Sit down restaurant:

Located in the heart of downtown Black Spire Outpost, you can spot this sit-down restaurant from around Galaxy’s Edge thanks to the delivery shuttle parked on top.

Chef Strono “Cookie” Tuggs is the proprietor, and that’s his kitchen — a modified Sienar-Chall Utilipede Transport. In other words, a flying food truck.

He’s dropping off meals for the customers below, and the trailer-size food crates themselves are marked with a sly Easter egg.

The first one is stamped 77, the middle one — which is dangling through an iris in the restaurant ceiling as it is delivered — is marked with 80, and the other one still aboard the ship is No. 83. Those are the three release years of the original trilogy.

We don’t know much else about “Cookie” Tuggs, except that he honed his culinary skills working in the kitchen of Maz Kanata’s castle on Takodana.

From EW...
In the “windows” behind Hondo, which are actually a video screen, you’ll see the Falcon rise up from its place in the courtyard and lower down into the interior docking back. (The Falcon outside never moves, of course, but this explains how you are able to board it from within the attraction.)
Confirmed!

It also appears that we'll be going upstairs, too.
The line starts at ground level curves along the back of the Falcon, so visitors can get a closer look from that perspective. From there, you climb a set of stairs that lead to catwalks circling the mechanic shop, where other ships and engines are under repair. Along the exterior wall, there are some narrow, triangular windows with a close-up view of the radar dish atop the Falcon. Visitors are likely to cluster around these, squeezing in for a glimpse and a photo, but…
Around the next corner, the line bends along a bank of picture windows with a long, unobstructed view of the top of the Falcon and the town of Black Spire Outpost beyond.

Disney: “Hey can you make Star Wars Land as immersive as possible to rival that Universal Wizard thing?”
Joe Imagineer: “Sure can!”
Also Disney: “Can you add Disney play integration into SW:GE, so if you fully want to experience SWGE you have to pull out your smartphone”
Joe Imagineer: “But phones don’t exist in the Star Wa-“
Disney: “You’re fired, get someone else in here.”
Later
Disney: “Can you add Disney play integration into SW:GE, so if you fully want to experience SWGE you have to pull out your smartphone”
Yes Man: “Sure can boss!”
