Table service--do you do lunch or dinner?

What do you tend to do as a general rule with your table service options--at lunchtime or at dinnertime?

I've heard some pros and cons for both, and can't decide!

Most all of our TS are breakfast meals, and a few are dinners.

In 9 days we did mostly dinner, one breakfast, one lunch (AK day) and one late lunch (at Sci-fi and we ended up skipping dinner we were so full!)

We usually do dinners, as they are a better use of the credit!

We do mostly dinners. DS isn't a big breakfast eater. Since we've been going in August I really don't want a big TS meal in the middle of the day in the heat.

we do mainly lunches... they're incredibly filling and we end up not needing a breakfast or a dinner... just snacks (which we bring into teh parks on our own most days)

That's how we plan.

But I do enjoy a good breakfast buffet -- they are so expensive that I feel better "paying" with credits. I don't wince as much!

On our sept-oct trip

We had 1 breakfast, 2 lunches, and 3 dinners. One of our lunches was 2 credits at Brown derby. Delish.

When we went to Epcot, we ate around the world at the F & W festival during the day and saved plenty of room for dinner that night and were full after that.

I think Dinner menus have a better selection but r a lil more crowded. It really depends on where u plan on being that day.

Good luck

Good question. Last 2 trips we did a lot of breakfasts. With 2 young children it was a good way to get up and out of the room early! And it's a fun way to start the day. This trip was are doing lunches and dinners. We'll see how that works out!

We usually do breakfasts because they don't seem to disrupt the day as much.
As between lunch & dinner, though, we tend toward dinners. By then we're ready to take a break. We can cover a lot of ground while other folks are doing lunch or leaving midday to go back to their resort.

We usually do one breakfast and the rest we like to do dinner. For lunch we use the CS because we like to cover alot of ground during the day and when we eat heavy during the day we feel sluggish for the afternoon.
