We try to do the Wicked Winedown at the Villains Lair when we are here! We were greeted by an enthusiastic person Scooter, who was helpful and friendly with plenty of energy! His personality set the tone for rest of the night for us! Our server Dave was polite, friendly and helpful as well! The food was delicious! Watching the fireworks always a good time. Can’t wait to come back again. We have done this at least four times if not more hard to remember. As long as DVC hosts it we will enjoy it! Thanks for another good night! Included some pictures of our food and drinks!

Private bar for DVC members and guests of members. Perfect for viewing the Magic Kingdom fireworks show. I really like that they will reserve your table so you can go and watch the fireworks and then come back in. A little pricey but you're paying for the view.

Returning for the first time since COVID, renamed and rethemed. This Evil Lair, nay The Villain's Lair is a great place to 1) see the MK fireworks 2) Have an Villainous Beverage 3) Enjoy a giant hot Bavarian pretzel and 4) share a delicious slice of Chocolate Seven "Lair" cake. Drinks and food are pricey reaching 20 plus for some signature alcoholic drinks. But the view and the Venue make a special outing worth it! Especially if you are staying at Bay Lake Tower!

We did the Wicked Wind down. The lounge is not large so reservations are encouraged. There were 3 of us so we got 3 appetizers. Honestly it was enough food to double as dinner. It was all good. The drinks were amazing, and that view was something special. I can't remember the last Disney fireworks show I wasn't competing with screens and kids on shoulders to see. The staff was attentive. This was an amazing experience!

Amazing views and delicious drinks. We loved the cake. Though the flatbread and sliders weren’t impressive they were good. Nice atmosphere and extra touches throughout.

Spectacular views of the fireworks over Disney. Members only location. Large outside deck area for conversations and views. The inside is elegant and seats a smaller amount of people. Large bar and menu for delicious decadents. Fun place to enjoy and unwind after a fun filled day in the parks.

We had heard of the Top of the World Lounge and wanted to give it a shot. We decided to splurge for the Wicked Wind Down and it was a great choice, when we finally got there. Luckily, we built in extra travel time because it was a mad house. Backup at the monorail from the Polynesian, which led to a huge backup waiting for the elevator to go to the lobby - because you need to go to the North elevator to check in and be scanned up to the 16th floor. We took the stairs down (much quicker) only to find that 1 of the 3 elevators was running. Once we finally made it to the lounge, things improved immediately. They were able to accommodate our larger than standard party and gave us great seats together by one of the windows. Our waitress was awesome and explained all of our options for food and drinks. She even brought our drinks out to the terrace while the fireworks were going. The food was fantastic. We had the charcuterie board, the pork belly sliders, the shrimp and the hummus and all were very good. Two of the kids with us had the pretzel which was also good and I really enjoyed the spicy mustard that came with it when I stole a piece. The capper for the night was the 7 layer cake. OMG, it was delicious and I could eat it every day. Overall, a super fun and tasty experience that I would be glad to do again!
