The best dining experience out of all the resorts. My family often visits the restaurants at many of the resorts around the Walt Disney World property. We’ve lived local for years. This was genuinely such a FUN experience & the food was phenomenal. Kid friendly for sure. Bring your family!

Well..... let's just say your in for wild time at this place and it dont matter if your a kid or adult. This place hold a special place in me from the first time i went as a kid to today as an adult going with mine and is by far in its own league and one of the best places to stop in wile visiting disney. Located at the wilderness lodge you will find it. The food is great, definitely get the all you can eat skillets its worth it trust me. Breakfast, lunch, dinner you will be happy and full. They have the annual horse race with adults and kids and of course be weary when asking for ketchup, if you know you know. And if you dont well you will find out! The service is by far some of the best in disney, the atmosphere is like no other. The prices vary, it is disney lol. However when in Rome th

I had so much fun here. Initially, I was a bit nervous because I’m introverted and it’s known that the servers here mess with you on purpose. But our dinner ended up being so so so fun and hilarious. We had a birthday boy in the group and so of course we had a “birthday party” for him. Our server was so funny and entertaining. For food we each ordered the skillets which are all you can eat bbq. The skillet sizes get progressively bigger if more of your group shares the same skillet type. For instance, if all four of you order the Traditional Skillet, they’ll bring a large skillet to share and put it right in the middle of the table. The bigger the skillet…the more fun :) The bbq was great. Beef brisket was my favorite. I noticed a lot of tables were for four people so if you have five or

We visited Whispering Canyon Café on Friday 20th of February. To be completely honest, the two hosts that evening were not very welcoming, and an older gentleman at the front was quite rude when my partner politely asked if we could be informed should an earlier table become available. It was not the best first impression. However, the evening completely turned around thanks to the manager Benji and our server Duncan. I have eating restrictions and can be quite limited in what I am able to eat in restaurants, which can sometimes make dining out stressful. Benji was incredibly kind and reassuring. He told me that if there were any issues I could come straight to him and even said he would personally source what I eat himself if he had to. He did not make me feel awkward or difficult. He

Whispering Canyon Cafe, located in Disney’s Wiseness Canyon, practically reeks of the Old West. But it’s the Disney version- sanitized, botulism and dirt free, and fun! Let’s start here: this restaurant is food with a show. Your wait staff will mess with you- throwing straws, grabbing your phone, teasing you LOUDLY- all in the name of fun-filled dinner theater. It’s all a joke! Ask for Katsup! Ask for a LITTLE more Coke. Be in on it, and look around to see the faces of those who don’t get it. Bless their hearts. Second, the atmosphere is top notch. It’s appears like you’re dining in a log cabin- inside a massive lodge no less. Third, the food. Breakfast has breakfast foods, but you save money ($20 for adults) by eating when it’s not lunch or dinner. Same atmosphere, different food. Their B
