Planning ahead with reservations is always recommended for table service locations, but sometimes you don’t have time to make a reservation or you’re feeling spontaneous. If you don’t have a dining reservation, there are several wonderful options to choose from across property. Today, we’re taking a look at the options available at Disney Springs.
Earl of Sandwich
One of my favorite lunch spots at Disney Springs is Earl of Sandwich. Here you can enjoy “The World’s Greatest Hot Sandwich!”. Grab a sandwich from a 250-year-old royal legacy perfected by the sandwich inventor’s descendants – I mean, how cool is that? There is a wide variety of menu options to choose from, including delicious signature drinks such as Earl Grey lemonade, a refreshing twist on the Arnold Palmer.

Secluded between AMC and Splitsville, this little spot is typically quiet and away from the rush of the shopping center. You can also find a great photo spot in their outdoor sitting area.

The Basket at Wine Bar George
A personal dining favorite is Wine Bar George. But did you know they have a grab-and-go counter? Here you can find menu favorites of snacks and drinks. One of the best options is the custom picnic basket. Build the perfect picnic with your favorite menu selections – including mac and cheese bites, charcuterie, frozacto mimosas, and more! Enjoy a peaceful, gorgeous al fresco meal with a custom picnic and spend some quality time together without the rush of being in a restaurant.
Blaze Fast-Fire’d Pizza
This popular pizza place is a must-visit in my opinion. Not only is their pizza mouthwateringly delicious and cooked to perfection, they only use clean, simple ingredients with no artificial colors, flavors, preservatives, or sweeteners. I love this place because it’s a quick fix for meals and they offer gluten-free crust. Not in a rush? Grab a seat on their covered porch and take in the gorgeous views of the water and Florida sunset.
