dining within Walt Disney World&#8217;s property, especially with so many new restaurant destinations.\u00a0 My family&#8217;s favorite spot in Disney Springs is not a new one, however.\u00a0 We love everything about Raglan Road Restaurant.<\/p>\n<p>Raglan Road is an Irish pub, but don&#8217;t let the theme fool you.\u00a0 This is not an adult-only venue.\u00a0 It is family-friendly, and it&#8217;s not just a place to grab a beer (though you may want to enjoy a selection from their beautiful bar if you&#8217;re of age).\u00a0 Raglan Road will give you the true Irish pub experience, with food from Irish chefs and d\u00e9cor which was imported from the homeland.\u00a0 The restaurant also has Irish entertainment throughout the evenings, including Irish step dancers from 4-9 pm and live bands that perform both on the restaurant&#8217;s indoor stage and their outdoor patio.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8218\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/RR-2.jpg\" alt=\"RR 2\" width=\"467\" height=\"314\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The d\u00e9cor is one of my favorite parts of this location.\u00a0 It is covered with wood paneling, stained glass windows, and brass light fixtures.\u00a0 The mirrored bar serves a vast variety of beers on tap or by the bottle, wines, hard liquors, and cocktails.\u00a0 I am especially fond of their beer flights, but if whiskey is more your speed, they have whiskey flights as well.\u00a0 While you can be seated at the bar, there are also tables and large booths located in several rooms.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8219\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/RR-3.jpg\" alt=\"RR 3\" width=\"500\" height=\"309\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The food here should not be minimized though.\u00a0 Raglan Road&#8217;s kitchen puts out some really tasty dishes.\u00a0 Each table is brought a serving of brown bread with Guinness dipping sauce.\u00a0 This never seems to last on our table- it is slightly sweet and a great starter.\u00a0 Speaking of starters- there is a large selection of appetizers on the menu, including a scotch egg, steamed mussels, baby back ribs, and a soup of the day.\u00a0 My favorite choice though, are the \u201cnom nom wings,\u201d which are some of the best wings I&#8217;ve found at Walt Disney World.\u00a0 They&#8217;re spicy and sweet- crunchy on the outside and meaty on the inside.\u00a0 Many of the appetizers are also available at the bar as \u201clate night snacks\u201d even after the dining room stops serving.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8220\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/RR-4.jpg\" alt=\"RR 4\" width=\"500\" height=\"295\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The entree selections at Raglan Road are upscale versions of Irish home cooking.\u00a0 The Raglan Risotto is a perfectly cooked risotto with fresh peas, pecorino and mozzarella cheese.\u00a0 It&#8217;s light but also creamy, and a large portion.<\/p>\n<p>The fish and chips are large pieces of fresh fish, deep-fried in beer batter.\u00a0 It&#8217;s a great representation of what I&#8217;ve eaten in the U.K.\u00a0 Those who aren&#8217;t adventurous at all, should consider the \u201cSerious Steak\u201d, which is a perfectly cooked strip steak with mashed potatoes and beer-battered onion rings.<\/p>\n<p>Each night, Raglan Road offers a different pot pie selection, and this has gotten rave reviews from our family.\u00a0 The chicken pot pie that we had on our last visit had large chunks of chicken, vegetables, a delicious sauce and flaky crust.\u00a0 Best of all, the pot pie had mashed potatoes hiding at the base, which my husband loved.\u00a0 The menu is full of options though, including roasted chicken, ham, lamb shank, seafood chowder, chicken curry, baked salmon and confit duck leg.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\"

src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/RR-6.jpg\" alt=\"RR 6\" width=\"345\" height=\"282\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Raglan Road children&#8217;s menu is equally as diverse.\u00a0 They can choose from classics like chicken fingers, cheeseburgers or mac and cheese, or try out more authentic options like risotto, shepherd&#8217;s pie, or baked salmon.\u00a0 The children&#8217;s portions are huge, and we have easily split them between two young children, or taken leftovers back to our rooms for another day.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re not too full from dinner, Raglan Road also has a great dessert menu which includes a decadent bread pudding, flan, an apple\/berry crumble, trifle, and whiskey-coated berries with ice cream.\u00a0 My personal favorite is Dunbrody&#8217;s Kiss, which is a chocolate lover&#8217;s dream.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8216\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/RR-8.jpg\" alt=\"RR 8\" width=\"500\" height=\"318\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I highly recommend this restaurant for lunch or dinner.\u00a0 It&#8217;s a great spot to have some delicious food and to take in a show from the dancers or the bands.\u00a0 Reservations are strongly recommended.\u00a0 This restaurant takes one credit on the Disney Dining Plan and accepts discounts from Disney Vacation Club and Tables in Wonderland.\u00a0 Try it out on your next Walt Disney World vacation.\u00a0 I know we already have reservations for our next trip.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Magically Speaking Featured Article<br \/>\nLibrary of Congress ISSN:1556-3863<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px;
