We’re back on Batuu
and in its charming village, Black Spire Outpost, this time for an Annual Passholder preview. And when we stopped into Oga’s Cantina for our reservation this morning, we discovered a couple of new (and updated) options on the menu!
First, we couldn’t help but notice a massive (truly!) addition: the Rancor Beer Flight has been added to the Walt Disney World Oga’s menu! When we first visited Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge earlier this month (see our Oga’s visit here!), the Flight was missing from the menu with citizens of Batuu (aka Cast Members!) saying it was expected before the land officially opens August 29th.
And now it’s here! We tried the Rancor Beer Flight at Disneyland’s Oga’s (we HAD to!) where it costs $75 for a flight of the Cantina’s four beers served in Rancor teeth on a board designed to hold them. The only change to the Flight at Disney World? It’s $10 more expensive.
See our FULL review of Oga’s Cantina in Disneyland Park here and a look at what was new on our first visit to Disney World’s Oga’s here!
That’s right: you’ll hand over $85 for your board, its four (admittedly cool!) tooth cups, and the beer samples. We know that’s a little steep for most guests, but for a conversation piece that you can really use, it might be a must-have for some fans!
But the Rancor Beer Flight wasn’t the only new addition to Oga’s playful menu: Batuu Bits have got a new twist at Walt Disney World!
Yup, that’s a bowl of super-garlicky Chermoula Dip, and when we saw this on the menu, we had to have it!
Disneyland’s version of Batuu Bits includes the Bits but not the dip (we’ll check on this to see if they update it!), and that’s a bummer because this dip of garlic, spices, and capers is crazy flavorful. Such a treat!
To dip in the chermoula: a whole bunch of stuff! We spotted lots of fried, crispy vegetables including carrots and green beans. (Think potato chips but also make it green beans and carrots.)
The fried lotus root was our least favorite dipper; it was a little tough for us, although the light spices on them were tasty.
Also joining the savory crowd: little chocolate meringues. These left us humming “one of these things is not like the other,” so while they’re fun and tasty, we don’t get it.
A surprise hit (at least for us) was the fried seaweed. It was basically just a salty chip, and with the chermoula, you’re not getting a lot of seaweed flavor.
Overall we were impressed by the upgraded Batuu Bits (even more so because they still cost the same as the plain Disneyland version: $8!). We’re anxious to see if Oga’s Cantina will step a little more fully into the food game (they still offer two options for breakfast — Rising Moons Overnight Oats and the Mustafarian Lava Roll), but even if Batuu Bits remain the only late-morning to Cantina closing snack on the menu, these are a fun and flavorful option!

Will you dunk some lotus root chips into chermoula dip at Oga’s Cantina? Let us know in the comments!
DebC says
Sorry, but that green stuff in the bowl looks a lot like the stuff I cleaned after my cat this morning. I’m going to save a whole bunch of money at WDW not eating or drinking stuff.
Welsh Dragon says
The seaweed looks like Welsh laverbread to me. Cultural appropriation!?
Kate says
Oh god the tiny holes in the lotus pod aaaarrrrggggh!!!
Elaine says
I have only had the version at Disneyland’s Oga’s Cantina, and the only thing I liked out of the “bits” were the wasabi peas. I think I will sneak a Ronto wrap in with me the next time I visit. 🙂 But I like that they have some different versions at each park. I can’t wait to see Batuu @ WDW in a couple of weeks.
DFB Sarah says
Have fun, Elaine!
OrangeBlossom says
We have 9:10 reservations for Sep. 18! What is the Mustafarian Lava Roll? Cinnamon type roll??? Hubby and I are also getting drinks since we would have been in the park by 6 am … and it’s 5’oclock somewhere, eh?
Jayne says
Rancor Beer Flight is another I’ve struck off my list.
So far, due to my overall frustration with Disney raising prices on the things at WDW vs DL, I’ve cut 3 lightsabers, one droid, a beer flight, and everyone is down to ONE drink at Oga’s. I had planned on trying out Ronto Roasters but will probably only do one meal at Docking Bay 7. I will not be purchasing the special coke bottles as we mainly stick to water that’s free. The reviews of the blue milk and green milk have pushed me away from those.
I will probably get a pin and a crystal fox stuffie if I can find one. If not, I’m in for one stuffed Tauntaun.
I’m even cutting back the time I expected to spend there.

We are so excited since we scored a ressie to Oga’s Cantina! We will be there celebrating my milestone birthday in 20 days!
DFB Sarah says
OrangeBlossom, the Mustafarian Lava Roll is shaped like a cinnamon roll with a chocolate mousse-like filling rather than cinnamon! You can check it out here!!
Nikki B. says
I went yesterday, 8/21 for the Passholder Preview.
Hubby and I got this, and the snack mix was entirely too spicy for me. Maybe too much seasoning?
Hubby likes spicy but wasn’t spicy enough for him. He did say the dip was really good though.
Kevin says
I would really hate to mistake the meringue has something that was intended to be dipped into the chermoula XD.
Danielle says
Is the Blue Bantha drink the only drink served with a cookie or any other food? We have a trip scheduled for Thanksgiving and after checking multiple times daily for a reservation, scored a 6:50pm reservation! My 7 year old Son will be with us and has no. Idea thus far!
DFB Sarah says
Danielle, the Bloody Rancor comes with a meringue rancor bone, and Oga’s Obsession is a non-alcoholic “provision” (Radian Ration is the alcoholic version) that’s basically jello with popping candy on top. If you read our Oga’s review from Disneyland, you’ll be able to see the options I’ve mentioned (and which drinks come with fruity garnishes, too).
Pam says
We just had this 2 days ago. It was fantastic! I am now looking up how to make Chermoula dip. The waitress said that it is a Moroccan salsa. Yum!
