We have a choice of:

GG at 1:30
50's PT at 2:15
LTT at 6:30

Two yrs. ago we all did LTT, and it was great, but our group is split on this. It's hard to compete with LTT's atmosphere for Thanksgiving, but price and dining time are also important. My dh and I don't want eat that late (6:30). For the price difference between LTT and GG we could pay for a counter service meal. I booked 50's PT as an alternate, but not seeing turkey on the menu, I will be canceling if the Dine line confirms there's no turkey there.

My Question:
If you didn't like the dining time or dessert costing extra, and could save $30-$40 at another restaurant you like but it doesn't have all the holiday atmosphere, where would you go? (Assume that the budget is tight enough that if you take the less expensive meal you can have a counter service supper another day instead of packing sandwiches and that practically all meals will be at our timeshare.)
 
If you havent already arranged an ADR for LTT by now you probably wont get any time. All the Disney restaurants including PT serve some version of the traditional Thanksgiving dinner. They take ADRs 90 days prior to the dining date. Anyone thinking of going for Thanks and wanting to eat at a sit down restaurant that weeken you need to call ASAP.
We have enjoyed holiday meals at Brown Derby, Boatwrights, GF Cafe, Trails End and Yachtmans St. All had turkey on Thanksgiving day.

You might want to check out the following site.

They list some of the special holiday menus. The turkey dinner is usually the special of the day and you wont have a problem finding it in any of the restaurants, with the exception of a few of the WS restaurants.

See you there!
 
I knew that info, thanks, which is why I have the times of our reservations listed. LTT sells out the day it becomes avbl. We need to decide where to eat then cancel what we aren't going to use. (someone will be happy) For my part, I'd be fine splitting our group with my 5 doing GG and the others heading to LTT, but I'm sure that would be regarded as an act of anarchy against the family. I was asking if you were in my shoes, which of these ADR's would you choose?
