DLR dining with a view

[Drcbelle]

What is your favorite place to eat at the parks with a good view? I'm up for anything, a sit down place, counter service, or even places where we can grab something good from a cart and sit and eat. I think I read somewhere that the outdoor dining at Hungry Bear has a great view of the water, and I was looking for more suggestions like that! Thanks!

For TS locations, I like Cafe Orleans if you dine outside, and are seated by the railing. You get a great view of the River of America and New Orleans Square.

For CS locations, I like Jolly Holiday because you watch Main Street and Flo's because you can watch Carsland.

I agree with the patio at Cafe Orleans, I love the food and it's a good spot to people watch. Sitting by the water at Blue Bayou is such a fun experience.

My favorites:
1. Hungry Bear (River, Sailing Ship Columbia/Canoes, etc.)
2. Flo's (Carsland)
3. Blue Bayou (only if you get waterside)
4. Ariel's Grotto (outside)

Haven't tried Cafe Orleans yet. Will have to check it out.

Love the Hungry Bear for QS and a quiet place to sit down and enjoy the view.

Alfresco Terrace is awesome at night as it over looks Carsland with all the lights and neon. Great for a small bite, appetizers and drinks

Cove bar also has nice view of PP, especially at night. Big fan of lunching at Hungry Bear or Cafe Orleans and watching the colorful traffic on ROA.

Over the past several years our favorites have become (in no particular order)
Hungry Bear near the water
Café Orleans on the patio
Flo's in the back to watch the cars go by in RSR
Blue Bayou by the water

The French Market is another good place and overlooks the Rivers of America. In DCA I've always enjoyed the Pacific Wharf Cafe which is a quick service place. And either bo
efore or after eating you can go over to the big "fishing net" and have your picture taken in it.
