Mobile Ordering at the Walt Disney World Resort

Visiting the Walt Disney World Resort is a magical experience, and now, with the convenience of mobile ordering, you can spend more time enjoying the attractions and less time waiting in line for food. The My Disney Experience app makes it easy to order food and beverages from your favorite quick-service restaurants throughout the Disney theme parks and Disney Springs. 

Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to use mobile ordering during your visit.

Why Use Mobile Ordering?

Mobile ordering allows you to: 
  • Save Time: Skip the lines and order food in advance.
  • Convenience: Customize your order and pay directly through the app.
  • Flexibility: Choose from over 60 participating locations across the Walt Disney World Resort.

How to Mobile Order Using the My Disney Experience App

Follow these simple steps to make the most of mobile ordering:
  1. Download the My Disney Experience App: If you've already downloaded the app, make sure you have the latest version of the app installed on your smartphone. It’s available for both iOS and Android devices.
  2. Log In to Your Disney Account: Open the app and log in with your Disney account credentials. If you don’t have an account, you can create one within the app.
  3. Select “Order Food”: Tap the “+” icon at the bottom center of the screen and choose “Order Food” from the menu.
  4. Choose a Restaurant: Browse the list of available quick-service restaurants and select the one you’d like to order from. You can filter by location, cuisine, and more.
  5. Set Your Arrival Time: Pick an available arrival window that suits your schedule. This helps the restaurant prepare your order just in time for your arrival.
  6. Customize Your Order: Browse the menu, select your desired items, and customize them to your liking. You can add or remove ingredients, choose sides, and more.
  7. Review and Pay: Once you’ve made your selections, review your order and proceed to payment. You can pay using a credit card, debit card, Disney Gift Card, Disney Rewards Redemption Card, Apple Pay, or one of the Disney Dining Plans.
  8. Notify the Restaurant: When you arrive at the restaurant during your designated time, open the app and tap “I’m Here, Prepare My Order.” This alerts the kitchen to start preparing your food.
  9. Pick Up Your Order: You’ll receive a notification when your order is ready. Head to the counter with the “Mobile Order Pick Up” sign to collect your food.

Tips for a Smooth Mobile Ordering Experience

  • Plan Ahead: Check the app for restaurant hours and menu options before you get hungry.
  • Stay Connected: Ensure your phone has a good internet connection to avoid any delays.
  • Use Discounts: If you’re eligible for discounts (e.g., Annual Passholder, Disney Vacation Club Member), make sure they’re applied to your order.
Mobile ordering at the Walt Disney World Resort is a fantastic way to streamline your dining experience, giving you more time to enjoy the magic of the parks. Happy dining!

Cruising with a Baby: A Complete Guide

You took a baby on a cruise!? Yep, and I'd do it again knowing what I know now. So, say goodbye to months of research - Everything you need to know is here!! One of the biggest challenges of traveling with a baby is planning what you need to bring. I wanted to share what worked for us, and hopefully help others who are planning their cruise! Remember, babies can only cruise after their 6-month birthday on sailings from the U.S. If you are going transatlantic, or have more than three days out at sea, they must be 12 months old by the first day of your cruise. Pre-Cruise   We flew to the cruise port, and I couldn’t bring all the food and snacks I needed, so I placed an Instacart order for pick up near the port. I chose Publix in Cocoa Beach which is a few miles from Port Canaveral. I placed the order a few days before we left home, and set the pickup time to 11:00 a.m. I ordered formula, a box of diapers, swim diapers, bottle brush, dish soap, baby food, and baby snacks. I also broug...

The Villas at the Disneyland Hotel Review

I love staying at the Disneyland Hotel so when I got the opportunity to stay at the new Villas at the Disneyland Hotel during opening weekend, I couldn’t pass it up. Because it was opening weekend, we were greeted in the entrance way of the lobby with balloons and many photo opportunities. When we arrived, there was a mural of the Haunted Mansion. I love how the seats in the main lobby were designed like the teacups in the parks. You can check in using the Disneyland app, drop your bags with bell services and head into the parks or use the amenities why you wait until your room is ready. When your room is ready, the resort will send you a text and you can use the Disneyland app on your mobile device to unlock the room. We dropped off our bags and went straight to the parks. We received a text around 1PM that our room was ready. In the new Discovery Tower (the Villas), you'll find that the lobby is very spacious with many places to sit while you read or wait for your family. Th...
