Question about Employee Discounts & Employee Cafe

I just had a question about employee discounts. I heard that you get free rides passes for your friends and such, how many do you get? Also, when you are on break/going on break, where do you buy your food? Can you go to any stall and get what you want, and if so, how much are the discounts? (I know as being a costumer of CP, their chicken tenders are like 10 dollars!) I've also heard about the employee cafe how is that? Do they also serve breakfast and where is it located? Sorry for so many questions, I just want to make sure that I know how much money I will be spending on food daily at CP.

you get 4 free tickets to give to friends and family after you have worked at least 30 days. you can get food from anywhere in the park when you want - but you don't get a discount, you pay the same price as everybody else - the food in the employee cafe is priced pretty reasonable. the employee cafe is located in the park, its pretty convinent if you take the bus from housing there, i forgot the name of the exact building that it's located in/by but it's not very far for the most part.

Oh okay thanks. I just wanted to make sure that it was in the park and was accessible easily so I could grab something to eat on my breaks, cause I def do not want to pay those ridiculous prices for the food haha.

You also have the option for going to Stockade. They sell food there too. However, the selection isn't as good, and there is no air conditioning. However, Stockade is a good place to mingle with others

I heard there are "secret" employee stalls too?

You get a 25% discount at select merchandise locations, begining after Memorial day. The cafeteria has very reasonably priced food items. You can select from grill items, to sandwiches, salads, pizza by the slice. If you work in the back of the park, there's an employee eatery called Stockade, where there's a limited menu selection. It's mostly like, hamburgers, hotdogs, french fries, chicken strips, and other grill items. It's an open air type setting, with picnic tables under shelters. I like it, but it can get pretty hot in mid summer. If you get an hour for break, I would try to get to the cafeteria, it's airconditioned. The caf is located near Planet Snoopy.

can you bring your own food for lunch and such? also can you bring water and such too?

The employee cafeteria is located in the Food Services Building which is attached to Cedar Fair Coprorate offices.

Yes you can bring your own food! They have microwaves in both the Cafeteria and Stockade. It is much cheaper to bring ur own lunch and healthier too!

As for water.. why wouldn't you be able to bring your own water?

Anyways, if you bring water from a store, the label has to be torn off. Your water jug or bottle should be clear so people can see what ur drinking. It should only ever be water!

okay i was just making sure! where do you keep food when you are working and stuff though?

You'll be able to keep a bag somewhere that's accessible for you on your breaks. Depending on where you work, it may be at your location or in a locker somewhere. Keeping things chilled could be an issue, so I wouldn't bring anything that might spoil easily.
