Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge has been extremely popular at Walt Disney World since it opened at Disney's Hollywood Studios in 2019. One of our favorite spots in this new area is Oga's Cantina, a very popular lounge where you can get all kinds of fun drinks and take in the atmosphere of Batuu's hot spot.
Space inside Oga's is limited so advance reservations are highly recommend and can be made up to 60 days in advance. Even with an advance reservation, be prepared to wait in line outside a bit before being let in. Oga's Cantina is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner and reservations are recommended for all meal periods.
The small location offers a wide variety of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails that are out of this world. They also offer a very limited selection of bar bites. The snacks aren't enough for a meal but they are a tasty option if you need something to eat while you enjoy your cocktails.

There are also souvenir mugs available that are definitely adorable but they will be a hit to the wallet if you want to purchase them with their respective drinks. If you ask the Cast Member, you may be able to order the drink without actually purchasing the souvenir mug. It's worth asking if you want to try the drink but you don't want the souvenir mug. |

If you are a smaller party, be prepared to be seated with other parties at a table or standing with other parties at a high top table. With limited space, no seat goes empty here for long. In fact, most of the Cantina is standing room only at high top tables or the bar. There are a few booths in the lounge so if you really want to sit, you can request to wait for a table but know that it's not guaranteed and you may have a longer wait. It definitely gives it that "space bar" type vibe. Due to the location's popularity, your visit to Oga's is limited to 45 minutes per party.
I've tried numerous cocktails at Oga's over the years and there are definitely some drinks that stand out more than others. My absolute favorite is the Jedi Mind Trick. I order this drink time and time again and it never disappoints. Another fun drink is the Fuzzy Tauntaun. It's not my favorite on the menu but it's a must try for the unique 'Buzz Button Tingling' foam.

The drinks at Oga's have so many fun names that it can be hard to choose! There's the Bloody Rancor, T-16 Skyhopper, and the Bespin Fizz to name a few. I recommend trying a few drinks (with and without alcohol) on your visit to find your favorite.

Bespin Fizz: Bacardi Superior Rum, Yuzu Puree, Pomegranate Juice, White Cranberry Juice, and a Cloud Swirl |

Bloody Rancor: Tito's Handmade Vodka, Ancho Reyes Chile Liqueur, Spicy Bloody Mary Mix, Rancor Bone |
