The Disney Food Blog has posted an article on Restaurant and Bar Refurbishments at Disney World’s Old Key West Resort...

Some excerpts...

 

Good’s Foods to Go

We’ll start with a change at Good’s Foods To Go, the Resort’s Quick Service option.

While the menu is unchanged (you’ll still find the Conch Chowder!), the beverage refill station now opens up into a hallway that allows guests to enter the area from the side coming from the pool as well as the front.

Gurgling Suitcase Updates

Our next stop is right next door at the Gurgling Suitcase. This little bar is well-loved… and with good reason.

 

Gurgling Suitcase

 

While the general set-up is the same (the space itself remains in the same area and has retained its intimate size), the decor has gone through some changes. The difference that immediately caught my attention was the walls. The signature display of police and fire station badges from all over the country as well as the really cool DVC member license plates have quite a different feel: you can now find several of them in frames instead of peppered all over the walls as they were previously.

 

Framed patches and license plates

 

One thing that hasn’t changed is that the awesome bartenders at the Gurgling Suitcase continue to help guests feel very much at home and among friends.

Olivia’s Refurb

Refurbishment in the central area at Old Key West is still underway. Sections of Olivia’s (the Resort’s Table Service restaurant) are being refurbished; however, the restaurant is still operating, and that terrific outdoor seating area was open on my last visit.

Thanks for the update Mo. Before making the jump to RV / Fort, we had a DVC at OKW. Many great times spent at the places in your pictures. Glad they are throwing some improvement money at it.
