Fastest Way to get Coffee in the Morning?

[MATTERHORN]

Not sure if it was mentioned, but there is a coffee stand in the lobby of the Contemporary! When we stayed at Bay Lake last month, I just used the skyway to go over and get my coffee and then either went back to the room if I had time or met them on the walkway to MK and it was pretty much perfect timing. That said, if it is that important to you, just get up ten minutes earlier. The lines there were NOT like a Starbucks!

Me too and usually this flavor can be sold out since it is a favorite
They have other flavors but Cafe Francais can be used to make a cup coffee w just hot water or in microwave. And/ or as a substitute for cream & sugar.

yes! You can get a good deal on 4 packs on Amazon! I love this flavor because it's not so sweet.

Thank you! Yes, as mentioned I’m not interested in making coffee in my room. I’m hoping to figure our the fastest way to buy coffee in the morning post-COVID19, so this information was very helpful.

Does anyone know if this works similarly at BWV or BLT these days in the morning, where there is a separate line for drinks, now that it’s not self-serve? Thanks!

At Boardwalk Bakery you go in the exit door for beverage refills.

Thank you both! I will try these strategies (as well as maybe buying one the night before and sticking it in the fridge to have cold if need be).

Thanks for all the responses, everyone. Happy planning to all the coffee drinkers out there!

If you plan to get coffee every day, look into the refillable drink holders that Disney sells. It'll pay for itself after 4 or 5 drinks.

In the past I have packed an insulated coffee mug with lid and brought coffee from the room into the parks in the morning.
Is that still allowed?

There is no eating or drinking on the Bus. No eating or drinking while walking in the parks.

On longer stays we've packed the disposable insulated type coffee cups with lids Had no problem taking them on the bus in the AM.
Can't recall if we walked into parks with them, we were probably done drinking our coffee by the time we made it, walked to the bus, waited for the bus and then sat on the bus to the ride to the park!

Last trip in October of 2020 I stayed in BCV (Studio), and brought a kettle, a coffee grinder and a pour over filter. Delicious coffee every morning whenever I wanted. Information in the room said a electric kettle was available on request, so no kettle might be needed.

The first half of our trip is at the BWV. I know sometimes the Boardwalk Bakery lines can be crazy. If I mobile order ahead of time or buy a refillable mug will either of these help me get plain hot coffee very quickly?

We usually get the refillable mug. I run down and fill it. The coffee machine is to the side at Boardwalk Bakery, so you don't have to wait on line.

All the villas have a coffee maker. Either a 4-6 cup or 10-12 cup Mr Coffee style coffee maker. Plus each villa has a microwave to heat up water if you prefer that.

For very early mornings, I've gotten Starbucks iced coffees and put them in the fridge overnight. We frequently book the earliest flights leaving mco, and I pack a five hour energy for that 3 a.m. wake up.

The problem with that now is that masks are required on transportation and unless stationary in the parks.

Technically there was to be no eating or drinking on the busses before, but I never saw that enforced.

Coffee is necessary and there is no way I'd be able to, or want to, wait until I got to Starbucks in the parks!

In a regular room - refillable mug and go down to QS. I will use the Keurigs if forced, but imo they aren't great.

In a DVC room - make your own. I brought a bag of ground coffee, flat bottom coffee filters and used Amazon to get my preferred creamer. The paper coffee cups were fine and I was able to get more from mousekeeping.
