stefa70 205 Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 I enjoy taking the boat from the fort to the Wilderness Lodge to Roaring Forks counter service. They have some great deli sandwiches, along with standard burgers, fries, chicken nuggets......Pretty inexpensive in Disney standards. Tables outside by the pool allow for great scenery while you eat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaddysCoolTV 4 Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 I agree!!! We usually ride our bikes down there and eat at least once every trip. Make sure you take you refillable mugs with you. They have a lot more choices to chose from to fill your mug than the Fort. :dance: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ftwildernessguy 778 Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Lunch at Roaring Forks is a tradition for us. They also have the same great chili they serve up at Trail's End. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaveInTN 3,247 Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Yep, RF is one of our favorites too. DW loves the chicken and apple salad they have. I really enjoy the flatbreads, the chili, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the magic cookie bar thingys!!! :rofl: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rhonda (aka Roz) 7 Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Same here! I like the chicken & apple salad, and the flatbreads! :popcorn: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
H in SC 85 Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 We love it too, eat there once every trip. :banana:OOPS I was talking about Whispering Canyon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Otter Spotter aka Debbie 58 Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 I loved R.F. back before they re-modeled and changed the menu options. They had a great steak & cheese sandwich and every night had the chef's featured special. Saturday was the open-faced, hand-carved turkey sandwich with mashed potatoes & gravy. It was awesome, and I wish they would bring that back. IIRC, they changed everything around 2005. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigdisneydaddy 9 Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 We stopped there for lunch during our Jan visit and wasnt real impressed. The line took forever to move and there didnt seem to be much flow in the prep area at the grill, it just took a lot longer than it should to plate up cheeseburgers and pizza. I think I am spoiled by eating my own food at the trailer. I dont have a lot of tolerance for overpriced mediocre food. Now.... WCC is whole other story, we love that place !

Kazlac4 3 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 We had the tuna sandwich for lunch one day and it really hit the spot. We sat by the pool and listened to the DJ, it was a nice time for all! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ftwildernessrick 10 Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 How about the ice cream. Good stuff. They really need to bring back the soft serve at the Fort. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

While we still enjoy it as a fast food type of option..it used to be WAY better. There was also a BBQ pulled pork sandwhich they featured. It was the same as what was served upstairs in the Whispering Canyon. That's long gone. We do enjoy taking our food outside to the terrace area, or even sitting poolside. Especially in the morning when it's still quiet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
campingpixi 11 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Can I say Hello Bounty Platter!!! When we go on vacation we are not the type to cook our meals or get up early or go to bed early!! This place was perfect.. we would roll in there about 10am and order 5 bounty platters for breakfast and it had so much food by the time it came for lunch it was 2 or 3 pm and dinner was always late! They sure do know how to get your day started with that meal!! Oh and don't get me started on the GIANT nesquick milk they got too!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest starbuc71 Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 I have to say, for the mediocer food you usually get for the price at Disney, Roaring fork is awsome. The burgers are alright, but the selection of kids items, desserts and other things are great. I guess we enjoy it so much because of the low amount of food options you have at the fort. I think if they could have the same set up at the fort just like roaring fork, it would be a gold mine for Disney and a blessing for the campers. Win, Win Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ImDownWithDisney 342 Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 I probably ate 20 of their philly cheesesteaks on our honeymoon there 10 yrs ago. Now I am hooked on the chicken, apple, walnut salads. I ate 5 on our last trip. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

freshlybarked 4 Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 It s a must do for us on our last day. Since we live only 90 minutes away, if we plan to leave on a Sunday I usually book Sunday night for a Monday checkout. That gives us until Sunday night to leave. We take a bike ride over to WL, look in the shop, sit in the lobby and have lunch at RF. It's a nice way to end our trip. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
