Eula, we're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the smoked prime rib and that Missy provided excellent service. We appreciate your kind words and look forward to welcoming you back!
The whole experience dining here has been second to none!
The history of this place and the efforts preserving it is admirable. The server brought the story to life the way she narrated and with the little extra give aways she gave us. The food is hearty, nothing special but the whole visit and eating here has been enjoyable and I do recommend it for people who are visiting and love Disney!
Plenty of parking, we made a reservation for the 100th Anniversary but you can also just come in and order from their menu. Decent price, will probably go back for the regular offerings.

Great flavor good, and unique atmosphere but myself and people in our party felt the food was over priced for what we got. Small portions of meat. Amazing service and friendly helpful staff. Very attentive. Worth a try but won’t be back. 65 per person was pricey.

Tam O'Shanter isn't just legendary for being one of Walt Disney's old haunts (they even have a plaque at his favorite booth). It's legendary for it's immersive atmosphere, which needs little imagination to understand Walt's fascination with the place. It takes its name from Robert Burns's 18th century poem telling the story of drunken farmer riding home from the pub. Tam stumbles upon a church of witches, warlocks, and the Devil playing bagpipes. They give chase until Tam crosses the River Doon, impassable for evil creatures, and escapes with his life.
The restaurant really leans into this Scottish tale with an old cottage feel with exposed beams, low lighting, and stained/bottle glass windows. There are paintings and portraits of British folk, framed tartan (plaid) pair with its clan name, long stemmed pipes and tankards, flags, crests, and all sorts of paraphernalia. There is even a painting of Tam O'Shanter himself.
The bar area has its own scaled down menu and has open seating. The restaurant proper requires reservations. The serves are fast and friendly across the board. The food is pricey but worth it (you'll likely need a to-go box). The drinks are tasty as well, but not too boozy. Over all, if you love British history & literature, good food, and drinks, Tam O'Shanter will charm your socks off.

Tam O’Shanter feels like stepping into a piece of living history, where classic charm and old-school hospitality still define the entire experience. The building itself has a storybook, Tudor-style character that immediately sets the tone before you even sit down.

Loved this place! Tam O’Shanter has such a cozy, retro English vibe—it really feels like stepping back in time.
The prime rib was delicious and cooked perfectly, and the whole menu feels classic and comforting. The service was friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better.
Definitely a spot I’ll keep coming back to!
