Best Counter Meals

Loved the Chicken Salad in a bread bowl at Pacific Wharf in DCA. It was a nice change of pace for amusement park food.

Bengal BBQ has great Kabobs, also different than the normal hot dog, pizza, fries fare.

Hope to have more recommendations after our 6 night trip in May!

Yes! I love the Chicken Salad in a bread bowl too and I'm not even much of a salad eater. And I just tried the Kabobs at Bengal BBQ recently and they were really good too.

I agree that both of these things are a nice change from the usual burger and fries.

I don't know of the best veggie options off-hand, but as far as counter service choices:

In DL, I like Bengal BBQ - great chicken skewers. I also like River Belle Terrace for breakfast. Plaza Inn has good chicken. Oh, and if this counts as counter service, I can't get enough of the goodies at Blue Ribbon Bakery. I haven't eaten at Pizza Port in a long time but from what I recall, I liked it.

In DCA, I like Taste Pilots Grill. I have to echo what Pixiewings71 said about the BBQ chicken sandwich. Mine actually came with a ton of BBQ sauce on it so I didn't need to add more (in fact, I wish the chicken breast had been a little bigger), but I did load on the onions. Plus, the fries that the BBQ chicken sandwich comes with are great - they kind of look like a cross between Ruffles potato chips and pickle slices. I was using those to try to sop up some of the BBQ sauce!

In the three hotels, the only counter service-type place I have tried was the little coffee/snacks place in PPH, and actually that was pretty good. Yummy blended mochas.

In DTD, this doesn't really count, but Marceline's has some good sweet treats.

I intend to try Whitewater Snacks and Pacific Wharf Cafe on one of these upcoming visits!

Definately try the chicken sandwhich at Whitewater Snacks! The meat is twice as big as Taste Pilot! The fries aren't criss cross, but you get more fries too. It comes with guacamole on it, if you like. My favorite!

That is one of the things that is enticing me to eat at WWS! I saw pictures of that chicken sandwich, and I love a good chicken breast sandwich. I would get mine without the guacamole on it, but I am sure it would be easy enough to get some other kind of condiment on it (I usually just go for the mustard, onions and BBQ sauce). Plus, it comes with a bunch of strawberries on the side, so that's a big plus for me! Also, I saw a picture of the turkey sandwich they sell (is there a refrigerated section in WWS, because it looked as though the turkey sandwich was already packaged up and refrigerated for to-go purposes?), and that also looked great and seemed to be a very good size. I want to try the breakfast bowl at Pacific Wharf Cafe. I love the idea of eggs and bacon in a bowl!

The strawberries must be season. We got them in July, but not in Jan.
