With 14 of the 27 bars currently closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, now’s a good time to work up a list of the places you’d like to visit once life resumes some kind of normal activity and in that list of 27 bars compiled by Esquire magazine is none other than Oga’s Cantina at Disney World.

For many, the first memory of a bar is likely Episode IV’s cantina scene—who didn’t want to hang out there? That would explain the constant lines outside Oga’s Cantina, a part of the Star Wars theme park, Galaxy’s Edge. But it is worth the wait to have that proto–bar fantasy fulfilled. There are smoking drinks in neon colors, a starship pilot turned DJ, and—who knows?—Han Solo might just slide in next to you. 351 South Studio Drive, Lake Buena Vista, Florida —Adrienne Westenfeld

We heartily agree – here’s to sharing a cold one the next time we can all get to Batuu.
