Chez Alcatraz

While at Universal I Googled «Best Drinks at Universal» and Chez Alcatraz’s Frozen Mojito came up on multiple lists, so naturally I had to try it!
Google certainly did not lead me astray! It was wonderful and refreshing on a day where it was 90+ degrees outside and the sun was blaring down. At $ 9.50, it didn’t break the bank (for amusement park prices) and we got to keep the plastic souvenir glasses.
I’ve never actually had a frozen mojito before, so I’ve got nothing to compare it to, but it sure hit the spot and I’d definitely come back again! It’s located in fake San Francisco right next to the big shark.

Great little spot to hide away from the sun and the crowds and get a nice snack and delicious drink. It is themed after the old Jaws area, with the hanging Jaws photo op right next door. Located across from the London façade of the Diagonal Alley/​Wizarding World of Harry Potter, this is just a small outdoor bar, but it has seats! We stopped in on a Friday during Spring break and ordered the Margherita Flatbread, the Bruce (margarita) and the Shark Attack (fruity drink). Drinks were delicious, bartender was friendly and sociable, and Flatbread hit the spot. Our total was about $ 30, but worth it. I’m sort of hesitant to blab about this find, as I’ll definitely be making it a required stop whenever I’m at Universal.

This is the only full service outdoor bar inside the theme parks at Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure. It is located in the San Francisco area of USF.
Although it has limited hours of service, when it is open it’s a fun place to stop by. It offers all your usual cocktails and beers. It’s also a fun spot for people-​watching.
If Finnegan’s is a bit too busy, this a good alternative.
