  The lemonade frozen treat was delicious and exactly what I needed on a hot day. The attitude, however, was not. From the second we walked up the staff looked like they had never been more burdened to serve us. All we ordered was the lemonade and a water and you would’ve thought we killed their dog with the look on their face. Not to mention when we very politely asked if they had a military discount we were met with an eye roll and a short “no.”. Not “no, sorry” not “unfortunately we do not.” Just a “no.” As Disney annual pass holders we have never dealt with such horrible attitudes for no reason and we will absolutely not be renewing this coming year. Disney brings in so much profit the least they can do is hire people who actually want to work there. Or better yet, fire the ones who show they don’t want to be there.

  Great drinks! Best staff ever. Really active and helpful manager (red hair guy) keeping things moving. I know it's Disney but blown away.

  One of our favorite dri k stops in Animal Kingdom. The bartenders are always super nice, and since this is a full bar they can make you anything you want! They also have a nice selection of beers, including some seasonal varieties. We highly recommend Thisrty River.

  The Thirsty River Bar helped make a great day! It was our first visit to Disney, we were three days in, and our kids were 4 and 5 and completely overwhelmed with every single experience. We'd been waiting for the parade to start and it started to rain. Our kids were miserable and crying. We were about to attempt to leave the park when the parade blocked us from doing so. My husband spotted the Thirsty River Bar and came back with two of the most refreshing and amazing frozen drinks. Our kids were then mesmerized by the engaging parade and we were all smiling by the time we left the park. It's a great pit-stop in Animal Kingdom.
