flatbreads that I have devoured! I would drive to Cali just for this! Great service and lots of seating! Danny and Jared were fantastic! Fun spot!

I love burgers and I was pleasantly surprised at how good their burgers were. I was uncertain about this place due to the reviews but the burger was delicious! It wasn't too thin like most smash burgers and had a delicious flavor! The fries were pretty good. The food is definitely 4 stars. When we come back we want to try the nachos! The service was ok. If you sit at the bar or bar top then you scan a QR code and order from there, and pay when you're done. The servers kinda leave you alone unless you flag them down. The ambiance was nice. Located up stairs, but they do have an elevator. It's clean inside and nicely lit. We enjoyed our time!

TL;DR: Ballast Point Lite. Everything is just alright - nothing special. Not really worth the money even with it being Downtown Disney Came to Downtown Disney to celebrate an 8-year-old's birthday and with our large party, the service was really good - super attentive Thought we could depend on Ballast to uphold a certain level of quality Unfortunately, the rest of the meal was just ok Ordered the chicken sandwich and while the crunch was good, there was no miso flavoring at all. It was definitely not worth the $23 price tag I'd personally recommend staying away from the mains and use ordering off the shareables - wings were the best - garlic fries were decent - Brussels were over-sauced Next time I'm in Downtown DIsney, I'll remember to try something new

I love going to restaurants at Downtown Disney because there's such a vibe to it! We were able to do a walk in and get seated right away. I got the Nashville Hot Wings, Pretzel Sticks, and a Mangozuma's Revenge. The wings were a bit dry, but the flavor was definitely there. As for the drink, let's just say don't drink it too fast if yk yk. My favorite was probably the pretzel sticks. It was warm, soft, and filled with so much flavor in the dip. I really enjoyed my boyfriends order of the smash burger and would probably get that next time. Thanks to Ricky for an awesome night! We asked him for recommendations on the drafts and he allowed us to try samples of a few :)

Loved our visit to this location! I love Ballast Point beer and was excited to see a brewery location at Downtown Disney for our trip. I was only bummed by the short menu (it usually has more on it during busier seasons) which eliminated the plant based option. We still had a phenomenal experience. I love ordering my beer to the size I prefer. And I love Sculpin IPAs! Woop! We sat at a high top and used the QR code to do most of the in person work for the servers. We selected the delicious smash burger- they really have perfected the burger- truly one of my faves. And I also tried the honey miso chicken sandwich and ohemgee it was one of the best chicken sammies EVER. Highly recommend. The garlic parm fries are really good. Overall a win.

I wad in town for a work function. We had a work luncheon in Orange County and they were able to accommodate a group of 16. Staff was helpful setting this up for us and provided great service for our luncheon. This place is located in the middle of DownTown Disney right next door to The Black Tap. They have a variety of appetizers and entrees. I don't drink but they have a nice selection of the beers for those drink responsibly. Since I am not currently eating meat on Fridays, they had several seafood items on the menu. I had the Baja Fish Tacos and it was delicious. The meal came with two big sized fish tacos and the fish was battered and seasoned nicely. It was topped with shredded cabbage, pico and crema fresco and had the cilantro verde salsa which tasted amazing all together. It also came with jicama fries seasoned with tajin or chile lime seasoning! And my table shared a group of French fries which was nicely crisp and had their house seasoning. Overall my food was good and it looked like everyone ate up all their food. It all looked good that I didn't get to take more pictures of the food because everyone was hungry haha. I'd go back to try the fish tacos, poke bowl, smash burger.

To start out, very family friendly and great place to hangout with friends. My girl and I decided to have an early lunch somewhere new for one of our Disney trips and Ballast Point, located at Downtown Disney, did not disappoint. I thought Ballast Point was just for beers and to chill, which it's still perfect for, but their food was actually really good. They have QR codes on their tables which directs you to the menu. Through the link, you order and pay your bill; you can even keep a tab open *wink wink* :). Very simple and easy. The downside is that you have to hunt for a worker if you have any requests, such as sauces or water. But overall, great experience, delicious beers, tasty cocktails and delicious food.

Great selection of beer. Tried their michelada and loved it. Nachos I ordered were decent tasting. Sat at the bar top and service was super friendly and attentive. Would come back again if I'm in the area.

We had grade A service here with the friendliest crew! Located in downtown disney, these folks don't skip a beat! Everything is ordered through your phone when you scan the QR code at your table. It's already numbered so they know exactly where to deliver your food. We tried the pepperoni and cheese flatbread, shared chicken strips and fries, decided we were still hungry, so we ordered fish tacos with jicama fries! The jicama fries were interesting! My brain played tricks on me as I bit into the jicama sprinkled with tajin. All in all, everything was delicious including the cactus coolers. I'm such a lightweight, so this drink would be dangerous because it taste crisp, light, and refreshing! Don't forget to get your parking ticket validated before you leave. You get 5 hours of validation when you at any of the restaurants at downtown Disney. We loved the chill vibes here and the outdoor seating option!

Best place to get a quick bite to eat (that's delicious also) and u get validation for parking. The fish and chips was good... But those garlic parmesan fries yumm. The chicken wings we bought awhile ago so don't remember and will have to reorder soon. If u don't drink, the watermelon water is a must. Otherwise they have a ton of alcohol to choose from.

Came here for dinner. They have tons of seating. Seems to be all seating is on the 2nd floor. But again. Tons of seating available and they do take reservations. Customer service is subpar. It needs some work. Definitely not Disney attitude at all. The food selection is not that great either. I got the pork nachos which you can sub for chicken for $6 more. The pork nachos were yummy! And the everyone liked the chicken ones too. Some people got the burgers which they enjoyed. Happy I tried it out. Not sure I would go again but i do recommend to my fellow peeps if they are in the area just to check it out!

Visited on my birthday after doing some shopping at Downtown Disney. It is my first time visit and I'm glad that I give it a try. There wasn't a line at all around 7:30pm and I was seated in 10minutes. On the way upstairs, you can learn the history of the restaurant through the wall art. The restaurant is pretty big, clean and chic. The big gold fish mural is definitely the highlight of the restaurant. The bar area seems cool. I asked the server to recommend their popular dish because I had a hard time deciding. Since I don't drink alcohol and they are known for their beers, I decided to go with their fish & chips. The breading was very light and crispy and the fish was tender and a good portion. I would recommend to everybody. Thank you, Arian!

Located in Downtown Disney. Pleasantly surprised with quick seating at a high top upstairs on a Friday night. Order using a QR code. The Fish and Chips were delicious. The beer was fabulous. Despite ordering on our own through the QR code, we had fabulous and attentive service.

[Quick update] It's been a while since my last review, and I've dined at BP a few times. The most recent visit was with a big party of 15 (with three babies). We walked around DTD, asking other restaurants if they could accommodate our big group. BP was the only one that could have us without a long wait. (maybe we lucked out). Love the chill and lively vibe of this place. Food highlights: - Bavarian Pretzel Sticks - we ordered three to share among the group. Very good. - Smash Burgers - most of us ordered the burgers, but I changed out the fries for a salad. Overall, it is a delicious entrée and a perfect amount for me. Drinks: - BP has a great selection of beers, drinks, and cocktails. I chose the Longfin Lager, a light, refreshing brew. Our server, Lana F, was excellent. She was friendly and attentive and provided a stress-free dining experience. Another gentleman closed out our lunch, and he was great as well. Drinks and food arrived in good time, and everyone in our party seemed to enjoy everything. I'll be back to enjoy more food and brews.

This place is the hidden gem, especially when it's so hard to find seating at the bigger restaurants. Food was good, beer was good. Service was good, I recommend it!

I usually give the benefit of the doubt but this happened on two consecutive visits. Ordering was convenient. Food came fast. Food was good. But you'll never get a refill. We finished our entire meal without a single member of the staff offering to refill our drinks. I'd be ok if they were busy, but there were a few guys hanging around the bar doing nothing. Worst part? Because you order on your phone, you pay ahead. And I left a big tip.

Great variety of beers to choose from, they a tap for everyone's taste! We sat on the rooftop and it's so peaceful on a warm day. It feels like a little hidden tree house with a bar haha The service is given through placing the order in the QR code and creating your own tab online where you can close out whenever you're ready. This process could be seen as convenient or not based on the clientele but we found it to be useful since we just wanted to stop for a quick beer, no need to wait!

Ballast Point offers powerful beers, great music, excellent service, and good vibes. Josh, Baker, Austin, and Erlinda are particularly excellent bartenders. The Sculpin IPA is great--and the burgers are absolutely incredible. It's located in an excellent spot at Downtown Disney, also. Very close to monorail entrance back into the Magic Kingdom. Check it out!

Heard a lot of good things and honestly wasn't to impressed. We waited for 5 minutes which was awesome and the service was really good! The reason I'm giving such a low star rating is because of the food. The food was fresh and came out in a good time but it was so bland. Even the kids meal was pretty bad... We did order their flight of beers and honestly that was really good. Definitely see this as a place to get some drinks and maybe an app but the entrees, never again.

Honestly really solid restaurant in Downtown Disney. We came on a Sunday, around 5pm, we were expecting to wait a long time but we literally only waited like 5 minutes so that was already a plus. For drinks we ordered the slush of the day, blueberry lemonade cider and the horchata cocktail. All of them were amazing, would recommend them all. To eat we had the Nashville hot wings to start, the rub on them were really good and they had a lot of meat on them. Main entrees we had the burger and the chicken sandwich. Both were real flavorful and the fries were perfectly cooked. The service was both friendly and quick. The vibes were very modern, and the big windows made the views that much better. We'll be back for sure!

Walking around downtown Disney trying to find somewhere to eat around 9:20pm and we realized they had a ballast point (one of the few places open later). We were seated immediately as we didn't have a preference for seating. We ordered the carne asada nachos and substituted the nacho chips for fries and a cheeseburger. The carne asada fries are definitely meant to be shared between 2-3 people. The prices are reasonable based on the portions you are getting. Everything tasted good and we didn't have to wait long for our food to come out. They had music playing in the background at just the right volume to enjoy it and hear the people next to you. Everyone was really friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back.

Cute place! I love the beer taps along the wall as you walk upstairs. There's a nice view of you sit outside. The service is not even available. It's so hard to get a question answered with no server. I also think it's ridiculous to assume everyone has a smart phone and QR code capability. The lack of menus makes ordering take longer and lack of servers isn't ideal for those visiting for the first time. My food was delicious. I ordered some type honey sandwich (forget the name) with fries and a cider. My friend ordered the salmon and sculpin, she loved it.

Came in for a quick bite, it wasn't busy so we got seated right away. They had QR code menus. The waiter was helpful and helped us choose some beers they had. Had wings and the Mexican lager. Ambiance is great. Downtown Disney can't beat that. And great selections of beers

Ballast Point is a great spot to slow down from the bustle of Disney and catch your breath. The atmosphere is chill with a good soundtrack and they have an extensive beer menu (way longer than the food menu but no complaints). Our server, Mike, was helpful and knowledgeable on the menu options and I ultimately landed on the Carne Asada Flatbread Pizza. A seasonal treat with enough spice and flavor to make it worth making a trip this spooky season.

Walking though the stores I needed a beer and this place delivered. Tons of options, lots of flavors, many styles - great for beer. The nachos were ok (from Texas so there's a high bar to hurdle). The fries I stole from my kids were really good. Ordering was through a QR code but the cell signal was really spotty so it became difficult. The service was pretty bad, even though we were there at 4 and there was only one or two other tables. Overall I'd ho back.

Delicious food and service! I was a little worried about the wait being long considering the location but service was fast and friendly! I got the poke bowl which was delicious, along with the guava margarita on tap!

Enjoyed lunch and catching up with a friend. We started with pulled pork nachos, which had plenty of meat and cheese for the amount of chips. Then had the poke bowl for entree, which had tuna, avocado, edamame, seaweed, carrots, & rice. There is quite a bit of tuna and with everything else, filled me up - $21. You have a nice view of Downtown Disney and we had wonderful service. Did not wait long to be sat.

So this is one of my secret not so secret spots I love to come to. They have great service, friendly staff that's soooo knowledgeable about their beers, but I'm already fan but nice to chat about the brews and their profiles. The service is sooo quick around the bar, love how I get the quick h20 right when we plop down, we ordered a few items, mussels, Brussels sprouts with pancetta, and an asada flat bread with a sauce that's killer did I mention their beer is nice and frosty cold with frost glasses. The vibe of the place is nice and up beat but not overly loud with drinks but happy people enjoying food and drinks. I got my usual victory at sea coffee vanilla porter which is nice creamy and smooth (nitro injected) I'd come here all day if I can for the food, and nice people

I came here with a friend for her birthday, and overall I had a decent time. Our server, Marvin, was extremely friendly and very helpful. He was very knowledgeable about the menu and gave us recommendations. I liked the selection of drinks available and I also remember really liking the french fries. They were very crispy and delicious with the ranch and ketchup. The wings were okay. I would pass on these.

After a long morning at Disneyland, we decided check out ballast point in downtown Disney for some lunch. We were able to walk in, with no reservations. There is an outside patio and indoor seating. We ordered the pineapple sculpin IPA and the grapefruit IPA. Both drinks were so refreshing! We shared the Baja style fish tacos and the shrimp aguachile. The Baja style fish tacos came with 2 tacos, chips and salsa. The fried fish had a light batter, wasn't too greasy, and was a large portion! The shrimp aguachile was very light, refreshing, and citrusy. It came with shrimp, cilantro, cucumber, avocado and chips.

My partner and I decided to come here in the hopes that the food would be better priced and that it would be better than what's served inside the theme park. It was a plus that we got seated quickly in the patio. However, the food was just not it especially for what you paid for. First of all, the mussels were salty because of the excessive amount of pancetta and the broth was barely existent. The garlic bread was so rough, it was in edible. The chicken wings weren't crispy at all and needed to be cooked longer. The fish taco lacked flavor and that tortilla was not good. It was a huge miss and wouldn't come back. Would recommend people to stay away.

Ballast Point at Downtown Disney is a great spot to get a beer, food, and is family friendly. The top patio is awesome for people watching. Beer and food are overpriced, but to be expected for anything at DD. I like that there were QR codes on the table, which meant beer came out lightning fast. 3 beers and fish and chips totaled around $75.

Ballast Point was an early San Diego brewery that sold for a billion dollars in 2015 and is now worth a fraction of that value less than a decade later. It's no longer a cool independent brewery, but you can get the beer at a typical grocery store, and apparently also in Downtown Disney, where Ballast Point has a brewery and restaurant. This is, in my opinion, not a bad result. The beer is good, and I'm always happy to visit a brewery with a kids' menu. We went for lunch on our way out of Disneyland last month. I kind of hate Downtown Disney--they make you park really far, then go through security, then pay $15 for parking no matter how much you spend at the shops and restaurants--but had an otherwise pleasant experience at Ballast Point. We put our name down while we did some souvenir shopping at World of Disney, and it wasn't long before a table opened up on the second floor. The staff was friendly, and they accommodated our giant stroller so that we didn't have to wake our sleeping baby. The space was vibrant and comfortable, and service was great, attentive and prompt. My husband and I enjoyed an Aloha Sculpin IPA and a Grunion American Pale Ale, both beers you can get at a grocery store, but refreshing and tasty and nice to get on tap. There was a decent menu of California brewery food: nachos and pretzels, salads and sandwiches, and entrées like tacos and fish and chips. I had a poke bowl, which was pretty good, with marinated ahi, sushi rice, edamame, carrot, cucumber, avocado, wakame salad, sriracha aioli, unagi sauce, and nori rice strips. The kids menu was good for both my picky one and my carnivore. They got mac n' cheese and crispy chicken fingers with fries, milk, and crispy marshmallow rice treats. I have no particular desire to go to Downtown Disney again, but if we have to, we'll at least get lunch at Ballast Point. It's a pleasant sit-down spot with solid food and drink, not the easiest thing to come by in the kingdom of the mouse.

Great atmosphere, servers are awesome. Long wait time for a table but if you want to sit out in the top patio, it's first come first serve, which I prefer because it's a great view of the downtown Disney. Menu is not huge and nothing special or different, but food was great. Do wish they had more vegetarian choices. My husband is vegetarian and had to order the kids Mac-n-cheese and the cheese flatbread. A little disappointed they're aren't more IPA's. It was out first time here and thought the choices would be bigger. And I'm not a beer person, prefer the cocktails but the watermelon beer was amazing. Tasted like a watermelon jolly rancher. Good news, if you love it you can buy a six pack from their shop. We had a great night I must warn you that it is very pricey. There were 6 of us and we spent $500!

We enjoy coming here as a family after a day at Disney. There is always a wait, but we head right in up to the outdoor patio bar. It's open seating and it's not too full, sometimes. The kids meals are great, especially the Mac and cheese. The rice krispy dessert is always a hit with the kids.

Not impressed. The hostess was so rude, she put our name down wrong so when we walked in with our text our table was ready she couldn't find us and told us it was cause we gave a different name than what we were telling her. Finally found us after we kept telling her to look up the phone number. It was under a name that no one in our party had. This was not a good way to start the experience. Food was ok. Service was slow. Overall I would never go back to this location. For what we paid and what we experienced we would go anywhere else but here. Do not waste your money, there are lots of other food locations in the area.

Good beer, not bad food and pretty helpful staff. The environment/design of inside isn't my favorite of the Ballast Points I been to. They have a wide variety of beer selection like most locations. The food quality is good- the prices are more than it should be but it is downtown Disney, if you are hungry they will have decent food compared to other breweries. They do validate parking which is good- seating can be tough so be prepared! For food choices this currently is probably one of the better options in downtown Disney as of now.

I was stuck on giving two or three stars and decided to round up based on the comfortable restaurant interior. Drinks menu is solid for drinkers and a bit disappointing for other drinks. For example, many (or all?) of the mixed drinks are premade. Food choices are a bit lackluster and if you're gluten free, the choices are truly abysmal - you can get a burger (but no fries because they are battered), a flat bread (which we'll come back to), or a house salad. The end. Nothing else on the menu can be made gluten free. The flat bread is a huge waste of money; there's an up charge for gf crust so the price ends up being over $25. The flatbread itself is sad, a handful of small pepperoni with cheap cheese. Think Little Caesar's, then look at the price and be aghast. It's an odd choice to have so few gf options (and are we really counting a house salad?) when many menu items could easily be made without it and often are at restaurants. So maybe a nice spot for a drink, but I would eat elsewhere.
