These latest photos from the Regal Eagle Smokehouse show progress is moving rapidly on building the smoker area at the front of the restaurant.

The concept art above shows the smoker surrounded by seating and the new outdoor bar area.

While no opening date has yet been given, it is expected to be within the next couple of months. The new BBQ restaurant replaces the Liberty Inn.

I came into this thread to say the same thing. They are now breaking the smoking rules. Move it outside.

I guess they're not actually refurbing the Epcot torches but getting ready to move them outside the park.

It is outside ! ;)
"Regal Eagle" is that the for-sure name?

Sounds both dumb, and tone deaf to the history of the USA. It means "Royal Eagle".

A great food/drink concept though. I'm sure, other than the name this will be a winner in every way.

You're getting a rhyme and you're gonna like it, or, I swear, I'll make it a pun!! -Disney Management.

Actually, Disney forgot a "B" on the announcement and ordering of signage.
It was supposed to be "Regal Beagle" ;)

Yeah ... I was trying to avoid the Three's Company references 😂

My chief memory of that show is that although it was somewhat popular the critical consensus at the time was, "This is the worst, dumbest sitcom ever made."

And Disney goes out of it's way to remind people of it. Don't tell me ... it was an ABC show?
