    I have an OpenTable reservation at The Cake Bake Shop at Disney’s BoardWalk. Can I use Disney transportation from Disney Springs to get there? Alternatively, can I park at the BoardWalk with an OpenTable dining reservation?

    Hey there, Rebecca!

    I’m so happy to welcome you to planDisney, and I’m glad you brought your question our way! Your fall visit to the Most Magical Place on Earth is just around the corner. I bet you’re getting more and more excited as your Disney countdown gets closer!

    How incredible that you were able to snag a reservation at The Cake Bake Shop! I haven’t had the chance to dine there myself just yet, but it’s definitely on my Disney dining wish list. The whole place looks SO beautiful and elegant, and the menu? Everything looks absolutely delicious! I’ve heard so many great things about the desserts, too, so I’m definitely hoping to make it there on a future trip. I have a feeling you’ll enjoy every bite!

    To answer your question, you can absolutely use Disney transportation to make your way from Disney Springs to the BoardWalk. Before boarding the bus, you may be asked if you have a dining reservation, so I’d recommend keeping those details handy.

    If you’d rather drive yourself, you can also park at Disney’s BoardWalk for a limited time while you enjoy your meal. When you arrive at the entrance, just let the Cast Member know about your dining reservation and have your reservation number ready. 

    Rebecca, just a little reminder that the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival will be in full swing during your visit! If you’re anything like me and love trying all the delicious festival offerings, I recommend checking out the Foodie Guide on the Disney Parks Blog before you arrive. It’s a great way to get a sneak peek at the dishes and drinks available and start making your must-try list ahead of time. That way, you can hit EPCOT with a game plan and save room for all your favorites!

    Thanks again for visiting us at planDisney! Have a DELICIOUS vacation!

    See ya real soon,
