50’s Prime Time Cafe provides classic American comfort food such as meatloaf, fried chicken, and mashed potatoes. Make sure you clean your plate, or having dessert won’t be an option here otherwise.

Although Disney’s Hollywood Studios are known for thrill attractions such as Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, Aerosmith’s Rock n’ Roller Coaster, and Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, there are also rides that everyone can enjoy together.

Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway is a trackless ride everyone can enjoy together. Everyone boards the train to head out with Goofy. When things go wrong, Mickey, Minnie and their friends work together. The special effects are fantastic. Watching the rooms transform is an effect that has us in awe each time we ride.
