OK, ready for your dining opinions!

DH, DD's 9,7 and DS 5 and I will be going March 4-11. We are staying at the Poly. After agonizing for hours about which park and where to eat, I've realized there just isn't enough time to do it all!!

Sat. arrive, driving from MA, not sure what time we'll arrive, so this evening is open.

Sun. MK- Chef Mickey- this seems like a tradition

Mon. Epcot- undecided...Biergarten, Coral Reef? I think Le Cellier might be too fancy? (unsure, since I haven't been yet) Also, I don't remember what time should ADR's be to make it to the fireworks.

Tues. MK- HDDR, did this last year and loved it

Wed- MGM- haven't seen Fantasmic yet, what time should ADR's be to make it? I think we'll do Sci-Fi for lunch (I think the kids will enjoy it even though the food is so-so) We might head to this park later as it is not the kids favorite.

Thurs. AK- Boma, can we take a bus back to the Poly? How long a ride to AKR from the park?

Fri- MK-possibly WCC-never been there either

Sat- O'hana's breakfast

Can't wait for your suggestions! I love reading all your tips and ideas. Thanks for making planning so fun!

If you are staying at the Poly, you should consider eating at 'Ohana for dinner as well! It is a favorite of many and the kids enjoy it. Take a look at the MK Wishes schedule that night and see what time Wishes is. Make an AR (if you can get one) for 1 hour before Wishes - get to 'Ohana 20 minutes before your AR and see if you can get a window seat or one close to it.

Sounds great!

Le Cellier is not too fancy. I however, love the Biergarten and it seems to be a favorite of kids too with the band.



Tues. MK- HDDR, did this last year and loved it

Good choice!



Wed- MGM- haven't seen Fantasmic yet, what time should ADR's be to make it? I think we'll do Sci-Fi for lunch (I think the kids will enjoy it even though the food is so-so) We might head to this park later as it is not the kids favorite.

If you do Sci-Fi for a late lunch, maybe 3ish, then you can enjoy the park and get a seat for Fantasmic about an hour before show time.



Thurs. AK- Boma, can we take a bus back to the Poly? How long a ride to AKR from the park?

Ride from AK to AKL is about 10 minutes. If you have a car, I suggest driving to AK that day and then drive to AKL and back to Poly. Otherwise, you will have to take a bus from AKL to MK and the monorail or boat back to Poly. Very easy parking at AK.


Fri- MK-possibly WCC-never been there either

You will love WCC and so will the kids!


Sat- O'hana's breakfast

Good choice! We loved it!

Ooh, I'm getting excited!
Thanks TJmouse for your quick reply! Do you have a favorites or not to be missed?

We have been there 3 times in 15 months and done lots of dining. We have done Chef Mickey's every time and Crystal Palace every time. I love 'Ohana. Biergarten is one of my favorites, but I love sausage and I just love the German atmosphere - a lot of people don't find their buffet that great, but give me sausage, spaetzle and beer and I'm a happy camper! I also really liked Liberty Tree Tavern.
