So now that I have more TS meals planned than I have time for, I may book 1900 park fare supper on our MK day. I want to go after the parade and before the ELP. How much time does it take to go from MK to GF's 1900, eat and back??
 
I would say 15-20 minutes to get to GF by boat or monorail. Another 15-20 minutes to be seated. About an hour to eat and have all the characters visit the table. Another 15-20 minutes to return to MK.

Count on a 1 1/2 hours to 2 hours. It hard to give exact times, never know how long you'll have to wait for transportation. I would say thats a rough guess.
 
IMHO, you should leave yourself at least 2 hours. Nothing spoils a meal faster than trying to rush to get somewhere. Spoiled our dinner at the Wave a couple of years ago.
 
2-3 hours - once youheead out of the park and get to boat or monorail, if your timing is off, you may wait 15-20 minutes for the next one, The figure 20 minutes or so to got TO the GF, then there is check in and wiat to be seated

Figure an 60-90 minutes for meal and paying (this can take time to get check, send it back with server, have ti returned then signed) then repeat back to MK.

If your timing is spot on 2 hours. If your timing is off more like 3
 

I had to wait almost one hour for a table.

I booked a 5pm dinner and when I hadn't been called at 5:30pm I asked why it was taking so long and the CM said dinner started at 4:30pm so I had to wait til the first set of diners were done. I booked 5pm as I thought that was the first seating.
 
I'd suggest Kona Cafe (Poly) or The Wave... (Contemporary) if you want to get back to the park faster. I've eaten at both recently and the food was good and service was pretty quick.
 
If time is a consideration have you thought about trying Gasparilla's Grill & Games which is the counter service location for the Grand Floridian.
