Epic Universe Expansion Speculation

Are we sure about that? I've stood in lines waiting to get into Meteor at like 2pm before.

For what it's worth, I also noticed lines out the door of Meteor around that time... but I just wonder if that's a function of its placement and not reflective of broader restaurant capacity issues. The park has a lot of restaurants!

You’ve obviously spent more time at the park than me, but “wait times for food and drink” weren’t on my list of complaints. Certainly not compared to ride wait times, which is really my point.

Ah yeah got it. Generally I think people are more conditioned not to wait in long lines for food than rides, but I see where you're coming from.

Very possible, I've only eaten an early lunch in Oak & Star so hard to tell if it gets super busy too or if it's a function of being 1) centrally located 2) a burger place.

Sure but your wait for Ministry was 10x longer. Other issues to focus on.

I really think it's a combination of its loud facade that announces exactly what it is (burgers! beer! safe stuff! nothing crazy here!) and is located at the intersection of Ministry and Stardust Racers.

I don't think the space is big enough for an attraction* and I don't think the budgets and justifications are the same. Can do both.

*unless it's a Villain-Con lol

Looking back on my experience there, yeah. That Meteor building is shockingly small for the kind of restaurant it is. I had trouble finding seating. They wanted a Cosmic Rays, but only built a restaurant at the scale of the ABC Commissary.
