Review: We’re Trying the Chocolatti Drink at the Reopened Earl of Sandwich in Disney World
Disney Springs has started its phased reopening today, with select third-party restaurant and retail locations welcoming back guests.
Earl of Sandwich
Disney Springs has started to reopen with additional health and safety measures in place. And, while not all locations have resumed operations, Earl of Sandwich has officially reopened. Our team headed out to get a feel for how things are going around Disney Springs — so, let’s take a peek inside Earl of Sandwich!
Last week, we learned that Earl of Sandwich would be reopening their doors on May 20th. So, we stopped by to see how things look inside one of our favorite sandwich shops. Much of these protocols were present at other counter service dining locations. Our first encounter with Earl included ground markers outside in case they needed to start an outdoor queue, but we were able to head right inside!

Menu
Like other Disney Springs dining locations, Earl of Sandwich implemented disposable paper menus.

Their menu looked largely the same with many of our favorites available for purchase! Their disposable menus also provided information about what your Disney Dining Plan credits would get you.

Service
Like other locations today at Disney Springs, floor markers were present to remind guests to stand six feet apart while in line.

We saw employees wearing masks as well as gloves. Similar to our experience at Chicken Guy!, guests were not allowed to approach the counter where you would normally grab cup lids, napkins, and utensils. An employee was ready to grab whatever you needed for you!

This included filling and refilling whatever fountain drinks you need.

There was hand sanitizer ready and available for customers to use.

Like other dining locations, indoor, as well as outdoor tables, were spread out to meet physical distancing guidelines.

Eats (or rather, drinks!)
Obviously, we had to give something a try while we visited Earl! We picked up the new-to-us Chocolatti beverage, which is blended Ghirardelli chocolate topped with sea salt, whipped cream, and chocolate sprinkles. Essentially a chocolate lover’s dream, or so we thought!

While we found the drink to be a cool and refreshing sip on a hot Florida afternoon, we wished the chocolate flavor was more pronounced. Especially when you include Ghirardelli as your main ingredient, we want to taste ALL that chocolatey goodness!

Payment
The plexiglass screen guards were present at the registers for Earl of Sandwich. Other than that, the payment process was very familiar and not as out of the ordinary to us. At this time, they are still accepting cash as a method of payment.
