GF ? - Gaspirilla Grill closed until Nov.

[Harambe]

They are offering the Summerhouse for quick meals 7am til 10pm. Has anyone eaten here? What do they have?

We'll need breakfast and dinner options!

Where did you see that they were closing until Nov.

I'd like some info on this too. We had plans to eat here several times in Nov.

BUMP!

Does anyone know anything about this?

I read about it also, on Allearsnet.com. Since I am staying there in late Oct., I was a bit concerned at first. I assume the Summerhouse offerings will be similar to GG (at least, that's what I'm hoping!)

I looked on allears and did not see it anywhere, where did you see it? How long is it going to be closed? And lastley WHY?

The Summerhouse was a take out ice cream place when we were just there. The only tables were those on the patio. If this is true, I'm not sure how they would set it up to be more like a restaurant.

Don't forget it's a short walk to the Poly from the GF.

And you can also visit the Contemporary, and then take the transportation from there.


That's a shame they are closing the whole grill during your stay!

Darn, we love walking over to Gasparilla from the Poly at night when we get back from Wishes to get a make your own sundae.

Karemore where in the Hudson Valley are you from? We live in Hurley.

As someone else mentioned, I read this in the Allearsnet newsletter. It didn't say why. I think I'm going to call GF tomorrow and see what the deal is. I hope they will offer more than ice cream at the Summerhouse. I'm looking for mug refills and quick snacks/breakfasts.

Don't want to tell DH. He's watchig to see if we should cancel because of all the hurricanes. He'll be mad to hear we can't grab a quick meal at the GF.

Anyone know when the Grand Floridian Cafe opens for breakfast?

We just got back from the GF last night. This is true - Gasparilla is closed for rehab until November. They have a sign out front saying you can join them at Summerhouse. This change was unexpected and very unappreciated as we purchased length of stay mugs the day before Gasparilla closed. We were eventually refunded the price of the mug, but you could go to Summerhouse, show your mug, and get a 12 ounce can. That's just not the same as a fountain drink in my book and Summerhouse has limited hours.

Summerhouse has been stocked up in an attempt to compensate for the loss of Gasparilla, but falls far short.

What we ended up doing for breakfasts was walking over to Poly to eat at Kona Cafe - great food and reasonable prices.
