Seasonal Counter Service Restaurants

[fairytale]

Having always visited in October there are various C/S restaurants which have never been opened.

Having just checked my MK map from 2009, c/s like El Pirata and Pinnochios say "seasonal" when it comes to the opening hours.

Does anyone know when "seasonal" restaurants actually open or more importantly close.

At Christmas they were all open including the tomorrowland noodle place which I have never seen open but was no longer selling noodles just burgers!

OH MY GOD YOU ARE KIDDING MEEE!?!?!?!?! I have NEVER seen that place open, except once when I was younger, and I think I ate there but I'm not positive. We always laugh at the Tomorrowland Terrace because it's such a joke it's NEVER open. And weird that they just sold burgers... so much for the whole "noodle station" thing Oh well. Also, El Pirata y El Perico and the Diamond Horseshoe are seasonal. And never open really. But I have seen those more often than the Noodle Station. Good thing there are plenty of other CS places in MK. Like Cosmic Ray's, Casey's and the Columbia Harbour House

i've read that they very much open according to park attendance so could be open one day and closed the next.

I never intend going when a park is at capacity i.e xmas day so will never see them open.

I know I was amazed haha! I actually fancied the noodles and couldn't believe after all this time they were just doing burgers!

El Pirata is only open in peak times and even then, they dont operate a full day. They are undergoing some kind of refurb at the moment (think it's still in progress) and I have wondered whether they will extend hours once they get the new look.

Even over the Easter week I noticed they would close at say 3 pm. Well if you were walking up to the window bang on 3 pm, that window would slam down and they were CLOSED! All that's missing is a voice shouting "NO SOUP FOR YOU!"

They generally open spring break/ Easter and Christmas.

There is a reason they are seasonal - food at them isn't the best!

Tamu Tamu Refreshments at AK is also seasonal and they serve up some amazing stuff.

It's a shame about El Pirata though. I quite like the tex mex food and it is something you can't get anwhere else at MK - save for a taco at Pecos Bills. The CS options have become far more standard over the recent years and I think they would do well to incorporate some variety.

You missed nothing with the noodle station when it used to have noodles...it was horrible!

I went to the noodle place on Christmas Day, I was sick about an hour later so I won't be going back again.
