TIPS AND NOTES

FOOD

All rooms have a coffee / tea maker and a mini frig in the room. If you run out of coffee/tea let front
desk know and they will bring more for you at no charge. Add ice from resort in bags to keep milk
really cold or keep in your cooler with ice. The beverage frigs do not get really cold.

Breakfast

• Eat breakfast in the Club lounge UNLESS you have a character breakfast scheduled – it saves
a ton of time
•

Lunch & Dinner

• You will usually be in the parks for these meals
• If you have a table service reservation, be there about 15 minutes early to check in
• Cancel any reservation you will not use at least 2 hours before the reservation time from
the phone app or at any hostess desk at any restaurant in any park
• If you would like to eat at a particular restaurant – check the phone app for walk-up times or
just stop by and see if there is availability – with the 2 hour cancellation there often is…
• I have been seated as much as an hour early for a reservation – so if you get there really early
– just ask
• No table service reservation? – there are plenty of quick service restaurants where you order
at a counter OR mobile order from your phone app and pick up the food (this is quicker
usually)
• Adults can order kid’s meals from quick service eateries
• Adult portions are often enough to share – think nachos

Snacks

Of course, Disney has amazing snacks everywhere but little ones (and even big ones) get hangry and
may not want to wait in a line for a snack.

• Take snacks that are not super heavy and will not melt in the parks in your backpack – peanut
butter/crackers (nabs), goldfish, protein bars, cereal bars, that sort of thing.

Order Groceries with Instacart or with Garden Grocer

• This process is totally easy, your groceries will be held by Bell Services until you can pick them
up - section on that in this binder

WATER

• Take a case of water with you if driving, if not – order grocery delivery with a case of water
• Take a water bottle in the parks in your backpack – you cannot take ice or glass
• Water is free in Disney World if you know where to get it
o Quick Service restaurants -- just ask or go to the self-service space
• Water fountains near restrooms
