For many guests, a Disney World vacation means a vacation filled with delicious food and wonderful dining. Many guests enjoy sit-down restaurants during their trip because of the special theming and overall experience. But Disney dining fans realize that you can still get a premium experience with certain quick-service restaurants. You don’t have to choose sit-down dining to get wonderful views, great themes, and tasty food. If you have a vacation to Disney World coming up then be sure to check out these quick-service restaurants with great views.
Flame Tree Barbecue at Disney’s Animal Kingdom
Over at Disney’s Animal Kingdom you can get delicious barbecue with an incredible view. Flame Tree Barbecue serves classic barbecue favorites like chicken, ribs, pork, and more. Their outdoor seating area gives you a lovely view of the lake overlooking the Expedition Everest attraction. This quick-service restaurant is a great place to soak in the ambiance of Animal Kingdom, enjoy a wonderful meal, and plan for the day ahead.

Katsura Grill at EPCOT
One of my personal favorite places to eat is at the Japan pavilion within EPCOT’s Word Showcase. Katsura Grill serves yummy Japanese cuisine like sushi rolls, Shrimp and beef udon, Tonkotsu Ramen, Chicken Curry, Miso Wings, Chicken and Beef Teriyaki, and more. The food is great here, but the view is even better. Katsura Grill sits within a beautiful Japanese garden. This area is tucked away near the rear of the pavilion so it’s quiet, peaceful, and perfect for taking your time and enjoying your meal.

Pinocchio Village Haus at Magic Kingdom
This next quick-service restaurant is located within Magic Kingdom’s Fantasyland, and the view is a bit more unique! Pinocchio Village Haus serves pizza flatbread, meatball subs, and salads. This restaurant has indoor seating but there is still a lovely view to be seen. Pinocchio Village Haus as a second floor that overlooks the inside of the “its a small world” attraction. Guests can grab a table by the windows and watch as the ride floats by. Have fun waving to the guests below as you enjoy your food and your time at Pinocchio Village Haus.

Columbia Harbour House at Magic Kingdom
Another Magic Kingdom quick-service restaurant with a view is Columbia Harbour House. Located in Liberty Square, this restaurant serves food from both land and sea. Guests can enjoy their famous Lobster Roll, as well as fried fish and chicken. This restaurant also has indoor seating and a second floor. The windows of the second floor overlook Liberty Square. This is also a great place to catch the parade strolling by if you’re lucky enough to grab a seat by the windows. Columbia Harbour House is themed to perfection and really makes you feel like you stepped back in time!
