What is your favorite place to eat? What is your go-to food in the park to eat?

We kind of like JBs but haven't really been eating in the park much.  That will now be changing as SFNE sent me an email offering the lowest level dining plan for $34.99.  I bought two, so now I guess we will be eating some at the park.  Hard not to get your money worth at that pricepoint.

At, That price point it's worth getting! For me Chop Six Has been good the time I got it, The Filling station is another great option with the Mac N Cheese Sandwiches!

Lets face it when it comes to food SFNE falls short. Easily the worse park food in New England.  I Enjoy the atmosphere at JB's and the food is OK but I wouldn't write home about it. I do want to try chop Six.

I also got the email about the 34.99 pass and might consider it. When I ate once at JB's last year it cost me nearly $20 just for lunch. So as long as I use it twice I pay it off. Bothers me that its lunch thought since I'd me more apt to have dinner then the lunch.

One of my go-tos is Take Six and the pasta dishes, hoping to try the ones at Good Eats later in the season, assuming they can get their act together with their offerings. I tried one of the mac & cheese sandwiches from the Filling Station when I was there on Easter and it was delicious, my favorite of those is the pulled pork.

I'll keep that in mind. Sadly on opening day the Filling Station was a nightmare.

Since my post about this got wiped out by the hostile deletion of the old forum, I’ll repost this as a reminder...

If you have a membership, you can use your member discount at park-owned eateries towards most if not all food offerings that aren’t on the dining plan or if you miss the dining plan cutoff time. For example - Mama Flora’s at GRADV is not park-owned so none of their offerings are on the plan and you can’t use your discount there. When I was at SFNE on Easter I was able to use my discount to try one of their ginormous Thrill Shakes at Coaster Creamery - depending on your appetite those things might require sharing with a second person - they’re HUGE!

However, this discount cannot be used towards the “upcharge” dining plan offerings.

Maybe it’s an SFNE thing but I have read that the member discount does apply for the up-charges at Great Adventure. You just have to get them to scan your card twice.

My guess is it depends on the location but if they are promising you a discount on food it should discount the up-charge since its towards food.

From what I’ve heard, the member discount is not supposed to apply to dining plan upcharges, as I stated in my post. Those who were able to get it at GRADV got lucky. This info came from the GRADV Connoisseurs FB page.

I believe it used to have more BBQ but then they started playing and built that outdoor BBQ place across the way.

I was at the park 2 weeks ago right after the flash sale. Do the food stands have the 2020 drink bottles yet? I don’t think they did when I was there, but maybe I missed them.

Not sure if they have the 2020 cups this early. They would be trying to get people to buy those 2019 thermos cups.
