Hello my neighbor to the North (I live in Iowa!)
For my family, some of the dining experiences throughout the Walt Disney World Resort are certainly worth the travel time. For example, on a recent trip, my family traveled from our resort hotel to Disney's Hollywood Studios
just to eat at the
50's Primetime Café. We use the travel time to decompress from the hustle and bustle of the parks. But there are a few things to take into consideration. Travel time is greatly dependent on things like which resort hotel you are staying in and whether you will be driving or using Disney transportation. Also, traveling from your resort hotel to a theme park (or vice versa) is pretty effortless. A little more work and time is needed if your are traveling between two different resort hotels. In the latter case, we sometimes opt for a readily available taxi cab. So, I guess my answer to your question is- it depends! But, if you were interested enough in a dining venue to book a reservation, I am guessing it will be worth the drive!
If you have more questions, come on back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel- we love to help!
See ya real soon,
Anne
