[Jonjo]

Chessy town council has stamped and approved the plans for an Earl of Sandwich counter service restaurant in Disney Village. Yes, the rumours were true and all the plans and concepts are out…!

If you thought Starbucks changed the vibe of Disney Village or at least gave it a fresh kick, this new British-themed sandwich shop should do the same ten times over.



This will make an alternative to McDonald’s for a quick bite of lunch, and the Art Deco style building looks nice as well, with a location next to the lake.

Yep, pretty much like a Subway.

They have one at Downtown Disney at WDW.

Will be interesting to see if it's as good as it's Orlando equivalent as dining at DLRP pales in comparison to WDW for the most part

I bet it won't be as cheap as the one in DTD or as well organised!

[disney_princess_85]

Fantastic news! :yay:

Having queued there for over 30 mins that thought fills me with horror.

I really wouldn't compare EOS with Subway. The sandwiches at EOS seem more freshly made than the slapped together cold-cut travesties that you typically get at Subway. I personally look forward to an EOS sandwich (and not just because it is at WDW), while I never remember getting excited for a Subway sandwich.

That's great news! :)

Well apparently the fences went up in February and then came back down, but are due to go back up soon and the restaurant is scheduled to open in December 2010. :)

[Ware Bears]

Thanks for the update, Jill, I'm glad this is opening at DLP, it will make a nice alternative for lunch or dinner.

That is soooo awesome!!!:cheer2::cheer2: We love Earl of Sandwich and will be visiting DLP for the first time in April 2011.....sounds like EOS will be open by then.....I am a store manager for McDonalds so eating that on vacation does not appeal to me at all!!

[Natasha&Matt]

:lovestruc That is great news :thumbsup2 Love Earl of Sandwich so might be time for another trip at DLRP next year ;)

It's definitely NOT like Subway. :thumbsup2

[adr2.8i]

well thank goodness for that!!

i will never ever set foot in another Subway again!
(if there was an emotion for sick then i would use it here)!

[zinderella]

great news, anything that adds to the Village has to be a good thing. Hope it is not too expensive tho'!

[ExpatDisneyLover]

:cheer2:Yay! I am happy there will be another option at the Village. I was unwilling to wait in the massive lines at Mcdonalds on my last trip.

[jillrobinson]

Actually I like Subway well it's better than Tesco sandwiches,
but I have looked on the Earl of Sandwich website and I definately think they're in a different league. :)

[poppyolivia]

well considering I love subway, I am going to really love this place!:dance3::cheer2:..thank you so much for the info!!!.....haven't been reading up but will...but in the mean time...when will it be open?:rotfl:

Dash it says end of 2010..never mind will catch it next year!

[jillrobinson]

never mind will catch it next year!

You going back then. :rotfl:

[Kittina]

never say never lol

[ukstitch]

I have to admit - I've taken a look at the menu and I'm disappointed to see that over the roughly 15 sandwiches, all but 2 have some form of cheese in. Considering I don't like cheese, this rules out an awful lot of sandwiches for me instantly :rolleyes:

I would have hoped for somewhere that specialises in sandwiches,they would have smade their menu a little more varied...

[daiseyirl]

Will they not make to order, i luv cheese but i try to avoid it as much as i can ,not good for my waistline:rotfl:
