BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted October 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 The new Beaches Pool Bar and Grill is open 7am - 11pm and offers breakfast, lunch and dinner in an outdoor quick-service setting.An added perk to this location is that, after you place your order at the window, a Cast Member will deliver it to you as you lounge by the pool.Beaches menu features dishes that are made fresh to order. The pool bar is quipped with a TV and signature drink selections as well as the option to order food from the grill. The bar will also be adding local and micro brews to the menu in the near future.
