For some reason when I think of Trail's closing I think of Boyz II Men's "It's so hard to say goodbye."

Okay, so my upcoming trip begins 4/16. I grabbed an ADR at Trail's End because of this news. But should I go just because it's the first and last time I'll ever be there? It's another dinner with a BBQ skillet, like Wilderness Cafe. I grabbed another ADR at Boma for an hour later because I could and frankly I like going there for breakfast and dinner.
Thoughts?

You should go because it's the first and last time you will ever be there!

price wise you cannot beat it, 22.00 for breakfast, 32.00 for dinner plus discounts if you have them.breakfast appears to be buffet-style again.

When did that happen?

Thanks. I won't be there for breakfast. I arrive that day so it would only be a dinner reservation. But definitely family style though.

Still family style. Last day for ADRs is 4/16. Still deciding on whether to keep it. If I cancel, I'll have this window open and let people know.

As long as I can still get Fried Chicken and Strawberry Shortcake I can live with the decision.

We really have no other choice but to live with it.
Just like all other terrible decisions Disney makes.

I was thinking the same thing. Disney seems to care less and less about the real customers.

I'm trying to recall if Trail's End existed in any form or other name back when we first camped in the fort in '72. Is it original to The Fort?
(I was a little kid and only cared about the playgrounds, swimming and once I discovered it, the MK.)
I recall we'd go out to eat once per trip and that was always brunch at the Top of the World at the Contemporary (yes, they moved the name to BLT.)

We've never eaten there. Is it a good restaurant?

It was decent. Not the greatest, not the worst but the price was excellent. (before you had to pay for salmon and shrimp)
Many years ago Trails End was a sit down restaurant and a small bar area. There wasn’t any QS of any type. This was also before the refillable mug offering. You could get snacks and camping supplies at the trading posts. The food offerings were pretty slim. You basically had to make sure you stopped at a supermarket before you arrived at FW.

Some of my friends camp at the campgrounds when they go to Disney.
Maybe -- but Uncle George won't be paying $35 for four fried chickens and a coke any more. Those four fried chickens will wind up costing him as much as a day at the Magic Kingdom.

Think I'll just stick to Cracker Barrel for a better deal on that.

Still holding on to a TE dinner ADR for this Sunday night. Yeah, it could be my first and last ADR there ever but I hedged my bets on a Boma ADR for an hour later. Cannot go wrong with Boma and I have a similar ADR compared to TE later in the week at Roundup Rodeo anyway. So thinking about canceling.

Yes, Boma is really good! We enjoy it!

I have decided to release at noon EDT my TE 4/16 7:10pm ADR to give you time to grab it.
I already have an ADR for Boma at 8:15pm the same night (I have been deciding which to release) and, while the allure of having an ADR for TE for the 1st and last time is tempting, it's still another skillet meal like Wilderness Cafe and now Roundup Rodeo.
