24 hour service

[amcjeep4life]

I tend to be a bit of an insomniac when I am excited. And since I will be at WDW, I expect it to kick in full tilt. My question is, is there someplace I can go to hang out, maybe grab a drink or a little snack at 2 am? We are staying CL at the AKL, but I believe the CL lounge closes around 11 or so. Is Mara open 24 hours? If I have a refillable cup, can I just swing down there, grab a coffee or soda and hang out in the lobby, maybe read a book? At home, it's only my DH to worry about, and he is used to me getting in and out of bed at weird hours, since I also work odd hours, and can be called out anytime to deal with emergencies. While at WDW, we will have our 2 nieces with us, and I would hate to keep them up because I can't sleep. Any ideas would be helpful. And yes, I did say coffee at 2 am. And I'm not talking 'bout that decaf crap either. Caffeine is my friend. It does not keep me awake at all, but gives me a raging headache when I don't have it.

looks like Mara closes at 11Pm.

even room service stops at midnight.

maybe you should consider a DVC unit -then at least you can make your own coffee.

I don't know about coffee served in the lobby - like Polyn. that might be 24 hours if they do it.

but yes you can definitely go to lobby and read a book.

someone else say that the animals are on display 24 hours.

I always bring my 'take-2' coffee maker with me! I would think that you could always go to the lobby and ask one of the CH's there for a cup or two of coffee if need be!

Bumping......anyone else have any ideas where I can hang out at 2 am?

Everything involving food and drink on Disney property closes at midnight. Hanging out in the lobby is a good option for reading a book, but no food will be available. Off property is your best bet for an after midnight snack. Enjoy your vacation!

Go Downtown and hang at Pleasure Island. I'm not sure of their hours but I know they are open to the wee hours

Your room will have a coffeemaker.

AKL has many little spots where you could sit and read.

For 24 hour food though you'd have to make your way to the monorail resorts. The counter service spots there are open 24/7 although grills don't operate from 11pm - 6 am.

Pleasure Island closes at 2am. Disney transportation closes for the night pretty much at that point. So leaving your resort and going to another becomes difficult to impossible unless you take a cab.

Every room at the AKL has a coffee maker in it so you could make yourself a cup of coffee and head to the lobby. The lobby of the AKL is amazing.

Thanks all. I guess I could make coffe before we go to bed, then turn it off and let it get cold. Ice coffee is better anyway. Somehow I think trying to make coffee at 2 am would wake everyone in the room up, which is exactly what I am trying to avoid. I appreciate all the help! Thanks
