Quite possibly my new favorite spot in Hollywood Studios.
We recently spent a week at Disney World, and on our second trip to Hollywood Studios it rained for hours. Not just a quick Florida thunderstorm, it flat out poured for awhile. We had ponchos and braved the rain for some rides and the Muppet 3D movie, but our shoes, socks and pant legs got soaked. Right as we were about to give up for the night, the rain stopped, and I suddenly remembered reading about the Tune In Lounge. At that point, a drink was definitely in order.
The Tune In Lounge is attached to/part of the waiting area for the Prime Time 50s Cafe, so I don't recommend trying to visit during prime meal hours; it gets pretty packed. But later in the evening, during quiet times at the park, this is a great spot. It's a fully-stocked bar with a few fun drink specials, a few decent beers, and the full menu for the restaurant is available.
The bartender -- a guy from a small town in Wisconsin not far from Chicagoland -- was personable and friendly. The atmosphere is just fun. Kitschy but not ridiculous. Yes, it's theme park prices -- my fruity cocktail was about $11 (and I think I lost my electric ice cube, boohoo:( ) and husband's beer was $8 (for Sam Adams Oktoberfest) -- but hey, it's vacation. It's just a great little spot to feel a little less like you're in a theme park and a little more like you're at a cool bar just relaxing.
I'm really, really glad we discovered this place this trip, and I'm going to be sure it's on our radar for next time.
Booze at Disney, heck yes but bring your wallet. This is a fun little place attached to the 50's prime Time Diner and it's like taking a trip back in time. A 50's style living/waiting room for the restaurant leads right into this bar.
A nice selection of beers and the usual mixed drinks with cool specialty drinks like Dad's Electric Lemonade, where Dad whips up an electrifying blue drink with Bacardi Rum, Skyy Vodka, Blue Curaçao, Sweet & Sour Mix, and Sprite.
Pricy but fun it's a great place to get away from the insanity that is Disney.
Enjoy!
Like Christopher O said, a visit to Hollywood Studios usually means a visit to Tune In Lounge!
The bar is also the waiting area for 50's Prime Time so it can get a little crowded. Â The decor is really cute though and there are couches and tv's making you think you're in an old living room. Â All the tv's are showing old black and white shows that kids these days would have NO idea what they are. Â The parents get a kick out of seeing their old favorites though. Â
Nice selection of beers, usually the normal offering at most Disney bars. Â
If you're not in the mood for alcohol, you can always order a milkshake (or other food) as well. Â The pb&j shake is delicious!
What a well hidden gem! It's located off of the 50's Prime Time restaurant so there are normally quite a few people in there waiting for their table. But for the most part you can find a place at the bar pretty quickly.
It's a full service bar (I believe) and there are two dedicated bartenders so the wait for drinks isn't bad. It's  our first stop if we go in during the evening and the only way I can get my other half to go to the Studios :)
My favorite part of the Hollywood Studios. Â Since this is my least favorite park at WDW, adult beverages make it much more enjoyable. Â And this is a full bar with a cool atmosphere and friendly bartenders. Â And they will put your drinks in to go cups if you aren't staying. Â We skip the restaurant and enjoy the bar!
Review Source:I love Disney parks. Â I love being able to spend the day with friends and family and making lots of fun memories to think about in my old age. Â I love drinking. Â So when I visit the Disney Hollywood Studios, I always try to make a pit stop at the Tune In Lounge! Â
The bar is located right next door to the 50's Prime Time Cafe and is a great place to relax and have a cocktail while waiting for a table or just to get out of the heat and madness that a theme park can throw at ya. Â
Depending on the weather, I sometimes just hang out at the bar to get out of the heat while at other times, I get my drink to go so we can enjoy the great Florida weather. Â Â For me, the best part of this whole bar are the cast members who work there. Â The drinks are the normal "Disney Pour" so don't expect anything heavy on the alcohol... I always order straight booze on the rocks or a beer. Â They can't make a weak drink that way. Â But if you do order one of their specialty drinks, Â just remember they use lots of ice and lots of fillers to make it.
I also like this place because you get to meet a large assortment of guests from all over the world. Â So have a seat... order a cocktail... and start up a good conversation with the guy or gal next to you. Â Enjoy!
After going through the Magic Kingdom this past weekend with my brother and my friend Kimmie S, we decided to go over to Disney's Hollywood Studios as we found out that they had a cool Toy Story ride. Â Upon arrival after lunch, we were in the mood for a drink, and hence decided to stop at the Tune In Lounge.
Now...for most of all who have been to Disney during the summer...the weather is HOT, humid and can be very discomforting at times. Â Walking in to the Tune In was a blast of cold AC that was in order and very refreshing.
The drinks? Â Not bad. Â I ordered a Blue Tini that had a glowing ice cube. Â VERY cool, and it was quite refreshing.
But why not a 5 star? Â Well, I noticed they had lychee syrup and inquired about a lychee tini. Â Now...points given for honesty as the bartender mentioned that this is not something they make. Â Points I am also granting for attempting to make me one AND trying to fix it. Â I just happen to be a tough Lychee tini critic, which is one of may favorites!
When at the Disney Studios, this is the place to have your drinks. It's a place with friendly tourists and locals as well as nice bartenders. It's adjacent to the 50's Prime Time Cafe and also serves the Hollywood & Vine on the other side. You can even order food at the bar. Great watering hole!
