Best Counter Service in MK, Epcot, & HS

I looked back and didn't see it, but I'm curious at what's the best in these 3 parks.

Going in March, w/ 3 of the 5 kids, and doing the CS plan. A meal or 3 might be at the hotel (POR at this time), and I know 1 or 2 places we've had that have always been good, Peco's Bill is 1, Sommerfest another.

Are there any must see and must avoids? I know that it's a pretty universal type menu at most places and few have different items. But I need y'all to spill your guts about these places. Last time I went we had the TS/CS plan and most of the CS was used at the hotel.

Thanks!

Re: Best Counter Service in MK, Epcot, & HS

MK-Columbia Harbor House
Epcot-Japan, Mexico, Morroco, The Land Pavilion, Epcot, it really depends on where you are in the park when you get hungry
HS-Not one suggestion, I only do sit down because I don't like their counter

Re: Best Counter Service in MK, Epcot, & HS

I would agree with all of the others, but I think that backlot express is ok. We have also had hamburgers at some place on hollywood blvd... Can't think of the name of it now.

For Epcot- Sunshine Seasons by far in future world
MK- I like Columbia Harbor House too
AK- have you tried the picnic in the park? Sounds great...

MK - Columbia House.

How come nobody has picked the Electric Umbrella in Epcot?

ABC Commisary in HS used to be good but now it's pretty much the same old CS place.

Re: Best Counter Service in MK, Epcot, & HS

I would also highly recommend the Tangerine Cafe in Epcot.

For some strange reason, I'm a sucker for the toppings bars in the MK... especially Pecos Bills.

I also really like Casey's in the MK... just make sure that the hot dog bun comes in one piece.

Re: Best Counter Service in MK, Epcot, & HS

In MK, #1 is Cosmic Rays (they have mashed taters for little ones) #2 Pecos Bill I like their taco salad)

In AK, Flame Tree (the Turkey sandwich is yummy)

In Epcot, Sunshine Season's in FW has a good variety, in WS, they're all good. I like Mexico, but then I love Mexican food. The churro's are delish!

In HS, it's food...no real preference

Re: Best Counter Service in MK, Epcot, & HS

Thanks guys. I've eaten at some of these places but it was long long ago. As for HS & Epcot we will only be at each park 1/2 the day since we want 2 days in MK. Maybe I can get dh to do HS in the AM and therefore avoid any meals there??? lol that or go there after lunch and then chance dinner at HS. I think the only place dh has eaten (myself included) at HS is the Sci Fi dinner theater.

Some of the places mentioned I was thinking about trying...hmmm

Re: Best Counter Service in MK, Epcot, & HS

MK: Columbia Harbour House has very healthy options, but I love the chicken noodle soup at Cosmic Ray's.
Epcot: Have to agree with the Sunshine Seasons in The Land
HS: We were unimpressed with any of the counter service we tried.
AK: We thought the Flame Tree BBQ was okay, and it was nice to sit by the water - not so nice to get attacked by the birds. Be careful!
