Summary

Skipper Canteen has fresh flavors and fine service. The menu decidedly doesn't cater to simpler tastes and aims higher than it can sometimes achieve, but any in-park restaurant that identifies its fish option as “not piranha” is OK in our book.

Setting and Atmosphere

Designed as the home of off-duty Jungle Cruise skippers, Skipper Canteen offers guests an oasis from the theme park with three distinct dining rooms (and a boatload of corny jokes).

The crew’s dining spot features high ceilings, dark wooden fixtures, and souvenirs collected from skippers’ travels bathed in stained glass window–tinted natural light. Behind a hidden bookcase (with highly amusing book titles), guests can visit the secret meeting room of the Society of Explorers and Adventurers, filled with posh fixtures, maps, and a beautiful collection of butterflies.

The Jungle Room completes the dining set, with intimate seating near intricately carved wood bookshelves and colorful stained glass lamps.

House Specialties

The menu features flavors from several world cuisines, with Asian influences in the char siu pork (a house favorite). Latin flavors make their way into whatever cut of steak the Canteen is currently featuring, as well as the house-made cachapas (corn pancakes) topped with pork and avocado cream.

Other Recommendations

Plant-based dining is well represented here, with an emphasis on vegetables instead of “fake meat.” Even the kids’ menu satisfies across the board.

The one dessert worth ordering is the Kungaloosh! chocolate cake with caramelized bananas - it'll close out any meal with a smile.
