“Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate’s life for me.”

Adventureland in Magic Kingdom can soon raise a glass to swashbuckling as The Beak and Barrel, Pirates of the Caribbean-themed tavern will open later this year in the Walt Disney World theme park, according to Disney Parks Blog.

The lively pirate pub established by legendary rumrunner pirate Captain Meridan “Merry” Goldwyn and her first mate, Rummy, will welcome swashbucklers, scoundrels, bandits and buccaneers of all ages to the tavern.

Rummy, Merry’s trusted companion and first mate serves as the tavern’s quartermaster, sharing tales of piracy and leading the pub’s visitors in a rousing toast. Though Rummy retired from his seafaring days, many say he bears a strong resemblance to the original Barker Bird that once sat at the entrance of the Pirates of the Caribbean ride attraction.

“The Mess” room represents the largest, central space, a place where Spanish soldiers gathered to tell their tales. A large bar with salvaged portions of a shipwreck anchors one side of the room while at the center, a skull-shaped stern holds a myriad of grogs and brews. The Enchanted Rum Bottle will reportedly serve as the source of the tavern’s specialty brews. Above the tables, guests will find an impressive anchor covered in candles and dripping wax.

Inside the Captains’ Quarters, once the living area of the Spanish Comandante, guests can enjoy the finer life, though they’ll find the draperies and artwork carry the effects of the many rambunctious pirate’s sword fights.

Visiting pirates should also keep their eyes peeled on the fireplace with its five mounted miniature ships in a bottle representing pirates from all around the world banding together to defeat tyranny. However, the fight isn’t quite over as the bottles come alive to engage in yet another battle.

Further details regarding opening date and the bites and drinks menu are forthcoming.
