Oh, darlings, gather ‘round and let me tell you the tale of the Saucy Queen’s delightful solo adventure to Disney Springs. Now, let’s be clear—I wasn’t there for just any old reason. Oh no, the Queen had her mission: basking in holiday cheer, scouting the famous Christmas tree trail, and—of course—getting in a little bit of “work” while I was at it (okay, mostly just shopping and drinking, but who’s counting?).
As you can imagine, it didn’t take long before the festive charm of Disney Springs worked its magic on me, and I found myself headed to The Polite Pig. Oh, what a delightful little stop this was! Between the twinkling lights, the wonderful smells of smoked meat in the air, and my trusty laptop (which I swear I was using for productive purposes), the stage was set for a truly saucy experience.
Before I could even get started on the food, I had to dive into the cocktails—after all, a Queen never skips the drink menu. And what better way to kick off the festivities than with a classic Vodka Lemonade? In fact, let’s make that three Vodka Lemonades. Yes, three. By the time I was feeling merry, I was ready for a bit of tipsy Christmas shopping, and honestly, what could be more fun than roaming the shops with a drink in hand?
A special shout-out to Disney’s Annual Pass—because after those vodka lemonades, I happily embraced the sweet little bonus of a 10% discount at Under Armour. Who knew shopping while tipsy would lead to such savvy spending? Thanks, Disney! 💁♀️
The vibe at The Polite Pig was fantastic—the service was wonderful, the atmosphere lively, and the whole experience just oozed with Disney Springs charm. I love that it strikes that perfect balance between casual and elevated dining. You get the fun energy of Disney Springs, but with a more refined touch. It’s perfect for those who want a fun meal, but with a bit of sophistication.
The staff at The Polite Pig were absolutely wonderful—they made me feel right at home, which is always a plus when you’re dining solo. Plus, the bar area made for the perfect place to sit back, relax, and enjoy the scene. Whether you’re with friends or flying solo like me, this spot will make you feel like royalty.
Now, let’s talk about the food—the true star of the show. I nestled into my bar seat, which made the perfect throne for an afternoon of indulgence. And, oh, the food, darling, the food.
For my main, I went for The Slider Trio, a delightful combination of meats that promised both comfort and decadence. Let me break it down for you:
But let’s not forget about the side—because no meal is complete without a side to balance the indulgence, right? Enter the Crispy Brussel Sprouts with Whiskey-Caramel. I mean, who knew sprouts could taste this good? Sweet, savory, and perfectly crispy, these little green delights were an absolute steal at $6. If you’re looking for a perfect side to balance out all the richness, this is it. Trust me, darling, you’ll want these on your table.
While I was happily indulging in my vodka lemonades, I couldn’t help but notice the impressive whiskey selection at the bar. Though I’m more of a vodka gal myself, I’ll admit, that whiskey list nearly made me a convert. There’s something about a well-curated selection that gets me every time.
As for the wine list? Well, it left a little something to be desired. The Saucy King would certainly have a few complaints about the lack of European lager options (as he’s quite partial to his European beer), but the wine list? Meh, it didn’t quite hit the mark for me. If I had one request, it would be a little more variety on that front.
So, what’s the final verdict? For the saucy experience at The Polite Pig, I’m giving it a solid 8/10.
Let’s talk about that Christmas spirit—it’s what really pushed the experience into memorable territory. Between the vodka lemonades, fantastic service, and the holiday cheer surrounding me, I can’t think of a better place to get into the holiday spirit and indulge in some great food.
If you’re planning a visit to Disney Springs anytime soon, do yourself a favor and make your way over to The Polite Pig. It’s perfect for anyone who wants to experience some hearty, flavorful BBQ with a fun, casual atmosphere. I’ll definitely be back for those vodka lemonades, and next time, maybe I’ll try to stay sober long enough to shop with a clear head—but who’s kidding? It’s Disney, after all!
Stay Saucy, The Saucy Queen 👑💋
