What are your Eating Times?

[real mad hatter]

Good Morning Everyone.Curious as ever but do you have a schedule for when you have breakfast,lunch,dinner,etc.? We're up really early so breakfast is usually around 7.00am till 7.15am..Our lunch mostly falls in between 11.15am/12.30, and dinner depending if its a QS around 7.00/8.00pm or if its an ADR then 8.00/9.00pm.As you can see iam a sad individual when it comes to planning our WDW vacation.I take everything into account.Sorry I can't help it,I was made this way.So do you have a rough schedule on your times of eating when at WDW?

 

[sgtmgd]

It varies for us...no pre set schedule..at least until I make my ADR's 6 months out and then I know exactly when Im going to eat..we like to eat a sit down meal for dinner...so all other meals are backward planned from there.

 

[wiigirl]

It varies for us too. We have no set schedule, but try to plan after a certain ride or something we do lunch/dinner. Snacks whenever we feel like it.

We tend to eat later in the World than we would at home. Breakfast no earlier than 8:30ish, lunch around 1, dinner after 8 most days.

 

[zurgandfriend]

We usually eat dinner in the 6pm-7pm time frame when at WDW. If we have a "sit-down" breakfast we skip lunch, if we grab and go for breakfast we eat lunch in the 11:30-12:00 time frame.

 

[BamaDisneyFan]

We eat lunch around 1200-100, and our dinners 530-630. If the ADR's work to our advantage. My date to make reservations is 1/15/13. I can't wait. Happy Halloween!! Have a Bootiful Day!!!

I have been really curious about this for my trip. I really don't know the best times to make dinner ADRs and still see the night parades.

 

[jim1051]

depends if grand kids are along. dinner in the 5:30 to 7 range of they are, so they have some time after dinner before they crash.

Without them, usually 7 to 8.

No breakfast. Lunch is usually between noon and 1:30 and dinner is usually at 8:00 pm. Since we go during September, parks close somewhat early so we try to maximize park time and eat dinner late. The downside to that is we normally miss the evening parades and fireworks.

Pooh! Don't you know,breakfast is the most important meal of the day.

Breakfast is either skipped or eaten upon arrival at the given park, lunch between 11:30-12:30, dinner between 5:30-7:00. Snack times involve walking past anything that looks or smells good.

Hatter, I have to tell you, I was soooo disappointed this past September because I never felt hungry enough to fit in ALL the things on my oh-so-long list. If I had stopped for breakfast each day, lunch and any day snacks would have been out of the question. As it was, I think I only tried 2 cupcakes the whole week...and that was a stretch. I am truly jealous of all of you who are able to mark off all these must-try items from your list. I was definitely a snack fail! Better luck next year!

I only have coffee at breakfast. If I'm hungry during the morning I'll have a cake or ice cream. Lunch is around 2, usually.
I've just made our adrs for May today so I've had a fun day. Most dinners are booked for 7.30-8, with the exception of Brown Derby, I made that for 6.30 to allow plenty of time for Fantasmic.

 

[rufio]

Breakfast is never really set in stone. Sometimes we skip it altogether! Lunch is around 1pm and dinner is between 6:30 and 7:30. Cupcakes are for anytime!

 

[HouCuseChickie]

We're big fans of pre-park opening TS breakfasts...so the earlier the better. Lunch is often more like two snacks- i.e. late morning and mid afternoon. Dinner all depends on evening schedules. We usually like a TS dinner, but timing could be anything like 6 pm to be ready for MSEP or Illuminations to 4 pm if I'm trying to get to Osborne Lights first lighting. Thankfully our kids are usually very good about having a snack here or there to cover meal time variations.

 

[ajrwdwgirl]

Kind of depends on when we can can't into restaurants. Because I'm diabetic I have to try to stick to a schedule of eating meals around a certain time. We typically eat a later dinner at the parks then we would otherwise, like around 7pm but I compensate by having a mid afternoon snack (ice cream) that I normally wouldn't have at home. Unless we do a breakfast buffet our breakfast is usally a granola bar while waiting for the bus. And if we do a breakfast buffet it is usually Boma or Tusker House around 9:30-10 am on a day that has early morning hours for Animal Kingdom, then we ride rides then eat breakfast and go to another park.

I also never managed the snack list that Mr Crush Dude ( where art thou ) put down.But it was fun trying.

We try to stay on the same schedule that we have at home for meals. We typically do b-fast before heading to the parks, or if we have an ADR, it is b4 park opening. Lunch typically between 12-1 and dinner around 6:30. With younger kids, they have their schedules. We also do more snacking and small sandwiches that we bring rather than sitting down to a full meal or QS meal. Not too many ADR's or QS stops, maybe 1 per day... PB(no J, that would end up nasty) on the go works for us.
