Hi Lori,
Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! Congratulations to you for getting a reservation at Be Our Guest! It is one of my family's favorite restaurants.
Even the best laid plans can go awry, so we have occasionally arrived late to a dining reservation. Typically, we are no more than 15 minutes late and the cast members have been gracious enough to still accommodate our party. With Be Our Guest, you can take advantage of
Order Ahead Dining up to 30 days in advance. I strongly advise you to order ahead. On one visit, we did not order ahead and even though we had a dining reservation, we waited for more than 30 minutes to place our order and get seated.
The good news is that guests using dining plans may now use those meal entitlements when mobile ordering and when ordering ahead at Be Our Guest. Check out this Disney Parks Blog post on
Mobile Order Now Available for Guests Using Disney Dining Plans. I am delighted to share that there are a number of dining locations now offering
Mobile Food and Beverage Ordering. On our last visit, we walked into Satu'li Canteen while on expedition on Pandora. The line appeared to be miles long so I ordered our food using the My Disney Experience Mobile App. We had our food within a few minutes.
Lori, be sure to download the
My Disney Experience Mobile App if you have not done so already!
Magic, memories and Minnie Mouse hugs,
Donyell
