Who has eaten at the yacht club galley??? What'd you think about the food? Service? Does it usually get crowded in the afternoon? what was your favorite dish? Thanks!

Food is good but not great. It's just a coffee-shop type of restaurant, good for a simple sit-down meal at a reasonable price (as Disney goes). I don't think it gets crowded very often -- ADR is usually not necessary. When we were there I had the shrimp salad croissant with clam chowder. The sandwich was yummy but the shrimp salad was awfully runny. Everyone else enjoyed their lunch too. I'd go back in a minute if I were in the Epcot area, but it's not really worth a special trip. It's a good place to be aware of if Beaches & Cream is too crowded -- just duck down the corridor to YCG.

we eat lunch there at least 1 time/trip. My fiance loves the club sandwich, and I've always been happy with my selections. I've enjoyed the chicken caesar salad and the mozzarella and tomato sandwich, off the top of my head. They also give you yummy bread and butter when you are seated.
It's never been crowded but we tend to eat lunch around 1. Not sure if it's more or less crowded earlier than that.
We're planning to try b'fast there in October, I am dying to try the crab cakes benedict!

We ate there in early March. It was a place that I always wanted to try but never got around to it. I easily got a reservation for 6:40 PM just a few days before our trip.

I liked the place and am seriously considering it for a big family reunion lunch next year. It's not a stuffy environment but it is a nice atmosphere. No dress code. The restaurant was a little over half full (or half empty if you are a pessimist).

I got the half roasted chicken and it was a true "Disney chicken on steroids" thing with a huge breast that even Frank Perdue would be in envy of. My husband got the steak choice with some sort of light sauce on top. Here's the telling point of our dinner. My husband, the ketchup freak, did not need ketchup for his steak. He didn't need any condiment at all! That just doesn't happen. I told my son about it when we got home and he wanted a photo to prove it! I also got an appetizer of the clam chowder and it was perfect for me. Not a ton of vegetables, not overriden by potatoes, and there actually were clams in the cup. Like I said, perfect for me. But it filled me up enough that after the entree, I couldn't eat dessert. And I wanted Boston Creme Pie!

The service was really good. Borderline outstanding. We didn't have alcohol and both drinks were refilled immediately for free. I even had a "speciality" drink of the red, white and blue Sprites (cherry, regular, and blueberry).

The best was when we were walking out. HUGE basket of hard candies to be enjoyed. I don't know what it was about those hard candies but it became a battle with my husband and me. It was like we were kids again. He wanted to eat his all that night. I wanted to keep mine and savor them. He pouted when his were gone and I wouldn't share (OK, I ended up sharing them).

Good experience for us.

I actually ate lunch there yesterday (for the first time, I might add). I was with a group of 7 women. Service was outstanding, drinks refilled without asking, food arriving at table quickly.

I had the salad with steak and blue cheese -- it was a large salad with fresh tomatoes. A+ Another woman had the ruben and she said it was excellent, too. Some had the soup & sandwich combo, they said the clam chowder was great. The only complaint I heard was from 2 women that had the creme brulee and they said it had some time of seasoning in it they didn't like.

I'll be back and drag the DH with me!
