Question about dining during MNSSHP

[Mom2bk]

Hello. I wanted to know if anyone has dined at Magic Kingdom during MNSSHP. Is it worth the effort to search for a character meal after 4p or should we just do a counter service meal and get in as much time as can with special activities? This will be our first time during MNSSHP and first time staying on site. Thanks for your help!

I'm preparing for our 2nd party in Sept. Last year we went in at 530pm and did a QS in tommorowland. Our agenda was do as many rides, watch parade, and fireworks. We enjoyed this aspect and think trick or treating was waste of time with our two little ones.

This year we are going in at 4pm, have reservation at CP at 4:25pm and the same agenda. I "scored" the reservation 90 days out. So keep trying.

Have fun!

Usually we have a TS at Tony's between 5:00 and 7:00 and then stay and enjoy the activities. It works well for us because, while I enjoy seeing the villains and rare characters, the highlight is the rides and the parade, which we usually see both times.

Last year I think we did a counter service or ate at the resort, but it wasn't the best MNSSHP we've been at due to weather and my lousy attitude. So I may be completely misremembering.

This year we're going a completely different route because we changed our minds at the last minute (well, comparatively speaking, seeing as we're actually not going until September) and having an early-ish dinner at EPCOT and then going straight to the party.

Thanks! I scored an 11a breakfast at 1900 Park Fare for the day of MNSSHP! so we will eat there, relax at the pool and then be in line at 4p at MK! Can't wait

What is the earliest ADR you can have if you only have the MNSSHP ticket for the day?

You can enter the MK using only the party ticket starting at 4:00. You'll need to allow time to get through the turnstiles, get your wristband and trick or treat bag and walk to the restaurant so probably no earlier than 4:20 or 4:30.
