Coffee at 6am?

[bbeagle]

What's the best way to get coffee at 6am?

We're staying at the Polynesian - none of the resort restaurants open that early, right? 7:00?

Is there any way to get coffee to fill your refillable mugs before the restaurants open? Or are those not accessible when a restaurant closes?

Or is the best way to make coffee in your rooms with a Keurig or old-fashioned coffee maker?

We set up the coffee pot the night before so we can hit start and have coffee on the balcony a few minutes later without getting out of our pj's!

I think Kona Island opens at 6:30, but that's the earliest I'm seeing.

Genius idea. I'm always fumbling around in the dark, trying to be quiet and not wake anyone, so I can enjoy my first cup in peace.

That’s my biggest complaint with the refillable mugs that quick service open at 7 now . Super frustrating. We leave to make it to rope drop so no coffee other than in the room . Now the mugs are $ 21.99 ! Just went up $2 ! Crazy

Trek over to Gasparilla's at the GF. It's open at 6:00 a.m.

Inconvenient, I admit, but a nearby use of your refillable whenever early desperation strikes.

Sitting on Gaspy's terrace to eat/drink that early is typically a peaceful wakeup.

HUGE advantage the All-Star Resorts have-their Beverage Islands are accessible 24/7.

My wife can't function without coffee. So, she won't be able to make that walk.

I guess we'll bring our Keurig from home, or she'll force me on a 5:45am walk every morning.

Yeah, 6:30am Kona Island is the earliest available at Poly. Press Pot FTW.

When we stayed at the Poly, I got our coffee at the Oasis pool in the morning with our refillable mugs...but maybe it was only 6:30 or later? It wasn't that long ago, don't know why I can't remember!

If you’re willing to pay, Starbucks through Uber Eats.

That is one thing Disney has never really done well....coffee shops at resorts. It's not easy to get a quick cup of coffee on property in the mornings. Coronado is probably my favorite. Boardwalks lounge is probably my second favorite....but lately I say I'm going to get us coffee and come back with bloody Marys

Luckily the in-room coffee is pretty good. I prefer iced so I usually brew at night and stick the coffee pot in the fridge

We bring a French press. It makes delicious coffee.

I hear ya! When I stayed at SSR I had to wait until 8 to use refillable mugs. I get bottled water and use that to make coffee in the room for park days. It is just okay. I like stronger coffee.

There is a coffee maker in the rooms at Poly. If milk is needed, I just get some in the resort shop when we arrive and keep it in the fridge. It's not the best coffee in the world, but it gets me going before the QS opens.

Isn’t that only for the regular rooms? The DVC rooms have coffee pots, right?

 

[MICKIMINI]

We bring a pound of DD ground coffee (it was only $8.99 last week at DD) and a smaller bag of decaf plus filters. We buy water and creamer when out and about. Just like home!

100% agree with this..they have never done coffee well at the resorts.

It kills me they haven’t figured out how to play nice with Starbucks or Joffreys for their hotels to run an in-hotel shop. Have you seen Cabana Bay Sbux? The money they are losing Disney

Riviera is the other one that has an ok coffee shop.
