All the Disney World Resorts have a fast food counter and/or a food court.  Some food court meals are not only excellent in taste and quality, but are reasonably priced as well.  Our favorite is the Port Orleans Riverside court. It has undergone some changes as nothing Disney stays the same forever, but it still has good options and a pleasant atmosphere. The pasta and carving stations are nice additions. Riverside has its own bakery and ice cream window and there are many choices for children’s meals. Next on our list is Coronado Springs[CS].  CS has quite a few dining options from the very casual, take-out counter to the sit-down food court and then the Mayan Grill restaurant. The new counter area is very appealing. We did a walk through over Labor Day weekend and loved the whole area. The sit-down food court has gotten more expensive, but still has many food options and great quality. They add a 10% gratuity to your bill here, which is a bit annoying, but they do clear your table and clean it up for the next guest.

Of the value resorts, Pop Century has a nice food court as does All Star Movies. They are shaped differently and have a more comfortable feel to them than All Star Sports or All Star Music which are older and rectangular. Pop Century has a slurpee machine, yeah! We like the taco salad, chicken penne alfredo, and the stirfry at Pop Century.

In general, the deluxe resorts have counter service which is so-so, the moderates and Pop Century have good food courts, and the remaining value resorts have good fast food. Next time we’ll look at dining inside the parks where there is more to choose from all the time.
