7 Reasons Why We Think Mobile Ordering Is a Game Changer
If you’re planning a visit to Walt Disney World then there’s a very special tool that will absolutely revolutionize the way that you dine at the theme parks. Disney’s Mobile Order Service is the ultimate in quick service dining convenience allowing you to order and pre-pay for your Disney World quick service meals in advance. To give you a sense of how this awesome tool can work for you here’s seven reasons why we here at MickeyBlog think it is a game changer.
1. You Can Access Mobile Order From Your My Disney Experience App
If you’re heading to Disney World chances are you already have the My Disney Experience App installed on your smartphone to keep track of FastPass reservations and to check out attraction wait times. That means you’re already set up to unlock the potential of mobile ordering! All you need to do is open the My Disney Experience App on your cell phone while at the parks or resorts (the service is GPS activated so this is not a feature you can explore at home). Simply look for the Mobile Order icon, select your restaurant from a drop-down list, peruse the menus and you’re off!
2. Skip the Lines at Disney World’s Busiest Restaurants
If you’ve ever tried to visit one Disney World’s quick service eateries during lunch time you know that crowds can be heavy and lines long. However, you can skip all this with mobile ordering. When you pre-pay for your items using the Mobile Order service there’s no need to wait at the hectic restaurant cashier lines. Order your food from anywhere in the park and as you near the restaurant simply press the button allowing you to let the restaurant know when you are on your way to pick up your food! Once you arrive at the restaurant simply look for the Mobile Order Pick-Up Window where your food will be waiting for you!
3. Plan Your Lunch While Waiting in Line for Your Favorite Attractions
We’ve all been there! You’re midway through a 60-minute wait at Space Mountain when your tummy starts to rumble. Why not use this opportunity to find a quick service restaurant in the area, order up some tasty grub and pre-pay. Once you’ve finished your favorite attraction then let the restaurant know you’re on your way to pick up your food and you’ll be tucking into some delicious treats in no time!

6. Allergy-Friendly Options
If you’re visiting Walt Disney World and suffer from food allergies, knowing what menu items to choose from can be a tricky business. In this way, Mobile Order can be really helpful. As you peruse the menus, you’ll typically find allergy-friendly categories to choose from. Being able to do this while strolling through the parks or waiting in line at a ride means you can look through options without feeling pressured to make a selection!
7. No ADRs, No Worries!
Though there are many visitors who like to plan out Disney stays with military-like precision, there are also last minute visitors, local residents or those preferring to wing it when it comes to dining! With Mobile Order not having a table service dining plan or a ton of advanced dining reservations no longer means throngs of crowds or long waits. Mobile ordering is perfect for those looking for on-the-fly dining options but without the crowds! Trust us when we say it makes for a kinder, gentler visit to the Mouse!
