Nomad Lounge

Our favorite spot at Animal Kingdom to eat - we always get the churros and they have tons of great non-alcoholic drink options (highly recommend the Balinese Breeze). We stop here every trip and are always satisfied. Definitely recommend sitting outside as the views can't be beat and it stays pretty cool (shaded).

We sat out on the patio of Nomads on a day that was 94 degrees. And it was cool and relaxing. I wasn't even hot. The breeze and fans helped a lot. Our server Kevin was great. We traveled a loooong way to get my daughter some gluten free churros and they did not disappoint! The drinks were also great. My wife said the cauliflower here is one of the best food items on Disney property. Thank you to server Nate and general manager Tania!

This was our first visit to the Nomad Lounge, but it certainly won't be our last. The staff was welcoming, and the bartenders were amazing. The drinks were great, but the ribs and chicken wings should be entrees instead of appetizers. They were absolutely delicious! And, don't get me started on the churro with vanilla dipping sauce for dessert. I am not usually a fan of churros, but this experience has made me appreciate what churros can be. The Nomad Lounge is truly a hidden gem, with seating inside, as well as covered seating outside.

Disney's Animal Kingdom Nomad Lounge, I had visited once before with my sisters family so with kids and grandkids popping all around (hyper from the day) was hard to focus on the atmosphere and food/drinks. This time we went and stood in line just moments before they opened at 10:30 and got a two- seater outside on the porch and enjoyed the insect soundtrack and music offerings (mc Afro beats- looked it up Shazam). Also by sitting by the railing you see the water parades with various characters;) Next up was the bread service! Coconut Curry Sauce, Guava Sauce, Ginger Pear Chutney and served with crispy Papadams (Indian flatbreads made from lentil flour, with just just a bit of curry?), Thai Red Curry Milk bread (so soft reminds me of Wonder Bread), and Pao de Quejio (small cheese rolls) $14.00 Ordered the Vegetarian Sliders and Fries, came with two small slider and 4 fries made from yucca. $15, I believe last time we had this there were 3 sliders but perhaps it was dinner time and that is why? They were good but not worth $25. I did see an epic salad at the table next to us, definitely ordering that next time. Along with our drinks, Hibiscus Henna $6.75 and Mustang Coffee almost $15. Mine was refreshing and added just a bit if water to it, a bit strong on the line but so good!!!! My husband said it was tasty but more for winter with the butter and alcohol. On a hot day, not so much. It was a nice oasis in the middle of the park. I loved the porch, even though hot, felt more exciting than inside or at the bar! Go, enjoy the atmosphere and bread service!

One of my favorite places in the world. The ribs are delicious and maybe one of the best deals on Disney property! What can you get for $10 at any restaurant or bar around Disney? I love the specialty cocktails, but if you're a beer drinker you have to try Kungaloosh! Don't leave without ordering the churros. You can thank me later.

We had our first visit to Nomads Lounge this week and we will go back for sure. The atmosphere and lounging chairs and couches were just what we needed for a break. We ordered the Honey-Chili Glazed Pork Belly, the Charcuterie board, Churros, and the just added to the menu…Wings! The Churros and Wings are a must order!! The churros were crispy on the outside and so light and fluffy inside. Absolutely the best I’ve ever had! The wings were cooked perfectly…crispy outside, tender inside and the flavor was well thought out and unique. The chef (?) came out to ask what we thought since they had just added them to the menu the day before and explained how they made them. So glad we ordered them. Drinks…I ordered the Hightower Rocks and a Hibiscus watermelon drink that I can’t remember the name of. My husband had a scotch and loved they had a full, well stocked bar. Couldn’t find a thing wrong so getting a 5 star review 🤩
