What is your favourite dining experiences.....

[KayleeUK]

......in the four WDW theme Parks (MK,AK,MGM & EPCOT)?

I know how we all like discussing food so I thought we could list our favourites and why they are our favourites

OK I will start....

Magic Kingdom

A find this year for us was Pinocchio Village Haus in Fantasyland. We had never tried this before, it is a counter service restaurant. We visited around dinner time (6pm) it was quite quiet. Had some great pizza's and a lovely Strawberry Shortcake

Animal Kingdom

Now we do like the character breakfast Donald's Breakfastosaurus , It is always our first park and meal on all of our trips so far. Mickey is there so that has to be a plus. Although there are mixed reviews on the food here we have always found it good If you get an Early ADR on a non EMH day you will be first in the queue for EE

MGM Studios

Another new restaurant for us this year was '50s Prime Time Cafe I was a bit aprehensive about this one, because of the antic's that go on. Although our server took a shine to DH The food was good and plentiful. For dessert we had smores YUM!!! One we will return to.

EPCOT

Now I find it hard to pick one from here, not because I don't like any but because we usually go during the food and Wine festival and munch our way around the world But we have been to Chef de France before which was lovely and the San Angel Inn. Out of these I think I would pick the San Angel Inn for the atmosphere and the margaritas

So guys join in on this remember this list is about our favourites only. Looking forward to seeing your comments and if there are any of your favourites I could put on my list to try.

Magic Kingdom

Peco Bills Love the burgers from this place and the fixin's bar is great

Animal Kingdom

Had a great meal at the Rain Forest Cafe at AK. Large portions and an extensive menu.

MGM Studios

Had a nice buffet dinner at Hollywood and Vine last December. Plenty of choice and some very nice dishes. Backlot Express is ok for counter service and is usually quite quiet.

EPCOT

It's a toss up between the Marrakesh and Le Cellier. I think the belly dance just swings it for the Marrakesh though

 

[mikki.young]

MK - Columbia Harbour House for sitting upstairs and people watching out the windows
Epcot - Le Cellier although there is also great character interaction with the Land Grill
MGM - Mama Melroses. Not to everyones taste but nice pizza and we can usually get a walk in despite DDP
AK - not our favourite place to eat but we enjoy the Flame Tree BBQ

In the resorts we like Olivias for Breakfast, Concourse Steak House for lunch (or dinner) and Artist Point / Jikos for Dinner.

Right lets have a think, havent done many Table Service dining, but loads of counter service, so here go's:

Animal Kingdom - Donald's Breakfastosaurus
Love the character breakfast here, great interaction, and Ive always found the food plentiful and good value. Would do this again.

Epcot - Yorkshire Fish and Chip Shop
The best fish and chips over there in my opinion. Nothing like sitting outside the Rose and Crown with fish and chips and a cool beer on a hot day, people watching.
Also The Electric Umbrella
Only discovered this place this year, and they do the best Roast Beef and Cheese Sub Roll.

Magic Kingdom - Peco Bills
Another first for us this year and love it for the burgers and the toppings bar.

MGM- The Writers Stop
Tiny little bookshop/Coffee House in the middle of the park. Outstanding value, wonderful cookies/Bagels and Coffee, Tea, Milk etc. Great place to stop and get something quick on the run, never seen it busy and the White chocolate and Macadamia nut cookies are out of this world.

 

[traceycooper]

MK - CP character breakfast
MGM's - 50's prime time
EPCOT - tryed san angel but not that keen, gonna try morroco or japan next time (or both!! )
ANIMAL KINGDOM - Donald's Breakfastosaurus

Fav WDW hotel restaurant - calofornia grill & boma

 

[KayleeUK]

What do you like about those Tracey??

 

[jtlover]

Thanks guys jtlover and Natalie why did you choose some of yours ?? What makes them your favourite?

Le Cellier, because the filet steak is something else! CP as it is a buffet and lots of selection and it is bright in the room. Tusker as it is the best value cs for a proper meal.

We are doing Le Cellier again in August - I am also nuts about Disney mashed potatoes

The cakes are yummy here but it is a very small place to eat in

Was hoping to keep this little place a secret!! Like you say, it's usually quiet - even when the rest of the park is heaving.

Lets see.....

Magic Kingdom-Columbia Harbour House for there tuna fish sandwhich.

Epcot-Very hard decision for me. Rose and Crown has the best view, Biergarten, even though I didnt like the food, the atmosphere was amazing..Along with Mexico. But my all time favorite is Japan. The Teppanyaki Grill is amazing.I have never eaten so much before.

MGM-Hands down Sci-Fi Dine. We tryed 50's Prime time but had a terrible experience.

Animal Kingdom-Not to many places to pick from....I did have breakfast at the Rain Forest once...

 

[Merylj]

MK - Crystal Palace
MGM - Starring Rolls

[KayleeUK]

Merylj what do you like about your choices?

 

[DisneyJo]

MK - CP as it was the only place my DD got to see her fave Piglet (food's good too!)
Epcot - Japan, having your food cooked in front of you with steaming Mickey onions is great.
AK - Pizzafarri, great Caesar salad. (didn't try pizza )
MGM - Nowhere yet trying Mama Melroses next time.
