Need Counter Service Advice, Please

[sarahandhannahsmom]

We are going at the end of May with 5 adults, 3 children (7,4,2) with the MYW plus dining.

We have made all our PS's for sit down meals. In past trips for counter service we have simply stumbled to a counter service place when we got hungry. I'd like to plan a little better this trip. Could someone give me some good counter service tips for the following:

Saturday, Dinner at Epcot before Illuminations. (Probably in World Showcase)

Sunday, Breakfast or Lunch at Epcot (we'll probably be in future world this day)

Monday, Dinner at AK

Wednesday, Breakfast or lunch at MGM

Thursday, Breakfast or lunch at MK

Friday, Breakfast or lunc at MK

Also, if we have CS at All Star Movies, what is the best place, and are there any "stay away froms"?

Thanks in advance.

A couple of favorites for me and DD7:

MK - Cosmic Ray's wins hands-down for us. There are several good food choices and DD loves watching the 'show'

AK - Tusker House was good. The grilled veg sandwich was just ok to me, but DD loved her meals there.

EPCOT - It's worth grazing through the countries here instead of doing a single counter meal. You can get good counter meals, but it's a lot of fun to have nibbles and snacks from all over the world.

MGM - I forget if it was the commissary or the Backlot that we tried - it was a buffet and was pretty disappointing. We usually do sit-down meals at MGM since they have been so much better in our experience. If you're on the Dining Plan, as we will be in April, it may be worth eating a counter service meal at another location or just saving that counter service meal for another day......)

For breakfasts in the theme parks, we eat at:
Epcot - The Fountainview
Animal Kingdom - Tusker House
Magic Kingdom - Main Street Bake Shop
MGM - no place!

Columbia Harbour House at MK is a great counter service. One of the quieter places in MK, and usually the upstairs tables are almost empty. A great place to catch your breath, and the food is pretty good.

Saturday, Dinner at Epcot before Illuminations. - Tangeriene Cafe

Sunday, Breakfast or Lunch at Epcot - I think the only place is Electric Umbrella since the Land is closed until June... sorry...

Monday, Dinner at AK - Tusker House

Wednesday, Breakfast or lunch at MGM - Starring Rolls bakery. It's just a bakery /pastry thing. I don't know about ABC Commisary breakfast. Maybe you can find a review on it.

Breakfast at MK - Main Street Bakery... definitely
Lunch at MK - Columbia Harbour House was good and I've heard good reviews about Pecos Bill.

Why don't you check out the menu on allearsnet.com first... have fun!

Try Tangerine Cafe in Epcot (Morracco) Its something different to try.I though it was very good.

Thanks for the advice, keep it coming. Any thoughts on All Star Movies food court and the Cantina San Angel in Epcot's Mexico?
