50s Prime Time Cafe
I was so excited for this one as we love Prime Time! I admit though, I was still pretty full from that huge burger at Sci-Fi lunchtime - but there was no way I was going to miss out on 50s!
There always seems to be a rather long wait here, so we checked in and headed to the bar to order some drinks. I couldn't find a cocktail menu on the bar as it was packed with people ordering drinks and eating, so I ordered a beer for DF and the only cocktail I knew for sure they sold, which of course is the Glowtini
We'd almost finished them by the time we got called, and I think this was one of the longest waits we had. The only thing I can say is, I wish we'd gotten a livelier server. Twice we've gotten really nice servers, but no antics
It's still fun watching the others though, and I love the theming and the food!
Cute 'kitchen' tables
Cute theming!
We more or less knew what we were going to order: We ordered the onion rings to share to start with.
Beer Battered Onion Rings - served with Horseradish sauce
We'd eaten quite a few already!
Onion Rings
I think we were regretting this as soon as we got it - the onion rings were delicious as we couldn't stop eating them! There were quite a few on the plate, and they were big as well. The horseradish dip that came with them was very mild for horseradish, which was great for me as I don't really like horseradish - but anyone who does might be disappointed. It was just enough to give them that extra flavour. We both looked at each other after we were done and we knew the other was thinking we shouldn't have got an appetizer!
For mains, we both ordered the
Mom's Old Fashioned Pot Roast - Slow cooked 'til fork tender, served with mashed potatoes, carrots, celery and onions. I got this last year whilst Els got the steak, and whilst his was good, we both agreed mine was the best.
Pot Roast
LOTS of meat!
This was no less tastier than last year! Definitely order this! There is soooo much meat, I swear this was all meat with a spoonful of mash! The meat is so tender and practically hasn't got any fat. I'm quite fussy with fat and don't like it on my plate at all. Despite being fit to burst, I believe we ate it all!
Dessert next, and we both declared we were too full for dessert - how about a milkshake instead? We were given the dessert menu anyway and I was very pleased to note we got the viewfinders! We didn't get these last year, so photos were called for:
Choosing a dessert
Milkshake please!
I think Els ordered a chocolate milkshake, whilst I had to try the PB & Jelly milkshake. They came and they were huge! There was enough shake in that thing to make 2 full large glasses!
Almost lost my spoon!
PB & Jelly!
Milkshake!
The milkshakes are sooo good here! The PB&J may sound weird, but it really is very nice! It tastes like peanut butter cups
I think I got way to greedy here, and DF loves to recall this story to our friends. After the lunch we had, and then gorging ourselves at 50s, the milkshake was the final straw... it was so good I was drinking it quite quickly, before something came over me and we had to leave NOW or I was going to be ill. I made DF go pay whilst I ran over to the bathroom, but it was packed so I just splashed some water on my face and went back outside for some fresh air. I was so scared I'd be sick in the middle of the restaurant and I could just smell everyone's food. Despite us planning to stay here til closing, I told Els I had to leave the park immediately or I'd be sick. He loves telling the story of how I ate so much I was sick and had to leave DHS
I couldn't stand the smell of peanut butter for days
H RATING: 8/10
E RATING: 8/10
WOULD WE EAT HERE AGAIN? Yes - I'd just eat less next time! We both really like the theming and food, it's nice to have some 'home cooked' food after a lot of fried stuff and burgers. I'm looking forward to taking my parents here, I think they'll like it!
You reminded me of how much I loved the pot roast and the viewfinders 
DF and I are going there for the first time this year on our Disneymoon and I'm so excited !
And congrats on your engagement!
