BoardWalk Deli opened its doors to guests today, bringing new quick-service dining to Disney's BoardWalk and the EPCOT resort area.



Replacing the former BoardWalk Bakery, the new deli is essentially unchanged visually but introduces an all-new breakfast, lunch, and dinner menu.


Inspired by delis of the American Northeast, the menu offers house-baked bagels, savory warm sandwiches, and a variety of desserts, including hand-piped cannoli.



The fountain for refillable resort mugs remains for guests of the BoardWalk, and as before, there is no indoor seating, but there are tables on the boardwalk with views of the water. Operating hours for BoardWalk Deli are 7am to 10pm daily.

View the full BoardWalk Deli menu, and continue below for a look at some of the menu highlights.

Breakfast


Some of these options include an Everything Bagel Sandwich with cage-free eggs, sausage, and cheddar cheese, a Bagel Breakfast Sandwich with cage-free eggs, bacon, sweet caramelized onions, and cheddar cheese, or a Plant-based Ciabatta Sandwich with “egg” Florentine, plant-based cheese, tomato jam, and arugula that provides an exciting contrast of flavors

Lunch and Dinner

Choose from a variety of cold and hot deli sandwiches served on traditional marble rye, fluffy ciabatta or soft and springy focaccia breads. As with the breakfast bagels, all breads are baked fresh in-house.

The signature Italian Sub is built with layer upon layer of thinly sliced capicola, sopressata, and pepperoni with provolone, arugula, tomato, arugula pesto, and mayonnaise on fresh-baked ciabatta bread. The savory Warm Pastrami Reuben is a classic deli staple, with generous rolls of thin-sliced warm pastrami topped with sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and Thousand Island dressing on marble rye bread.

For a plant-based twist on a classic favorite, the Veggie Crunch Muffaletta is stacked with cured and pickled root vegetables, an olive-giardiniera tapenade and plant-based cheese, served on focaccia.

You can also opt for a Roasted Chicken Sandwich with cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, and roasted garlic aioli served on ciabatta or the Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Tomato Soup –a classic guest favorite.

To round off your meal, add a whole dill pickle, made in-house with the perfect amount of crunch and tanginess. All of the sandwiches are served with a side of house-made chips, creamy coleslaw, or soup.

Bakery Items

Cannolis are filled to order in a crispy shell with a creamy blend of mascarpone cheese, ricotta, and shaved dark chocolate, with a hint of lemon zest and a touch of Mickey. The Blueberry Scone is made with crème fraiche and topped with pearl sugar.

Northeastern classics include the New Jersey Crumbcake, a moist cake with a thick cinnamon-crumb topping, or the iconic New York-style Half-moon Cookie topped with rich chocolate ganache and buttercream.

For pastry-lovers, there is the delicate chocolate-dipped Cream Puff, hand-piped with silky custard, and the Raspberry Danish layered with velvet custard, fresh raspberries, and sugar crumble. The warm and gooey Cinnamon Yummies make a return. Lastly, there are some tried-and-true classics like cookies, Brownie Cheesecake, brownies, the Cookies & Cream Cupcake, and the 50th Anniversary Celebration Cupcake.

    I don’t hate it. I think it’s the light brown color used on the doors and trim work ( that don’t match the dark wood ceiling beams) that makes these colors seem “off”. Hopefully not every room will look the same so the other rooms will have some better matching colors.

    It’s different but I don’t hate it

    You should consider applying to be a jungle cruise skipper

    What I don't get is the green palate color just like at Grand Floridian they chose a mint toothpaste looking that just doesn't fit or match the resort. Boardwalk's color is maroon!

    Lots of mint paint left over from M. Mouse Merchantile, I see.

    Screendoor reopened today. Interesting color choices

    Never happen. There isn't enough parking, and Lexin who owns the downtown wants RIDICULOUS rent for the space. Many attempts were made to do something with the space and all have failed.

    I didn't realize changes were being made to the store there, I thought it was fine and nice the way it was, but of course because it was nice it has to go, as such. Speaking of that also wondering about the Emporium, that entire back quadrant through to casey's walled off. Do we start cringing now how thats going to turn out?

    Ah, the Boarddwakd, home of on-theme locations like Cake Bake Shop.

    Hot take, if I was in charge... I'd be trying to remodel that bar ;) Maybe some more subtle colours, less circus, less tacky. ETA: I used Bing, please don’t write to corporate about me using AI to express what I would design.

    100% accurate in your assessment - 1990s Disney at its BEST.

    mattpetoFeb 13, 2025

    lol. Hey, that's still theming far beyond anything Carousel Coffee came up with.

    MisterPenguinFeb 13, 2025

    ;) (Yeah, I know it's gone, but it happened.)

    mattpetoFeb 13, 2025

    The BoardWalk Inn pool bar is a great example of theming done well.
