I'm putting together our December plan and I had a really hard time picking out our table service meals. Now that, the table service plan is finished (I think :rolleyes: ) I'm working on a plan for counter service meals in the parks. Granted this can be much more flexible than the TS plan is (thankfully :p )

So, what are your favorite counter service restaurants in the parks???
 
In MK it's Columbia Harbor House-great fish and chicken.

Epcot is Tangerine Cafe at Morroco.

no real favorites at the other 2 parks.
 
MK: Columbia Harbor House
Epcot: Tangierine Cafe
MGM: None! I have never had a good CS meal here.
AK: Tusker House
DTD: Wolfgang Puck Express (Best CS in all the World!)
 


I really like the quick service places in both Morocco and China. I'm also a HUGE fan of Starring Roles in the Studios.
 
MK-Pecos Bills, Cosmic Rays and Caseys (will be trying CHH next month)
EP- Cantina, Yakitori House,the Land
MGM-ABC commisary,pizza planet
AK-we normally just get turkey legs here, they are great and huge
 


I was really impressed with the variety and quality of the food court at The Land (which is now the waiting room for Soarin).

Fish & Chips in Epcot is still my favorite though.
 
Our first meal at MK every trip is at Pecos Bill's. It has one of those great burger fixin's bars! One hint: When you are looking for a place to sit, head to the right after you finish topping your burger ( :) ) and go down the hallway. You'll pass restrooms on your left, and then go into the first seating area on your left. It's a dimly lit, relatively quiet spot with lots of great "western" theming. It's our place that tells us "We're here!!!!" I think a lot of people automatically pick the more obvious seating areas, and this one is a great respite from the heat of the day.

We have a number of counter service stops that we make on nearly every trip.
MK - Cosmic Rays for the large variety and fixings bar and Pecos Bills.

MGM - ABC Commissary is the best we been to in this park. Large variety again.

EPCOT - Try snacking around the world (and drinking if just adults) by grabbing a small items from the different countries counter service and share it in your group.

Animal Kingdom - Tusker House

Have fun.
 
MK: Harbor House/Caseys/Cosmic Rays (NOT Noodle Station)
E:Walk to Beaches and Cream
MGM: Walk to Beaches/cream
AK: Tusker House
 
Cosmic Rays serves an excellent grilled chicken sandwich which we top with mushrooms and grilled onions. :rolleyes1
 
My favs are:

MK--Columbia Harbor House
Epcot--No real favorite but enjoy snacking around the World Showcase!
MGM--Haven't found it yet!
AK--Flame Tree
 
Thanks for all the great suggestions. We will likely split up our credits so that we can enjoy several of the restaurants each day :flower:
 
MK - Tie between Pecos bill(love the fixin Bar) & Cosmic Rays
Epcot - Food Court in the Land, Fish & chips with a bass ale while listening to the band in England
MGM - Not sure

Disney Quest - food court is really good the have something for everyone & the Cheesecake factory!!!!
 
MK - El Pirata y El Perico

MK: Pecos Bill's -- Dh gets a double cheeseburger and fries while I get a turkey leg from outside and we share!!
