Disney Cruise Line’s newest ship, the Disney Destiny, will launch later this month with a unique Pirates of the Caribbean-inspired pub: Cask & Cannon. Disney shared a first look inside the bar. Cask & Cannon Pirates of the Caribbean Bar A nostalgic salute to the beloved Disney Parks attractions from around the world, this eclectic yet cozy lounge is outfitted with a mismatched collection of “acquired” (AKA pillaged and plundered) furnishings and antiques, presumably procured during the pirates’ countless voyages. From treasure maps and fishing nets to barrel stools, rum bottles, and skull-and-crossbones insignias, nautical motifs and pirate iconography have been thoughtfully integrated into the design. The interior of the venue is decked out in wooden planks — evoking the interior of a sea-worn ship — and a trove of Easter Eggs honor both the highly successful film franchise and the original attractions’ famous lore. The wooden carvings framing the portholes appear to be charred, just like the attractions’ burning village scene and distinctive lanterns are reminiscent of the namesake attraction in Disneyland Paris. There is even a set of 13 drawers filled with treasure maps, each labeled with different scenes representing the global parks and attractions, including The Ghostly Grotto, Port Royale, Talking Skull Bay, Blue Bayou, and Treasure Cove. Meanwhile, the stacked treasure chests that make up the bar front nod to the treasure rooms and Captain’s Quarters in the films. Evenings of revelry at Cask & Cannon include a menu fit for even the most seasoned swashbucklers, offering rare, specialty and vintage rums as well as a not-so-secret selection of specially developed “bootlegged” brews. Stay tuned for our coverage of the Cask & Cannon and more on the Disney Destiny.
