This may be a silly question but, what exactly will this location be? If it is to be food and drink location, how will the tavern theme fit in with the no alcohol policy for the Magic Kingdom. After all, Gaston's sidekick(can't remember his name) asks in the song-"more beer?"

No beer! Think about it, there's already Liberty Tree Tavern and Tortuga Tavern in Magic Kingdom. "Tavern" has a different meaning once you cross under that Train Station. ;)

Mel is right. Once your in MK Disney is very good about emersing yourself into the child side of everything. Maybe they may even do non-alch drinks like Universal does with Butterbeer. Just a thought, but wouldnt surprise me if there were to be no beer/alch references.

How about cider? I'll bet they have something...root beer! Sarsaparilla!

I wouldn't be surprised to see a rootbeer float or something along those lines. I bet the "tavern" portion will focus more on the decor with all of his "trophies" on the walls, etc.

Well, with all this talking, I've worked up quite a thirst. I think I'll take one of those new fangled trolleys down to the drug store soda fountain and meet the boys for a cold sarsaparilla. Oh... ha ha, I'm sorry, I forgot... we're drinking root beer now! Same kind of thing, different name. Well, that's progress for you. Speaking of progress...

and now I really can't resist...:sing:

There's a great big beautiful tomorrow,
Shining at the end of every day.
There's a great big beautiful tomorrow,
And tomorrow is just a dream away.
Man has a dream and that's the start.
He follows his dream in mind and heart
And when it becomes a reality,
It's a dream come true for you and me.
So there's a great big beautiful tomorrow,
Shining at the end of every day.
There's a great big beautiful tomorrow,
Just a dream away....

Well, don't look now when you cross under the train station but, alcohol will be served at Be Our Guest. I suppose my premontion of beer at a tavern(imagine that), even it it was in the MK wasn't too far off base. So much for the "dry" park at WDW. I honestly liked the fact that the MK was alcohol free so, I'm not sure if this is good, bad or otherwise but, things change.

There has been no indication that this will happen at Quick Service locations. At this point in time, Disney has very specifically stated that the alcohol will be limited to ONE restaurant at MK, and only at dinner service.

On a related note, would anyone say that Beauty and the Beast is not a kid friendly movie, or is a bad influence, because of this scene in the tavern? Hmmmm....

in the concept art it showed kids with big beer mugs my guess is they are going to do root beer floats or a butterbeer type concoction
