First, for any Disney related travel plans, let me encourage you to utilize the service of a travel professional that specializes in Disney Destinations.
The Benefit of Mobile Order at Disney
Mobile ordering your food is very convenient and easy at the Disney Parks and resorts. Instead of standing in a line at food service locations, you simply order and pay for the food through the Disney app and pick it up when it’s ready.
Mobile order is available for most quick service locations at both the parks and Disney resorts. It is recommended that you place your order in advance of the time you would like to eat. I’ll discuss more on that below.

You Have a Mobile Order, What’s Next?
You will be notified by alert in the app when your pickup time window opens. What’s next?
- You will also be asked to let the food service location know when you are nearby so they can begin preparing your order.
- Once you alert them to do that, you will then be notified when your order is ready for pickup.
- There is a mobile order pickup window at each location.
Pick up your food, have a seat and enjoy!
Tips For the Best Mobile Order Experience
- Order food in advance of the time you want to eat. Why? Sometimes pickup windows aren’t available right away. If you wait until you’re hungry, you could get hangry waiting longer.
- Familiarize yourself with the process BEFORE you get to the parks. You can create orders without purchasing from anywhere
- Familiarize yourself with food service locations and menus before heading to the parks. If you already have an idea of what you want to eat you avoid being overwhelmed.
- You can place a mobile order from your resort quick service location. Wake up and order breakfast- it will be ready by the time you get there.
