Early morning ADR at Chef Mickeys, help

[elgerber]

I know this has been discussed a million times, but I can't get the search to work today. I made a 7:20 ADR for breakfast at Chef Mickey's. I have read the bus runs 2 hours prior to park opening, which would by 7 am. Seems a bit tight. Will I be able to catch a bus to Chef Mickey's early enough? I am not sure if we will have a car or not, but we will want to go straight to the MK anyway. Would we need a taxi instead? And how much might that cost from the boardwalk?

Thanks!!

there are early morning busses just for the breakfasts and behind the scenes tours around WDW.

The MK area busses start running before 6:30AM. Be out at the bus stop about 6:30 (just in case you missed the previous bus). When you get on the bus, tell the driver you need to go to the CR. He MAY be able to drop you off right at the CR if he has time. If not, you can take the resort monorail (starts at 7AM) or just walk to the CR from the MK bus depot. (about 5 minutes).

For the other parks, the busses start running about 7AM for the breakfasts.

We had an early Chef Mickeys also - we were at the YC - we missed the early MK bus - so we taxied - with tip about $15 - well worth it.

But beware the taxi drops you off on the bottom floor of the CR.
We had to walk up (we only found stairs at the time - new to CR) a few flights of stairs to find Chef Mickeys.

So - if you do not see a bus within 5 minutes - get a taxi.
For 7:20 AM - I would start to look for a bus around 6:35 AM (wow early on vacation)

Are the taxis readily available, or do they have to call for one?
