Positive aspects of the product (pros): beer selection, food quality Cons: loud spots, bar area crowded
make sure to try the different "beer flights" ... they make excellent appetizers =)
the seating is ample, but be careful if you are seated in the center of the restaurant adjacent to the stage, if a performer comes on, it can get too loud to hear yourself chew. You can definitely hear the entertainment from the nearby rooms, and still carry on conversation.
the 2 outdoor bar areas are wonderful to sit in the florida sun with a few pints, but they can get very difficult to navigate when full of patrons.
overall, the food is well priced, and delicious, and the decor suits me just fine.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): bread pudding Cons: can be crowded on weekends
They could have had me at Guinness on tap, but my gf and I really enjoy this restaurant. We always make sure to set one night of our trip aside to make a visit.
Yes, there is the great music. Yes there is the wonderful dancer. But the food is also realy, really good.
The shepard's pie is a new twist on a traditional dish, the bangers as good as I've had in the UK and the bread pudding is our single favorite food in all of Orlando.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): great food, comfortable seating, decent prices for Disney Cons: Can be pretty loud if you're there at night
One of my favorite restaurants at Walt Disney World. The food is excellent, and while the prices aren't cheap, they're lower than a lot of comparable restaurants on property. The seating is very comfortable and the space is beautiful. The low lighting makes this a really great refuge from the Florida sun too. There is live entertainment here on most night which makes this place a fun place to eat, but it can make it hard to carry on a conversation if you're seated toward the center of the restaurant. I like this place enough that I know I'd eat here (even if the prices stayed the same!) if we had a Raglan Road locally. It doesn't disappoint.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Location, outdoor seating, food choices, beer choices Cons: unfortunately bad service on a not so busy night
We stumbled across Raglan Road on a unplanned trip to Pleasure Island last week, and decided to finally try it out.
We chose to sit outside, and enjoy the atmosphere. At 10pm there was no wait for tables, and our server quickly took drink orders. Unfortunately, that was the only good part of the wait service.
The beer flights are a real hit, and we loved trying those out. We liked sampling the "League of Nations" - really some different flavors there!
For food, the kids stuck with Chicken and fries (chips!) and I was pleasantly surprised that these were real battered chicken - rather than the standard chicken nuggets. Fries were the English "chips" and a definate hit. Our other meals were the Fish and Chips and Steak. Both would have been above average - but they had unfortunately obviously sat for quite a while under heat lamps. We had waited 40 minutes between drinks arriving and our dinners... while we noticed our waitress chatted at the bar. Unfortunately this put a huge damper on our experience - but the atmosphere would be enough to draw us back to give it a second chance.
PS. the hot air balloon can easily be seen from the outdoor seating and adds a nice element to the experience

Positive aspects of the product (pros): warm & inviting atmosphere Cons: none
I liked this restaurant, I thought the atmosphere was very warm. We ate here on a night that they didn't have music but you could tell from the acoustics of the room we were in that it could get quite loud. We had the calamari appetizer which we thought was good, it also came with tempura battered julienne vegetables-yum. We ordered the sirloin with a whiskey glaze which was very subtle and my favorite onion straws. We took desserts with us- I tried Dunbrody's kiss which was a very chocolaty cake that kept my sweet tooth satisfied for a couple of days. All in all a good experience- seemed quiet on the day we were there.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): good fun, fun atmosphere, great service Cons:
We arrived here prior to the entertainment starting, so I can't comment on that. However, we thoroughly enjoyed this meal. We were seated outside, and it was a lovely evening to be eating outside. The only downside was we felt like we were a bit on display as people walked by.
Service was great. We had an excellent server. Food was good and plentiful. We would definitely eat here again.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Great Pub Atmosphere, great music, food & drink excellent Cons: A bit large, be sure to get a good table to view the entertainment, some nooks & crannys do not provide a good view.
One of the best restaurants on the property and a top tier restaurant at moderate prices.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Fish and Chips, decor Cons: not on 2010 dinning plan
Visited September 2009- My husband and I arrived at our hotel early and our room was not ready so we hopped a bus and headed down to Down Town Disney. I was so surprised that it was so quiet. We decided to go to Ragland Road for some Fish and chips. It was very quiet there as well. We had a great waiter from our home state and he let us know that there was live entertainment coming up that Thursday night. The fish and chips were great hot and crisp. My husband tried a beer he had not had before and did not like it so the waiter had no problems switching it out for something he would like. The décor is very nice and the bathroom is huge and clean! We never made it back for the entertainment but I can see that it must be a fun place at night! I am disappointed that the Ragland Road has been dropped from the 2010 dinning plan. Not too many places to eat on the dinning plan for 2010 in Down Town Disney. But I would go back for the Fish and chips!!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Yummy food, great entertainment Cons: Very loud, a little pricey
The food was spectacular, and the entertainment was great. It is VERY loud though, the loudest of everywhere we wait. Don't expect to have much conversation without screaming at each other. We also thought the prices were a bit high if you aren't on the dining plan.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Atmosphere, music, food, THEY HAVE MAGNERS Cons: none
At here for the first time on May 17, 2010. Absolutely loved it! First with the drink selections they serve Magner's Cider here. This is the first place in the US that I have seen this. I have had it quite a bit in some of my trips to the UK. I had a wild mushroom soup of my starter, which was really good. I had the "sod stew" for my main course which again was really good. The meat was just melt in your mouth tender. I had the bread pudding for dessert and it was just amazingly good. I think it is the best bread pudding I have ever had! The other thing here is there was a group playing some traditional Irish music and a lady doing some Irish dances. I will now make this a place to go every trip.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Awesome Food, Great Service, Neat Entertainment Cons: couldn't see the stage (no biggie)
Food was fantastic, Server was very knowledgeable and helpful. All of our entrées were terrific (even the kids Mac and cheese). Make sure you get Ger's Bread & Butter Pudding for dessert. Best bread pudding ever. The only negative (a very small negative) was we couldn't see the stage. When you check in be sure to ask to be able to see the stage. We had to get up and walk a short way to watch the excellent irish dancers. All in all, a great place to eat and a great atmosphere.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Atmosphere, food quality Cons: Prices
My husband and I dined here December 4 with another couple. We were 10 minutes late to our reservation, and had to be at Cirque du Soliel for the 6 pm show. We were seated immediately and greeted by the manager, who asked about my food allergies and helped with the menu. I informed the waitress we were in a bit of a time crunch to make the show, and she assured me we would have plenty of time. I had the steak and my husband had the sausage-stuffed pork. The other couple with us had the Bangers & Booz and a chicken dish. All entrees came with fabulous mashed potatoes, and everyone was very pleased with their meal. The men had fun trying different beers, and the women had the creme brulee tart, which is a cheesecake consistancy. Had we not been on the dining plan, our meal would have cost us $95 plus a tip (just my husband any myself). The other couple's bill was over $60. Unfortunately, we were too early to see the dancers, although we were seated by their table/stage. Overall I was very impressed with the food and service.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): food, service, atmosphere, food... Cons: nothing
We were hesitant to try this restaurant but very glad we did. We had lunch service here on the DDP and it was delicious. Definately try the breaded sausages for an appitizer, especially with Guiness. The entrees were extremely well prepared and the desserts were to dream for. I had a fresh fruit, custard and cake in a jar and it was wonderful. Not heavy like some desserts at WDW. Our waitress was very good and very friendly. Definately going back.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Cons:
Not bad, but not great. Went for dinner and had the calamari appetizer, which was OK. Paddy's Pork was OK but rather dry and the sausage in the middle didn't impress. Pie in the Sky and Fish and Chips were OK, nothing outstanding. Disappointed in the Dumbrody Kiss-- bits of chewy coconut detract from the otherwise good taste. Bread pudding was OK, nothing to rave about. Prices were steep for what it was; we were on free DDP but our companions were not and it was pricey. Entertainment was fun but we made the mistake of accepting a booth near the entrance so missed out on a view, but that was our fault. Overall a disappointment.

Server was very attentive, food was very good, and the music/dancing was a very nice plus. We had no plans to eat here, but decided to give it a try. We were pleasantly suprised. Bangers & Booz, and Paddy's pork were very good. The kids enjoyed their shrimp and mac-n-cheese. I wish we could have had room for dessert. We will most likely return on our next trip.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): atmosphere, entertainment Cons: loud, slow service
Got lucky & had a table by the small stage in the center of the dining room. Really enjoyed the entertainment. Was glad we didn't get put in a booth as we wouldn't have been able to see any of the show. Also liked how they brought all the guests in on the show in clapping & singing along. Restaurant was loud & not just during entertainment. Food was good--loved the Shepard's Pie! DH liked the bread pudding but was so full from dinner he hardly ate much! Service was a bit on the slow side (my water glass was empty most of the meal.)

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Good drinks, fun atmosphere Cons: could be loud
Our group of nine had a very fun, relaxing meal here. The service was wonderful. We were seated away from the stage, so the sound didn't bother us, but when we walked closer towards the stage, you could tell it would be hard to converse if you were close. The menu is different, in a good way. There was something for everyone in our group...and our group ranges from very adventerous eaters to very "safe". The drink menu had a lot of choices, and we enjoyed it. The location from the OKW villa ferry boat drop off to the restaurant could not have been closer. We would definitely return.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Good food all around, friendly staff and entertainment Cons: None
My family and I ate at Raglan Road in February 2012 and had a wonderful meal. My wife and I both had the Salmon of Knowledge, a baked salmon filet topped with smoked salmon and maple glaze. The chefs nailed the right level of doneness on both dishes (I like mine more rare). Our kids ordered the macaroni and cheese (not the orange stuff out of the box) and the Young Shepherd's Pie- both were solid, a couple of notches above the usual Table Service kids' fare.
Service was friendly, both the hosts and waitstaff were accommodating. We were too early to catch the live music, which didn't come on until 7pm. But they did have a brief Irish step dancing interlude on stage during the 6 o'clock hour, which really added to the atmosphere- we all loved it.
I would love to come back without the kids sometime to check out the scene after dark. But as a family, we found Raglan Road to be a very good early dinner spot, with quality food and lively entertainment to keep everybody happy.

We ate here for lunch and it was very good. I had soup and salad which cost $10. I thought it was a great deal. The service was good but I could tell the waitress has many tables assigned to her. I would go back and recommend it to a friend.
