    When visiting Disney Springs can we just go into City Works for a drink and if so, do we need a reservation?

    Welcome to planDisney, Andrew!

    Ooh, we love spending a little free time at Disney Springs, so your idea of heading into City Works Eatery & Pour House is a great one!

    Guests are absolutely welcome to stop into City Works for a drink. If there is room, you can do so without a reservation. That being said, have you seen the City Works menu? Soo many delicious bar bites, craveable shareable plates, tasty tacos, succulent salads, juicy burgers, classic sandwiches and upscale entrees. You might head in for a drink, but if you even glance at that menu, you might find a dish or two that you just have to try. So darn good!

    Andrew, if you have your heart set on sampling something in particular at any Walt Disney World Table-Service restaurant, I always recommend booking a reservation. While some may have plenty of seats upon arrival, others might be packed at peak hours, leaving you looking elsewhere if there's no room at the inn. Just keep in mind that guests can cancel or modify reservations at least two hours in advance of arrival; if you book a reservation and plans change while you are still outside of that two hour window, simply modify. The My Disney Experience app is great for making changes as you tour. Easy peasy!

    As you put together your pixie-dusted plans for your visit to The Most Magical Place on Earth, Andrew, be sure to send additional questions our way. We love to help!
