No clue, where to start?

Hi All,

Been almost 12 years since we last visited WDW, what are your top suggestions for each of the Disney parks for places to eat?

Thanks

Dan

Magic Kingdom - Crystal Palace / Skipper Canteen
Epcot - Coral Reef / Via Napoli
Hollywood Studios - Mama Melrose
Animal Kingdom - Yak & Yeti / Tiffins

[Rescuer]

My reasonable ( in Disney prices) and good table service for each park would be:

MK - Skippers

AK - Yak and Yeti (accepts Landry cards)

HS - Mama Melrose

Epcot - Nine Dragons.

[Bouncing Tigger]

MK: Crystal Palace & Liberty Tree Tavern
Epcot: Space 220, Biergarten, Garden Grill
AK! Yak & Yeti

Watch some Paging Mr Morrow vlogs, he does loads of dining reviews.

Ooh yes the yak and yeti in Animal Kingdom is delicious!

Are you looking for character dining at all?

[Shooby doo]

MK - Skippers or one of the MK resorts
EP- Teppon Edo or Via Napoli
HS- 50's Prime or Mama Melrose
AK- Yak & Yeti or Tusker

TBH I would only eat at these if I wasn't leaving the park to go elsewhere

For me it would have to be:
MK - Be our Guest (for lunch)
AK - Satu’li Canteen in Pandora
HS - Docking Bay 7 in Galaxy’s Edge
Epcot - eat around the world especially if there’s a festival and lots of extra booths

[orlandoamber]

Do you mainly dine in quick service (QS) or table service (TS)?

For QS, my top suggestions would be:
Magic Kingdom - Casey’s Corner
Hollywood Studios - Woody’s Lunchbox
Epcot - If you’re going during a festival season, snack around the food booths!
Animal Kingdom - Satuli Canteen (and Yak and Yeti Local Food Cafes; there’s a TS version of this place too)

For TS, we personally prefer eating at the restaurants outside of the parks, so either ones in hotels, on the Boardwalk or in Disney Springs.

You might want to check out the dining report section as plenty of people have done food reports including QS and TS options:

Magic Kingdom- don’t eat inside, walk out of the gate, 5 mins to Contemporary and Steakhouse 71 (assuming it will be as good as Wave). Vastly superior to Skipper Canteen etc. I wasn’t impressed with Skipper Canteen and my meal was on Disney which would usually make it extremely enjoyable, but even that didn’t save it. The lamb portion they have even cut down compared to the photos with one less chop!

If you have to stay in MK, I’d either eat quick serve at Columbia Harbour House (caveat being it may have gone downhill since Dec 2019 with cuts) or The Plaza.

Best is subjective. For example, we hate paying through the nose for overpriced, underwhelming food. We also find 9 Dragons a great choice at Epcot and this is likely the only Disney park ADR I’ll do over Xmas.

Would agree with Yak and Yeti at AK. Get a Landry card and walk in whenever you want.

HWS I wouldn’t bother with a sit down meal there. You are better walking down to Boardwalk or getting the boat. Or getting quick serve at Star Wars.
