we have used Garden grocer before you have to make a min order of $40.00 for them to deliver to your disney hotel we used it when we would not rent a car a got some snacks and water and pop to carry with us when in the park or just for relaxing in the room. they will leave your grocery's with the luggage desk and if it is not in your room you call down and they will bring it up

We have not used grocery delivery but I wanted to note that you will not have a fridge unless you rent one. From the resort store, we get a loaf of bread and peanut butter for breakfast. We find DDP or QSDP is enough food, use snacks to buy 500ml milk and always have extra credits for snacks to bring home.

We ordered with them 2 years ago, and it was awesome! We drink alot of water, especially when it's hot so I ordered two cases. I also ordered cereal, cookies, chips, snacks for the evening, breakfast items etc...
We just picked it all up from the luggage area and took it to our room. I had packed a soft sided (24 can size) cooler, used the ice machines to keep anything I needed to keep cold and kept it in the bathtub. It worked great!

Last year we rented a car, so we stopped at Publix on our way in. We also had the dining plan, but we aren't the type to wake early and get to breakfast before we start our day. We wake around 8:30 and everyone eats or nibbles as they get ready, we don't eat much breakfast!

Have a wonderful trip, so many memories....

Thank you for all the info.

We ordered from them last trip and had breakfast in the room. That way we used our CS credit for lunch. We ordered bagels, cream cheese, yogurt, milk, juice, juice boxes and a case of water. Disney keeps the refrigerated items cold until you pick it up. Much cheaper than buying food in the resort store and no need to rent a car or get a taxi.

we've used them five times and the service has always been great. we usually get the dining plan and use the qs and ts for while were in the parks and eat breaky in our room. so we order milk, cereal, poptarts, water(case), pop for hubby, snack foods for us and the kids and now that we are dvc members we pick up pb and bread for toast in the ams.

we;ve only ever had one issue, 2 yrs ago our second 4 lt of milk went sour before we opened it and long before expiry. we called gg and by afternoon one had been delivered to the resort for us. in december they called us to say our order had been left with bell services at blt.

I've used them twice and will be using them again in August. Everything was in great condition and your resort will keep the cold items cold for you. If you want to order any alcohol you do have to fax them a copy of your ID so they know you're of legal age.
It is a little pricey, but for many things, it's cheaper than what the resort will charge. I liked the convenience of having fresh fruit, yogurt and other breakfast items on hand that I couldn't bring from home. I bring my own cereal/oatmeal packs/granola bars from home as they travel well.
It's my understanding that the value resorts will all have refrigerators soon and that Pop already has them. But I would double check before you order anything dairy. You could though, bring a collapsible cooler from home and keep it full of ice in your bathtub.

We were at ASMO in March, they don't have refrigerators as yet. From what I've read, they will be beverage coolers, not necessarily refrigerators. But unless you need to freeze something, they'll be better than nothing!!

We've used them on our past trips and will be using them again this fall. It is super easy to order online from them and, unless you are ordering alcohol, you do NOT have to be present to take delivery - your resort's luggage services can take delivery for you. In fact, both times we used GG, we were not at the resort when the orders were delivered and when we got the keys to our room, our order was already in the room (including the refrigerated items having been put into the fridge). I highly recommend GG
