Breakfast Hours

[CaptainAmerica]

Vis-a-vis coffee, they usually set up the mug refill station an hour or so before the QS actually opens so that's an option for early risers.

Yeah, I am always a little more suspicious of coffee makers after learning from a friend who traveled a lot that some people find it perfectly normal to clean underwear and socks with the pots and hot water.
And if it's a kureig I am not a fan

I’m glad I have never heard of that

I actually prefer the pods over a pot. I know that’s what Music had the last time I was there. Prepping and cleaning a coffee pot is too much work on vacay

And some of the refill stations are open 24/7.

Food courts used to be open at 6 pre pandemic but afterwards it’s usually 7. I was just looking around and All Stars is 630am but most others are still at 7am.
I used to go right at 6am say like at Pop for just refill cup of coffee and a danish or something.

Every half hour , hour, hours that places open later, close earlier is labor and operational savings for the Mouse. The bean counters with the help of leadership advise how much the operations can save $$ on a regular basis.

In regards to refill, the complimentary Club Cool at Epcot now only has (1) selection of soda available for tasting. Previous there were several selections available. Every little cut saves the company more money.

@Club Cooloholic I'm at Vero Beach and nothing opened until 8:00.

That stinks. Love Vero, have they brought back the character breakfast or the Pirate BBQ dinner?

Never seemed to be a problem when the food courts did open at 6am.

There were MANY things that weren’t a problem Pre-Covid.

@Lilofan do you remember the kiosk at Epcot where you could sample different soft drinks from all over the world? I think it may have been sponsored by Coca-Cola.

You're talking about the same thing, that is Club Cool. With regards to there only being one selection available at the moment, I doubt that cuts have led to Beverly being the only option unless someone at WDW is really sadistic.

It still is only one option at Club Cool.

It still is only one option at Club Cool.

I was there in November and all the usual suspects were available, including Beverly. Coca Cola supplies Club Cool and all the beverage stations, not Disney.

For the relatively small number of guests who use early hours it probably isn’t worth their while. Those people will grab cereal bars and head off.

I was under the assumption that if early entry was available it was used by everyone. Is there a significant number that dont bother?

If I were staying at AKL and was up early I wouldn't be going to the parks. That resort is a terrific experience to wander and early you get it to yourself. Go see fireworks or something later

My guess is 20% of guests use it, maximum.

30k hotel rooms., let’s just use 2 people per room. 20% would mean 3k at each park. How many people show up at each park for early entry? I have no idea.

Just got back from Universal Hollywood, where they charge $25 for an hour early entrance. It sells out, only way to see Mario some days

 

[JIMINYCR]

I’m always up early and would love having an earlier breakfast. Most times I just head for the park and grab something there or just skip it. I hate having to manage the breakfast crowded food courts with the screaming kids.

 

[Eric Graham]

We usually just grab something fast at Starbucks, when we eat breakfast. Usually, I just fast.

My family doesn't normally eat much breakfast until 8-9am between at work or school. Past visits we still wouldn't be hungry till then either. We're more a big dinner family with eating habits.

We totally don’t use it! We fly in from the west coast (and I now fly in from Hawaii) so that’s a 3-6 hr time zone difference for my mm and me. We now splurge for the deluxe resorts so we can do the EEH and stay in the parks later. It was one thing to do early entry when our boys were babies and toddlers and up anyway (and we were used to being sleep deprived) but the west coast/Hawaii time zones, coupled with all-day touring for 7-10 days, is too exhausting for us.
