Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo

To fully immerse yourself in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disney's Hollywood Studios, you must stop by Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo. Careful as you may run into some who don’t want to allow passage into the Docking Bay! Once safely inside, you are surrounded by travelers from all over the galaxy! We dined on Endorian Fried Chicken and Batuuan Beef Pot Roast. The Tip Yip was everyone’s favorite! We opted for the children’s meal since we were not sure if our 5 year old traveler would enjoy these worldly offerings. He did...and nearly ate it all himself! I guess battling the dark side will do that to a young padawan! For dessert, we had the Batuu-Bon which was also a favorite! The specialty drink options change seasonally! You never know what surprises you will get when you are exploring this part of the galaxy!

Simply put, if I am going to indulge in a beverage during an already expensive meal, it's going to be an adult libation nine times out of ten. For that reason, I told our server that I would be happy with tap and so did my dining companion who whispered in my ear she could not justify $15 on breakfast water. We were quickly served complimentary champag
