Ready to discover a hidden culinary gem at Disney Springs? We're fresh from our resort day adventure where we uncovered The Polite Pig - a quick-service barbecue spot that's earned a coveted Michelin plate recognition!
This isn't your average theme park dining experience. Though categorized as quick-service, The Polite Pig delivers with table-service attentiveness. You order at the counter, but once seated, staff brings everything to your table - food, drinks, and an impressive array of barbecue sauces. Most surprising was the speed - our food arrived in under 10 minutes, practically unheard of for quality barbecue.
As self-proclaimed barbecue connoisseurs, we approached the menu with high standards. The Low and Slow Brisket sandwich ($15) impressed with its pimento cheese spread, porter barbecue sauce, pickled jalapeños, and crispy onion straws. Our son's Cedar Plank Salmon ($26) with maple Dijon glaze earned his stamp of approval as "better than daddy's" - high praise indeed! For those wanting to sample everything, the Butcher Board for Two ($44) offers an impressive spread of pork shoulder, smoked chicken, brisket, and barbecue cheddar sausage alongside signature sides.
While prices run higher than typical quick-service locations, the quality justifies every dollar. For Disney Dining Plan users, this represents exceptional value for your quick-service credits. Whether you're taking a break from the parks or specifically exploring Disney Springs' culinary scene, The Polite Pig deserves a spot on your must-try list.
