Olivia’s Café is located at Disney’s Old Key West, and is what I would consider a hidden gem at Walt Disney World! We first ate at this restaurant back in 2018 and have made it a point to start our trip at Olivia’s every Disney vacation ever since! Here’s why we love Olivia’s!
1. The relaxing atmosphere of the resort and restaurant are a great way to kick off your vacation after a morning of travel! This is also a plug for Old Key West, a resort that is often overlooked at Walt Disney World. We love the Key West vibes and colorful décor all around the resort
2. The food is delicious. It’s American cuisine with a Key West spin, and it’s done really well. Some of our favorite dishes on the menu are The Crab Cake, The Catch of the Day (it changes and every time we’ve ordered – it is fantastic), and of course the Buttermilk Chicken which is truly a dish worth enjoying over and over again!
3. The overall atmosphere at Olivia’s is very relaxing – we absolutely love all of the pictures on the wall featuring the Disney Vacation Club family. It’s a fun, inviting atmosphere that we truly enjoy.
4. The cast members here are one of a kind! We have always had the most pleasant experiences and love our conversations around the table. The friendly vibe sets the tone for a great family vacation we’re about to begin!
5. We love Olivia’s to kick-off our trip as we can head over to Disney Springs after dinner via the water shuttle at the resort. It’s super convenient and makes for a very fun first night full of relaxation and plenty of Disney!
I highly recommend adding Olivia’s Café to your Disney itinerary and enjoying the family-friendly Key-West cuisine and relaxation!
