There is no shortage of places to grab a refreshing beverage at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
But one of our top spots is Dawa Bar, over in Harambe Village in the Africa section of the park!
Even though Animal Kingdom has been reopened since mid-July, Dawa Bar has only been open since mid-September, and at first, it was only operating with limited hours and on weekends.
But, there’s some good news for folks out there who love the Lost on Safari cocktail and beers… Dawa Bar is open every day now!!
When we stopped by today — a weekday! — we noticed this bar was open and Cast Members were mixing up cocktails! When we inquired further, we learned that Dawa Bar is open from 11AM to 4PM on Mondays through Thursdays and 11AM to 5PM on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays!
So, don’t mind us, we’ll be over here sipping on Safari Amber beers and Harambe Iced Tea! And don’t worry, as more spots reopen and expand their hours, we’ll let you know!
We tried the NEW menu items at Yak & Yeti — here’s how they taste!
