We have the DDP but we will be eating offsite a few times as well.

We have 2 toddlers and would like some idea for eating outside Disney.

We have a car so can drive to wherever

Some places i have heard of is the Outback Steakhouse,Sizzler.

Thanks

What about a buffet like Golden coral or Sweet tomatoes ? then you can pick out stuff the kids like and they can usually get down to eating without lots of boring hanging around.

Sizzler is a good place - a buffet so quick service for kids.

I didn't like the outback (I know it's a sin on these boards) and service was a bit slow for the kids.
I prefer to stick with the cheaper places when I've got kids with me, just find it's less stressful - so we go for Perkins, Dennys, IHOP etc.

We love to go to Cracker Barrel - Its fantastic home-cooked food at great prices and they are all around Orlando.

There is also a quaint shop attached to each restaurant which my children love having a look around. It has rocking chairs with draughts boards outside and usually inside too for visitors to use.

I've attached a link for the children's menu for you to have a look at. For the grown ups, they do a fantastic roast dinner & great steaks, Friday's are usually fish & chps night - If you go try the Baked Apple Dumplin, its to die for !!

Have a great holiday :wave:

(just a note - they don't sell alcohol, but do a great fresh lemonade)

It really depends on your budget. Like most places you get what you pay for and its whether you want proper food or conveyor belt food.
