    Am I allowed to go get Beignets at Port Orleans French Quarter if I am not staying at a Disney Resort? Will I be allowed to park at the Resort to eat and shop at the resort?

    Magical greetings, Gina, and welcome back to planDisney! Ahhhh, I see we have another beignet fan in the house! Is there truly anything better than deep fried dough covered in a mountain of powdered sugar? Yes, yes, there is! Mickey-shaped food is always better, and it's the absolute best when it's enjoyed in the middle of The Most Magical Place on Earth, Walt Disney World Resort. Allow me to help you acquire those pillows of sugary goodness.

    I'm pleased to tell you that yes, you can go to Disney's Port Orleans Resort - French Quarter to get your beignets at Scat Cat's Club - Cafe. However, I do have to let you know that parking at the resort is exclusively available to Guests with a hotel, dining or experience reservation. If you don't have one of these, you might be turned away. The best way to get there is from one of the four Disney Theme Parks. You can park at any one of them for a daily fee and then take complimentary Disney Transportation to French Quarter.

    Disney Springs Resort Bus and Water Transportation is also only available to Guests with a hotel, dining or experience reservation, so parking at the theme parks is the way to go. Just make sure you're aware of the closing time for that theme park so you can get back to retrieve your vehicle. Disney Transportation runs for approximately an hour after park closing.

    Gina, I hope this has been helpful to you. We'd love to help you again with any other planning questions you have, so we hope to see you real soon!

    Grab hold of your dreams!
