French Quarter temporary food court went into operation July 11

From everything I've heard, you are exactly right!

There are about 20 tables, and a very limited menu. All of the "make-your-own" options are gone, and it feels more like a "grab & go" location than somewhere to sit an actually eat. (May I recommend the tables around the pool?)

I love POFQ, but we're not staying there this year, and I have to say I'm glad, this would be annoying!

Good thing the POR food court is awesome and huge, although I do expect the lines will be longer.

I hope the changes and updates will be on schedule. I love that resort !!

Not sure if I'm allowed to post this (it's not an official Disney website - please feel free to remove if this is against the rules!) but here is an update on an unofficial POFQ website that includes pictures of the temporary food court area and the menu offerings:

It looks not bad for the interim. Still hoping it will be back to business as usual when we are there in Nov :mickey:

Well, I think they did a great job considering !!! I'm impressed with the menu and the area allotted for the temp food court. It's not that much smaller than the typical Deluxe Resort counter service location. Good job FQ !!!!! I can't wait to see ya in November !!
