Eat at POP Century on arrival night or head to DTD - The DIS Discussion Forums

buzzrelly · 01-23-2013, 12:44 PM

Hi everyone... We are heading down 4/10. It's me, Dear Mom, DS 11, and DD9. Our plane lands at MCOat 7:30 pm and we are going to take the ME to POP. We are only staying there one night and transferring over to the CR the next am so we won't have our dining plan yet. Last time we did this, we headed to DTD but our plane landed around 6 so it want so bad. I'm guessing we won't even get to Pop until 8:30-9 pm? Should we just stay there and eat at that food court and hang around that resort for the night, or would you take a bus to DTD? Kind of sounds like that might be more of a pain than its worth, although I would LOVE to go eat at Earl of Sandwich or Wolfgang Pucks! What do you all think? I've heard some pretty good things about the food court at POP. Anyone have any favorite items from there? Thanks!

If you are staying at POP and getting in late , I would walk over to AoA and have dinner there. They have a bridge between the 2 resorts that is an easy walk. The food is really good and it is a really nice resort to walk around. Then it is a quick walk back to your room. Hope you enjoy your trip.

I would eat at POP, and if you like ice cream sundaes, they have the best borwnie sundaes EVER!

I agree. You will all be tired from traveling anyway so I would either eat at POP or Art of Animation. They both have great food. That will give you some time to check out all the great things at the resort plus maybe do some swimming too.

If youre getting in at around 8pm, I honestly wouldnt bother going to DTD. Not a chance. Not at that hour. Like the others have suggested, I would just either eat at Pop, or walk over next door to the AoA!!!
