My amazing son, who is super excited for my upcoming two afternoons at Disney (combined with a work conference), pointed out to me this morning over breakfast that I will need to eat during the conference and that there is no better place to do that than Disney. He further pointed out that it would be smart to enter Epcot through the IG since I am most excited for world showcase stuff. He suggested (and I think he’s right) that I should eat brunch/lunch at one of the hotels near the IG to Epcot.
I was thinking maybe Trattoria Al Forno at the Boardwalk resort, eating around 11:30, but I’d love to hear folks’ suggestions of where to eat and how early a reservation I would need if I want to make sure I’m tapping into the park at 1pm on the dot. I’m open to character meals, but delicious food is much more of a priority. Thank you so much for any suggestions you can offer!

Ale & Compass is my personal favorite in that area. It’s a great deal, great food, perfect location for IG
I will say they have tended to run behind schedule for seating us at times.
But once seated it’s my fave!

Trattoria is a fabulous choice. Their breakfast is my favorite non character breakfast.

When we stayed at YC, we had breakfast at Ale & Compass and Trattoria. Love them both.

Topolinos would make a good option too!
Technically you will be able to tap in at 12:47 if you want to squeeze out every minute.

You could go for a long brunch and then take the Skyliner over to IG. @allison218 I hope you have a great time.

I’ll also recommend Ale & Compass for breakfast/brunch! What I really like about A&C is that you can order an entree just like any regular restaurant, but there’s also the option of buying a package which contains an entree + drink + access to their (small, but tasty) buffet section for an extremely reasonable price - $25, which for Disney prices is a pretty good deal.

Woah! I did not realize that there was a option to plus up the meal with a drink and the buffet. Thanks for the intel!

Just to clarify, they only do this for breakfast! (Which is why I recommend a late breakfast or brunch there.) They just have a regular menu at lunch and dinner, and I’ve never been during those times.
