After watching my fav youtuber yesterday do some kids meal videos I'm interested in Adults who buy kids meals and which ones are your fav's and which ones you think are the best value.

We have been doing Kids meals for a lot of our trips, we like to eat smaller meals more often rather than large ones, so kids meals work well for us.

We haven't been to WDW for 5 years so a lot has changed food wise, so I'm really interested to hear opinions and bonus if you have pictures too :)
 
I am a snacker with a small stomach so I sometimes buy kids meals from QS restaurants, or I get the smaller meal so I can also get dessert. Docking Bay 7 tip yip and Satuli Canteen chicken bowl, are favorites. My kid likes the Columbia Harbor House salmon.

Definitely 2nd satuli !!! And great food !!
 
AK Satu'li Canteen we really enjoy the Kids Meal Hot Dog ~ and I NEVER EVER buy hot dogs out. It is large wrapped in a nice dough. We like the sides of homemade chips. We ask for bottled water to take with us and then order a coke since they have refillable cups.

Epcot Regal Eagle is a must do for me. I LOVE the Kids Salad with Smoked Chicken. You get two sides and drink. Again we get the bottled water to go. Drinks there are refillable. The salad is an ample portion and you get two sides. I like the garlic bread and usually fries. DS gets coleslaw and fries.

Not a kids meal but we like to share the GIANT Pretzel at DHS Baseline. It comes with mustard and cheese dip.

There are LOTS of awesome kids meals and we find them plenty filling. The money we saved can get us a few snacks.

There are spots where we share and save like Pinocchio Haus we get the regular Chicken Strip Meal that comes with plenty of fries. I then order the side Caesar Salad which is discounted with the meal. I eat the salad and one strip (plus a couple fries) and DS eats the rest of the meal. Plenty of food.

These are two kids meals I had on my recent trip. Pizza is at MK at Pinocchio’s Village Haus. It’s the kids gluten free pizza, with 2 mandarins and a bottle water. I added on the salad. Chicken Salad sandwich is at HS @ ABC Commissary. Gluten Free bun, side of fries and mandarin, and small soda. Plenty of food!
 
I don't eat QS often but when I do, 90% of that time is kid's meals. I like the kid's breakfast bowl at Woody's at HS. Smaller version of the adults bowl comes with 2 sides and a drink. I actually skip one of the side and just get the mandarin orange for later in the day since the bowl is more than enough food for me. I also get the kid's grilled cheese sandwich there every now and again. I get the chicken rice bowl at Pecos Bills at MK. I get the Kid's pork tacos at ABC in HS sometimes. Other than that, if I'm hungry and in the parks I'll just look at the menus at the park I'm in a get some sort of sandwich kid's meal. I don't snack in between meals because I just don't eat huge amounts of food so I'll sometimes use what are listed as snacks as meals.
 
I get kids' meals lots of times. Most of the ones I've had have already been mentioned, but in addition I've had the cheeseburger pod at Satu'li Canteen and the Empanada, not just at La Cantina, but also at Tortuga Cafe.
 
I think we watched the same video yesterday! I loved her recommendations and second the options at Sunshine Seasons! We also love the cheeseburger pod meal at Satu'li, the kids chicken nachos at Pecos Bills, and we also love the shrimp skewers or fried shrimp option at Columbia Harbor House. Kids meals really are such a good deal since you get two sides and a drink included.

yes, I can't wait for Kristen to do the other parks and hopefully Disney Springs.

I totally agree! There are so many vloggers who do restaurants, but I've never seen any focus on kids' meals, and I'm so excited to see the rest of the series. We get such a kick out of Kristen and all her pals!

I've read some pretty negative things about her online, but I don't care. Her videos are great, the chances of me actually interacting with her are slim LOL so I'll continue to enjoy the videos, and she does some great ones that no one else does, you're exactly right.
 
You know what? People online LOVE to talk badly about Disney vloggers, and I know Kristen isn't the typical vlogger, and that's what I love about her! I feel like she's honest, and like you said, the chances of us actually meeting are slim, so I'd rather assume the best of her and enjoy her videos! Do you watch any of her friends' channels? We love Paging Mr. Morrow and I've just started watching Kingdom Krew and Promise's videos. Honestly, when we're missing Disney, we can't get enough of the videos, so we watch lots of them ;)

I watch some of Nate's videos, I've watched him for years but I will admit now that he get "invited" to a lot of events I feel the reviews are bias.
I do prefer when vlogger's are fully independent. I love Fresh Baked for this reason.
I still watch Nate (Mr Morrow) but tend to switch off some of the ones that seem a bit skewed. I do like Promise too :)
The whole Kingdom Crew seem like they have a lot of fun.
 
You're so right; once they start getting "in" with Disney, it must be harder to give real critiques. They definitely do seem like they have so much fun!
