It still rules out breakfast and lunch if you don't have a park pass reservation there. A big negative imo.
I wish they would adjust hopping rules to allow for lunch at least...

One thing that I did like about BW this past week was having both the Boardwalk Bakery and the Belle Vue Lounge to get breakfast from, or I could get to-go from the TS there (that my mind has drawn a blank on because I'm having a rough friday lol). The lounge was super quick with really big muffins and stuff to go (or you could eat there) with coffee and stuff to drink, and were super tasty; the online menu is accurate with what they serve. Mobile order at Boardwalk Bakery was also very quick, and if the weather is nice you can sit outside on the boardwalk which is nice, my youngest would have loved to be able to run around after finishing her breakfast. It was rainy and cold, and I didn't have my kids with me (and they're older now), but I kept having that thought while waiting for our food. I've stayed at YC many times since reopening, and while it's not the most amazing place ever for QS you should also remember that you can do a to-go order from Ale & Compass which is really good especially for breakfast if you plan ahead. We put in our order as soon as they opened, and my husband would go grab the food while I got ready, he would push the "I'm here prepare my food" button while still in the room so he didn't have to wait as long.
The Epcot resort area is my absolute favorite since it's so close to two parks, you can walk, take a boat, or if you're feeling like it take the skyliner (like if I'm at HS or Epcot and want to hop to the other, just get on the skyliner....and stop by Riviera for a coffee). It's so easy to go to other resorts and eat, and if you have park hoppers you can easily pop in to Epcot for dinner.
We got it all the time, breakfast and dinner, back when they had more limited hours it was a God send since the QS had more limited options (and I don't always want a sandwich). A lot of the deluxe resorts have a TS restaurant that does to-go, so far I've done Olivia's, Kona, Ale & Compass, and Trattoria al Forno (that's the name of the place I couldn't think of lol). Super easy, and I prefer it sometimes because they apply my AP discount. A quick search on the app shows they do the to-go at A&C from 7:30-11 for breakfast, 11:30-2 for lunch, and 5-9 for dinner.I wasn't sure if you could order mobile order from Ale & Compass - that's great to know we can order ahead and pick up breakfast!

Yeah, I haven't been over there yet, I'm gonna try to make it over there on my solo trip in June. All of the other ones are at places I've stayed at since reopening so I've ordered from them a lot (especially Kona, they started decorating my bag I was ordering so many meals on my trip in August). Ordering to-go from TS places at my resort is probably one of my favorite things to come out of all of this. It also means that if I crave some of those pancakes at A&C, but can't get an ADR (or don't have time), I can just order on my phone and eat them where I want.Three Bridges over at Gran Destino does it also. But they don't open until 4.
