With the arrival of Disney Cruise Line’s 5th cruise ship, the Disney Wish, came new Disney spaces. Disney characters and IP got more representation in different areas of the ship. And some of that representation was in the form of lounges and bars. In this post we will be sharing all about Nightingale’s, a beautiful Cinderella themed bar on the Disney Wish.
Disney Cruise Line Lounges and Bars
Disney Cruise Line has many different types of lounges and bars. No matter what you’re looking for, they likely have something you’ll enjoy. Each ship offers different bars and lounges, though some do share the same bars, like Meridian Lounge om both the Disney Fantasy and Disney Dream.
Bars and Lounges on the Disney Wish
The Disney Wish is home to many unique and themed bars. You can find Hyperspace Lounge, the Star Wars bar onboard, The Bayou, a lounge dedicated to Princess and the Frog and many other fun themed spaces. Nightingale’s is the Disney Wish’s signature piano bar and today we are going to share everything you need to know about it!
Nightingale’s on the Disney Wish
A lovely space on the Disney Wish, Nightingale’s is an adult only piano bar. Located right off the atrium, or Grand Hall, on Deck 3, behind soundproof doors, this lounge is truly elegant in design. Nightingale’s serves signature cocktails, mocktails or zero proof beverages, wines and light snacks. Nightingale’s also serves up piano music throughout the night, most nights during the Disney Wish’s voyages.
Theming and atmosphere of Nightingale’s
The theming of Nightingale’s is Cinderella’s “Sing Sweet Nightingale”. With a modern and whimsical atmosphere, the colors are soft metallic blues and grays. And you can find a gorgeous chandelier with music notes to lounge’s namesake just above the piano. The atmosphere is fun and laid back, while still feeling upscale and classy. And thanks to the soundproof doors, it feels relaxing and secluded, even though it’s located in one of the busiest areas of the ship.
Drinks at Nightingale’s on the Disney Wish
If you’ve seen any of the Instagram posts or TikToks that share drinks from the Disney Wish, you may have seen the cute little birdie glass that some of these drinks are served in. This is where you’ll find that drink! They also offer a variety of drinks that are presented with the smoke bubbles. These are always fun and make the drink feel a little extra special. You can also find wines and beers here as well as standard cocktails and a full bar.
Entertainment at Nightingale’s
Nightingale’s is a piano lounge with entertainment available throughout the night. Many performers have sets that they like to play. But sometimes they will take requests too! You can find all of the entertainment times for Nightingale’s on the Disney Cruise Line app.
Does Nightingale’s have a dress code?
Nope! You can basically wear what you’d wear in the dining rooms. No swimsuits or coverups, but otherwise casual garments are fine.
Are kids allowed in Nightingale’s on the Disney Wish?
Nightingale’s is actually Adult Only, so no kids are not allowed into this lounge on the Disney Wish. Unlike some other bars and lounges, Nightingale’s does not offer activities during the day when the lounge is not open. So those under 18 are never permitted in this lounge. If you’re traveling with kids and want to enjoy this lounge, it’s a great opportunity for them to experience the Disney Cruise Line kids’ clubs while you check out the lounge.
Overall, Nightingale’s was one of our favorite spots on the Disney Wish! Being able to relax and enjoy the space along with live piano music became part of our nightly routine. And definitely added a bit of whimsy to our voyage!
