My party of 3 spent $120 at Disney World's Beaches & Cream Soda Shop, and the massive $36 sundae is worth every penny

Beaches & Cream Soda Shop is a retro soda fountain and casual table-service dining location at Disney's Beach Club, a deluxe resort in the Epcot area.

Anyone can visit the resort restaurant — even if you're not staying on the property or visiting the theme parks — and it serves lunch and dinner.

I made an advanced reservation to dine here as the restaurant is quite popular and smaller than some of the other spots at Disney World.

I was greeted by a friendly employee who checked my party in for our reservation.

While we waited for our table to be ready, we peeked outside at Stormalong Bay, the Yacht and Beach Club resorts' 3-acre pool area containing a lazy river, a waterslide, and a sand-bottomed pool.

When I walked into the restaurant, I was amazed by all of the paintings of Mickey Mouse and the rest of his friends.

It felt as though I was perusing the Art of Disney store, which I loved. I'm a big fan of Disney artwork.

It was like I was transported back in time. I particularly liked the jukebox and thought it added to the vintage aesthetic of the restaurant.

Even the employees' uniforms were themed, which I appreciated.

The food menu was extremely limited with mostly sandwiches and sides. But if you like sandwiches, it's the perfect spot for you.

Some of the sandwich offerings include a French dip ($19), cheddar-bacon-ranch chicken ($19), and Reuben ($19).

Although the restaurant is largely known for its sweet treats and ice cream, my party wanted to have the full experience, so we started with some savory menu items.

We ordered the chili-and-cheese tots ($9), which were topped with chili, cheese, sour cream, and green onions. I thought they were delicious, and the ratio of toppings to tots was perfect.

There's also a plant-based version of the chili-and-cheese tots ($9), cheese-and-bacon tots ($9), and plain potato tots ($6).

My sandwich ($14) was delicious and extremely filling. If you're a cheese lover like I am, this is definitely an excellent option.

The tomato soup served on the side was great for dipping. It complemented the sandwich well.

I thought it was a bit pricey for a grilled-cheese sandwich, but it was really tasty, and I knew it'd only be a once-in-a-while treat.

Someone else in my party ordered the French dip, so I was able to try it.

The sandwich had thinly-sliced roast beef, Swiss cheese, and crispy fried onions on a toasted French roll, and it was served with au jus.

This was my first time eating this kind of sandwich, and I was pleasantly surprised by how good the roast beef was. I'm not typically the biggest fan, but it was extremely flavorful.

The Kitchen Sink sundae ($36) was the main event of the meal. We ordered the Chocolate Lover's version, which featured chocolate ice cream, cookies-and-cream ice cream, vanilla ice cream, brownies, Milky Way pieces, Oreos, chocolate sauce, sprinkles, chocolate shavings, and chocolate chips.

This was worth the price as it was huge and designed to serve four people. There are also original and Neapolitan versions with different ice-cream flavors and toppings.

I didn't mind spending the money because it was a whole experience. It was really fun having the server announce to the entire restaurant that our table was trying to defeat the Kitchen Sink while the lights in the restaurant flashed.

My party of three couldn't quite finish it, but we made a decent dent.

The Kitchen Sink is definitely one of my favorite ice-cream sundaes on the property.

For three adults, with my 10% annual-passholder discount, the bill came out to $118 after tip.

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at Beaches & Cream, but I'd probably only visit again for the Kitchen Sink sundae or another ice-cream dish. The entrée prices were a little too high for classic diner sandwiches.

If you've never dined here, I think it's worth making a reservation during your next trip to Disney World to try the Kitchen Sink.
