Do ALL counter service locations require using mobile ordering?

[Tormania]

Trying to figure out our counter service dining options for lunches and dinners for our trip and was curious if every counter service location uses mobile ordering or just the "larger" ones. I'm trying to find a balance between being able to eat when people in my group are hungry .vs having to basically treat mobile ordering like same day ADRs and having to pick places and times earlier in the day and then have to work around food pick up times. I've heard that some places can have the next pick up time as much as 2 hrs or later than current time so that is a problem obviously if kiddos are hungry on short notice.

Or is it just the more popular places that have the delayed windows and other places the waits are more like the 30 minute variety?

Mostly just the larger ones. Many of the smaller ones and carts do not. The app will tell you which ones do/do not.

Thanks, don't know why I didn't think to check the app, that helps immensely!!!!

We were at BCV about three weeks ago and could place an order at the check out for the Marketplace in lieu of using Mobile Order.

On our most recent trips (first week of September and second week of October) we found mobile order to be really convenient. Most of the time we ordered and set set a pick up time a few minutes away. We did get in the habit of clicking "I'm here - prepare my order" while still walking over because we were waiting so long for pick up after arriving. Satu'li Canteen (my favorite!) in AK was full both times we ate there. You couldn't even walk inside until your screen said your order was ready. Pick up windows were also for an hour or so later because it was so busy. Every other mobile order quick service restaurant had the option to walk in and order as well, though you might have to wait in a line outside first. Primo at RIV is an excellent quick service place for any meal of the day. We also had a really good lunch at Contempo Cafe. Have a great trip!

That's good to know! I sometimes like to see availability of especially bakery items. Mobile order doesn't seem to list everything.
