Anticipating the heat next week, where can we get a good CS meal in the parks that has indoor (air conditioned) seating???
 
We like Columbia Harbor House in MK, upstairs is usually less crowded and nice and cool.

ABC Commissary in MGM is usually very cool, food is just ok (IMHO)

Sunshine Seasons in Epcot --indoors and nice variety

AK ?? We've eaten at Tusker House but I don't recall this being particularly cool.
 
MK we usually go to Pecos Bills, Cosmic rays, or Columbia house....all have ac and good selections.
AK, Pizzafari has a good selection of sandwiches and pizzas and salads....my chicken ceasar salad was enormous and had alot of chicken in it.
MGM we go to the Backstage place and they too have the usual fare of burgers and salads....but very nice to be in...
Epcot, to many to go to, but we love to go to the Seasons, and Electric Umbrella ....both with great selections...
DTD dont forget to try out Earl of Sandwich,......delicious and alot of different types of sandwiches and salads, and soups......
 
I agree with the above posters. We especially like Cosmic Rays and Sunshine food court for their variety. ABC Commisary is always cool (AC wise) but I have yet to have anything there that was really any good.

I know you are looking for CS, but I found Rainforest (at AK) to serve such huge breakfasts they could easily be shared bringing it down to CS prices. I had the breakfast pizza and could only finish half. Plus it's nice to have a cup of coffee served in a ceramic mug. Next time, I think we'll plan a late breakfast there so we can get by with a late lunch/early dinner.
 

AK has Tusker House, Pizzafari and Restaurantosaurus.

Next week, this won't be an issue, but in August, Tusker House will shut down to become a table service (buffet). Restaurantosaurus serves McDonalds food. The only true Disney CS at AK with an indoor location is going to be Pizzafari.

Yak & Yeti is supposed to have a CS option, but no telling whether or not it will be located indoors yet.
 
MK - Columbia Harbour House is our favorite, but most of the CS here are air conditioned. Casey's is our other favorite, but has very limited seating inside, so not usually available.

Epcot - Sunshine Seasons or the American Pavillion are the only 2 we've been to that are inside. Electric Umbrella is, but it was closed last time we tried to eat there. I'm not sure when it will reopen, and I think it's just burgers anyway.

AK - Tusker House and Pizzafari are indoors I think. Our favorite here is Flame Tree BBQ, but it's outdoor seating.

MGM - The best one here is the Flatbread Grill. It is outdoors, but shading with fans, so I thought I'd mention it anyway. ABC Commissary is the only one I can think of that's indoors.
 
In the Magic Kingdom, I think the best for seating is probably Columbia Harbour House. And for Epcot I love Sunshine Seasons.
 
MK-Cosmic Rays for us too. And Pecos Bills.
Epcot-Tangierine Cafe-sort of a/c. There a few indoor tables and the food is good. :goodvibes
Also Yakitori House in Japan. Small building, can fill up quick. We escaped a tortential downpour there a few years ago. Also SS
AK-Tuskers-(Closed when we go :confused3 )
 
I love Pinocchio's Village Haus. If you go when it's not too crowded, there's a nice, but small, balcony upstairs. I love to take my food up there, take off my shoes and put my feet up on a chair for a while, while I watch the "goings on" down below.
 
Isn't Tusker House at Animal Kingdom closed? I see alot of people mentioned it but I thought it was in the process of becoming a TS buffet?

I believe that right now it is closed. Probably most people didn't notice your "next week" part of OP's question like me and were just giving a general answer for indoor CS.
 
MK- Cosmic Ray's and Pinnochio's
MGM- ABC Commissary and Backlot Express
AK- Pizzafari
Epcot- Sunshine Seasons
