Ate here May 2 around 8PM. This was not our first visit and won't be our last. The Original Beef is great, The Subs are better than Subway and/or Quizno's. Hard to find a seat and very fast moving lines. Not a relaxing meal but a good one.
DVC Members get a 10% discount just show your membership card and ID. Worth a trip to Downtown Disney to eat much better than most Theme Park Fast Food.

This was our first time trying the Fish and Chips. Where we live in Wisconsin Friday night fish fry is kind of a traditional meal. It too is usually fried Cod ( or walleye ) and French Fries.
This may be traditional English Pub Grub but it was every bit as good as what we get at home here at most local bars on a Friday night.
I would say this was about the best value for what I got of any Quick Serve meal.
If you like fried foods and like fish this is the place to eat while in Epcot.

Pecos Bills was the best place to get a burger in Disney in the past. Two years ago it was down right bad. We tried it again this year during our 05/02 thru 05/09 vacation and now again think that it is at least an OK burger. The burger itself is much leaner then in past. I suspect that is due to a more health conscience customer base. Two years ago the bun the burger was served on was like a roofing shingle dry with a dry lifeless burger. Now the bun is a softer white bread bun that is more traditional for a fast food burger. The Cheese was actually melted on the burger as well. What makes this place is the great topping bar. Sautéed Onions and Mushrooms, Cheese sauce for the fries. For what a burger costs here you can get a much better burger in places off premise. No they are not Disney Theme Park so you pay for the address as well. This is not bad but there are other places in the Magic Kingdom that offers better value.

Casey's offer a good product. In years past the hot dogs were served on a Midwest style soft white hot dog bun. Two years ago the bun was a multi grain new England style roll that was dry as cardboard and way too much bread for the amount of hot dog you got. This year things are looking up. Still a New England style Hot Dog roll which is too much bread but now it is back to the softer white bread style which makes for a much better Dog. With the great fixings bar with cheese sauce for the fries or dogs you get your monies worth or better at this place.
Pros:
Better than two years agoCons:

We fished 05/05 at 10:00 AM. The Day was very windy but sunny and nice. We were picked up at the Wilderness Lodge and spent the whole time fishing in Bay Lake. Our first spot was near the docks at the Cotemporary. Lots of fish. We then moved to a more open water area on the other end of the Lake but due to the high wind the boat would not hold with both an anchor and power pole. Next a run back to the other end where the wind was not quite as bad, still not able to hold the boat due to wind. Then along the front side of the Garden Building at the Cotemporary. Good fishing out here again. Last was near the dock to Ft Wilderness where the Bass were chasing the bait as you reeled in.
This is a great experience for anyone who likes to fish. The guides will do as much or as little as you want them to in terms of handling the fish, baiting hooks with Shiners, netting fish ETC. You also have the option of fishing with artificial bait.
This is one event/attraction at Disney that is NOT scripted and that makes it that much more special. Well worth the money.
Pros:
Lots of fishCons:

Good Counter Service meal. Pizza is good both in quality and portion. If you don't want the salad just ask at the register where you order you get just the pizza at a slightly lower cost. It was very crowded when we visited but the cast did seem to be keeping up well. Seating was only found outside which was not a problem the day we were there.

We have eaten at Chef Mickey's many times over the years. This visit was 4 adults on 05/06.
We all like the all you eat food. Parmesan Potatoes and Beef carved to order with peal and eat shrimp are the best. Even with all adults age 19-55 the characters still visited and took pictures.
What made this trip real good was a favorite dessert was not on the buffet at the time of our visit. I asked the server, Tom , and went out his way to find me some in the kitchen and deliver them to me.
This is not the place for some one that not like to eat much as the price is high. If you like to eat you can get your monies worth were for sure as well. If you like to eat and want easy Character Time with the kids Chef Mickey's can not be beat.
Pros:
Good Food, lots to eat, easy to get Character PicturesCons:

We ate here several times during our stay 05/02 thru 05/09.
Breakfast items I found to be good but a little over priced. Yes I know this is Disney but what you pay for here is free with a lot of mid priced hotels outside of Disney.
The Flatbreads were GREAT. This was the best pizza in Disney and we did eat at Pizza Planet. They are available late served hot and fresh.

Ate here on 05/08. Our party of 4 all ordered off the regular menu not the all you eat menu. Two of the omelets were ordered with out onions and peppers which made them a ham and cheese omelet. This request was taken care of by the cast with no problem. The server was very good at what he did and took great care of us. If you don't need characters and want a good breakfast with some fun with the cast this is the place to go.

Our group or 4 adults dining here for Lunch on 05/05. Three of us had the Fried Chicken and one had the Meat Loaf. We asked for different vegetables and in one case a side order of Mac Cheese. We all got just what we asked for with no problems.
Our server did tell us we would doing dishes for having our elbows on the table which was a hoot.
Prices are a little high but you are in Theme Park and what you get is a big portion and entertainment for you money so its well worth the cost.
Thanks AllEars for having the Meat Loaf recipe on the site as well.
