    Thanks for Pepper Market info! I decided to read about it in my Passporter(07 ed.) It says that you need to leave a tip, something I've never seen at a QS rest. Is this still correct, and would it be worth it to go there if staying at another resort?

    Hello again Melissa,

    Yes, you are right about this!  This Quick Service restaurant is really the exception to the rule here as it does offer partial table service but it is classified as Quick Service because you are ordering and bringing your own food to the table from the different food stations (just like a food court).  The servers are still bringing you your drinks, clearing your table and checking on you from time to time.....so yes, tipping is definitely recommended for this additional service that is being given to you.  Do I think it is still worth it?  Absolutely.  The value of your meal which includes a smoothie as a drink if you would like that as well as a dessert from their bakery makes it very worthwhile even though we do need to leave a gratuity.  We also always rent a car during our vacations in Walt Disney World, so for us it is not a problem getting there from another resort but this does become a bit bothersome if you are using the bus transportation system in WDW.  You could always take the bus from your resort to a Theme Park or Downtown Disney and then transfer to a bus to Coronado Springs Resort for your meal and I am not sure how worthwhile that would be for you if it's only to save some money on a good meal?  I will leave that up to you to decide but I think if this was the case for me then I probably wouldn't want to spend my time on transportation for the sole purpose of using a quick service meal credit, but this is just my opinion!  Have a wonderful vacation and a very magical time!

    Best wishes,
