We noticed loud construction work being done inside the former Big River Grille & Brewing Works at Disney’s BoardWalk Resort this morning, February 19.

Construction Work at Big River

Big River, which closed in January 2024, has been out of operation for over two years. But we noticed loud construction, which sounded like interior demolition, happening at the former restaurant today. The front of the location is blocked off by refurbishment hedges.

We noticed a rental trailer sitting out in front of the front entrance, tucked behind the hedges. As of right now, there has been no announcement regarding what will replace Big River. Though we can assume that if interior work is being done, an announcement will come sometime in the foreseeable future.

What do you hope moves into this spot? Let us know on social media!
