Quickie breakfast before rope drop-

[aviva5675]

Taking my 2 adult cousins for their first visit to EPCOT next Weds, 10/19. We are all Fla residents, us newly moved and new AP holders.

I plan to get us there about half hour before rope drop. We are driving over that morning early, 90 minutes drive from our houses.

The question is, where to eat a quick breakfast before we go for rope drop? I guess outside the world, nearby... along 192? We are coming down 50 east and then south

At your home? Or some fast food place along the way?

The French Pavillion! The pastries are devine and you can get in earlier than World Showcase opens! They have breakfast type sandwiches as well

But you can't get there before rope drop. You'd have to enter Future World at rope drop and then go all the way back to France for the pastries.

If you are looking to get into the Disney spirit and have a little time to spend, head over to Pop Century and have a Mickey or a Pop waffle. It should take about 10 min to drive to Epcot from there.

How quick is quick? They have a stand outside the gates at Epcot to buy coffee and danish etc. I would personally bring a snack from home and wait until you are inside and enjoy all they have to offer in Epcot.

When I would drive to WDW from Tampa with my cousin, we would grab something from a fast food place as along the way. Usually, I would also have a few snacks with me, just in case. Then when we got to the park, we would grab snacks/drinks about 1-2 hours after we got there.

maybe the stand outside the gates- then we would be there already and can grab a bite. I was thinking of outside the World, cause anywhere (get into the Pop etc) inside might take awhile.

where is the cart outside the gates?

where is the cart outside the gates?

It's not on the side by the monorail exit, the bus arrival or the shuttle from the parking lot. You'd have to walk from the parking lot and enter from the left side of the monorail stairs.
