CityWalk Orlando Updates & Changes General Thread

[Doug A.]

The chain survives on rural white American evangelicals. Without turning this into a debate, that's the fact. Forrest Gump is Citizen Kane for that group.



Burger King? Wasn't it the case I the 90s that Wendy's operated Tims inthe States, and vice versa? I remember documents to this effect when i worked for Wendy's.

edit to add: I figured out after-posting multi quote. You're welcome, mods.

Yes they (Wendy’s and Tim Hortons) merged in 1992-1995, we still have a couple of the Wendy’s/Tim Hortons combination restaurants in our area.

Bob Marley's is legitimately my favorite restaurant in Citywalk.

Also, there's not a Tim Hortons at Citywalk. :grin:

Marley's has good unique Jamaican food and good bands. We try to hit it often. The Pepper Pot soup is superb.

I'm not gonna go out on a limb and call it authentic or anything, buuuuttt that jerk chicken is delicious. And the frozen drinks. Lol.

Plus, live Reggae music and a half dozen Red Stripes is a nice way to spend an evening.

Hey, you get enough Red Stripe or cocktails in you and anything tastes good. :toast: :tease:

Except Red Stripe. :ack:

I'm glad some others share my love for Marley's. I always have trouble finding others.

Very fun indeed! Give me a Cool Ya Down and the Buffalo Soldier Jerk Wings and I'm a happy guy.

Also the Jammin' Chips and Salsa. :grin:

I've only been to Marley's once, and it was years ago. All I remember is that I had some sort of soup, and found it rather tasty. Very insightful, I know.

Pepper Pot soup. And yes, it's delicious. I order it every time I'm there.

Starting to think I may need to try this, LOL.

For someone more in the know... is there any expansion spots available for City Walk? Always been curious as I feel they could still add another big dining experience or two to the area. Still wish they'd add a big Nintendo store as well, easiest way to generate buzz for Nintendo in the parks. I understand that may wait until City Walk 2.0 though.

Coming from someone who is not in the know but has Google Maps - I can't find any open space in CityWalk where something could fit.

Kinda? There's a very small spot in front of Blue Man and between Hard Rock and RockIt where they can fit a tiny building. Other than that you would have to replace/remove things.

There's so many good choices at Citi Walk now, and a lot of reasonable prices, that we've cut down on our dinner meals inside the parks, and venture out to CitiWalk for our main meal. In most cases we can get a nice sit down dinner at only a bit more than we'd pay for a quick service meal and snack inside the park. Plus, no reservations needed.

Yep. I prefer going to CowFish, Toothsome or Hard Rock for similar priced meals (maybe $3-4 more) but higher quality.

Old maps showed room for an expansion club between Pat Os and Groove. It's where Jekyll & Hyde was supposed to go back when that was the hot rumor. I believe the storage space on the opposite side of the fountain from Rising Star was also marked as expansion space, but it's possible Cowfish took up some of that.

[I'm sure the map is sure around somewhere, if you do a deep dive here or Magic]
