All Day Dining-Worth it!

[Wishes Count]

My friend and I went to Sea World on Sunday 7/31 all day and purchased the All Day Dining deal. It came to about $31 after tax and was completely worth it!

You get an entree, side or dessert and a beverage each time through the line, with no limits of how many times you could go through. There are several different restaurants, which serve many different menu items. The normal burgers and chicken, pizza, pasta, Fried chicken, BBQ spare ribs, Fajita sandwhiches. Lots of variety!


Several times we just stopped into a restruant to get bottles of water or a soda and a snack. I had watermelon mostly and my friend got strawberries also. It was a nice refreshing healthy snack!

One of the restaurants is a pizza/pasta buffet and the price is about $11 for adults. Most of the other menu items are about $7 to $9 and soda/bottled water is around $3.


I think it was worth it, we really ate a lot of food. And not just chicken and burgers, a lot of good food. If you are going and are planning on eating at least 2 meals there and figure you will want to stop in for some water/soda or snacks throughout the day it is really a good deal.

I got it at Busch Gardens and with my AP discount came out to $27.I think between the actual meals and getting drinks and snacks throughout the day we probably ate and drank at least $60,not bad for only costing $27.On a hot summer day when you need water or drinks constantly it's almost silly not to get it.

We were there on Aug. 3 and had free dining plan. Even if we didn't have free dining, it would have been totally worth paying for. We ate at Voyagers for two of the meals and they gave us so much food! My DS10 and I each got the combo platter which came with ribs, rotisserie (sp?) chicken, fries, coleslaw a drink, and dessert. It was actually way too much food! But I must say, it was one of the best meals we had on vacation!

This almost sounds too good to be true - so you can go through line as many times as you want - no time limits, no limits on the number of times throughout the day you can get food? I saw they are offering it for free as part of their package - I just want to make sure that it is as good as it sounds.

Thanks,

I really like their deal. After our meal, we go back thru the line and get a bottle of water. We were last there thanksgiving week last year and the lines were very short.

It is only limited by the time you want to spend eating.

And right now until Sept 30 if you have an annual pass you can save $10 per meal deal.

Hi, we (wife, daughter7, son6 and me) are going sept 3rd and we are getting a family tour that include a light meal. I was thinking of getting the meal plan, but I don't know if is worth it paying $100 for it? Because we already have one include, so probably we just eat there twice.

It is as good as it sounds and what makes it better is that the quality of food at the Busch/Sea World parks is very good when compared to other parks.The bad thing is that you end up eating too much and have to sit down for 40 minutes until you feel ready to ride Sheikra.Are they really giving passholders $10 off the all day dining price,that's $20 to eat all day,the parks are closing earlier than in the summer but it's still a good deal.

The light meal is like a hotdog and a bag of chips. The park is open very late that night. If someone has an AP, you could save 40 off the meal deal forthe4of you. An AP is like $30 more than a one day ticket.

Depending on how hot it is, the meal deal pays for itself for us in drinks and watermelon alone.

Thanks for posting this! We are going to SW after our Dream cruise in January, and I was looking at the packages that SW offers with the dining included. I wasn't sure if the dining plan included snacks, but from looking at your experience it does. Are there any limitiations? From what I see on their site it looks like alchohol and the ribs platter at one restaurant are excluded, but is anything else?

Thanks again!

We just got back from Sea World and had the free dining from the package deal, but the deal was only good for one day of our stay. Well, we used it the entire day the Saturday of Labor Day week-end. We had early entry as we stayed in a Sea World friend hotel. (They do a very limited behind the scenes eco tour 1/2 hour before opening). We had access to food, including a full breakfast, until 1/2 hour before closing that was 10pm that night. We had so much food! It was great. The restrictions I saw were: drinks: 20 ounce fountain soda (Pepsi products: soda and lemonade) or a 20 ounce bottle of Aquafina. Any other type of drink was not included. At Voyager, yes, the just ribs platter was not included, and this is a big restriction too: not all the restaurants in the park are included. I thought most of the restaurants that were included were not spread evenly all over the park. Most seems to be on the one side of the park. Also, there were specialty desserts and some other entrees that are not included. The only things we saw for dessert, but not at every included restaurant, were: a small cup of strawberries, two to three small slices of watermellon, large cupcakes with a huge icing topping, slices of cake (chocolate and carrot, and some others I can't remember) or not so good tasting chocolate or vanilla pudding in a small cup that had a squirl of whip cream I also did not like. Kid's meal did not include a dessert, though did include grapes. There is no limit on the number of times you go through a line, but depending on how busy, it may take you a lot longer to eat then you think. However, checking out is easy: we found as soon as the cashier saw your band, you just walked past without a receipt or her ringing anything. The most I saw was at one of the restaurants was a person marking whether we took drink, side, dessert or entree. You are allowed one drink, one side or dessert (note that some entrees include fries or potato salad) and you still pick a side (either more fries, sometimes mac and cheese, most of the time a small garden salad) or desert, and one entree. The included items were clearly marked with a colored dot, one color for each element of the plan: drink, side/dessert, entree. We also simply went through the line for drinks. A few times when we went through the line for a drink, we also had a side of fries, or watermellon, or strawberries. The best was you could take your cup or bottle of water out of the restaurant with you. There is also no sharing, but I am not sure how enforced that is as we saw kids eating from their parents plates and adults sharing that didn't have the bands. The food was good and portions were large. Enjoy. We liked the entertainment and Sea World in general.
