Best place to eat and watch fireworks

**weemac** · 16-01-2005, 23:36

Can anyone tell me the best place at Epcot to have something to eat and watch the fireworks?

Rose and Crown in England (restaurant)
Cantina in Mexico (fast food)
Eat in Japan and time you meal to finish just before the fireworks and stand on the balcony to watch

Hi

For $125 you can book a Disney ‘speciality cruise’, which is a 12-seater pontoon, which leaves from the Boardwalk Resort (which itself is within walking distance from Epcot).

The cruise takes just under an hour and they take you around the Boardwalk lagoon, down to MGM, before returning to stop at the side of the Epcot lagoon where you get an excellent and different view of the fireworks.

You can also take your own snacks and drink aboard and have a great time.

They are very popular and can be booked 90 days in advance.

Have fun!

I second the Rose and Crown, Great beer, fish and chips, fireworks, great view.

Is that $125 per person or per pontoon? How many do they hold?

Thanks

Per pontoon, I am guesing the hold 12, thats about the amount we had on when Caroline treated us.You can take your own drink and food if you like. If I rememeber correctly we had a rather large bottle of champers becuase the Flying fish only sold that size[beer][beer]Makes for a great end to an evening.

As Martin says - pontoon takes 12 and it was $125 in total (tax included)

Sounds good, we are going with friends (It's their 1st time) would make a great ending. Has anyone got details of where to book please?

The phone number is 001 407 939 7529 from the UK
You need to book 90 days in advance and as soon as Disney opens for the day!

Price was $120 + tax - they will provide soft drinks and some kind of food, but much better to eat first and take your own favourite tipple on board

I'l try and find a photo
