El Mercado de Coronado Review - A Place You Can Eat at Disney's Coronado Springs Resort 

My favorite dining review from Ryno - "I didn't hate it" That makes me smile every single time! Hannah having to make her own nachos for $14 was a little odd. Evidently Ryno is not going to be checking out a naturalist venue anytime soon - "Not for me" was awesome and joins my other quote as a favorite now. Maybe that cupcake was a BAKED cheesecake which may have helped in food safety. I feel for any cast member having to serve this substandard fare. Having worked food service myself, it can't be comfortable. Craig and the college food comments - good grief. I think the fact that Craig forgot the name says everything right there. Loved the review - a fun spot in my day. "DIS team ate here so you don't have to" - my summary

Dying laughing at Ryno’s comments about people in bikinis. Coronado Springs is often a resort that hosts cheerleading teams. You must have been there during an event.

The nachos look like they came out of a school cafeteria lol. The burger itself looked okay, but for $17 it kind of looked like it wasn’t even cooked on a grill, it almost looked like the boca burger I throw in my oven to heat up. They skimped on the fries, too lol Disney food is still so weird, some moderate level stuff is so basic and some is so well thought out and well presented. Always hit or miss

A Forest Gump reference is always welcome ❤

You guys with Hannah are so interesting and funny you could make Peanut butter and jelly sound great.Thanks,well done

Love your reviews! I'd get the nachos and street corn and skip the rest of the blah looking entrees, and that's all I have to say about that.😊

Thanks for this review. I will be staying at CS for one night after a DCL cruise next month. I just watched you 3 Bridges review, I definitely want to try that place. Love your honesty!😎👍🏻✨💫

I have stayed at Coronado many times since 2018, it is my favorite resort. The food at El Mercado is very different, and very disappointing, since the pandemic. Before the pandemic El Mercado and Rix’s Sports Bar had many mexican style and inspired dishes. El Mercado even had a mexican food station that you could get a variety of dishes from, including quesadillas. They also had mexican style dishes for breakfast that were delicious. In the before times El Mercado also did made to order pizzas at the pizza station. They also had a variety of burger choices, now all you can get is a bacon cheeseburger. The pastry station also had a better selection and even had edible cupcakes, unlike the garbage cupcakes that disney sells everywhere on property these days. I don’t know who is coming up with the menu items for the restaurants at Coronado, but they have no clue what the theme of that resort is. And when the cheerleaders show up, as they did when I was there at the end of April, they turn El Mercado into a giant grab and go by putting all the food in containers under heat lamps, there is no option for the custom orders. I am very strongly considering staying somewhere else on my next trip due to the junk they serve for food at this resort now. It was nice to see you guys sitting at one of my favorite tables.

I really enjoy the reviews from the three of you. You are good people. Even if there are times I disagree with you, which is not the case here, I appreciate hearing your views. And I always laugh at the quips and witticisms.

Thanks team for the review, keep them coming and I love "Snack Attacks"😁

5:15 Taco bell review coming up? 😂

Been a while! Good to see a video from you guys!

Does anyone really expect anything better than mediocre at a Disney resort food court?

An honest review.

Thank you all for this review

Love you restaurant reviews

Excellent review as always 👌🏻

They used to have this amazing breakfast bowl that had potatoes, eggs, cheese and all these yummy toppings like green salsa and ranchera sauce, etc. It was spicy and delicious!

Interesting food mix.

Hey have you guys ever done ones over swan and dolphin?

The cheesecake used to reside in the fridge section about 2 years ago, and then last year they moved it to the pastry/cupcake window. I asked the server behind the window for the cheesecake and she kind of semi agressively told me it was a cupcake, she stated “we dont serve cheesecake here”. So I was like errr, okay il take the dulce de leche cupcake then. But its the exact same cheesecake that used to be kept in the fridge. I dont know if the staff who stock the windows/fridges understand what it is, and that it should be refridgerated?

I agree with all of this however they have a salted caramel cookie that I think of often.

I'm guessing the reason the menu is boring because kids are generally picky eaters. I imagine value and moderate hotels have more kids and teenagers then deluxe hotels.

Women in bikini tops not for Rhino. Got it. What a surprise. hehe

Does the Gran Destino have a quick serve or is this it?

Ummm, is there another way is there to eat three day old pizza???

plant based with goat cheese?

We've tried to eat there several times, but the hours are not really friendly. I would have gone for the calzone, so I was hoping someone would have chosen that.

This is my favorite moderate resort and the food at the pool bar is better than this location.

While it was many years ago I stayed there twice and was very unhappy with the food. I felt it was worse than allstar resort which I dislike immensely.

El Mercado is definitely not great food . Also it’s more expensive than most resort quick service restaurants . I’ve been told it’s not run by Disney . Not sure if that happened after the pandemic.

Great review - the food definitely looks less than appealing, particularly when you consider it’s Disney.

Do you guys all so help with universal packages Disney is just way to complicated and to much money

I agree with you stunk it’s why we stopped cruising nhslf to almost naked girls everywhere especially in dining is unacceptable so if Disney doesn’t keep it tidy we may turn away from Disney as well as we have small children

I think this food court is run by a third party and not Disney. I had a horrible overpriced breakfast sandwich there.
