Dining tips and how to save at Great Adventure

A few ways to eat well at Great Adventure without losing ride time or overspending:

• Order ahead. Where the park app offers mobile ordering, place your order before you are hungry and skip the counter line.
• Bring a refillable bottle. Free water refills beat buying drinks all day and keep you going between coasters.
• Eat off-peak. Counters back up from about 11:30am to 1:30pm; eat a little earlier or later and walk right up.
• Ask about dietary needs. Most quick-service spots can flag allergens, and a chef can usually help at sit-down restaurants if you ask.
• Consider a dining deal. If your group eats two or more meals in the park, an all-day or season dining plan can pay for itself.

For a sit-down meal, favorites include Best of the West BBQ and Granny's Country Kitchen. Menus and hours change, so confirm in the park app on the day.
