Dad and Family at WDW

Finally a Disney Guide with Dad-a-tude

50's Prime Time Cafe

The 50's Prime Time Cafe is one of Disney Hollywood Studios unique restaurants. The Studios has some of the most eclectic restaurants in all of Disney World. The decor of this restaurant make this more than just a routine meal.

At this restaurant the cast members are part of the decor. The cute idea of the Cafe is to eat in a family kitchen from the 1950's. Linoleum is the fabric of the day. TV's are in Black and White and Mom save you a dinner with items like meat loaf and fried chicken. (You have to eat your vegetables before dessert.)

Dad's Bottom Line

It's a good thing this restaurant has some great themeing, because the food doesn't taste as good as it sounds. (That's Dad's opinion and he's sticking to it.)
