Other options besides Garden Grocer?

That $15 delivery fee combined with the overpriced sundries is killing me.
many other suggestions for delivery to CBR?

We used Amazon Prime for delivery to YC. The only fee I paid was $6 because I had Bell Services deliver to our room instead of picking it up myself. Not sure if Amazon Prime has what you need, but our service was flawless.

Instacart, DizzyDolphin Delivery, Amazon Prime, take an Uber and shop yourself, or if you only need a few basics the resort gift shops sell a limited selection of grocery items.

We used Walmart to deliver to Boardwalk.

Or take a towncar from the airport to your hotel, and request a grocery store stop when you make the reservation.

Or rent a car if you're comfortable driving and the rates aren't through the roof.

We used Amazon Prime Now, no fees because it was over $35. They left it with Bell Services, so I expected a charge but didn't get one; even so, $6 is a lot better than the $15 from Garden Grocer.

DizzyDolphin has done a good job for me and the prices were good.

Dizzy Dolphin gave me numerous, low quality substitutions that ruined my meal planning. Think mystery ground meat in a tube instead of extra lean ground beef or discount brand chicken breasts instead of air chilled chicken breasts. If you are using them for a few pop tarts they might be okay, but steer clear if you are doing a full shop and want quality ingredients. I stick to Garden Grocer.

Hmmm that is too bad, I am sorry that happened! We have never ordered meat, just fruit, yogurt, drinks and snacks. The only issue we had was one time the bananas that they brought were too ripe, but we told them and they replaced them for us.

I've used Amazon Prime Now multiple times and never had an issue. Free delivery and dropped off directly at Bell Services.

I usually place the order prior to boarding the plane on arrival day, and choose a delivery window for later that evening.

Yes. It was too bad because they were great to deal with. When I did a small order of basics—deli meat, eggos, bread, cereal, milk, etc. No trouble. But for a full grocery shop they were not a good choice. I always mention it when people enquire because it really caused me cooking troubles on that trip. My family couldn’t eat the low quality food. The meats were particularly awful.

On the Prime Now website, enter the Lake Buena Vista, FL zip code.




Then, go to your account settings, and add the address of the resort where you will be staying. In this example, I'm staying at Wilderness Lodge. I always start the Full Name with "GUEST:" so that Bell Services knows that I'm a guest at the resort.




Finally, when you go to check out, I leave a note to drop the groceries off at Bell Services. I also put my name and WDW package confirmation number in this field.




Hope this helps!

That is so very helpful thank you so so much for taking the time to do that

I have Amazon Prime but we don't have Amazon Prime Now in our area at home. Can I still use this feature at Disney?
Can you set up the orders a few days ahead of time, or does an order have to be delivered right away?

Yes, since Lake Buena Vista is covered by Prime Now Delivery, if you enter your resort's address, it will show you're eligible.

I believe you can schedule delivery a few days in advance, but this may have changed. You can tell on the checkout page when you go to select a delivery window. What I do, is put everything in my shopping cart, and then use the Prime Now app on my phone a few hours prior to arrival at my resort to place the order.

Thanks so much for this reply and for your above post with the demonstration. So, ultimately what I would like to do is schedule 3 separate orders before we leave home. We're doing something crazy on our next trip, starting at the Polynesian, moving to Saratoga Springs, and then ending the trip at Boardwalk. I'm going to try to pack light and then do grocery orders for exactly what we need at each location. Do you think I'll be able to do that? I'd like to place all three orders before we leave home so that I don't have to think about it once there.

You should be able to. Just make sure you enter the correct delivery/resort address for each order. Good luck

Well, that seems obvious, but you're right to point it out. Haha That could be a mess! Thanks!

Dumpling app - Kevin Orlando Delivery Butler. He’s a former cast member that was furloughed with COVID shutdowns. He is great and I can’t recommend him enough. He has a $25 delivery fee but the groceries are purchased at cost. There are about 5 local stores to choose from. It was very cost effective. There is a Facebook group called Ear For Each Other. He partners with Deliveries by Dee, which I found through the group.
