Air Conditioning?

[KPLC]

Just wondering how cool the restaurants are - do the put the AC on max so that one should pack a light sweater for the kids for the meals ?
Thanks

They are cool. If you are that type who get's cold fast then I would have one on me. More for night time in my opinion.

Great Question!

Yes, it tends to get quite cool in some spots if you have the AC blowing on you. I remember being at LTT years ago and wishing I had pants and a sweater on!

They are meat lockers, IMO.

I would pack some type of light jacket. One of my daughters always freezes when we go into restaurants, so I have learned to have her always take a jacket.

Your right ! That's to funny

I know there are lots of folks who think WDW restaurants are too cold--but I've never felt cold in any of the spots we've dined at. And that's most every restaurant at WDW.
Frankly, I'm glad to escape the heat!!

My wife always takes a sweater. For the kids and I, the A/C is a welcome relief from the Florida humidity.

I am someone that is always cold and I found some of the restaurants to be VERY cold so I was glad I had a sweater with me one place was so bad I took the towel out of my backpack and used it across my legs. Brrrrrrr!

I always carry a windbreaker in my backpack, and one for DS as well. Last year we forgot to bring a jacket for DS and he ended up wearing mine half the time. (That meant I shivered through multiple meals. )If he is too cold he won't eat, so his jacket for our next trip is already packed!

If you are going during the summer you never know when you may get rained on, and if you are damp then you will absolutely freeze in the A/C!

Bring a light sweatshirt, especially if it rains and you get wet and go in the restaurant, or even the buses can be frigid if you just got rained on.

 

[jenseib]

I never found them too cold either.

 

[Pirate Me]

I always pack a jacket (and usually put it on) in the restaurants. They can get very cold!

 

[tkldisney]

I always take sweater or light jacket with me now. I've bought several sweatshirts in hotel gift shops to be comfortable during dinner.

We always go during the summer. I don't remember ever needing a sweater in any of the restaurants, and we're always dressed for the summer weather. I think you should be okay, but if you are always cold it might be a good idea to have one just in case.

1) Some restaurants are cool.
2) Some are downright cold.
3) The wife always takes a sweater to signature eateries.
4) This is since we had to eat ice cream to warm up during dinner.

I am a cold body so I always have a jumper or jacket with me. The worst offender is Sci-fi IMO, they could use the place as a fridge. As another poster said the buses can also be dam chilly especially if it's mid afternoon and you have been in the hot sun or if you're wet (water rides, rain, or been to a water park and have wet hair).

It really depends. I am generally a little cold in most of the table service restaurants if I don't have at least a long-sleeved t-shirt or light sweatshirt with me. There are some that are downright cold though. Hoop Dee Doo for instance, the first time I went, the servers brought tablecloths for us to wrap up in we were shivering so much. Same thing at California Grill. So for me, I always bring something with long sleeves even in the middle of summer. The AC feels good for the first couple of minutes after being in the heat, but them it's a little too much in my opinion.

I'd recommend bringing something just in case rather than be caught without it and want a little something to keep warm with.
