Quick Service pre-orders at Disney World

By -
You can't go wrong in taking advantage of the My Disney Experience Quick Service Meal Pre-orders! Quick service allowing pre-order for Magic Kingdom

I feel like I hit the jackpot every time I utilize this service!
Especially on my last trip!

We just finished riding Winnie the Pooh and of course exited into the gift shop. We were hungry and wanted to eat. Pinocchio Village Haus was right across from us and where we wanted to eat. I had not even looked over there yet. I thought it would be easy to let my little browse the store while I order the food! Win-win.
I processed my order which was two kid meals that came with drinks and two sides.
As we started our walk over there, I could not believe how long the line was! I had never actually seen it so long before. I am not sure if you have ever seen quick service counters at the middle of lunch hour but they can be chaotic and stressful. It is loud, you are struggling to get everyone's orders in while feeling this since of Rush~ it can be unpleasant! The line was all the way to the arched gate entrance!
Ordering Kid meals can be great but not all quick service actually offers Kid meals. Casey Jr's Doesn't for example. When dining on a budget or just watching portions, Kid meals can be a great option!

I knew my order was in process and I had to get to the pick up location which was inside the restaurant. As I walked past everyone, politely saying 'excuse me', I could feel the 'what is she doing?!' looks from each group I passed. I almost felt bad for them but I was also enjoying the fact I didn't have to wait in that horrid line! 😏

LOOK AT THAT LINE! 



















As I got to the Mobile pick up window, there were maybe 4 other people waiting for theirs. I waited maybe 5 minutes and mine was ready! We were able to grab a great table very quickly as well. As I looked back at that endless line, all I could think of was 'I love you APP" and all the other glitches & grief that APP likes to give somehow disappeared for that brief moment.

Not bad $15.00 for this at Disney?!
Back to my review of this quick service. It is always a reliable place. Food has always been good. It is not outstanding but my family really enjoys it. The Kid meal portions are actually pretty filling.
I love their mac & cheese! I ordered grapes and an apple sauce with my meal so I could take them with me to have as snacks later in the day. They are served in pouches for easy storage. I also asked for two free ice waters to go.

I do recommend playing around with the APP prior to arriving at the Parks so you can better navigate through the ordering system.

The Disney Cruise Lines offer Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique Makeover with more options than you could ever get at the parks!!!! (Fantasy & Dream boats) You can get First Mate, Pirate, Mermaid, Princess and even a star Wars makeover (depending on the sailing you book under) We did the standard Princess Makeover although we have done Pirates in the past (for son and daughter) It is always a fantastic experience! The children feel so special with all the extra attention with makeover to boot! How do you not love that?! They do start around $19.00 for boys and $55.00 starting rate for girls. They can definitely escalate depending on the amazing options you could add to it from $100, $200 and even $750.00 (Yes, You read that correctly~$750.00) Of course booking for this opens when your cruise registration opens. You must be paid in full and the opening registration depends on If you are a new cruiser or the Castaway Club level you are. Previous sailings I have always booked arou...

virtual Run Disney review from Dealing with Disney

I decided to finally see what the virtual Disney Runs were all about. A friend of mine told me she signed up. She wanted to keep her momentum going which inspired me to look into as well. I have learned to love the Run Disney events. It appears they offer seasonal Virtual events options from the Run Disney website. (see link HERE ) There were 3 races available to choose from or a full circuit registration containing all 3 races. This came with a bonus medal as well.  Each event was $45.00 and the combined package was $145.00. This was more $$ obviously but ok, I can see they have added in the cost of the extra medal you earn. What does this get me or should I say, what do I get out of this event? I can see the Disney love of just doing it for Disney,  doing it for the medal or doing it to keep momentum of working towards goals. All options seemed very reasonable to me and got me excited, therefore I signed up for the gauntlet. My friend pointed out her whol...

The Garden Grill 2020 experience

 I have always loved the Garden Grill restaurant located in EPCOT.  The food has NEVER disappointed.  The rotating dining room is such a peaceful addition to your setting.  One care barely tell it rotates, it is so slow.  I am pretty positive it takes a full hour to make a full rotation  As it rotates you can get some over view of the Living with the Land Attraction which I absolutely love.  Many of the fresh garden items are harvested directly from that garden (Living with the Land Attraction) .  They serve breakfast lunch and dinner but currently it is only lunch and dinner. Hopefully full operations will be back up and running.  Garden Grill is a set menu all you can eat family style meal. This location offers characters; Mickey, Pluto, Chip & Dale however they are not interacting right now. They do walk around but at a distance.  You can take pictures that look as if they are photo bombing you.  I pray they get back to regu...
