True. I know. This was before 6 year olds had smart phones. Just stating a value to those places that isn't the most obvious.
We did witness a mother once hand her 3 kids $100, her cell phone, then very sternly instructed them not to return to the room until she called them. Funniest thing ever because we knew why.

Kind of curious to see if they'll also remove the kiosks from Contempo Cafe. While I personally don't mind them and have never had an issue, they do seem redundant and speaking from a food service background, don't seem to improve speed or efficiency to the process.Good riddance to those touch screen ordering machines I say. They clashed horribly and were often glitchy whenever I visisited.
It may have been more so they don't have to pay as many employees, not so much about making the ordering process more speedy and efficient. Taking away employee jobs has been an argument point against self checkouts at grocery stores for instance. That criticism comes up whenever automation takes away from human labor. I don't know if that's the case with the Disney self order kiosks though.

They don’t really replace humans at Contempo. though.There are still people that hand you your order, and people that ring you up. They could take the screens out, have you put in your order/pay first, then pick up food in the same way. I think the screens are more efficient, but they don't really save on labor (unless you could pay at them, which would be neat.)
Looks better than Club 33.Good riddance to those touch screen ordering machines I say. They clashed horribly and were often glitchy whenever I visited.
I really like the new framed destination pictures on the walls in the seating area (they're classy and have a retro vibe to them), and the new hanging ceiling light fixtures are pretty nice as well. The chairs i'm not as bit of a fan of. The new bamboo design isn't terrible in of itself (they may even be more comfortable than the old ones), but the old chairs had a more elaborate leaf design that I liked a lot (much less generic). The new upholster on the booths is very generic, as are the bland new tabletop designs compared to the old ones. I'm also not a fan of the new flooring either.
Here's a picture of the seating area pre-refurb for comparison to Steve's pics in the link above-
