Thanksgiving in Disney World, suggestions?

[pscheff105]

My wife and I are going to Disney World for Thanksgiving this year. We have done, Christmas, and Halloween already so we are looking to get suggestions for dining and any special activities for Thanksgiving. We have eaten at the liberty tavern but they are already sold out and booked ourselves at Coral Reef.

O'hana also offers a traditional Thanksgiving dinner, in case you wanted some other ideas!

I had thanksgiving at California Grill and Narcoossee both were very good with traditional options. I enjoyed Narcoosee more than Cali becouse it had a more relaxing feel.

What parks are these in ? What kind of food is California Grill and Narcoossee?

we had thanksgiving dinner at 1900 park fare. it was SO good! They had a traditional buffet as well as many other buffet items. I would definitely look into that..plus you have the characters as well.

We went to Teppan Edo in Epcot for Thanksgiving 2009. It is a Japanese 'slice and dice'---and we had a great time!

We wanted to avoid the traditional T'giving meal locations, especially the ones with characters, to stay away from the crowds and craziness.

It may have been a little weird, but it worked for us and we'll always remember the Thanksgiving where we had sushi and ginger cake instead of turkey and pumpkin pie!

anyone do any animal kingdom restaurants? How about the Garden Grove?

Most of the counter service places in the hotel also offer a traditional Thanksgiving dinner. We stayed at ASMu and had a surprisingly good dinner at the food court. We made the kids order the traditional meal instead of hanburgers or whatever and it was close enough to home to be goood enough. Considering I didn't have to do the shopping, cooking, or cleaning I was happy! Not too mention a bad meal at Disney can be better than a good meal at home.

I have eaten the special Thankgiving menu at Cape May Cafe...VERY good...have done it at least 3 years now.

Pretty much all of the restaurants will have a traditional Thanksgiving selection.

As much as I can't stand buffets, buffets are actually a good choice on Turkey Day, you can get your Thanksgiving fix, but you are not locked into it for your whole meal.

When dining at a table service rest I never order the Thanksgiving Selection, my Thanksgiving Dinner I make at home is miles better, so I don't even bother.

My DW and I are trying Artist Point this year for Thanksgiving. Last time back in 2007 the Packers were playing so we did ESPN Club all day, but the Packers did win!
