Review of Erin McKenna's Bakery

As a celiac, I have to eat gluten free. I don’t have access to any GF bakeries near where I live so it is always a treat to go to Erin McKenna’s at the springs when I’m at Disney. This baker is completely gluten free, and unfortunately it is not easy making baked goods the same without gluten. For people that eat gluten filled baked goods I can understand why they would be disappointed with some of the treats at this bakery. GF baked goods just don’t hit the way gluten baked goods do. Their desserts allow me to eat something that I normally can’t have. Not all of the dessert are great but most of them are fantastic. I especially like the coffee crumb cake. Currently they have a cookie taco (with brownie in side) and it is amazing. The brownie lava cupcake is also fantastic. Personally I don’t care for the donuts as they can be a little dry. Overall, I would highly recommend for anyone who needs a good gluten free dessert.
Pros:
Great for celiacs who love desserts!Cons:

I liked very little of this dining experience. The staff was fantastic. I have Celiac Disease so eating Gluten free is a must. The waitress asked if we wanted to try the salmon and a few of us did. The piece I had was so dry and overcooked. The chicken was the best protein on the plate. The potatoes barrels were my favorite and I typically don’t care for tater tots. Overall this was not a great dining experience. The meal is overpriced for the quality of food. There are many other places I would eat any again over this restaurant.
Pros:
Good with gluten allergy, great staff, bright and colorfulCons:

I went here in January 2025 during a girls' trip with my two sisters. This was our \"first night at Disney\" celebration dinner. We knew this was a pricey choice going in, but we were absolutely enchanted from start to finish! The restaurant was still decked out in Christmas finery, and we could hardly stop taking pictures of the lovely decorations, especially the rotating display above the gazebo. All the staff we interacted with were delightful and friendly. Since some of our party are on weight loss meds, we let them know ahead of time that we would not all be ordering entrees and they were perfectly fine with that and made great suggestions accordingly. The truffle fries were absolutely delicious, as was the croque monsieur and the pasta dish we ordered. We split two desserts between the three of us and it was plenty! Both that we tried (a chocolate cake and a piece of pie) were wonderful! This was a great choice for a first night celebratory meal.
Pros:
food was delicious staff were friendlyCons:

The chicken is better than most meals on property. Real white meat chicken, hot honey sauce with okra and red peppers. A New Orleans themed treat and the sweet potato fries are perfect along with the Beignets and Lavender lemonade are sweet and refreshing accordingly

Quality Food at fair pricesCons:

My wife and I are annual passholders. We're retired and as I age my ears are becoming sensitive to loud environments. I felt the volume of the 50's music in the dining room was excessive. My wife who has good hearing felt so too. I asked our waiter if it could be lowered and he said he would check. Never happened. Never mentioned again.
I think the only restaurant as loud as Beaches and Cream is the Sci-Fi Dine-in Theater.
Our server was friendly and for the most part provided good service. Toward he end of our meal, things slowed down and it took a while to get the check. Once we had the check it took a while for him to come back and then it took a while for him to return with our credit card.
The food was decent, but nothing special. We won't be returning.
Pros:
- Our server was friendly.Cons:
- TOO LOUD - Service got slow after the initial order was taken.Review of Ale and Compass Restaurant Lunch/Dinner

We traveled with a service dog & they were super kind & accommodating. The food was good & the waiter had lots of funny jungle cruise style puns. It's a little pricey but we had the dining plan so it was fine
Pros:

I saved & decided to splurge to stay here. I will say it's not worth the extra money. I have stayed at Moderate & value resorts in the past & I can't justify the high price tag. Is it nice that there are animals you will walk around to see sure, but how many times are you going to do that? The pool was ok but other resorts have better pools. If you want a slide stay at French Quarter. The breakfast was average but both my son & I got sick from our dinner the first night I'll just say we had to stay close to a bathroom. All in all save your money for fun in the parks .

The service is excellent, the French Onion Soup is also top notch. We had the strip steak, my daughter the seafood combo, and creme brulee. All were excellent but the attentive staff really make it a standout

Had the frozen Lafeu’s Brew and Creme Brulee Crossaint both very good and shared between 4 of us but all agreed that the croissant was a very good new addition. Lefeu’s Brew is a refreshing cold drink for a hot summer day and the line moves quick
