In a strange turn of events, the Boardwalk Resort has added a snack bar in the lobby. Taking the place of the old concierge desk, this small snack stand was designed to assist in activating the resort refillable drink mugs. Seeing potential for other items to be sold, the resort recently added a popcorn machine and bottled sodas. There’s also complimentary water available (a spa variety and just ice).
The entire Boardwalk lobby smells like popcorn now, which I guess adds to the ‘seaside amusement park’ feel of the resort. Fingers crossed nobody burns a batch! The lobby snack stand doesn’t have any set hours at this moment, but the Cast Member working the stand said late morning through the evening. Take note that while this stand does sell the resort refillable mug, you can not get it refilled here. For refills you will need to visit The Bakery or Belle Vue Lounge.

Or they could just put a popcorn machine in Belle Vue Lounge during those hours since it’s not open during the day…but..okay. lol
Is there no longer a concierge there or were they just condensed to a small desk? If you’re going to do popcorn… why stop there? Where are the snow cones, cotton candy, and salt water taffy? This is strange ?
That popcorn should be a free amenity.
Of course you do, ya commie.
weird! another makeshift cash-grab. I used to work at Boardwalk, the smell of popcorn in there would have tortured me (I love popcorn!!), so I’m glad this wasn’t going on then.
So now where are concierge services?
They’ve combined the front desk and concierge counter. When standing in the lobby the concierge are the 3 stations at the right hand end of the counter
What a senseless cash grab!! Corporate greed! Walt must be rollin’in his grave!!
Your post misses one of the refill locations for the mugs – Leaping Horse Libations (pool bar) also refills mugs at Boardwalk.
Thanks, we’ll add it.
Desperate!
Grrrrrr….. There’s that Pop Secret again. Time to start rolling in my grave!
Selling the refillable mugs but no beverage to fill them with :/
