Not sure why you would limit your group to only eating outside in the sun and heat. All 3 resorts have QS offerings with A/C and shade. A great option is Geyser Point (GP) at the WL via a boat ride from MK. GP is right on Bay lake with a great selection of dining and bar service.
I can verify that the Contemporary does this for Contempo Cafe. When I stayed there and did a mobile order, I got a pop up notification saying that you had to be staying at the Contemporary to make one.
Thanks! I'll read that over. Looks like it is recent, based on the dates of the first comments at the bottom.
I understand what you're saying but I'm not looking to use the pool as we will be in MK that day. I know for a fact that the pool bar at Storm a long pool at BC is gated and when we stayed there, security was always present checking for wristbands BUT I visited in '22 as non-guest and ordered from Hurricane Hannah's from the side of the building that faces Crescent Lake. So some do allow non-guests to order from deluxe pool bars. This is what I am asking about regarding Poly CR etc
Thanks for updating with you DDP QS details. To expand the list would be Roaring Fork at (WL). Contemp Cafe at (CR) varies by what you pick from the menu. Gasparilla Island Grill or the Courtyard Pool Bar at (GF).
Thanks! I will work off of that list! Appreciated!!!
When that message pops up you can dismiss it and still order. It doesn’t verify you’re a guest when you order. It’s just to deter people from ordering when driving to park. If you take Disney transport you can get to it still.
Honestly, if everyone who wanted to get a bite to eat/drink was able to enter the gate the pool area would be invaded. We all know that. How unfair to guests staying at the resort. Not everyone would be respectful even if you would. It would be utter chaos.
You're really not reading the words I'm typing. Let me see if I can try to make you understand one more time: At BC's pool bar "Hurricane Hannah's, non-BC people, those just strolling along the walkway around Crescent Lake, can access a counter and order food WITHOUT entering the gated pool area. I repeat, this side of the pool bar is NOT BEHIND any GATE (read that again!) I've been a guest at BC more than once and have spent many afternoons at the main pool and ordered drinks and food from HH's. I have never witnessed any "utter chaos" due to the invasion you seem to want to imagine of non-resort guest ordering from the BC pool bar. If you read my OP again you will see that I was asking if a similar situation exists at any of the Monorail deluxes. That situation being a window that doesn't require entrance into the gated pool area. I know pool hopping is a touchy subject and I have never once even considered it and so I made a point to be clear that I wasn't interested in entering behind any security for resort guests. Are we clear now???? ETA: The pic I've attached shows the access the public has to HHs. There's even a sign on the public walkway stating it's open, effectively inviting people walking by to come order food.
I did mobile orders both in the morning hours and early afternoon and the pop up showed up both times so I assumed it was a permanent thing. Contempo never had a line either time I went, so it's not really needed IMO.
