QS Food & Mug Refills at BCV and BLT

[dr&momto2boys]

This will be our first stay at both BCV and BLT in May. I have a few questions:

Where do we get mugs and refill them at BCV? I've read about BC Marketplace and assume that is the answer but where is it? I've only ever seen the BC from the outside as we strolled past it from BWV to Epcot. Do they have anything good for snack credits? Mostly looking for lunchtime or evening snacks here. (We'll go to Epcot and get pastries for breakfast!)

I know BW Bakery is nearby as well. Do they refill mugs there too, or just for BW guests? (I'm guessing that's the case. I know they wouldn't know who's who, but I'm just one of those people who always follows the rules!)

Is there anything besides the pool bar at BLT? (Besides TOTW lounge.) Where do we refill mugs at BLT? At contemporary? Anything good for breakfast snack credits there? Does the pool bar have anything for breakfast or snack credits?

Thanks for the answers! Just trying to get a picture of how this will work.

At BLT, you can refill the mugs at the pool bar or at Contempo Cafe (CR). We used the Contempo Cafe area for refills, for us it was a few minute walk across the sky bridge. Some people complain that it's a long ways, but it seemed as short or shorter than the places we've stayed at (Jambo, Kidani, BW, Poly, CBR, POR, POFQ, and the All Stars).

I'm not sure about the pool bar availability for snack credits.

However, the Contempo Cafe (counter service) is nearby (and is very convenient particularly when you get off the monorail). We were pleasantly surprised by the food there.

One of our favorite snacks while staying at BLT...
When returning from Epcot via monorail, get off at the Polynesian. They have self serve Dole Whips at the CS there.

In addition to the BC Marketplace, you can refill your mugs at Hurricane Hannas and Beaches and Cream. I don't see a problem using your mug at Boardwalk Bakery. I think that I read that you can use your mug at any resort during your length of stay. I'm sure that I will be hearing it from someone if I am wrong. A good snack credit at BC is ice cream from Beaches and Cream to-go window. They also have pastries and gelato in the Marketplace.

My favorite use of a snack credit anywhere is the yogurt and berry parfait at BCV. The CMs make them to order with blueberries, raspberries, strawberries and granola (if you wish). Available at breakfast only I think....really fairly sure.

The Contempo Cafe at the Contemporary is one of my favorite counter service locations and here is a link to their menu.

You can also refill mugs at Hurricane Hanna's.

Contempo Cafe is one of the things we loved about our stay at BLT. It was such an easy walk to get a quick bite or refill a mug. It also helped that our room was on the same level as the walkway between the buildings.

The Sand Trap at the CR Main Pool also refills mugs and they serve Burgers and chips, hot dogs, etc. They also take DDP

BC Marketplace is near the Hotel Lobby near the Solarium. On the side near the Villas. There are free DVD rentals there too for DVC Members.

It's actually called The Sand Bar and they don't refill the mugs.

Thank you but I was there March 16 and received a mug refill. They did give me a cup full of diet coke if that makes a diff.
Much like the BW Bakery.

Was not the first time either.
