Beaches and Cream Dinner

[cd&kids]

Can you get a p.s. for dinner here? Also, what is the seating like? We're a family of 5....definitely plan on getting ice cream here one night...but also thinking of doing a dinner here.
Any advice? Thank you!

Hi,

No ADRs at B&C, it's walk-in and take out only. And it does get VERY crowded at peak dining times and after Illuminations. There are very few tables. I'd suggest you try to go at an "off" time; we usually go for lunch right when they open.

Is there anything nearby for the kids to do if we have to wait at B&C? Thinking of going about 7:30 one evening for dinner and know we may have to wait as there are 6 of us.

There is an arcade right next door.

My biggest advice, keep your expectations reasonable. This place has a lot of fans who love the burgers and sundaes. We found both to be ok, but neither to be exceptional, and we didn't feel like it was a good value nor a good use of our time (a 20 minute wait at 3:00 in the afternoon, followed by poor service, made a burger and ice cream a hour and a half long production). Fortunately, my expectations had been lowered, so I was only disappointed.

(Ghiradelli's has better ice cream, IMHO, and even that isn't as good as any of the small shops that serve homemade fresh ice cream we visit at home).

We went to Beaches & Cream last week and had burgers and fries for lunch and thought that the burgers in the parks were better!! This place is over priced and the food is not that good! We had to wait around 20 minutes for a table and the service was not great either. I would skip it and find some place in Epcot to eat! or maybe try ESPN as I hear the food there is good!?

This is very good advice - for all restaurants.

Beaches and Cream is what it is - an ice cream and soda shop that makes burgers, hot dogs, fries, and the like.

It is not a gourmet hamburger place.

That being said, our family loves the place. But we love the whole package - the food, the atmosphere, everything. We don't go in expecting to have the best hamburger we've ever tasted. But we enjoy the food. We enjoy the ice cream.

We plan on going back this May. As we always do.
