Most solos choose to sit at the bar, but if you want to "experience" the servers and their antics with Guests, you really should sit at a table in the dining area.
Your "personal" experience there may be lacking a bit by not having a dining companion, but you will probably still get involved in what is going on with others in the room. If you have a great server (some are better and more into their role than others), it can be great fun.
I dined at 50 Prime time cafe solo last summer and it was real fun. Ernie was my cousin and he really brightened up my day after a long hot day at Disney.
I ordered the pot roast and it was great.
I've been several times solo, and it's always fun. If the people in your room aren't much fun, there's always the TV. I'd never sit at the bar and miss the fun of the dining room!!!!
Once I scored a free shrimp cocktail - the people beside me were on the Dining Plan, and they had ordered appetizers they couldn't eat. Thanks, cousins!!!
I've never eaten there solo, but we've had solo eaters in our section (room) with us and they definitely seemed to be having a great time....
as someone said, it depends on how 'active' a server you have.....we always request that they try to put us with the more fun servers....
on the two occassions that i can think of that we had solos in our room, the servers were hysterical with them....with the whole room for that matter....also both times we had good people at all the tables, which also makes it better....everyone was really into it, so it was very funny........
i think that the servers understand that anyone eating there solo is looking for one of those fun experiences.....otherwise they would have gone somewhere else.....
Well, you talked me into it. I'm booked for dinner at Prime Time, and also got an 8am at Breakfastosaurus. When I called for Prime Time, I asked for 7pm, and she said "I can't do that, but I do have 705pm". Well, ok lady... we'll do it your way.
I've eaten at prime time solo---My auntie put a bib on me cuz I was reading---Last time in my room I cheated with some of my cousins working on the Movie Quiz---How much fun, and we tried so hard not to get caught.
Donald's is great fun too.
Solo, Ive been to CRT, CP, LeCellier, Rose and Crown, Garden Grill, Liberty Tree--Another great charactor meal, Brown Derby, Primetime, Hollywood and Vine---I love eating in the restaurants and have't had a problem at all being a solo.
