Oh no! I’m sorry about your sandwich. I hate when a favorite changes or goes away. The Cake Bake Shop construction is astonishingly slow. I’m looking forward to the champagne bar, though! Ugh on the partial BW parking lot closure. Staying there next weekend and parking is a pain with all spots available. Can’t wait to grab a drink in Bellevue Lounge!!
It is musty! 😂 The bathroom closure is annoying, my son had a bathroom emergency and we had to run to the Trattoria Al Forno bathrooms. Can't wait for the refurb though!
I hate when the restaurants you like change their menu items. Olivia's changed one of their sandwiches and I have been disappointed every time I go back; missing my old sandwich.
3 adults visiting Disney World Nov 4-9 of this year. We have a choice between Boardwalk Inn, BCV-Deluxe Studio Or BC resort. With the construction going on at the BW, which would you recommend. We where looking forward to staying at the BWI but not sure it would be a good choice with all the construction going on, on the actual boardwalk.
I second the Spicy Italian at Primo Piatto . I’m not really a sandwich person and try to eat other things while at WDW but I did eat two Spicy Italians during our last trip. Earl of Sandwich has also been consistent over the years. In the Epcot resort area, the Prime Rib Sliders at The Crew’s Cup is generally pretty good after 20,000 steps.
I'm so sorry for your sandwich. That happened to me with the tuna sandwich that they had at both Saratoga Springs backstretch pool bar and at Goods To Go at OKW. They changed it. It was so yummy with its flavorful multigrain bread and tuna that included other ingredients like craisins, almond slices and onion.
We just got back from a week in a Deluxe studio at Boardwalk Villas. LOVED the resort and location. Abracadabar was a favorite to grab a drink after a long day of walking. I was super disappointed in the quick service food options. Like it was sandwiches only (and I don't like sandwiches!) unless you wanted to walk to another resort, and the thought of doing that after 20,000 steps was too much. Flying Fish was the best meal we had - just fantastic. Amy, my sympathies for your sandwich death. Stay strong!!!
Happy Birthday Amy 🎉 Too bad you were disappointed by your sandwich 😢Maybe you will find a new best one at The Cake Bake Shop when it opens 😉 Thanks for this update!
Thank goodness they are replacing the boardwalk boards. The entire boardwalk was becoming a giant trip hazard with the old, warped rotting boards. Boardwalk is our home resort, so very happy to see this update.
Yes, I was disappointed in the sandwich also...we were there in Feb..'23...Always at the BWV for the most part....have another ressie for Feb..of 2024....
Were you able to provide feedback about the sandwhich directly to someone? Its the only way to get things changed. As far as boardwalk goes, we have not been there since 2009 and at that time it felt outdated. Lol. Good they are finally getting to it.
I agree with you Paul, in March when we stayed at Boardwalk, I had a Pastrami sandwich at that deli - was pretty good :)...not a favorite spot overall, but that sandwich was pretty good!
What a bummer on the Italian Sub. It was my absolute favorite quick service item anywhere at WDW (Bengal Barbecue, especially the pork belly skewer, is still the best overall).
It’s just a portion of the one parking lot. That lot was mostly valet parking before anyways and some regular parking. There is still another lot on the other side.
Shrinkflation is a tactic that companies use to subtly reduce the size or weight of a product to save money without increasing the price. This is what Disney did to your sandwich.
That sandwich looks like the one from artist’s pallet at Saratoga springs. IOTW typical Disney World garbage. This downfall always happens. Start strong to build a rep then turn to cheap trash to bilk the customer.
Thanks for the updates!
Great video. Thanks for the content. The boardwalk reminds me so much of Wildwood, NJ. Can’t wait to see what comes next!

Try the Italian sandwich at Primo Piatto. I really liked it.

Great video. Thanks. Great idea for a best sandwich at WDW. I look forward to your results.

Can’t wait for this to open. Became a DVC member while cruising on Dream last July and chose this resort as our base. Looks great.
I can't wait for my trip to the boardwalk in January!

The Spicy Italian sandwich at Primo Piatto and Bar Riva is fantastic!

That pastrami looks amazing !!! The winner here is Paul.
Thanks for the video guys, love the "on site" content
Try the Italian Sandwich at Bar Riva in Riviera if you get a chance. I thought it was very tasty.

Did you try asking for pesto Mayo? Just curious if they maybe had some to provide is asked? Great video guys.
Happy Birthday Amy! 🎂
Happy Birthday Amy 🎉
Too bad you were disappointed by your sandwich 😢Maybe you will find a new best one at The Cake Bake Shop when it opens 😉
Thanks for this update!
The Boardwalk DVC gift shop that used to be where the coffee shop is now, did they move that down to the main gift shop?
Yep, The DVC merch is now in the main gift shop.
Looks to me like no change in the Cake Bake Shop since we were there in March. Very odd. Can’t figure out what the deal is there.
Thank goodness they are replacing the boardwalk boards. The entire boardwalk was becoming a giant trip hazard with the old, warped rotting boards. Boardwalk is our home resort, so very happy to see this update.
Hi Amy & Paul. Thx. Our granddaughter's favorite resort. She even likes the way Boardwalk smells. ❤
Sorry about that for sure, Amy. 😔
Thx for this. Hope to see another one soon. ❤
Yes, I was disappointed in the sandwich also...we were there in Feb..'23...Always at the BWV for the most part....have another ressie for Feb..of 2024....

I'm so sad about the sandwich! It must have been a recent change, I had it in July and it was still the tasty sandwich with the pesto.
We also had it in July and it was awesome
We need EV charging stations at all DVC resorts!
Yes!
Boardwalk is my home resort. I have been trying to follow the cake bake shop updates and I also can’t see it opening this year. There’s just no way.
I agree with you Paul, in March when we stayed at Boardwalk, I had a Pastrami sandwich at that deli - was pretty good :)...not a favorite spot overall, but that sandwich was pretty good!
No! Not a disappointing Boardwalk Birthday Sandwich 😞😆
What a bummer on the Italian Sub. It was my absolute favorite quick service item anywhere at WDW (Bengal Barbecue, especially the pork belly skewer, is still the best overall).
Best sandwich is obviously the surf and surf burger at AoA...
Wait...ugh! They messed up that one too...
Where does everyone park given that the lot is closed?
It’s just a portion of the one parking lot. That lot was mostly valet parking before anyways and some regular parking. There is still another lot on the other side.
Probably not considered a sandwich but love the cheeseburger pods at Animal Kingdom! So good.
We were just there and also disappointed by sandwich change :((
Bathroom is going to open soon - Friday at the latest - Lots of leaks this week clear to see where the maintenance fees go.
Shrinkflation is a tactic that companies use to subtly reduce the size or weight of a product to save money without increasing the price. This is what Disney did to your sandwich.
I don't believe the coffee place has a drink refill station though
Gotta go with chicken waffle sandwich at Sleepy Hollow... my oh my.
Time to do something else with the Dance Hall.
They probably won’t change it for a while. It is a popular wedding reception venue, so they have no incentive to make a change.
Lol this the same story every year. Disney does some amazing and then they take it away.

Boardwalk needs to step up the quick serve options. The deli isnt a deli at all. Kinda a joke. Which makes us so sad.
Boardwalk is our home away from home.
That sandwich has about half the meat the other one did!
