My family and I spent the day at SeaWorld and decided to pay for the all-day dining deal for us all. It could be considered expensive ($32.99/adult and $17.99/child) but for once I didn?t want to have to be bothered with finding the best deals and trying to make sure everyone?s happy. So we ponied up the cash and then made sure we got our money?s worth. And boy oh boy?we sure did!
The all-day dining plan is basically like a all-day buffet at some unique and tasty restaurants. The plan allows you to visit any of six on-site restaurants and order one entree, one side or dessert, and one drink each time through the line. Since SeaWorld has a strict policy against outside food or coolers of any size being brought in (though they do allow bottled water and snack size snacks), you almost have to buy their food if you are staying there all day. Below I?ve listed some pros and cons of this plan so you can decide if it is right for you. It was great for us!
Pros:
1. You get to eat a lot of food. There are a bunch of options from BBQ brisket to burgers to fajitas. The food was all very good and the portions are hearty. I liked that they had lots of healthy options, including fresh fruit, available.
2. You don?t have to think about prices, share entrees, or worry about leaving the park hungry.
3. When it?s hot, you can always grab a cold drink and not think about the price.
4. If you eat at least two meals and a snack in the park, this deal can save you money. If you get there early enough to eat breakfast there you can get even more for your money. An average entree, side and drink is about $15 for adults. A kids meal and a dessert is about $8.
Cons
1. You spend a lot of the day standing in line. While we were trying to get our money?s worth, we ended up missing some shows because we were there too late. The lines can take awhile to get through.
2. The restaurants included in the plan are not always convenient to where you are. Though they are spread out through the park, I found myself wishing I could stop at one of the carts close by.
3. You eat a lot of food. Everything is so good and since it is ?free?, we found ourselves graving all day long. This is not a good plan for someone watching their weight. Sure you CAN eat all the healthy stuff, but when the delicious carrot cake is staring at you time after time, you are going to be tempted to choose that instead.
4. If you leave early (because of rain for instance) or just don?t get around to eating a lot, you can end up spending more money than you needed to.
