Disney Springs Quick Service — Best Counter Service Options

Disney Springs is huge, which could be difficult to find a good meal if you’re not prepared for the adventure! For us, we’re very rarely at Disney Springs during the day because of our preference to be in the parks as much as possible – but what about arrival days, departure days or times that you just need a grab a bite to eat and find yourself at the district?

There are four areas of Disney Springs and 35+ quick service spots, so let’s break this list down by location. Many of the locations on the official list specialize on things that may not be enough for a meal…aka gelato or cupcakes…but that’s for another list:)

HIGHLIGHTS

BLAZE PIZZA

Can’t understate this, but finding a customized meal at a price that won’t break the bank and actually fills you up…Blaze is our choice. We’ve found ourselves in the Town Center district hot-spot a number of times and it’s definitely a highlight! Just remember to sign-up for their loyalty program on the Blaze Pizza app and you’ll earn points from eating a great pizza!

CHICKEN GUY

Just around the corner from Planet Hollywood and the Coca-Cola Store, Chicken Guy! by Guy Fieri is a gotta see. I’ve eaten there a couple times, but it’s usually late night and after all the crowds have dispersed…because waiting in a line when it’s crazy hot outside doesn’t really appeal to me. From the quality of the chicken tenders to the number of sauces (10+), you’ll want to keep this on your radar.

THE POLITE PIG

BBQ and a cool setting…this is a hidden gem that’s starting to shine through the competition at Disney Springs. Located right across from UNIQLO and around the corner from the World of Disney, it’s perfect location with table-service standards at counter-service prices.

Polite Pig has become one of our favourite dining locations at Walt Disney World. All of it.


FINAL THOUGHTS

Disney Springs is huge spot for shopping, dining and entertainment! You’re going to want to stay on top of trends, as something that I’ve learned over the years of playing at Disney World is that the only thing that changes more than traffic patterns on the roadways are the menus! 🙂
