We talk about rides and coasters enough, so how about we turn our focus to dining? What are some places you eat at parks. List one, two, or ten.

For me, I like eating at Das Festhaus or Bistro 205 at Busch Gardens. Festhaus has a nice variety, A/C, and a show to boot. The Bistro has some delicious wings and a wonderful setting right next to Griffon. Kings Dominion, I enjoy the pizzeria. Not much else. I usually always grab a cheesesteak from that little midway in Dollywood near where they do the tree show for Christmas. Delicious cheesesteaks!

As far as places in Disney World, I don't remember much. Casey's Corner in MK was good for snackin, and we ditched the group to get Tacos from the mexican place in EPCOT.

So what about you guys? Post suggestions and comments

Kings Island has a good variety of food. The pizza is one of the best in any park I've been to (not speaking from a bias here). Skyline is always great when one can handle it, Panda Express is good, but those are just for starters. The absolute BEST place to eat is Outer Hanks on the boarder of Oktoberfest and Coney Mall. They have a great variety of items including fish and shrimp. Best of all is an outdoor BBQ pit where they cook the essentials, corn on the cob, some fish, and FANTASTIC ribs at pretty descent prices. Some other things of note are GIANT fresh cut fries close to the Beast, Graeters Ice Cream, and of course, the infamous blue ice cream. In terms of atmosphere, I love to eat by the fountain on International Street. Its a bit cooler around the fountain, its a gorgeous area of the park, and people watching can be fun.

Dollywood has a smorgasbord of great food. There isn't a stall there with bad food from what I've had there. Its part of what makes me consider them my favorite park I've been to. Cedar Point has a good variety of food as well, which is kind of expected from a park of their caliber. Hershey is a runner up to those.

Of course, there is Disney and Universal Studios which I've been to, which will probably be mentioned a lot. As with CP, kind of expected. I think this thread is more for the surprising and overlooked dining options.

I was not impressed with the food of Kings Dominion or Six Flags Great Adventure.

I'd also like to ask another question if I may. Of the traditional park fare, what is your favorite?

Mine- Funnel Cakes!

Funnel Cakes omg :drool: And yeah KD has an Outer Hanks. I had a chicken sandwich from there, as I hate seafood.

I love the food at Knoebels, especially at the Phoenix junction. The food is cheap, and really good. My favorite is the rotini alfredo at the Phoenix junction. Dessert-wise, I love the peanut butter milkshakes at the place close to the Satellite. At other parks, I love Patio Pizza at Dorney, and Famiglia's at Hershey.

Panda Express at Cedar Point. I haven't eaten anywhere else within the park in the last 3-4 years. The smell of lo mein while in line for MF gets me every time. That and its not quite as overpiced as the rest of the places. I really want to try Pink's at CP though.

[Coaster Princess]

Dollywood Aunt Grannys

[Robert Taylor]

La Rosa's inside and outside the park at KI. lol.

No offense, but I didn't think Kings Island was all that good for food options. The park was ok and the food was ok at best.

Cedar Point is my fav park for food.

[The BeastFan]

^When were you last at Kings Island? That might explain a lot.

[Vater]

Cedar Point is my fav park for food.

Methinks you need to get to Busch or Dollywood...or most places not owned by Cedar Fair or Six Flags.
