Good CS in Boardwalk area?

[jkmmah]

We're planning to take a mid-break from MGM and visit the Boardwalk area. I don't know anything about the restaurants over there, other than Beaches and Cream. What CS options are there for us if we get hungry? I'd love some good recommendations!

Stick with Beaches & Cream!

I thought Beaches and cream was a TS. Anyone know for sure?

It was a TS when we were there 2 weeks ago. I love Beaches and Cream, but it's definitely not the best use of a TS credit.

There are some great sandwiches and salads available from Boardwalk Bakery which is CS.

There isn't a lot of CS in the BW area - BW bakery. Hurricane Hannas and the Luna Park pool bars both have a little food. During the evening there are sometimes vendors on the BW, but I don't recall them being open much during the day.

I was looking at the menus, and saw that the Dolphin Fountain has lots of sandwiches, but I don't have any idea how busy they get.

I agree that there isn't much CS around the BW. You could also try the Beach Club Marketplace for a quick sandwich and some gelato. It's not really a restaurant, but there are a few tables inside and a few outside as well.

Our favorite - the Boardwalk pizza window. Whole pies or slices, salads, beer and wine. It's take out only but sitting along Crescent Lake is my "I'm here" moment. There's also a hot dog place right there with fries and other things. The hot dogs are true foot longs and are a great bargain.

We've eaten at the Dolphin Fountain several times. We've never had to wait for a seat - sometimes we were a party of 6, sometimes a party of 3 and sometimes a party of two.

The Fountain is similar in many respects to Beaches and Cream, and we like the food - it's basically a burger/sandwich place and they have good ice cream/shakes, etc.

None of the restuarants in the Swan or Dolphin are included in the Dining Plan, though if that is a criteria.

Best wishes -

You can do Beaches & Cream as counter service, where you order at the counter, get your food & go. Or you can do it as table service, where you come in, are seated by the host(ess), and have a server who takes your order & brings the food to you.

There is a separate door if you are just ordering food to go.

Cheers!

Thanks, Carol. And no-we're not on the plan, so this may work for us!
