Hey there, hi there Danielle! Thanks so much for visiting with the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
Anytime you are using
Disney's complimentary transportation system, be sure to give yourself enough to time arrive to your destination on time. I would suggest to begin your journey to
Chef Mickey's at least an hour before your reservation. If you make it to the Contemporary early, just take a stroll through the resort.
There are several options for getting to
Disney's Contemporary Resort, where Chef Mickey's is located. Some of your decision could be based on where you are located within Epcot when you are ready to head to Chef Mickey's.
*If you are in World Showcase, which is where the various countries are located, I would suggest to take the ferry from
Epcot to
Disney's Hollywood Studios and take a bus to Disney's Contemporary Resort. From the bus stop, walk into the resort past the front desk and head up two floors.
*If you are in Future World, take the Monorail to the Ticket and Transportation Center and transfer to the Resort Monorail. This Monorail will stop inside Disney's Contemporary Resort. You'll just head down one floor, and Chef Mickey's is right there. If the Monorail system is not operating, then take a bus to Disney's Contemporary Resort.
*If you're in a rush to get to your dining reservation, exit Epcot through Future World and take a car service such as Uber, Lyft or a taxi. This is an inexpensive cost to save time, and you will be dropped off at the front doors of Disney's Contemporary Resort.
Be sure to have an empty stomach when it's time to eat! Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, and Pluto have prepared so much food for you to enjoy!
Happy planning,
Korliss
