A fun, retro-style diner near Epcot with great burgers, sandwiches, and over-the-top ice cream treats. I had the French Dip — delicious! Don’t miss the famous Kitchen Sink Sundae — it’s huge and perfect for sharing. Small space, so reservations help, but they also have a walk-up window. Great late-night stop with tons of Disney charm!

We visited the Beaches and Cream Soda Shop for ice cream and to celebrate a special occasion. It was great. The ice cream menu was creative and had many tempting choices. While we were eating our ice cream, there were several occasions when the lights dimmed, fanfare erupted and a waiter would make an announcement that someone ordered a "Kitchen Sink", which is featured on the menu. It wasn't something we ordered since we were a party of two. But all the large groups that got a Kitchen Sink seemed to enjoy the experience. We enjoyed the quality ice cream and toppings that Beaches and Cream serves up. Next time, we need to bring a few more family members with us and try a Kitchen Sink of our own.

More than just a Soda Shop! Fun traditional diner food / fare as well as some mighty good ice cream. Go for the cookies and cream with whatever you choose. Must try the Kitchen Sink or the mini version if you don’t have at least 4 mouths to feed. Fun and tasty @ the Beach Club Resort. :)

We had the plant-based Impossible Burger at Beaches & Cream — one with tots, one with fries. The burger itself was fine, but the multigrain bun, caramelized onion jam, and vegan mayo were nice touches. Both the tots and fries were crispy and tasty. Dessert was a letdown: the Cookie Fries were cold, tasted like Bear Paws, and the dipping sauces felt cheap and artificial. Service was friendly and the atmosphere lively, though the spectacle around the ‘Kitchen Sink’ dessert highlights some concerning food waste.

This place has a cute vibe as a 1950s soda shop. Restaurant is not that big or spacious but that didn’t really bother us. Grilled cheese and tomato soup were yummy. Patty melt was a little dry. Chili cheese tots were delicious! Fair warning though they come with lots of sour cream Would like to try the steak fries. My husband really enjoyed the brownie sundae. More of a cake brownie than fudgy. The mint chocolate chunk ice cream was also particularly good! I wouldn’t pick this place over others at Disney but for basic food that’s nearby to your resort it fits the bill.

My wife, two children, and my nephew ordered dessert at Beaches & Cream Soda Shop on Wednesday, April 30, 2025. To be honest, I was a little underwhelmed. My wife and I split the Fudge Mud Slide. The ice cream itself was decent but the “gooey, chewy” brownie was anything but. It didn’t have much flavor and definitely didn’t taste fresh. Also, absolutely nothing gooey about it. Sadly, it wasn’t even warm. Not enough hot fudge nor whipped cream and the “chocolate sandwich cookies” are definitely a far cry from Oreos. It was a large dessert and the $13.50 price tag was probably to be expected. But to be completely honest, I thought the milkshakes were even more disappointing. They didn’t resemble milkshakes really at all, they were more just soft ice cream. And the taste was off. Two of the kids got the cookies and cream shakes and my son ordered the strawberry shake. I tasted them both and was hoping for something rich, thick, and refreshing. They were instead watered down, warm, and slightly disappointing. I apologize for the lackluster review. We do have a few more nights at the Yacht Club so perhaps we will give Beaches & Cream a second chance because you can’t beat the location but I will be hoping for something a little better.

Been there twice and obviously they are known for their ice cream, but first time I had the impossible burger and places like this at Disney have become the standard on how to measure a place for a good impossible burger. This time I tried the grilled cheese and when I asked our server if the tomato soup is good enough or if i should substitute it with fries, he went and brought some for me to try. Great service, great food (not many options if you come with kids, but the ice cream after will be good enough reason for them to be satisfied with the choices).

The food is lackluster but the ice cream is delicious. We had the grilled cheese and tomato soup which was nothing special and very heavy. We like impossible burgers but this one was mushy even though we asked to have it well done. The bun was heavy and not toasted. The service was great. The atmosphere is fun but very loud.

Beaches & Cream - Disney's Sweetest Hidden Gem Whether we're wrapping up a magical EPCOT day or making a special stop with family in town, Beaches & Cream is one of our top go-to restaurants -- every time. Tucked away at Disney's Beach Club Resort right next to the sandy-bottom pool and that legendary lazy river, this place is pure old-school diner meets ice cream parlor meets sugar-fueled happiness. We stopped in today for a mid-EPCOT break, and it delivered as always. The Food Let's start with the menu: classic, comforting, and done right. Burgers, fries, onion rings -- the whole gang's here. But let me give a special shoutout to one of our forever favorites: the Reuben sandwich. It's crispy, flavorful, and stacked just right. Definitely a must-order if you're looking for something savory before diving into dessert. The Ice Cream This is what Beaches & Cream is known for -- and they don't mess around. Their signature sundaes are larger than life, and every one of them is a crowd-pleaser. But the true showstopper? The Kitchen Sink. Feeds four. Comes in a literal sink. And yes -- it includes an entire can of whipped cream. You heard that right. One. Whole. Can. It's wild. It's messy. It's legendary. You hear the bells ring when someone orders it, and everyone in the room turns to watch the magic happen. Grab & Go Window Don't have time to sit? No problem. They've got a walk-up ice cream to-go window so you can snag a cone or a cup of something cold before heading back to the parks or the pool. Super convenient and a fun treat when you're on the move. ‍‍ Family Vibes Are Strong Here This spot is great for all ages -- whether you're doing a full meal, swinging by for dessert, or just grabbing a scoop after a swim. It's casual, fun, and very Disney. We always end up laughing, sharing bites, and sneaking just one more spoonful from someone else's sundae. It's part of the experience. Gregory's Tip: Make a reservation in advance -- this place fills up fast, especially during peak travel weeks. And if you're EPCOT-hopping like we were today, it's a quick and easy walk from the International Gateway entrance between the UK and France. Beaches & Cream is Disney comfort food and classic ice cream parlor nostalgia all rolled into one. Whether you're chasing down the Kitchen Sink or just treating yourself to a quick cone by the pool, this place will leave you full, happy, and already planning your next visit. Grab a spoon and dig in -- you won't regret it.

We visited Beaches & Cream on our most recent visit to Disney this past July. I haven't been to B&C since the renovation and it's nice. Definitely bigger, though the smaller restaurant had a nice charm to it, I understand the need to expand for sure. We had made reservations WAY in advance, as we had a large group of 9. When we arrived we weren't all together so we had to wait around until everyone was there (I know a lot of places do this) but it took a little extra time. We also did not account for my eight month old niece as she was sitting on my SiL lap and that really messed things up. They have a strict fire code and they need to account for everyone. Sorry for that mess up B&C! The food here is typical soda shop type food. From mac and cheese, to grilled cheese and tomato soup, to a burger patty melt, all were delicious and filling. My kids loved the tater tot sides (as did I) and since we were at a soda shop I ordered a vanilla coke that hit the spot on an extremely warm Florida day. Since there were 9 of us in our party we had to order the kitchen sink. We ordered the chocolate lover's version. The presentation is great, and the way they bring it to the table, which includes audience participation (A WHOLE CAN?!) is just so much fun. The 9 of us EASILY downed the kitchen sink, it was so delicious, and a fun way to end our meal.

Beaches and Cream is your classic ice cream shop located at Disney's Beach Club resort. It is not near the main lobby but more off to the side. It does face the pool which is nice. I would recommend making a reservation especially if you have a larger group. They do offer walk up's but I have never had good luck with walk ups here even though there are empty seats. They last time we tried for a group of 3 adults and 2 kids, they told us walk ups always sit at the bar and they wont sit a group of 5 at the bar. Very nice way to say no chance for us. They serve ice cream but also food. If you are not staying at the resort, you can park here IF you have a reservation. You can also walk here from EPCOT, take a bus from Disney Springs or one of the parks, take the boat from Studios, EPCOT or a few resorts or be dropped off. There are tons of ways to get here. This is home to the kitchen sink, which is literally a kitchen sink: many scoops of Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry, Cookies 'n Cream, and Mint Chocolate Chip topped with, Hot Fudge, Peanut Butter, SNICKERS pieces, Fresh-baked Brownie, and smothered in every additional topping we have. Also available Chocolate Lovers or Neapolitan. They also add a whole can of whip cream. It says serves 4 and is $39 but honestly this would feed 6-8 people. It is so large! They also have a walk up window where you can get ice cream to go. I believe you can order food to go, but you cannot order the kitchen sink to go. We have done both. Recently my husband and I had dinner here. We decided to share since we were going to a few places at the Yacht and Beach club. Sort of like a stroll. I started with a root beer float with vanilla vodka. Yes they do have adult drinks as well. It was fantastic. Such a classic root beer float, just like when you were a child. My husband ordered a beer. We decided to share the French Dip Sandwich: Toasted French Roll served with Thinly Sliced Roast Beef, Swiss, and Au Jus topped with Crispy-fried Onions. We upgraded our side to the loaded Potato Tots, which had Cheese Sauce, Bacon, Red Onions, and Garlic-Peppercorn Ranch, but left the onions on the side for my husband. This was a great sandwich! We both really really enjoyed this tremendously. The beef was thin, it was hot, and they gave us two bowls of the au jus since we were sharing. Fantastic meal. The tots were covered in cheese and bacon, it was really really good. I would definitely order this again. And to be honest, we shared this, and I was full. We had so many other drinks and appetizers to order on our crawl but this started me off really full! We did not get ice cream but we have also visited the to-go window and gotten ice cream. Both were very good. My only issue is they do have tables and seats if you are getting it to go, but there were tons of bees that kept swarming us. It would be nice if Disney could help with that situation as I am allergic and we had to leave. I think overall this is a great stop for ice cream but also for food. It is more suited to kids with their choices but we loved our food. It is not overly expensive so if you are on a budget, this is also a great place to go. We love it here and will definitely be back. My only issue is the seating, don't have a walk up list with tons of empty tables and then tell us they cant take our walk up. It can be challenging to get a reservation but they are on the smaller side. I would definitely recommend this spot.

This spot is located by the pool between the Yacht and Beach Club Resort. It seemed like a very popular spot so I wanted to check it out. The wait wasn't too bad but I can see it getting crowded during peak hours such as after dinner. I came here for lunch and tried their French Dip and Ruben sandwich. The French Dip sandwich itself was okay, but the broth tasted too diluted or unflavored. As for the Ruben, it was a bit too greasy/oily than I would have liked. The breading for both sandwich was really good though. This spot seems to be very popular for ice cream so I came back another night to get their coke float. I really enjoyed it~ The staff was really friendly and kind.

So this was our first time at Beaches and Cream Soda Shop at the Disney Beach Club. Unfortunately it will be our last time too. We have dined at various places at Walt Disney World and usually both the food and service are amazing. Both though were lacking here. We had the impossible burger with a side of watermelon. Our burgers were barely cooked and were luke warm. I couldn't even eat most of the burger. I mentioned it to the waiter and showed him how undercooked it was and he just shrugged his shoulders. The best part of the meal was the refreshing watermelon pieces. Their ice cream scoops are double scoops so we asked if we could have different flavors and put one in a cone and one in a dish. Two scoops for one of us was just too much. We were told yes to the different flavors but no to the scoops being separated. I was shocked! Yes, we could have just shared the two scoops but one of us wanted a sugar cone and the other wanted the scoop in a bowl. In regard to service, it was lack luster and definitely not Disney standards that I am use to receiving. The waiter didn't even offer us water to go cups and usually they would at other Disney restaurants. I sure hope this is not how Disney operates now because if so what has happened to the Magic?

Located inside Disney's Beach Club Resort, this diner is near Disney's Boardwalk and also close to the rear entrance/exit of EPCOT. It's a small place that gets very busy so reservations are recommended. I came alone as a walk-in and was offered a stool at the counter, where I was seated almost immediately. My counter seat faced the grill so I had a firsthand look at a very clean and impressively managed kitchen. My server was the delightfully friendly Angie who recommended the Cheddar Bacon Ranch Chicken Sandwich. I ordered tots as a side and also a root beer to drink. The tots were perfect and the sandwich, with delicious tomato, cheese, lettuce, bacon, and sauteed onions was tasty except... The texture of the chicken breast was off-putting to me; kind of rubbery and chewy. My guess is it was either overcooked or a case of "woody" chicken (where chickens are fed too quickly to plump them up, causing that rubbery texture...I've encountered this a few times with store-bought chicken breasts). The chicken tasted good, it was just the texture. To reward myself for cleaning my plate I decided to get an ice cream sundae. This place is known for spectacular ice cream desserts. Looking over the long list of ice cream treats, I chose a Bailey's Sundae from the "adult" column. Scoops of coffee ice cream with Bailey's Irish Cream Liqueur are covered with hot fudge, a chocolate brownie, chocolate sauce, whipped cream, and of course a cherry on top. It was fantastic. Even after finishing I restrained myself from licking the glass. This is a fun, noisy, casual place that both kids and adults will enjoy.

I do love Beaches and cream as a whole, but unfortunately there isn't many plant based options especially if you don't want to have an impossible burger. That being said they do have fries and tater tots that are plant based, but do use a shared fryer. They also have two different types of dairy free ice cream soy based tofutti and a coconut based option as well. I love the tofutii and they offer it in chocolate or vanilla. They also have cookie sticks that are hard chocolate chip cookies with sauces for dipping as a vegan option. My mom loves the grilled ham and cheese sandwich and subs the tomato soup(which has chicken stock in it for anyone wondering) for onion rings. If you come with a group check out the kitchen sink it is such a fun option that they have here. The staff is usually pretty great here, but Brian is great and always so lovely to us.

I've been to Beaches and Cream two times and both were amazing experiences. The atmosphere along with the service is always fun and so welcoming. I thought the kitchen sink would just be fun stunt food but it was actually so good, with the brownies the cake Oreos and more. The fudge mudslide was also sooo good and great to share! (Add caramel on top)!!

We had a great time at Beaches & Cream! The atmosphere is amazing and the dining room is super clean. Our server, Brian was awesome and very efficient! I ordered the loaded tots and they were pretty good! The toppings are pretty heavy on these so I'd probably go lighter on the cheese next time. My friend got the French dip and really loved it! For dessert we got the Minnie Strawberry Milkshake and the Brownie Sundae with Peanut Butter sauce. Both were good but the ice cream isn't super special. It's more about the presentation with the desserts. I've had the No Way Jose in the past and even though I love chocolate and PB, I felt like it was missing any kind of crunch. Overall, this is a super fun place to visit. Highly recommend making reservations as the dining room is not very big!

We're back. I'm having the Reuben again on the Grilled Cheese bread since I'm not a rye bread fan. (But I do like rye whiskey- go figure.) Mike quite enjoyed the Grilled Cheese, add ham, with Tomato Bisque. And he topped it off with his favorite dessert - a Fudge Mudslide. We definitely like the current offerings at Beaches & Cream and will be back!

Thanks to my coworker for this recommendation, and thanks to the Disney skyliner and lay out that allowed us to dine here, even though we weren't spending the day at the park. First things, first. Dessert! If your party isn't ordering the kitchen sink sundae, I hope you get to witness another table do so! This dessert made my 3rd grader's essay in class, LOL. The lights go dim, sirens sound, and the waitstaff will give a glorious schpiel about all the components of the sundae before it's served. It's several scoops of ice cream, whipped cream, and all the toppings. We each ordered our own individual sundaes after our meal. The kids' Mickey sundaes were a fan favorite, with Oreo halves making up the ears. They get to choose the ice cream flavor too (chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, cookies n cream, butter pecan, coffee, etc). I built my own 1 scoop sundae with 3 toppings, which ended up costing more than the default 2 scoop sundae bc each topping is an extra $1. Oops. I'll do the math next time, but I was trying to practice some restraint for my cholesterol and dessert intake. The coffee ice cream was tasty. I appreciated the kids' menu had fruit options (grapes, watermelon) on the side. I thoroughly enjoyed my cheeseburger and fries. Still one of my all time favorite entrees! This old timey feelin' soda shop was a memorable meal. Highly recommend! Note: the bathrooms are outside the restaurant and shared with the pool guests.

In the Florida heat, ice cream is the way to go. We tried to do a walk-up but the wait was going to be about an hour. We opted to get ice cream from the to-go window. What a great option to have! At the time we got ice cream, we were the only people there. All the options were delicious! We ended up ordering a few ice cream sandwiches and some adult drinks. We got: an ice cream sandwich with coffee ice cream, smore's shake, and a stout float. The star of the show was the coffee ice cream! So smooth, delicious coffee flavor, and not too sweet! The cookies were just fine, nothing special. The smore's shake was good, but it was very sweet and a bit heavy. It is definitely a shake that needs to be shared. If you are a guinness fan, you will enjoy the stout shake! If I were to come back, I think I'd prefer to just order scoops of ice cream as the ice cream is delicious on its own.

This was a reservation I was looking forward to at our hotel. Unfortunately there wasn't anything "special" about the hype. Decent burgers. Grilled cheese was a grilled cheese. Small cup of soup. Service was ok. Nothing special. Very loud - hard to have a conversation. Milkshakes were definitely a redeeming quality.

A wonderful little shop along the Boardwalk at Disney with delicious ice cream sundaes. Their food isn't bad with burgers, grilled cheese and chili, tots - standard but consistent soda fountain American fare. But the real star is the No Way Jose. Peanut butter and chocolate ice cream. We ordered the kitchen sink, a massive ice cream sundae with blondies, brownies, multiple flavors of ice cream, toppings and cherries. It is $38 and serves four. While the ice cream is good, brownies solid, a whole can of whipped cream is a bit much. It is a fun thing to order because they turn the lights down, and make a huge deal out of it when someone orders it. Our server "Zach" was awesome! Friendly and attentive. a great place for birthdays and fun for the whole family.

Beaches and Cream is one of my favorite dining experiences on Disney property! One of the best things they have is a walk up window. You can still get ice cream even if you're not dining in. Every time I visit the Boardwalk, I stop by to get my favorite ice cream creation on Disney property: the No Way Jose sundae. It's a good value for the price and it's absolutely delicious. It's chocolate and vanilla ice cream topped with hot fudge, peanut butter, whipped cream, chocolate chips, peanuts butter chips, and a cherry on top. It's easy to carry and share. Service is fast and the soda shop theme is so cute. It's definitely a magical experience!

Beaches and Cream Soda Shop is located at Disney's Beach Club Resort. This restaurant has limited seating so reservations are hard to get and are highly recommended. I enjoy the food here but we mainly go for their amazing desserts. The ambiance is a diner feel with cute pictures aligning the walls. Service is always good and everyone is friendly. For entrees we ordered the French Dip Sandwich and the Cheddar-Bacon-Ranch Chicken Sandwich. The French Dip Sandwich is my favorite to get here. The beef is tender, the fried onions add a nice crunch to every bite and the au jus makes it juicy and so flavorful. For a side I always have to get the loaded potato tots. Normally the regular potato tots come as a side but you can ask to upgrade it to the loaded potato tots. It's definitely worth the upgrade! The Cheddar-Bacon-Ranch Chicken Sandwich is also another great item on the menu. The chicken was cooked perfectly, the bacon was crunchy and the ranch added great flavor. My kids enjoyed the kid's Macaroni and Cheese with goldfish added to the top. The desserts are the highlight of the meal. Usually we get the Kitchen Sink but this time we decided to try out their other desserts. No matter what dessert you order you won't be disappointed. All their desserts are delicious, rich and there is an abundance of it not matter which one you order.

Absolutely love this place. Had a roommate work here during my College program so I've been here a few times over the years. Always has been a favorite. I do miss the old decor before they remodeled though. It's less fun and Eisner era Disney that was so charming and kitschy. Got a quick same day late Friday night reservation for two last week on our trip. (Around 9:30pm) Split the Rubin sandwich with tots and it was really good. For me the key to a good Rubin is the bread not getting soggy at all and this was crispy and flavorful from the time it reached the table to the last bite. Our server was nice and attentive. I ended up cast complementing her at the end of the night. I would definitely order it again. We also split the brownie Sunday (not sure if the real name) and added caramel. SO GOOD. Humongous. We didn't finish it between the two of us. Loved the Mickey ears too.

We arrived at the Boardwalk hotel later on our first night, then walked a quarter of the way around the lake to the next door hotel to visit this place. Although it wasn't busy inside and wouldn't close for another hour, they would only let you with a reservation, which we did not have. However, there is a window service available so we ordered from there. I had the Stout Float, which consisted of soft serve ice cream, chocolate syrup, and a full can of Guinness beer. It was so incredibly good and the ice cream blended perfectly with the beer. Was it worth $14.25, though? My wife had a Pumpkin Pie shake, which looked like one of those giant crazy shakes you see from The Yard and included a whole piece of pumpkin pie on top. It was $15.50 and messy!

One of my favorite ice cream spots on property. I have enjoyed many meals and fancy shakes in their restaurant space over the years. Recently made a stop at their to-go window and, honestly, it was so convenient to get some ice cream quickly without the whole process of sitting down in the restaurant. There are even tables and chairs nearby for guests to enjoy their treats from the to-go window if they don't want to take it on the run. Service has always been efficient and friendly during each of my visits both inside and outside. This goes without saying, but the ice cream, especially their shakes are delicious. The perfect refresher to a hot Florida day. Beaches & Cream Soda Shop is located at Disney's Beach Club Resort. A park ticket is not needed to dine here. You can access them through visiting the Beach Club Resort or from exiting Epcot through International Gateway if you're at the park during the day. Unless you're going after their infamous Kitchen Sink or one of their beautifully crafted shakes, you don't need to make a special trip out to Beaches & Cream for a scoop of ice cream. However, if you're already at Epcot or staying at one of the Epcot resorts, this is definitely a fantastic spot for a treat!

More like 2.5 stars overall. I had a reservation for 6 people during a late dinner time. The food menu here is limited with greasy options and no healthy/better alternatives. I ordered the beaches & cream grilled cheese with less cheese. The grilled cheese still came pretty cheesy and I'm glad I asked for less nonetheless. The tomato soup that came with it was very thick. The rest of my group ordered a variety of things and seemed to like their meal. My order was just ok. I had the brownie a la mode for dessert. The brownie tasted like a dry microwave brownie and the ice cream came soft and easily melted. I highly recommend sharing desserts since the portions are massive. Food and dessert both took a very long time to come, but service was friendly in between.

We enjoyed our time here. The food was good but the star of the show was the milkshake. You should definitely stop by for a delicious ice cream treat.

Our first time eating at Beaches & Cream and we loved it - we'd definitely go back! Service was great, vibes are fun & diner-like, and the menu has something for everyone in the fam. We had the French dip and patty melt - wow. So, so good! Unreal shakes and sundaes. My partner got the boozy baileys sundae and loved it; I got a cherry coke because, why not -- we're on vacation! Highly recommend. We will be back!

Absolutely horrible and extremely underwhelming food-wise. The kids' turkey sandwich was about 2 slices of cold cut turkey between us toasted burger buns (no sauce, seasoning, cheese, or vegetables). The kids' hot dog was a store-bought hot dog in a bun... nothing else. The fries were the best thing about the kids' meal. The restaurant was kind of messy. The adult Reubens were good. They were definitely not worth their price. We were so disappointed by the kids' sundaes that we didn't order anything else. The kids' sundaes were cheap vanilla ice cream with one maraschino cherry, two chocolate chips, and two Oreos, creating a "Mickey Mouse." Our server was good, always keeping our water cups full. I do NOT recommend this restaurant.

Just a typical ice cream parlor. You're paying Disney prices for Edy's ice cream. That being said, it's the ambience that makes this place stand out. Usually, you have an interactive experience, especially when someone orders the kitchen sink. Otherwise it's just a burgers and milkshakes place. None of the food really stands out as a "must try here". So if you're looking for somewhere fun to take the kids for some ice cream and burgers, this is your spot.

We had the latest reservation of the night with it being at 10:45pm. We zoomed over from Hollywood Studios and made it just in time. The hostess sat us down and dropped off menus. Our server came over quickly and gave us time to decide on what we wanted. Our orders were: One grilled cheese with tomato soup and an Oreo shake One Rueben sandwich with a sundae One loaded tator tots One roast beef sandwich with an Oreo shake One patty melt with a coke The food was delicious! Everything was made fresh and tasted really good. I had the grilled cheese with the tomato soup and the grilled cheese was cheesily good! The tomato soup has room for improvement as it did not have much flavor. The patty melt and Ruben were the next two best tasting entrees ever. The french fries were also really good. They were big, hot, and crispy. The Oreo shakes and sundae were more then perfect! Both are huge and more then enough to split with someone else! Service was great and our server was in a good mood. He was very friendly, fast, and attentive! The inside is super cute with a vintage diner vibe. There is also cute pictures of Mikey and friends on the wall! Definitely check this place out! They do also have a window up front for quicker service if you are not wanting to dine in.

You definitely need to make a reservation to eat here. They will take walk ups for the counter last minute, okay for a small party of 2. Wanted to go here for a French Dip, had that and can't saw it was impressive, lacked flavor with the beef and au jus. Salt and Pepper didn't add much either. Had tater tots and hubby had French fries. Nothing spectacular, they were exactly that. Waitress was nice and attentive, but French Dip was too plain. Have had way better. Didn't have room for dessert. Maybe try something else if we were to go here again.

There was no apparent waffle cone smell you typically expect going to an icecream shop. The selection is very basic. Staff is nice, but the place is not worth it. Better off going elsewhere for icecream. I got the smores shake and it didn't taste like much. No apparent marshmallow flavor and barely any hot fudge taste. Sad waste of $16 dollars. I would expect some marshmallow on top.

I have gone to Beaches and Cream 4-5 times now and every time I have gone it's been spectacular. This past time I went was a time to remember. For my meal I got the French Dip and it was the best one I have ever had. For dessert I got the brownie sundae with peanut butter and chocolate syrup and it ended my visit on a great note. The service was phenomenal and the ambiance is a beach vibe and up beat.

I first visited Beaches & Cream approximately 25 years ago when I was a child. I wanted but didn't get to order the Kitchen Sink Ice Cream. Last week I finally got that Kitchen Sink. It is 8 scoops of ice cream covered by all of the toppings they serve and a whole can of whipped cream. Yes, A WHOLE CAN! The Kitchen Sink feeds 4 people, or so says the menu. More like 40. Yes, this would have been a good option for Christ to have served to the masses. The four of us probably got approximately halfway through before we gave up. I think it was $38... well worth it. We also had white wine, which I wouldn't have been allowed to drink 25 years ago either. We didn't have a reservation on Monday night and we had to sit at the bar, but they were able to seat us right away. If you want a table, make a reservation.

Last year, my husband and I went to dine at Cape May Cafe at Beach Club where right next to Yacht Club Resort. Two resorts have similar exteriors but different interior styles, and Yacht Club appears a bit more expensive and that was where we made the reservation for Beaches & Cream Soda Shop during this trip. We had a little incident on our way to the Yacht Club Resort from Saratoga Springs Resort. We took the wrong hotel bus to Hollywood Studios (supposed to take the bus to Epcot). Upon getting off, we found there was no bus directly to Yacht Club resort, so we asked the cast members what should we do and he directed us to walk straight ahead from the bus stop and towards a lake on the right where we could catch a boat ride. The little detour led us to call the restaurant and delay our reservation by over an hour. The boat stops in order: Dolphin Resort-Yacht Club-Boardwalk Villas-Epcot International Gateway Beaches and Cream Soda Shop to me feels like is designed to evoke the fast-food cafe where our parent generation would eat at when they were teenagers. What makes this place special is if someone orders the signature Kitchen Sink (a large ice cream dessert for four people for $36), the restaurant will turn off the lights and then turn the flash red lights and sirens on for a minute before serving to the guest's table. My husband asked if I wanted to order Kitchen Sink but I felt it would be too much for just two of us, so we just ordered the ice cream and a milkshake. The burgers honestly were average - Angus beef burger for $20 and a chicken sandwich for $19. The restaurant's overall decor and color scheme are very appealing, and it happened to match the pink macarons and Eiffel Tower ears I bought in the France Pavilion of Epcot! Next to the restaurant, there are paid arcade machines in video game room, and the bathroom was very clean. It was also great to take a leisurely walk to Boardwalk and enjoy the view and sunset. Overall we enjoyed this dining experience.

Review is for the food only - not the staff. The staff were wonderful. My grilled cheese was served with the cheese pre-smeared across the entire plate. If it had tasted good the mess / horrible appearance would not have mattered. Both the cheese in the grilled cheese and the soup tasted like flour. Melted, pasty on your tongue flour. I ate a few bites of each and looked forward to why anyone actually goes there - dessert. I have wanted my own "beautiful," "photogenic" Disney dessert for over three years now. Despite all of the stuff you see on Instagram, there really aren't many. I ordered a $16.00 shake and the photo below is what came out. Pre-melted, completely soup "ice cream" and it definitely was not photo worthy. Sad and disappointing.

My favorite ice cream place on Disney property! I try to come here after running every Disney race because what is better than a giant ice cream after running a marathon?! Love the ambiance and the energy of the staff members - definitely a Disney restaurant! This place fills up fast so you definitely need a reservation but if you don't, there's a walk up window too!

Definitely one of the cheaper, but still solid, options at Disney. We were staying at the Beach Club Resort and got lucky that a friend made this reservation then decided she didn't want it. It's hard to get reservations at Beaches & Cream. I think it's because it is a relatively small restaurant. I'm a little surprised people go out of their way to eat here, since it isn't located in any park so that means you have to leave to travel here, but we did have a solid experience. This is your standard diner look and diner fare. It's a pretty small menu. They don't have chicken tenders on there for kids, but they will make it for you. My son got the chicken tenders and I got him a side of yogurt and carrots. I did this, because my husband was getting a side of fries and I thought it would be too many fries. That was my mistake, the food portions aren't huge. It's actually what I would expect a normal food portion should be. Therefore, don't plan to share things, like tater tots or fries. If you want them, get your own. My husband got the French Dip Sandwich with fries and I got an Angus Cheeseburger with Chili Cheese Tater Tots. I highly recommend going with the Chili Cheese Tater Tots. They were delicious. The chili is beef (I don't eat pork). The French Dip Sandwich was very good. The Angus Cheeseburger was pretty standard. I'd recommend the French Dip above the Cheeseburger if you're having trouble deciding. The desserts are big and sugar filled. My son wanted a brownie so I got a brownie a la mode and put the ice cream/whipped cream/etc. on the side. It's huge. I'm still surprised how cheap everything is. Normally Disney is much more expensive than I expect, but here was the opposite. The dessert was nothing special, so it's more the size that's impressive. Still, you really can't mess up ice cream. Upon check out, the waiter gave me the wrong check so I saw another table ordered Chili Cheese Tots, coffee and a sundae. Now that is a solid meal. I would definitely recommend that. A full lunch plus dessert here is a bit much. We all walked out stuffed tighter than a tick. I'm glad I experienced this, but unless I'm staying at the Beach or Yacht Club, I probably won't go out of my way to eat here. However, it's definitely worth the experience if you've never been!

Fun atmosphere. Standard burger and Fry place. Tge ice cream was amazing. We ordered the Philly sandwich and cheeseburger and fries. For dessert we had strawberry shortcake sundae and brownie Ala mode. Next time we will skip dinner and go for the kitchen sink! Our server was excellent.

When we went we grabbed seats on the outside, at a table in the shade. Walked up to the order window, and ordered the miniature kitchen sink. You can choose between Mickey or Minnie sink. I went with Mickey. It's a smaller version of the kitchen sink dessert inside; that one serves 6. The miniature version is good for 2-3 people. There's big scoops of vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry ice creams, nuts, cherries, pineapples, strawberries, sprinkles, chocolate sauce, peanutbutter sauce, brownies, and oreos. I think I tasted banana to, but I'm not sure. You get to keep the dish. Once ordered, it was ready in about 5 minutes. Service encounter was friendly. No long lines or issues.

I loved this spot! It was cute and fun. We seen quite a few people get the kitchen sink and wish we could have but after lunch, we just couldn't eat anything else. Our waitress was very attentive and helpful. She gave us other recommendations on Disney property that I will definitely try on my next trip. You cannot stop here and not try the ice cream sundaes, they are delish!

I just adore this soda shop. Almost impossible to get a reservation less than 60 days out, but if you can get in it's a joy! The food is average soda shop food grilled cheese, burgers, and fries but we loved every bite. The ice cream is the star of the show. The no way jose could feed 2-3 and it's just delicious, don't forget to ask for extra peanut butter sauce. Whenever a family orders the kitchen sink they put on a little show as it's 16 scoops of ice cream. Perfect location on boardwalk for the walk to epcot after! A must add to your disney vaca.

Finally made it back to Beaches & Cream!!! I had not been in ages, before the renovation actually. So, I was excited to see the expanded and refreshed location. Love the size, they for sure needed a larger venue to accommodate the demand. I do feel like they took away the soda shop feel, it is still very pretty but not the same feel it had. We did not have reservations and used the join walk-up list feature in the My Disney Experience app. The app advertised a 10-minute wait and that is just about what we waited, so kudos for nailing that. We were seated at the bar that faces the kitchen, which we were more than ok with. Our server was wonderful and took such great care of us. I ordered a Cheddar-Bacon-Ranch Chicken Sandwich minus tomatoes. As per the usual Disney fashion, my order was correct. No, the menu does not list ranch as an ingredient on the sandwich so still trying to figure out why it is in the name as I never tasted ranch nor did I ever see any. It was still a tasty sandwich!!! The fries were ok, seems like they may have been overcooked as they were darker and mediocre. For dessert, we ordered a No Way Jose, with no whipped cream. OMG, it was so good. Love all the ingredients in this, especially the Peanut Butter. We love it here and will be back!

Beaches & Cream Soda Shop is always a must do for our family. It is easy to get to since we stay at Beach Club. I could see how it wouldn't be so easy to get to if you aren't stay at B or Y Club. The must get meal is the grilled cheese with tomato soup. It is so good every single time! I also recommend you order the kitchen sink at least once as a family. You will need 4+ people, but it's pretty awesome. We didn't do it this time. However, the No Way Jose is my absolute favorite. I had this sundae twice while staying at Beach Club. It has so much peanut butter, which I love. Everything ice cream that you order is great. Our server was friendly and was able to get my sundae to go, which I appreciated.

We stayed at Beach Club and made a reservation for Beaches and Cream on one of our rest days. The restaurant is super cute but very small on the inside. My fiancé had the root beer float and enjoyed it. I had the patty melt which was AMAZING! His french dip sandwich was also fantastic. We split the No Way Jose sundae for dessert and it was delicious. Service was fine, but not super attentive. We will definitely return!

Good food, but not a very good value. Good service and fun theme. The restaurant used to have a cuter old diner vibe.

Busy place located at the Beach Club Resort. Known for their kitchen sink, we typically opt for an order to go and sit on the beach either in chairs or one of the swings.
