These Are the Spots Disney Pros Eat at Disney’s Hollywood Studios

We’re gonna be honest: compared to its siblings, Disney’s Hollywood Studios really isn’t known for food. It doesn’t have the raw variety of EPCOT, the exotic flair of Animal Kingdom, or the nostalgic charm of Magic Kingdom.

However, don’t count it out just yet — there are some delicious dining options at the park!

Here are the spots we like to eat when we take a trip to the Studios.

A Surprising Breakfast Gem: Docking Bay 7

Going all the way to Galaxy’s Edge for breakfast seems like a risky move, considering how crowded it can be for rope drop. However, this spot’s prime location makes it an ideal choice for a post-ride breakfast, since it’s a short distance away from Slinky Dog Dash in Toy Story Land and Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run.

Of course, the quality of the food doesn’t hurt. The breakfast here is top-notch, with the Rising Suns Breakfast Platter being a particularly filling favorite. Blue potatoes, eggs, pork sausage, and a tiny cinnamon roll? Sign us up!

Note that currently Docking Bay 7 is only open for lunch and dinner. For now, you can head right next door to Ronto Roasters you can grab a hearty (and equally delicious) breakfast!

Lunch and Dinner are also excellent here, providing savory and satisfying delights like Fried Endoran Tip-Yip.

For our readers who don’t eat meat, the Felucian Garden Spread is also considered to be one of the best vegetarian dishes in the park.

Perfect for Quick Bites: Ronto Roasters

Hot dogs are classic theme park fare, but Ronto Roasters elevates it to a fine art.

Wrapped in pita, topped with coleslaw and shredded pork, and drizzled with a black peppercorn sauce, this Ronto Wrap elevates the humble pork sausage to a gustatory delight.  The portability of this meal also makes it perfect for a grab and go.

The Best Spot for a Drink: Hollywood Brown Derby Lounge

Oga’s Cantina is going to give you a truly unique experience, which is why it’s been such a popular spot since Galaxy’s Edge opened. However, it’s important to point out that it’s reservation-only, and also has a two-drink limit.

Oga’s Cantina has a REALLY cool theme.

Now, if you want a touch of class, the Hollywood Brown Derby is the spot. While the main restaurant is a wonderful (if pricey) Signature Table Service experience, the lounge is the perfect spot to grab whatever beverage will best tickle your tastebuds.

Our Favorite Sit-down Spot: 50’s Prime Time Cafe

Theme parks are kitschy. There’s really no escaping it. Especially when a fair number of meals might result in a face-to-face with Goofy.

Now, we’ll admit Disney has a mixed track record with kitsch. Hester and Chester’s Dino-Rama has gotten a…mixed reception, to keep it simple. Then, the less we say about the original California Adventure at Disneyland Resort, the better.

However, one place where kitsch really works? The kitschen! Er… kitchen!  That’s why 50’s Prime Time Café is one of our favorite spots to eat at Hollywood Studios.

50’s Prime Time Cafe

This place takes the campy aesthetic of 1950s television and runs with it, with retro architecture and linoleum floors.

However, don’t expect TV dinners or horrible gelatin monstrosities here; Mom’s kitchen serves some of the finest food at the park. Oh, did we mention that this place takes the “when you’re here, you’re family” thing completely literally? Guests who don’t eat their veggies might end up getting scolded!

Though, you can always opt out of the show, or skip it entirely by heading to the Tune In Lounge, where you can still enjoy the decor and full menu without being reprimanded by your Aunt/server. Either way, you can enjoy some of the best food Hollywood Studios has to offer while enjoying some classic shows.

  1. 50 PTC best value in the park IMO- Great vibe and atmosphere. Food is top notch old school favorites- Brown Derby Cobb salad is a must try as well-

  2. The problem with 50s PTC is you always end up waiting 30 minutes or more past your reservation time which totally throws off your evening plans.

    1. You’re right. We’ve never gotten our table close to our reservation time. Eventually we decided the food wasn’t worth the wait.
