You have them with places like Trader Sams at Disney&#8217;s Polynesian Village Resort and with the brand new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/2016\/07\/foodie-friday-new-abracadabar-disney-boardwalk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AbracadaBar<\/a> at Disney&#8217;s BoardWalk, but there are a few lounges that have been around for a while that are classics in their own right. One such lounge is the Territory Lounge found at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/walt-disney-world\/resort-hotels\/faq\/wilderness-lodge\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Disney&#8217;s Wilderness Lodge<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/walt-disney-world\/dining\/menus\/territory-lounge-menu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Territory Lounge<\/a> is connected as a part of the resort&#8217;s signature restaurant, Artist Point. It is in its own dedicated area, with it&#8217;s own great theme. Territory Lounge has a classic Pacific Northwest vibe going, with large carved animals, paintings of the great outdoors, and a giant map on the ceiling showcasing the adventures of Lewis and Clark. It has sort of a masculine feel to it, with its emphasis on woods, leathers, and dark colors. Shadowboxes of tools and other unique items adorn the walls as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-48997\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Territory-Lounge-3-400x300.jpg\" alt=\"Territory Lounge 3\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Territory-Lounge-3-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Territory-Lounge-3.jpg 550w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-48996\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Territory-Lounge-2-400x300.jpg\" alt=\"Territory Lounge 2\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Territory-Lounge-2-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Territory-Lounge-2.jpg 550w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-48995\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Territory-Lounge-1-400x300.jpg\" alt=\"Territory Lounge 1\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Territory-Lounge-1-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Territory-Lounge-1.jpg 550w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-48998\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Territory-Lounge-4-357x400.jpg\" alt=\"Territory Lounge 4\" width=\"357\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Territory-Lounge-4-357x400.jpg 357w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Territory-Lounge-4.jpg 536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 357px) 100vw, 357px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I find that the Territory Lounge is rarely crowded, so if you&#8217;re looking for a quite place to grab a quick bite or beverage, this is the place to do it. And seating is plentiful, with plenty of options. You can sit at the bar, at a table, or settle in to one of the couches or plush chairs.<\/p>\n<p>The menu does seem to change a bit here, based on the season, so keep that in mind, however, most items are staples.<\/p>\n<p>On this visit, we decided to go simple. We weren&#8217;t super hungry and knew that sharing would be a good options. So\u00a0 we sampled the Pulled Pork Nachos with corn chips, cheddar, hard apple cider salsa, creme fraiche. While the nachos were good, they weren&#8217;t a stand out. These were kind of just ok.\u00a0 The chips were crisp, the pulled pork had a great smokey flavor, but the rest wasn&#8217;t super outstanding. \u00a0 I thought the apple cider salsa was ambitious, but also weird and didn&#8217;t pair well with the nachos overall.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-49000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Territory-Lounge-Nachos-400x264.jpg\" alt=\"Territory Lounge Nachos\" width=\"400\" height=\"264\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Territory-Lounge-Nachos-400x264.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Territory-Lounge-Nachos.jpg 550w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Honestly, while I think that Territory Lounge is a fabulous place to grab a bite (you do want to try the Portobello Bisque), I wouldn&#8217;t get this version of nacho again.\u00a0\u00a0 But that&#8217;s the great thing about a place with a menu that changes so much. It adds some great variety.<\/p>\n<p>And guess what? In researching this article, it appears that the nachos recently changed to a more mainstream version of nacho.\u00a0 They now feature Farmers Tomato Salsa and Verde Sauce instead of the creme fraiche and the apple cider salsa. So, maybe it&#8217;s time to give the nachos at Territory Lounge a chance once again.<\/p>\n<p>Or I might want to try the Caprese Flatbread or Crispy Asian Chicken Wings, or something else entirely. These lounges, I feel, have the opportunity to take the most chances. That&#8217;s what makes them so unique and so great for Guests to experience.<\/p>\n<p><em>Have you tried the Territory Lounge?
