ADR's before the park opens?

How do I get in to the parks early for our Breakfast ADRs??

There is usually a separate turnstyle that has a sign on it for people with ADR's. There is a CM that has a list to make sure you do have ADR's and they will let you in once they have verified you.

All the parks that offer breakfasts before park opening time have a turnstile open for people with dining reservations. The Cast Member will check your name on the dining list before they admit you. I suggest you have your ADR confirmation number with you also.
WDW runs early buses for the breakfasts all around the resort. The Magic Kingdom service begins at 6:30am daily and it's 7:00am for the rest of the World. If you are eating at a resort tell the bus driver and if time allows he/she will drop you off at the resort rather than at the theme park entrance.

A follow up question if you don't mind me hijacking the thread for a minute...

Is it possible to schedule ADR's before the park opening that would have you be done your meal before the park opens? If so, what do you do once you are finished your meal?

Just curious. Thanks!

Question - I scheduled poorly and have an 8:10 a.m. breakfast ADR for CRT at Magic Kingdom on an early open day there. So the park is opening at 8:00 a.m. and the CM taking me reservation for something else told me I should go early and they'll let me in so I can beat any rush into the park and to the castle. Any idea HOW long before your ADR they let you in? I'm thinking I want in by 7:45.

We had an 8:05ADR at the CRT on an early entry day. They didn't let us in until 8:00AM when the park opened. We were a few minutes late but there was no problem. The gate CMs said they don't let people in before 8 and the restuarants know and expect that.

Our ADR is 9:10 on a day where the park opens at 9:00 - They will let us in early to the park to get to the castle - right??
