Hi Susan,
Thnak you for sending your question to us here at the Disney Parks Moms Panel. It sounds like you and your family are really hoping to maximize your time in the Theme Parks making Quick-Service Dining your best choice.
Advanced Dining Reservations are recommended for Table-Service Dining Locations, as well as Be Our Guest Restaurant for Breakfast and Lunch since those are Quick-Service as well. Other than that, guests do not require reservations for dining at Quick-Service Restaurants throughout Walt Disney World Resort. If you would like to save even more time, I would recommend using the new
Mobile Food and Beverage Ordering on My Disney Experience, it is quick and simple! All you need to do is open the My Disney Experience App and tap on your character to get started. From there, scroll down to My plans and select the “order food” link. Then follow the instructions on the screen to select your restaurant of choice and order your meals. When you arrive at the Dining Location, click the button that says “I’m here, prepare my order” and you will receive a notification when your order is ready.
I hope you have a fantastic time at Walt Disney World Resort, Susan. Please let us know if you have any other questions, we are always happy to help.
Stephanie
