    Default Best Quick Service at Epcot

    We will be at Epcot on Sept. 30th, this will be our first time staying on property and using a dining plan. Would love some suggestions for quick service.

    Columbia Harbour House is our favourite quick service by far. Food is good and it is NEVER busy.

    There are so many great quick service locations in Epcot. Sunshine seasons in future world has some really great items. And pretty much all the countries in world showcases have something to offer. We tend to "snack around the world" for lunch in Epcot. We order one meal to share in each country. Of course we can't hit every country in one day, but we try to select new places on each trip.

    Tangerine Café (Moroccco)
    Sunshine Seasons (The Land in FutureWorld)
    Lotus Blossom Café (China)
    Katsura Grill (Japan)
    Kringla Bakery (Norway)

    I like the suggestion from another poster about snacking around the world as lunch. That sounds like fun & we may steal that idea next trip.

    Best quick service is the seasons in the land pavilion. You have a wide variety, and I actually feel like you get a good amount of good for what you pay-which is a little less than normal.

    Sunshine Seasons without a doubt. They offer fresh menu items that you cannot find anywhere else. For example they have fresh rotisserie chicken, goat cheese salad, ceasar salad, mongolian beef, sandwiches, soups and a phenomenal bakery. Get the strawberry shortcake if you go there!

    I also recommend anything in World Showcase that grabs you. My suggestion is as you're walking around see which country's food appeals to you. They're all equally amazing in my opinion and it all depends on which type of cuisine you enjoy.

    Have a good trip!

    I have to agree with Tangerine Cafe. It is a place we always stop by.

    I'll add my vote for the bakery in France. Lots of new yummy stuff!

    I know everyone loves Sunshine Seasons, but it just hasn't ever really worked for us.

    La Cantina De San Angel has some nice mexican food, but watch out for the seagulls! They are viscous over there!

    By far though, our favorite is Katsura Grill in Japan. You can't beat the food combined with the view! Best bang for your buck! And the service is far and beyond the best in EPCOT!

    Sunshine Seasons in Epcot. Get the Pork Chop with homemade bbq sauce and garlic mashed pot. It is by far the best counter service meal at WDW imho.

    Spell checker at work: I think you mean vicious, not viscous. Viscous is "of a gelatinous nature or consistency; sticky; thick; adhesive". Although the sticky, thick, adhesive part of the definition could apply to seagulls.

    Thanks for the mental image. Made my day.

    The Shrimp Fried Rice at Lotus Blossom is one of my favorites. The Ginger ice cream was also surprisingly delicious.

    You will be there for food and wine which is a gelatinous seagull of a different color!

    The food booths take snack credits on many items.

    Given the wealth of unique choices at EPCOT during F&W I would say skip the "normal" options and dive in!

    I have not done the food plan in many years but it used to be you could use a table service for 2 snacks (or something to that effect). I defer to others if that is still the case.

    Even if it is not, use the snack credits you have available or go out of pocket if you have to. The food choices during F&W are out of this world.

    I totally agree about skipping CS and using your snack credits on the F&W booths, so many yummy things to choose from.
