This is nothing fancy and certainly not out of the ordinary but we always enjoy eating at Olive Garden - good food, large portions and YUMMY drinks and desserts.

There's a Bennigan's across the street from Old Town (which is right next to where you are staying) that's about as relaxed an atmosphere as you'll find. Food's pretty good, too.
If you want to drive a short ways, there's a Roadhouse Grill just past Medieval Times on the other side of 192. It's about as relaxed as you can find. There's a big barrel with fresh peanuts inside the door. You help yourself while waiting for a table and toss the empty shells on the floor. Food is also very good here. It's quite an experience if you've never been to one of these.

We really like Pizzeria Uno and Carabas. Both are close to where you're staying.
PS for more of an experience for a little more $$ I highly reccomend Bahama Breeze. Just need to turn on 535 towards WDW from 192 and you'll run into it on the right side of the road. It's been a couple years since we were there but the food was great and they had a huge assortment of drinks. I think they're on the web at bahamabreeze.com same company as olive gardens.

you want the free vacation planning kit
has some very nice and useable maps it in - it also list restuarants (toward the end ) and where they are.

We like Chevy's. It's a casual inexpensive Tex-Mex place and I love the chips and salsa that are brought to the table as soon as you're seated which is great if you're starvin from playing all day, lol, and their apple margaritas with sugar on the rim are my favorite. There's two of them, 1 way down on 192 and 1 right at the Disney entrance.

Another vote for Logans Roadhouse here! Great food and reasonable prices.
I also second Bahama Breeze over on I-Drive. Yum! Though they are a little pricey, IMO.

Don't forget the KrispyKreme on 192 just across from the "Big Orange"...this location makes the donuts right before your eyes! Okokokokok...not for dinner, but not to be missed if you're a KK fan!
There's a Publix grocery store on the corner of 192 (also known as Irlo Bronson Hwy) and 535 (also known as Vineland Road). In order to get to it coming from your lodgings on 192, go east, staying in the left hand lanes for about (2-3?) miles. Be sure to turn left on Vineland, staying in the right lane of the 2 left turn lanes...then drive into the shopping area at the first opportunity...it's an unmarked entrance, but don't worry if you miss it you just turn right at the stoplight you're coming up to anyway.
You'll see what I mean when you do it once...when you wish to leave going back west on 192, you can get out directly onto 192 (look for it after you've shopped). This entrance can only be accessed coming from the east heading west...lol...I'm not expecting you to remember this, just giving you a heads up ahead of time in case you're planning on using a grocery store. This Publix has excellent, reasonably priced, family-style to go chicken as well as many other things. Our favorite is a whole key lime pie for about $7.50.
To get to the SuperWalmart, go east on 192, past the Big Orange (on your left), past Vineland Road and the Publix (on your left) and past Medieval Times (on your right). Then you'll see it...there's a shortcut to your right just barely past Medieval Times, but it's easy to miss and it's almost a hairpin turn so you might want to just go on up to the light your first time. Also, you cannot use this shortcut to exit from Walmart. For that, you will definitely want to "go towards the light"! LOL...this Walmart is exceptionally busy even in the middle of the night so be prepared.
There's a Perkins and a Chile's on the right on 192 going east from your lodgings...about 2 miles I'm guessing...the Chile's is close to KrispyKreme and a Crackerbarrel.
If you've never had Checkers fries, you might want to try them. There's a Checkers drive-thru or eat outside right at the entrance to Old Town...and Old Town is neat anyway. They have Classic Car Cruises at least once a week there and lots of other things/rides and places to eat too.
If you check the Online Orlando Entertainment Book there are 2-for-1 dinners...one for a lobster dinner on 192 (at least there was in January)...you can check it all out even before you buy the online book. I bought it for one month's worth, paid 3.99 used tons of coupons and then cancelled it. They don't mind if you do this. I checked. We buy one month subscriptions to the Entertainment Book wherever we go. It's a great way to save some $$$ If you're going to DTD, there's a 2 for 1 Ghiradelli's (sp) hot fudge sundae. LOL You can tell where my mind is...I like desserts!
If you use this, make sure you order the online subscription just before you go since they are only good for 14 days from when you print them out.
Have a wonderful trip!

We had a great time and good food at the Japenese restaurant 'Kabuchi' on 192. Saw an ad in one of the free local magazines about early bird specials. It was almost 1/2 price of the regular menu prices and was more than enough food. The chef did a great job keeping the kids entertained!
