This made me giggle, because I hear it quite frequently in real life conversation & have used it myself! Perhaps it's a regional term....we will say things like 'do you want to do fast food or a sit down place?' Basically meaning do you want to go so somewhere cheap and quick or to a restaurant with waitersIt must be a term popular for this board. I've never heard someone refer to a restaurant as sit down in a real life conversation.
I always imagine it's because there are so many people with children here and parents always seem to adopt "child words" for things that may be cutesy or simplistic while not being completely accurate.
What? You've never eaten at Rutt's Hutt in New Jersey?

Except when it's buffet and that is still considered "table service." Though I guess your drinks are brought to you and dishes are cleared.
In the world outside WDW, I consider buffets to be a standalone category between fast food and table service. It is considered table service at WDW because of the ADR/cost/dining plan credit needed to eat there.
I've not had the pleasure?! Of a rutts hutt~I shall Google!
Precisely why I posed the question; I had never come across the term sit down restaurant either-but then again I'm far away in the cold north of England and winter is coming
We most definitely are-Jon snow is going to organise the defence of the north ...It's a dive, hot dog type place in NJ that only has counters for eating. I have not so fond childhood memories of eating there. Deep fried hot dogs...
It may be a US expression. Although from somewhere else than where I live. I'm in the NYC Metro area and have never heard someone refer to a restaurant as sit down.
Winter is coming? Are you ready for the direwolves and white walkers?

I consider buffets their own category.Except when it's buffet and that is still considered "table service." Though I guess your drinks are brought to you and dishes are cleared.
Used to be called table cloth service. However with no table clothes something else needed to used.What? You've never eaten at Rutt's Hutt in New Jersey?
