Your Thoughts: Cape May Cafe Dinner

[TheBacklot]

My friend wants to eat dinner here. I've only had their breakfast. The menu looks diverse enough but I can't really find many photos in the photo threads here of this location.

What's your opinion on the food and the location? Thanks in advance!

We have been many times and have always enjoyed it - there are tons of options from ribs to chicken, carved beef and seafood, lots of carb items, veggies, salads, soups and desserts. Have reservations for next month, cant wait for the all you can eat steamers and crab legs

We have eaten there three times and it has been a disappointment every time. Never say never but I think we are done with the dinner buffet. We find the seafood quality is extremely poor. The other foods are boring, tasteless and not worth the calories, especially the desserts.

BUT, that said, you will find varying reviews for every Disney restaurant and I am a proponent of trying it for yourself. I hope you do enjoy it, if you decide to try it,

Love, love it - have been going there many years and have yet to have a bad experience. Everything is fresh and tasty. The crab legs are hot and delicious.

No matter what reviews you get (and there will be those that don't like it, like any other restaurant on property) you must try it for yourself. Only then will you really know whether it's a keeper!!

It's one of our favorite 'must do' places to dine - sometimes twice in a 10 day trip!

Another vote for LOVE IT!!! Had dinner here in December and the entire family enjoyed it so much.

I really enjoyed it the time I had dinner there, and I booked it for my group this trip.

We are among the nay-sayers....bland food, too many people, and table and area was very dirty due to diners before us. BUT, totally agree that you should try everything. Some will like some places, some not. Tastes and timing make a difference and certainly many love it! Give it a shot!

Love it. We go every year, and it hasn't disappointed us yet.

There are lots and lots of pictures on the current Disney food picture thread.
It looks really good

Love it. It is a must on every trip.

This is the only ADR on our lineup for November that I am not too excited about because of the reviews. But my Sister and her DH ate there on their Disneymoon last November and they loved it there. They wanted to go again so we booked it. I have only been there for breakfast, so dinner is new to me. I am excited to take the boat over from Epcot and try it out! I hope its as good as some of you say it is!

We ate there in May 2013 on our last trip. It was our only TS of the trip. I'm not a big seafood fan, but there was enough variety and I thought the food was good too.

Thanks so much everyone, looks like it will be a good place to try!

Another vote for Cape May. Absolutely love this place. Probably my favorite buffet on property (Boma second).

I went earlier this month and gorged on clams and crab legs. It was fantastic!

Wow thank you for sharing! The food looks great! and the desserts look amazing! I am getting more excited for it now lol.

I can't get excited about any of the buffets, Cape May included. It wasn't bad; which is about as good as any of these can realistically rated, IMO. You could certainly do worse. Just keep your expectations in check.

YES! I did enjoy it... drats, now I may want to put this on our list!

I'm happy to see that the dessert menu has been improved since last we went!

Ditto! We are not fans, but sometimes you just have to try things for yourself and make your own decision.

Good luck!

Awesome pics!

We love Cape May Dinner Buffet and it's must for us every trip. We stuff ourselves on crab legs and other yummy seafood items. There is a great variety of items and plenty for us all to eat.
