We didn’t get a chance to try solid foods here, but the Batuu Bits looked very interesting-a delightful mix of chips and crackers and nuts but fittingly eccentric looking. Oga also has a selection of craft beers brewed by some local well known purveyors, and a couple of wine selections for those who aren’t cocktail sippers. The same goes for the Cliff Dweller, which is kid-friendly (non-alcoholic) and is offered in a pretty adorable Porg mug. The Yub Nub is a non-surprisingly sweet rum drink, and it comes in a cool souvenir mug (thought guests can purchase the drink without the mug). If you’re not a person who likes, say, gin, this is probably not the drink for you. The Jedi Mind Trick was a pretty blue, but it was too herbal for my own liking. This bourbon-based cocktail comes in a relatively small glass, but it actually has a nice bite to it and a good depth of flavor, and there’s a little more liquid in the glass than first appears. Personally, the “Jet Juice” was my favorite. This is a cavern that has both lavish and scruffy qualities, and just being in the space is exciting.īack to the drinks… The menu offers a nice variety of craft cocktails-most of them on the very sweet side of the drinking palate. The light fixtures over the large group tables are exquisitely detailed. Cannisters and jars full of exotic elixirs are scattered about. There are a couple of aquariums with a strange toad-like creature in each. The tap heads for some of the pre-mixed cocktails are IG-88 assassin droid heads. Like everything else in Batuu, there is an almost overwhelming amount of detail throughout the interiors. Layout aside, there is plenty to study in the cantina of Oga Garra, a mysterious Blutopian alien about whom little is known. In between, a series of standing bars allows capacity for the in-betweens-medium-sized groups or singles and couples. Around the perimeter, several recessed booths offer spaces for larger groups, as well as nice angles for people watching. The bartenders-many of whom are deeply in some sort of character-serve a fascinating collection of cocktails and non-alcoholic drinks and snacks. A sweeping oval bar divides the round room in two, with plenty of eye candy and theming bits around the central bar itself. Make it inside, though, and guests will find a sumptuously decorated bar that feels both technologically opulent and intimately seedy at the same time. Even then, they are likely to be placed into a virtual queue that will page them back when it’s near time for them to enter. During the little remaining reservations-only period, guests who want to check out Oga’s will need to head there first (and ideally be at the front of the queuing crowd entering Galaxy’s Edge during the start of the time block). Oga’s Cantina is a high demand, low capacity bar that echoes some of the vibes of Mos Eisley Cantina, but with more concoctions, less bands, and plenty of wait. Naturally, we’re kicking it off with the watering hole that is an attraction in and of itself. It’s time to explore the eats and drinks of Galaxy’s Edge! Oga’s Cantina Each food and beverage spot has some sort of draw or attraction to offer, and today, we’re going to look at each one. In any case, with all these visitors and even more to come starting next Monday, a planet like this certainly needs to feed its guests, and to that end, the Black Spire Outpost has plenty of great refreshments and nutrition to offer. Or maybe it’s just a place people visit because it’s so damn beautiful. After a brief interlude of Knott’s and artsy updates, we’re back at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, for another in-depth look at some of the features and offerings of Batuu, that former interstellar hub that has become an off-the-beaten-route haven for adventurers and smugglers and those who don’t wish to be found. Bright suns! Or Rising Moons! Or… well, I guess it depends on what time you’re reading this.
