We are planning on out first trip to GWL in the Poconos in March. Our kids are 3 and 2. Is there a charge for them for the breakfast buffet and the dinner buffet? What is the cost for adults for the breakfast and dinner buffets?
Hi Abbey, In answer to your question the price varies for breakfast and dinner at the buffet. You can also a la carte for the children. The 2-year-old you would not have to pay for. You may want to call the Great Wolf Lodge directly to get pricing for the weekend you are staying. Also check out the website, because they run meal deal packages with the rooms and can be made at the time of your reservation. Have fun! You're going to love it! Debbie
What kind of foods are available in the Lodge restaurants that are vegetarian? (We will eat eggs, milk, cheese, etc.)
Hi There are several options that I think may fit into your dietary choices. To start off there is Pizza Hut-this happens to be one of my favorite treats when I stay at the Lodge. The Loose Moose buffet has many different options including a salad bar, pasta (a chef will make your pasta to order) and fish selection. If you have a specific needs, please ask to speak to the food service manager and I am sure they will be happy to assist you. Also remember that every suite has a refrigerator and a microwave so you can bring in food that you enjoy.
What kind of nearby restaurants are there outside of the park, and are they within driving or walking distance?
Hi Tonia, There are plenty of places to eat within GWL such as Pizza Hut, The Loose Moose Cottage buffet and the Spirit Island Sanck Shop. My family and I have always eaten at the Lodge and have found it to be good and reasonably priced, but if you wanted to venture outside of GWL there are plenty of restaurants within driving distance for you to choose from. At the concierge's desk (to the right at the check-in desk), there is a book of menus from nearby restaurants Some places even deliver to the GWL. Wherever you choose to eat, I hope it's delicious!

Do the restaurants serve alcohol?
Yes they do. The Loose Moose Cottage serves drinks at the table and there is also a bar, just beyond the buffet room that is nice to sit for a drink. You may also purchase a drink inside the Pool area at the Spirit Island Snack Shop, which sells souvenir GWL plastic pint cups. Also, to the right of the wave pool, just above it is another bar which has a full-service walk-up bar. There are a few counter-height tables and chairs to sit with your drink or you may take it with you. This bar sells drinks only for adults. The PINA COLADAS are great !! :) In the summer time there is usually a bar set up outside too! When we were there for New Years Eve there was also a temporary bar set up in the lobby. They may have it other times too when guest are waiting to check in. Enjoy! Debbie G. GWL Panelist
