Old Key West Stay

[lizpalacios]

Hi! I will be staying at OKW in September first deluxe resort stay. I've noticed there isn't a food court? where would I be able to go for quick snack breakfast/lunch for dining credits? Will I still be getting a refillable mug and where would I go to use that? Thanks so much!

There is Foods to Go for quick service.
There is also Olivia's for sit down (and in my eyes a hidden gem at disney)

You can get drink refills at Goods Food to Go, and soda-only in the “game room” at the Turtle pond pool. From what the cashier said, both locations have soda 24 hours, but the coffee/tea is more limited.

The Turtle pond pool bar also has a limited lunch menu..if it’s open.

What I quickly noticed at my early DVC/Deluxe stays is ... plan to eat QS at the parks or Disney Springs most of the time. (I was used to eating 4+ QS meals at a value, and quickly tired of attempting that at most non-monorail Deluxe due to the lack of options)

OKW only has a QS take out window, no indoor seating, just a few outdoor picnic tables.
For breakfast, it’s better to pickup some pastries in a park (ie France bakery, Gaston’s, Starbucks, Jeoffry’s) for snack credits and bring them back to the room to heat up the next morning.

None of the Deluxe resorts have a "food court" like those in the Value resorts.

This is valuable information. While we enjoy our deluxe and DVC stays, this is one of our most frequent comments, that the QS food options are limited. We usually stick to eating in the parks, knowing that whatever we get at the hotel will be limited.

Goods only has outdoor seating and it's limited. We've taken food back to the room on many occasions, especially when it's raining.

We use the kitchen in our unit for 'fast food and drinks'.

The reason there's such limited Fast Food options is that OKW was the first DVC resort, built with a real "home away from home" idea, and the thinking was that a lot of people would cook in their rooms. However, I've heard that you can order from the Olivia's menu at the "Gurgling Suitcase". Or if you have a car, as we usually do at OKW, we go over to POR's food court.

Good Food to Go as a pretty decent menu.
