Rainforest Cafe dinner ADR: Where do we park?

[Cackyschmackers]

I'm sorry if I'm not posting this in the right spot, but: I know everything is under renovation in Downtown Disney, which is affecting parking, but I just called Rainforest Cafe and the woman told me to park in the West end and take the ferry, but she wasn't sure if the ferry would even be available. We are driving bc the hotel shuttles have inflexible times. Does anyone know the parking situation? Someone said we could park in the "cast" lot, but the woman on the phone just said the West end (near Planet Hollywood and Cirque). How bad is the situation? I haven't been to RC in 13 years and was really looking forward to taking my kids on this, their first trip!

The Orange Garage (first of two being built) is open.

And we walk from there? How long a walk? We are driving in and I am wondering how much time we should give ourselves.

Once parked, I would allow 10-15 minutes to walk to RC.

Thanks! So we don't need to worry about ferry? (although it would be fun).

It is about a half mile give or take. Add enough time to make that walk at a slow pace to account for crowds you might run into along the way.

Only if you want to.
