BoardWalk Deli is expected to open next week on Disney's BoardWalk, and crews are busy working on the exterior this week.


Signage is being changed, and the BoardWalk surrounding the former BoardWalk Bakery and BoardWalk Ice Cream shop is getting some attention.


BoardWalk Bakery, BoardWalk Ice Cream, and the former ESPN Club are all currently closed, and revised operating hours are in place for other locations.

I'd like to see their yearbook chock full of pictures of them in a surrey bike riding down the Boardwalk, getting ice cream, having lunch at the Hondoran (?) food truck, and riding around the lake in a swan boat.

It was a really active school year so they deserve it. Enjoy summer camp, boys! Make good choices!

Looks like they are taking the summer off.

This is my third night here. The Boardwalk has plenty of foot traffic, lovely music, and best of all, so far the jump ropers are not here tonight, for which I'm exceedingly grateful. Their routine was fine to watch once. Having it right under my balcony got old, fast.

We were there two nights ago and there was a decent number of people. Actually, the acrobatic show probably had the largest crowd I have ever seen on the Boardwalk. He was really good with the getting the kids and adults involved.

It's been livelier, but still decent crowds.

Anybody been down there recently in the evening? How lively is the place these days? Lots of people watching the entertainment?

No they were hiring for this location. So it’s a little confusing bc it doesn’t look like it will be done anytime in the near future.

So with the roof still being exposed plywood, I would assume without it being watertight they have not begun drywall inside...Usually the structure is completely sealed from the elements before that starts... So I am assuming the interior is still at studs and concrete floor... And they are advertising about hiring? Must be for another location in the area...

The current state, as seen from my balcony.

We're here now. When I told my husband it was supposed to open in 2023, he thought I was pulling his leg.
