    Bought a $7 lemonade. Drank it. Asked for a refill. The future lead in the Villains musical working behind the counter yells “No refills!” I get that you’re making 💰 selling crappy lemonade in a paper cup with no refills….. How hard is it to be polite or at least throw some adjective in and make a complete sentence?

    If your after good food then this is not the place to go, burgers taste like rubber sludge would almost consider them more likely to be brought back up, the service however was fast using the mobile app but this could be down to the food just being slapped up and reheated, wouldent trust it with any white meat if that’s how they do the red. Atmosphere was ok the animatronic entertainer was good for a laugh.

    The food here was decent but not as good as other locations on WDW property or what I've had here before. There is a large outdoor dining area with lots of tables. This is probably the largest quick-service location in the Magic Kingdom.

    Lunch by the castle! We had burguers and it was really good. I ordered through the Disney app to be faster and it really was considering we were there during the summer. I will definitely go back!

    The epitome of mediocre theme park food. Offerings are boring/generic. Service was slow. No cool theming except for Ray himself, but seating near him is always crowded. This place feels like a giant cafeteria. Fries are cold. Food is stale like it's been sitting around for awhile. We come here every couple of months to see if the quality has improved but NOPE always trash. The cast members are at least friendly that's the only plus!
