Earl of Sandwich is not the best counter service at Disney Springs. We went 2 years ago, and my adult daughters said never again. It was just meh. The place was crowded; we were squeezed into a corner to eat. The last time we were there we were delighted with The Polite Pig. It’s like Mission Barbeque but moist. So good we did not need sauce on the meat. Try The Polite Pig conveniently located near the resort bus stop.
