The Tune in Lounge is the bar attached to The 50’s Prime Time Café. The bar is open seating, first come, first serve, and has a great 1950’s retro look. The best part is that you can get the full 50’s Prime Time Café Menu here, especially great if you failed to make advanced dining reservations. The boyfriend and I stopped in here for a drink and a milkshake yesterday while at the park. We needed an escape from the heat and the crowds, so we decided to pop in. He had Dad’s electric blue lemonade. It was really good, but a bit pricey at $ 11.75. However, you are at Disney, so what do you expect. I had the PBJ milkshake. It is one of my favorite treats in any of the parks. It is available at 50’s Primetime or here at the Tune in lounge. You can get it in a glass for the lounge, or a paper cup to take to go. It runs about $ 8. Great spot!

With all the refurbishments going on this was the only bar I could find and it took 15 minutes to get a drink and the bartender was rude. My advice would be to leave and go somewhere on the Boardwalk.

This bar doesn’t feel like a «Disney» bar. Great drinks, super friendly staff, and I love the décor. The beer is actually cheaper in here than the stands outside and they have a better selection.

The atmosphere’s lovely and the bartenders are super-friendly and capable, but the food here was pretty and mediocre. That’s okay.

The only reason for the 5th star not showing up here is sometimes with everyone standing around someone waiting to order might get over looked. I set at the counter for a good 5 minutes last time before anyone said a word to me. I can overlook that and give it 4 stars because of the food and beverage options here. The menu is the same as the 50’s place next door if you are really wanting that food but can’t get a reservation. My last time I was here I had the chicken pot pie. I don’t think I have ever had a better version of this comfort food. I also love the traditional cherry cokes they make here. Love Love Love them. Make sure to get one to go on your way out. As well if you still have room in your stomach grab the peanut butter and jelly shake. It can hit almost anyone’s sweet spot… though I would like it to have a bit more jelly taste to it. Though I haven’t tried any I here this is a great place to get that adult beverage you might need after a day at the park. Love this place and can’t wait till the next time I can eat here.

Came in here to wait for our table at the 50s diner. Very cool, retro design and feel. Bar was packed so it took about 7 minutes to actually get served. Crystal was very friendly and nice. She asked if I wanted a double which I loved(lol!) There is some seating areas but not plentiful which is tough when it is very busy. I suspect this is a spot that parents love to get away! I didn’t happen to see anyone ordering meals other than a plate of fries, so I’m not sure of the eating situation here. Again, there wouldn’t be that much space to eat anyway.

A hidden oasis in Hollywood Studios. Look to the right of the Star Wars character restaurant(Hollywood and Vine?) for it. Inside is blessed air conditioning and a full service bar. We were directed here to try the Peanut Butter Milkshake which we ordered along with glasses of water. The place wasn’t too full on our visit but can be if folks from the 50’s Prime Time Café are waiting in there for their table. Our bar tender was super nice but was hustling the whole time serving folks at the bar as well as the servers who were coming and going at regular intervals. The milk shake was indeed wonderful and refreshing. We will definitely keep this spot in mind for future visits to avoid the heat and crowds outside.

What began for me as a place to grab a quick drink before heading back out into the park, turned into a few drinks and a full meal. Tune In Lounge is connected to the 50’s Prime Time Café. You can either go in the Café entrance or pop in the unmarked door to the left of the main entrance. Inside you’ll find one of the best places on Disney property, especially in a park, to relax and grab a drink from a full bar. I highly recommend getting a Long Island Iced Tea or trying one of the many 50’s-influenced drinks from their cocktail menu. You can either drink it while you wait for a table in the«living room», sit at the bar… or get it to go. If you’re lucky, you’ll get some great character performances by some guys who are there to fix the TV that’s on the blink. Cheers! For a rundown of what to order for food, click here:

Although they have a decent beer selection and full bar, the service has been on the mediocre side. I have been to this lounge on three different occasions and I have had the same experience each time, bartenders that don’t seem to have a sense of urgency when there is a lined formed to the back of the room. Unfortunately I am a slave to my tastebuds and this is the only location in the park that has the beer I want. So… I wait and wait and wait some more. Maybe I need to visit when the place isn’t crawling with thirsty patrons as I clearly have had a different experience than the other reviewers.

I’m so torn. I love a full service bar in the parks, but the service is a bit bad. I had time to kill today and sat at the bar(a favorite pastime). It took ten minutes for either bartender to acknowledge me and I was sitting front and center. I guess they don’t have to be good bartenders since they don’t have to cultivate a regular following. The beer was reasonable however, and the great liquor drink selection was a fantastic surprise.

I loved this lounge. It’s made to look like a retro living room area and it’s a blast. Many of the people here where waiting for tables at the connected 50’s Prime Time Café. We got a kickout of watching the way they seat people. Looks like a fun place to dine. We were just there for drinks so we sat at the bar. The bartender there doesn’t carry on the 50’s personna that the Café does, which was fine. He was very polite, fast and friendly. I had Grandma’s Picnic Punch which was super delicious and doesn’t skimp on the alcohol! Definitely try this one out! The glow cube was a fun addition, but you can order it without that and save yourself a bit of $ if you want. Our bartender spoke with the ladies next to us and told them he’d worked for Disney for 22 years. Crazy! I really had a good time here and will come back next time I’m in Disney.

Nice place to wait and grab a drink while you wait for a seat at the diner. You can order food from the bar. Drinks are strong.

A great heads up for single diners or couples wanting a sit down meal without the long wait for a table. Go to the bar. Seriously. When I checked in at the host stand, I simply asked if the bar had a comparable menu, and the cast member smiled. «No, they have the full menu, and sitting there will save your 30 – 45 minutes.» Done and done. I took a seat near the far end of the bar, as it was rather crowded with folks waiting for their tables to become available as well as folks getting their cocktails to go, so they could enjoy DHS. Originally, I stopped in to simply get lunch, but it turned into an impromptu fine dining experience, complete with Grandma’s Picnic Punch as a prelude, the vegetarian lasagna as my main course, and topping it off with a Peanut Butter & Jelly Shake as my dessert. David the Bartender was incredibly personable and engaging, taking time to make conversation with the patrons crowding the bar as he made drinks. Often times, the Disney Bar mêlée can be worse than a college town dive bar, but the bartenders operate a clean, happy, and most importantly genuinely warm ship. For vegetarians(and skeptical carnivores who love a beefy lasagna), I implore you to give the vegetarian lasagna a whirl. It isn’t weighed down with an overabundance of pasta or drowning in cheese, and the vegetables make it hearty and healthy. You’ll clean your plate without realizing it! Booze Hounds, you’ll discover that Grandma’s Picnic Punch packs a wallop! She wasn’t messing around while trying to survive family fun time! ;) Oh, and the PB&J Milk Shake is childhood in a cup. I kid you not. I’m definitely making this one of my go-tos at DHS, and heck, I may try to make a reservation in the future to sit at a proper table with friends, so they can share in the festivities!

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 Café, 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.

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. The décor is really cute though and there are couches and tv’s making you think you’re in an old living room. All the tv’s are showing old black and white shows that kids these days would have NO idea what they are. The parents get a kick out of seeing their old favorites though. Nice selection of beers, usually the normal offering at most Disney bars. If you’re not in the mood for alcohol, you can always order a milkshake(or other food) as well. 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. Since this is my least favorite park at WDW, adult beverages make it much more enjoyable. And this is a full bar with a cool atmosphere and friendly bartenders. And they will put your drinks in to go cups if you aren’t staying. We skip the restaurant and enjoy the bar!

I love Disney parks. 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. I love drinking. So when I visit the Disney Hollywood Studios, I always try to make a pit stop at the Tune In Lounge! The bar is located right next door to the 50’s Prime Time Café 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. 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. For me, the best part of this whole bar are the cast members who work there. 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. They can’t make a weak drink that way. But if you do order one of their specialty drinks, 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. So have a seat… order a cocktail… and start up a good conversation with the guy or gal next to you. 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. 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. Walking in to the Tune In was a blast of cold AC that was in order and very refreshing. The drinks? Not bad. I ordered a Blue Tini that had a glowing ice cube. VERY cool, and it was quite refreshing. But why not a 5 star? Well, I noticed they had lychee syrup and inquired about a lychee tini. Now… points given for honesty as the bartender mentioned that this is not something they make. Points I am also granting for attempting to make me one AND trying to fix it. 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 Café and also serves the Hollywood & Vine on the other side. You can even order food at the bar. Great watering hole!
