    There is also a boat for the GF too, so you don't have to make that relatively long monorail trip.

    Ft. Wilderness and Wilderness Lodge are very close too, so that adds even more to the restaurant count.

    You and everyone else, reason why there may be a change of menu coming to this location soon since most guests do not care for the current menu or the pricing structure.

Trust me, I have friends who work in Guest Relations and Surveys... This location gets the worst rating in EPCOT I have been told.. reason a menu change may be in the works.

As a frequent dinner at on Property establishments, I could very much do without ever dining at Liberty Tree again.

    For a good meal, it's all about Jiko's.

    I would agree. But the original poster was looking for restaurants in the Magic Kingdom. Although Liberty Tree Tavern is not as good as Jiko's (or many other hotel or Epcot restaurants) it is the best the MK has to offer.

    all those people, give us more choice please. I love Epcot as we usually have 4 meals there in a vacation, and we can eat totally different things each time, at Mk, we ALWAYS end up at CHH or Pecos Bills, both are good, but I want variation.We actually dared Pinocchios VH(?) for the first time, and were amazed how quiet it was!!! I thought it's localtion would mean it would be packed. My fav "fast food" place at WDW theme parks is Tuskers though. Delicious.

    I agree
    Oh how we miss the Monte Cristo sandwich there, coverd in powdered sugar with honey to dip it in... and the wonderful marinated chicken sandwiches at the Kikkoman Adventureland Veranda..

    Does ANYONE remember that the Crystal Palace use to have BIRDS flying around while you were eating????? It doesn't happen anymore since they did it all over probably sometime in the 1990s.

    In more recent years, I've gone and asked them about it....and it seems no cast member can recall the birds. Of course, I know most CM from the 1980s probably don't wirk there now. Still, one woman said emphatically something like "No, we don't do that anymore." So maybe they have a selective memory.

    I still loved (and love) the Crystal Palace though!
