New restaurant = less room for DVCs, more overhead.

You can also order food at the pool bar, though there is not a ton of seating. Aside from Sanaa to go.

Sanaa does a QS breakfast option, where you can get what you want and either sit in the restaurant to eat or take it with you. The gift shop also has some grab and go items for breakfast.

We love the Polly but I am a little worried about where all these extra folks are going to go for food. Capt. Cooks is always slammed at lunch and we rarely find a place to sit. :( I actually like the way the pool is looking so far...

I hope its a restaurant. Gotta throw a bone to the DVCers...

it sure does look like a restaurant/bar....too big to just be a pool bar. I am hoping they add some features to the final version of the pool...not just a plain pool....if anything it should be more over-the-top than the other pool considering the building is so lightly themed...

They’re straws to be offered up to the giant tiki gods so they can drink from Seven Seas Lagoon for good luck.

It's a traditional Tiki arcade.

Well, there is the pool bar there and it has some real food (doesn't help for breakfast though)

That does look like a mini version of the Cake Bakery. Is this why it's been taking forever for them to open on the other side of the WDW Pond. 😂 cakes for all.

Looks like a bar in the original concept art.

Cake Bake take notice!

That round room certainly looks like some kind of hangout. Unkown if it's an eatery or drinkery or what, but I'd watch the weddings roll by while sipping something there.
