Need help deciding

[Haley R]

I need help deciding on some adr’s since my trip is getting closer. I’ll take any advice/opinions. Let me set up my situation so it makes sense. We have one free day and the day after we have Disney after hours so I’m trying to decide what makes the most sense. We won’t be in the parks besides the dah.

Option 1: Eat dinner in mk at cp on dah day

Option 2: Eat dinner in mk at bog (if I get an adr) on dah day

Option 3: Eat dinner at whispering canyon cafe on dah day

DH prefers to not eat a big breakfast on a park day...he doesn't like feeling weighed down while on rides and moving through crowds...so maybe 1900 PF on an off day?

Thanks! I was actually thinking of doing 1900 pf on our off day anyway because we would have to go to gf, back to pop, then back to mk for dah.
Just seems like a lot of traveling

So would you rather eat in mk for dinner during dah or eat at whispering canyon at around 4?

We are attending DAH and ditched our reservation at Boathouse for 4:45 pm that day to get into MK ASAP. Considering MK is your only park day it may make sense to spend as much time there as possible.

Since the After Hours event isn't until 4:30 pm at the earliest, why not do 1900 breakfast that day? Guess I'm voting for option #1

We actually have a full day at mk two days later. Sorry I didn’t mention that.
Do you think traveling to gf for breakfast, back to pop to relax, and back to mk for dah is too much traveling?

I originally planned Whispering Canyon and cancelled (We are doing DAH the same night). We are now planning to get to the MK late afternoon and have an early dinner at Crystal Palace. I wanted to take advantage of using our 3 FP+ before the party, and I thought that eating at Whispering Canyon would put us in the park closer to 6 PM.

I think either of your first two options would work. Are you planning on doing anything else on your DAH day? If not, a late morning breakfast at 1600 PF and going back to the hotel to relax might work well. Depending on what time you plan to get to the MK I don't think the travel time back and forth would be much of an issue.

Nope! What time do you need to be back for Disney at night?

I love on party days (Halloween) to go somewhere for a nice breakfast, then go back to hotel and laze around at pool until party time.

That’s weird I have an adr for crystal palace at 4 pm. Sounds like we have similar plans. My only thing is we have the dining plan so only 1 ts meal that day. Would you do 1900 pf or cp based off that? We aren’t doing anything else on dah day except for relaxing.

I’m thinking we will be let into the mk at 4 pm. I have an adr at cp for 4 pm. So I need to choose between 1900 pf or cp because we can only do one ts meal. (I’m hoping for an adr for bog instead of cp if that changes things for you)

Well, an ADR at 4:00 definitely leaves you enough time to enjoy the evening. Soooo...I vote for 1900 PF the day before and your 4:00 ADR for day of. Option 2. That way you can have a snack later in the night!

Thanks! That’s actually what I’m leaning towards also. I just don’t want our niece to get sick of Winnie the Pooh from both meals so I’m hoping for a bog adr.

I have an opposite opinion than those above, I think its more economical to eat TS breakfast and dinner, and have a snack for lunch. I also enjoy 1900 PF for dinner way more than breakfast. The Stepsisters absolutely make the meal. My 14 year old daughter still talks about a trip 5 years ago where Drucilla told her they were BFF's, it made the whole trip.

We can only do 1 ts per day
