Thanks for the decor photos, they have made this report

We always end up rewatching King of the Hill when we stay in a villa, it seems to always be on?!
I'm glad you appreciated the decor photos

Well, I wouldn't bother with BWW if I was you...

You're right, we always used to watch it because it was always on. Such a great show

Your villa looked gorgeous, I love all the African decor.
Pity about Buffalo Wild Wings, I was looking forward to trying that one as it's only 5 mins from Formosa!
I love all your trippies (must do better at leaving a comment), thanks for taking the time to share x
Thanks for reading (this one and all the others), I appreciate every comment, so thank you for taking the time

I've always liked the sound of that chicken sandwich at Brown Derby, we are going back this year and I'm really looking forward to it, one of our few ADRs that hasn't been tweaked!

We didn't enjoy Buffalo Wild Wings either, and I had been looking forward to going for years!
I think she was (marginally)!

We were impressed by Brown Derby too.

I'm glad others have also said they didn't like BWW, it's nice to feel like we're not alone!

Looking forward to the rest!
Well it certainly isn't as cheap as you would expect, and when it tastes as bad as ours did and you know there are places nearby on Disney that are so much better, you wonder what the point is!

Shame about Buffalo Wild Wings.
Thanks for reading. Crayons & a book: great idea

Yes! Yet another disliker of BWW

...And another. Thanks for commenting

Love the trip reports 🖒🖒🖒

If you're going to pay that much, you want a plate at least!

The food tasted like it was from a High School gym!

How have you only now had poptarts!? You have a lot of poptart eating to catch up on!

Sorry your meal was so rubbish! That's expensive for some crappy fast food!

Thanks for sharing
Hey Sam. You wrote 'crappy' twice in one reply. Do you think that's some kind of 'crappy' record?

I am now a poptart convert. Why our cupboards aren't full of them now, I just don't know! Jo... ?!

Thanks for reading and leaving 'crappy' comments...

Looks like you had a fab day apart from that though. My husband is dying to be the Rebel Spy
I'd love to be the rebel spy too. I was once the guy that had to buy churros on Monsters Inc Laugh Floor.

Such a shame that it wasn't good for you.
But it sounds like you had a great day regardless
I love Isabella's trip report :P
Booo, a BWW fan... (only joking!)

Thanks for reading

Thanks Joan. It was a shame, but it seems we're not alone!

Brown Derby or Buffalo Wild Wings... hmm tough choice...

Sounds a great day was had
I know this is a bit late, so glad you guys were ok, must've been scary even though you were in the relative safety of a Disney Resort.

You never say the cowboy? I'm sorry to hear that!

You made the right choice avoiding BWW

Thank you Maddy

You definitely made the right decision to avoid BWW. We liked Manny's but probably wouldn't rush back, not after visiting Longhorns (later in the trip) which we thought was much better.

Still gutted they shut the secret entrance to DHS.

Hang on. You’d never had pop tarts until then?! Whoa!

Ah such a shame about BWW! The last time we went the service was terrible, but the food was still good. Maybe to be avoided going forward!

Thanks for sharing!

What a fab day! Love the look of HBD and it was such a bargain with your discount.

So cool that Isabella was the rebel spy!

What a shame about the evening meal

Your evening sounded lovely and relaxing! OMG Amarula that takes me back I haven't had that in years!

TFS xx

Well I certainly won't go back to BWW.

Yes, the secret DHS entrance shutting was a real shame

I plan on trying pop tarts again next week

Thanks for reading. Jo described it as tasting like fruity Baileys! Does that help?

I'm with you on BWW after hearing rave reviews on here we went last August and found it to be not great and we really didn't like inside the bar, it wasn't cheap and the food was not great. We won't be returning this year I know what much. Great day at HS though but why no ToT? It's my favourite ride I can't wait to ride in August I really missed it this year 🤗
