Dolphin Resort- Food Court???

[LeeAnn]

Does the Dolphin Resort have a food court? I was therefor a couple days. Went to a place that had breakfast that cost twice as much as in the Store, Fuel. Not much choices. Anything like a Disney Resort Food Court? Am better off walking to the Boardwalk for breakfast?

Also, can a Refillable Mug be purchased if not staying at the resort? If I walk over to the Yacht Club, I purchase and use there?

I don't know what either Swan or Dolphin has for food other than IL Mulino.

Yes to both on the mug.

But may be worth it to you to take it along when going to parks since you can refill it at any Disney-owned resort.

So, Contemporary or Grand Floridian if at MK and going out quickly for QS at either--or over at Poly. Take that mug for a "free" drink. (Yes, I realize you likely know this but am adding for newbie readers who may not.)

Trattoria al Forno on the Boardwalk is my favorite spot for breakfast, it’s sit down or to-go tho, not a food court.

Yacht/Beach Club quick service would be more like a food court.

Yes. Picabu is open, though from what reports are its not how it was pre-covid. During our pre-covid stay we ate at Picabu every morning, custom made omelettes were wonderful.

SwanDolphin does not participate in Disney refillable mugs and again, but I do think somebody over on the Walt Disney World SWAN, DOLPHIN & SWAN RESERVE RESORTS Information & Questions thread said they were back, but Dan Murphy's text to them in Jan 2022 they were not. You can use the SwanDolphin Mobile App to text and find out, once you open the App click on I'm on Property then Text Us.

If by "food court" you mean a dining area with seating in the middle and various quick service windows, where people can eat together after they got their from any of the quick service windows -- no, the Dolphin does not have that. None of the resorts in the Epcot area have that.

If you mean "quick service" as opposed to "table service where waiters and waitresses come to you to take your order and bring you your food": the Dolphin has Picabu restaurant.

The Swan and Dolphin have their own app, which you can dowload to get info about the restaurants at those hotels.

If you want to look at menus for the Yacht Club, Beach Club or the BoardWalk: I find that www.AllEars.Net is easier to browse than the official Disney website.

Yes, its downstairs (basement level) called Picabu. It's better than the options at the other Epcot resorts, from my recollection, although that was back in 2017.

Short answer - no. Swan and Dolphin share facilities though. There is a coffee stand at Swan and Fuel at Dolphin. Picabu at Dolphin is a sort of cafeteria style QS. There is a cabana area at the pool at Dolphin that serves food. There are a number of table service restaurants at both. In the before times. Med. Fresh Market at Dolphin had breakfast buffet and you could also order off the menu. Now they have sort of a modified breakfast buffet. Dolphin has The Fountain with is sort of a Beaches and Cream without the atmosphere but good food. Last time I was there, in April, not all of them were open every day so you would need to check the app for hours and days they are open.

I was just there for 2 days. Didn't have much time to explore.
One day I had got a breakfast sandwich and coffee at the Fuel.
I was looking for the food court. Picabu, now I realized that where I went. There ws nothing there. I was so disappointed a nice breakfast. Icoff got a similar breakfast and a coffee (this did have some potatoes) and I paid more than double than the day before. I won't do that again. I thought maybe I didn't find the Food Court. Gotta find other options.

Am I better off going to other locations for breakfast?

I really depends on what you are after. You can walk over to YC/BC where there is a sort of QS breakfast like you might be used to in a food court. There are no food courts in that area like there are at the value and moderates if that is what you are after. I think you should just look at the menus on line for YC/BC and BW, MDE has them as well as here and Allears.net. For Swan/Dolphin just go to Dolphin's web page and look under restaurants, it has menus. https://swandolphin.com/
