NEW Menu at Scat Cat’s Lounge in Disney’s Port Orleans French Quarter Resort | Full Review 2024

Disney’s Port Orleans French Quarter was the first Walt Disney World Resort we stayed at as a couple. The landscaping, smells and Bourbon Street aesthetic made that trip unforgettable and we’ve been back to this resort twice since. Despite this being our favorite Walt Disney World moderate hotel we’d never experienced their signature Lounge, Scat Cat’s.

Opening at 5pm nightly, Scat Cat’s Lounge offers up a classic Jazz Kitchen aesthetic that perfectly complements the turn of the 20th Century Bourbon Street theme of Port Orleans French Quarter. This Lounge even hosts a live Jazz Band on certain days of the week.

After finding out Scat Cat’s Lounge recently revamped their menu we felt like it was the perfect time to finally experience this charming Walt Disney World bar. We ordered EVERY new item on the menu and all the options definitely brought the classic Nawlin’s spice. After dinner, we stopped by the neighboring Scat Cat’s Cafe and had our favorite beignets in all of Disney. See our thoughts, favorite eats and whether we think it’s worth going out of your way to experience Scat Cat’s Cafe.

It’s just it’s so Charming yeah seriously the fountain right as you walk in it’s kind of like a little Atrium as you walk in the majority of the is actually outside and it has this beautiful French Quarter aesthetic it’s so pristine and clean the Landscaping

Here is beautiful um I go on and on about it but yeah they do have a very popular Lounge here called scat cats now if you’ve watched one of our previous videos probably we did actually did a tour on here we have the Beet over at scat Cats Cafe right but the lounge

Actually opens up a little later in the night and because every time we stay here we’re always at the parks we’ve actually never eaten there before right we haven’t and the menu looks really really good yeah right there’s like a shrimp beet pooy and I don’t even like

Shrimp but like be pooy there’s a gumbo poutine too that’s what I most have my eye on do we nachos oh man plus we got to get beet and on Friday Saturday and Sundays they actually have a live jazz band which I think is amazing like for a

Moderate resort to have that kind of you know entertainment you just get a bite to eat and hear that music yeah you can feel the Jazz atmosphere you’re like right outside these are actually my favorite beignet in all of Disney Disneyland Walt Disney World these are

My favorite so I can’t wait to have those Ben I’m really hungry I’m I’m ready to go inside and take a look are you ready Sam ready all right if you enjoy the content please like And subscribe join us for our dinner dining at Scat Cat scat scat cats lounge if

You’re not staying here and want to visit the porter leans French Quarter is actually pretty easy 10 15-minute boat ride from Disney Springs if you’re entering in through the back uh you can actually just walk right in and make a right but if you’re entering through the front if you’re staying here you’re

Going to have to make a left all right we are heading in they have a beautiful fountain in the front lobby that has a lot of kinetic energy and I think they hand out coins here actually toss in here it looks like they have Marty gr themed Mosaic classes

Here too on Sundays and Wednesdays all right let’s head to scat cats it’ll be to our left uh to the right is going to be the cafe we’re get the Beet you see it’s themed like a jazz club all right let’s head in the bar right here in the front so as

We walked in you can see the back room here is where the Jazz Band will play We’re the first ones here tonight I think they open at 500 it’s about like 5:40 yeah it’s really nice in here you see a p piano in the back the whole

Lounge to ourselves they have a little dance floor with the uh emblem up there I think we want to get like one of these tables though or maybe something that’s closer to the light just so we get some good lighting does look like look they have a little patio outdoor seating as

Well so pretty all right we’re seated and first thing I want to say is I really enjoy the atmosphere in here right Sam yes very fun it’s also like laidback well obviously no one’s in here so it’s very laidback it’s only you and me yeah these little lights are not real

But I do like the like stained glass all right they do have a full bar menu but we are here mostly for the new food like we said before the ouy nachos are new they also have Pento cheese fritters we didn’t get these but we hear they’re

Very good the gumbo we got the shrimp po pooy we got we hear the barbecue wings are very good too and the spinach and Arch choke dip is new as well so we’re going to try that out we might end up with some beignet although I don’t want

The Lor so maybe we’ll go to the cafe after for our beignet you see on the back here they have their specialty cocktails I do like the name bbop Bloody Mary very fun and they have some draft beers as well all right so they have the standard Disney mocktails here and samon

I do love a mocktail so they offered us a blood orange lemonade and they even added a salted rim to add a little cocktail feel to it and look at this they put orange in here as well as the lemon so I could squeeze fresh lemon and

Fresh orange right in there this looks really good right sim yes I’m like begging Disney though to like up their mocktail game I like that a lot maybe our server can help them create new concoctions I mean it’s a blood orange lemonade with the Salted Rim does add

Like a cocktail feel to it it’s still being Virgin also the natural Citrus flavor of the orange and the tartness of the lemon or sourness I should say of the lemon work really well because you’re getting the natural flavors from the actual fruits that’s good I would

Get this a nine I I really like this mocktail order again all right so we got everything new it was four things so that was like the perfect amount I got the shrimp pooy you can even see it has some sugar right there on top it’s a

Beet oh yes it’s a beignet shrimp beet PoBoy this is the Dey nachos and Dey nachos this is the new vegan right this is vegan spinach dip that’s vegan and then this is the gumbo poutin yes are you ready for it no it look this is what I think to me

Looks the best the gumbo poutine yes I really like um saak fries and there’s a nice portion and there’s cheese curds gumbo and like a cheese sauce it like very thick fries they’re absorbing the gumbo very well yeah I would have used like a little fork with

That so you can get some of the more of the sausy bits and cheese on there it’s delicious the gumball has a kick but it’s not too bad gumbo if I can handle it like you can handle it and I like how there’s two types of

Cheese like give me all the cheese and different textures the cheese sauce is helping to cool down the spice a little bit and it’s like I like that it’s like smothered like there is no like fry uncovered with all this goodness I’m going to give this an eight yeah it definitely looks really

Good I can’t wait to have a bite myself I’m so excited to eat this look how saturated this is this is like J food made very well yeah all right let’s get a little bit of everything on this bite great flavor very light on the spice and

The thing about the spice is like the cheese cools it down and the fries really absorb all the gumbo juice and cheese juice I don’t see any sausage in the gumbo other than that the steak fry is one of the most perfect fries for a poutine or for something like this

Because it absorbs all that flavor and it makes it like a nice potato kind of mess in your mouth the light spice is cooled down by the cheese curd then you have a little bit of sharp from the other type of cheese that’s in there this is delicious I agree with your

Eight Sam I just if this is there supposed to be sausage gumbo in my I thought that gumbo was like um like a stew kind of it is it is but I always I every time I had gumbo it was a sausage stew if if you guys think that there

Should be sausage and gumbo or if you know there shouldn’t let us know in the comments below I’m always open I feel there’s different types of Gumbo yeah if it had a sausage I’d give it a nine but for me it’s taking an eight cuz it’s missing that all right and do

Nachos this was probably this and the gumbo are probably two things I had my eyes on most three of the four things we got came with chips just so know I like myself some chips they do looks it looks very layered I appreciate that so this

Has and dewy and red bean chili cheese sauce Trinity Pico and sour cream on corn tortilla chips this another thing you could probably use a fork with I want to test out the chip strring the dexterity of the chip the chip is not crunchy it’s probably our fault cuz

We’ve had it sit for a little bit we tend to take a lot of b-roll and pictures and that makes things cool down unfortunately o I think this one is slightly spicier than the gumbo in the poutine a lot of flavor but like look I think there’s almost so much topping

That like look at the the chip the chip is merely a vehicle for the ouy man they really do they pack the flavor and the cheese sauce and the sour cream helps cool it down slightly but this one definitely has more kick than the other

One I would give this one a seven okay so a little is it the spice only back or the sogginess of the chip both of those things combined yeah it could have one I can I can handle more and there I almost think that there’s too much like I like

That there’s a lot of topping but it’s almost this is too much for these ships can’t handle all that can’t handle it okay I’m going to try to Fork a knife this one because I wanted try to get a full chip look at this I think some of these are still crispy

Sam I mean you saw the ones I had though I mean they were visibly flopping that that has a spice though definitely more spice more that melty fake cheese oh wow when you swallow you feel that and it’s more like melty fake cheese the poutine is definitely better I like the chips

Though like if you look at the is they we also we got a top some be chips with the dip with the vegan dish we got they’re good corn tortilla chips not really salted but when you have so much flavor I don’t think you want too much

Salt in a chip using them for dipping I just think you need a very light salt inness saltiness I like this a lot but again you’re right the poutine is a higher quality so I’m going to agree with your seven on this I do love the flavor though I love the melty cheese

Like this is tastes like an elevated por leans nachos to me a perfect bar food all right so this is the spinach and Arch choke dip I wonder if this is spicy too and this is vegan cheese it’s the melti vegan cheese I’d ever seen you’re a nice crunch on that

Chip I’m not going to lie I I was going to hate it it’s nice and warm too the vegan cheese I can’t they’re definitely making vegan cheeses better than they used to have them because it’s a lot more sharpness right yeah and it is it’s creamy and I

I can’t tell and that’s for me like that’s what I look for like if I can’t tell the difference then something I would get again that was the seven no seven so far the the poutine is the winner I think the ships are the ships are good all

Right so I am going to try the spinach Nar choke tip but I wanted to eat this before it started getting too cold on me so this is the shrimp um pooy in a Ben bun and they have these delicious chips with this seasoning on them Sam you’ve

Already tried them on chip haven’t you possibly and there’s a Cajun ramade sauce how does shrimp go with beignet I was Highly Questionable of that you don’t like sweet and savory typically it’s good the shrimp adds a perfect texture to the very light and fluffy beignet and the powdered sugar on

The outside it only like it’s only a light sweetness so just elevates the other flavors another thing though Sam guess what I’m going to say spice it’s spicy it’s a Cajun ram my stomach is not going to be happy tonight but my I’m G to be happy after eating all this it’s

Delicious I like this just as much as the gumbo I think it’s elevated I did not expect to like it I thought the sweetness was going to be too much for me but the actual kind of beignet exterior mixes in so well with the crunchy flaky

Fish um and just it’s just a light light sweetness that’s perfect way to compliment um The Salty and Sav and spice that’s in this I’m going to give it an eight it’s really good all right so I need to try this one out to vegan

Dish I use a chip to help me dip my other chip that’s my secret I so I like that but it has a flavor I’ve never had in in like a spinach dip before it definitely doesn’t taste like regular spinach dip but I still there’s some cream I think it’s still

Creamy it’s just it’s interesting it’s not as like thick as traditional spinach dip there’s this like spinachy taste that I feel like maybe sometimes you don’t get from a spinach and AR choke dip because the cream in it always overpowers most of it which I don’t I

Don’t get here there’s also a lot of spiciness in this like you said chips are perfect nice and crunchy not too salty I’m going to agree with your I’m you said seven right yes I’m going agree with your seven on this it’s very good I can tell it’s vegan cheese but I almost

Think that that’s part of what elevates this is the little sharpness from the vegan cheese and the fact that it’s not too creamy allows the actual spinach to shine and all the flavors T tastes fresh and delicious all right we’re heading out but we’re not leaving we have to get ourselves some

Beignet from the cafe next store I guess getting beignet is the popular thing to do right now there was literally no line when we were in here before you see right here at the front they have their specialty beet at the top they even have some boozy beignet only here over 21 and

These are what we’re getting the mck beignet we are seated and here they are these are my favorite beignet in both Disneyland and Disney World I like these more than the Disneyland beet they are the Mickey beet from scat Cats Cafe here at Port orleans’s French Quarter we also

Got a chocolate or two chocolate dipping sauces they come with one each additional dipping sauce is 99 each they do have caramel dipping sauce I believe it’s and strawberry as well we recommend using a fork a knife because they can’t get mess are you ready Sam I think so I

Need a Little Sugar after all that spice yeah just cut an ear right off the ears are perfect for dipping I have used my hands in the past and if you watch our tour we did of here I actually choked on the powdered sugar in that one but these are so like

Fresh you can Fe yeah they’re warm made to order these are what Tiana’s beignet should be to me and I just made a mess that’s that is B though you got to make a mess with [Applause] beet 10 10 yeah these are Quint essential Disney and Quint essential por Orleans yes the chocolate sauce and the chocolate sauce is hot it’s a chory chocolate sauce so good I’m going to cut my ear off that sounded that sounded bad if I I don’t want to cut my ear off okay

Look at that look at it fresh look at the inside how pillowy it is they’re so fluffy all right now let’s get a good dip they’re perfect I need to try the Disneyland ones again I think we’ve only had them once but the ones at the Tiana

The restaurant is are were terrible in my opinion I have not been impressed by I need to try we we haven’t tried the pant pet they have at Golden Oak Outpost in magic them we hear people like them but they’re C I don’t even know if they

Have them anymore cuz that was like a limited I heard they they suck with them oh hopefully they SL hopefully they make them better but we did hear people like them these are just so good they’re crispy on the outside and they have this like pillowy interior nice sweetness from the

Powdered sugar and then a good bitterness added in the chocolate sauce I prefer this sauce over the other ones very good I’m going to G through 10 if you stay here or if you’re just in the area you got to come here you got to get the Beet it’s like it’s the Disney

Experience unless you don’t like beignet obviously to each their own everyone has different flavor palette that they enjoy some of these times these are too greasy these aren’t greasy at all to me just so good what I meant to say is sometimes people find beet to be greasy these

Beignet I don’t think are greasy at all though all right so that do it for our time checking out scat cats lounge and we also ended up at the cafe cuz we couldn’t not get those beet you can get the boozy beet I believe

Over at the lounge and I do want to say the lounge definitely that bar food was so elevated right it was so good and the staff there are so amazing I actually feel that way about the staff all over this Resort like everywhere you go they’re they’re always really great yeah

So for this Resort you don’t technically have a sit down restaurant there is boat R which is over at Port orleans’s Riverside it’s an easy walk from here they’re kind of connected the two Resorts uh but for here technically you don’t have a sitdown restaurant I almost

Feel like the lounge is kind of a sitdown restaurant because it’s full service the waiter comes right up to us he asks us what we want to eat the food is really good although the menu is limited I mean we probably ate half the menu today and it’s mostly carbohydrates

And cheese and spice it’s like yeah spices and beet yeah as part of the C caloric intake here it was it was delicious though I really enjoyed it I’m not sure how well my stomach’s going to do later uh but I thought the food was really good that’s problem for you later

Later J problem and and the beignet I mean they were the only 10 we had today we definitely recommend if you were in the porter Le area we’re I mean even if like I think they’re worth a boat ride from Disney Springs honestly cuz I agree

Even just for the Beet and and I thought the bignet were like the perfect cap from the dinner like it just capped it off nice and sweet and fluffy yeah also like the atmosphere here the aesthetic the architecture the foliage the Landscaping U the interior design the iron railings um Rawlings whatever

They’re called and uh they also the the light posts on the outside they’re actually themed like they’re G lamps like if it was like the turn of the 19th early 20th century um Bourbon Street it’s it’s beautiful in here I love coming here every time and again maybe

We’re a little biased because we’re nostalgic because this was our first ever stay as a couple on Disney property our first adult stay here too and this is one of this is the place I would say that really swed the seed of us becoming Walt Disney World or even I would just

Say Disney cuz we go Disneyland too Disney at fish units I hope one day we can go to an overseas Park but Porter Orleans will always hold a special special place in our hearts right zans that’s what yeah that’s just what I think about every time I’m here zans man

What was your favorite uh thing that we ate as far as the new food oh my God the poutine was so good yeah I would agree with the poutin actually I’ll put the PoBoy up there mine will be the PoBoy you be the poutine and I think the best

Thing we ate today is definely the Beet right that chocolate sauce hits nice and warm it just it’s a really good flavor too that it’s not like the poos spill chocolate sauce of the CH yeah it’s real chocolate sauce and if you enjoyed the content please like can subscribe liking
