Well, it’s finally here. The Thanksgiving holiday weekend has arrived in Disney World, and you know what that means.
It’s beginning to look a lot like crowds in Disney World
It means things are getting SUPER busy in the parks. We’ve already seen some park pass reservations completely gone for the weekend. We’ve seen record-high prices for Genie+. But there’s another thing you may NOT be thinking of that you need to consider this weekend: when to order food via Mobile Order.
Mobile Order is now available at a majority of Disney World restaurants, and it’s generally a good way to save a lot of time standing in line for food. However, when things get busy in Disney World, Mobile Order could present a big problem. You might find yourself waiting a long time for food. Let us show you what we mean.
Mobile Order reminder
Depending on where you plan on eating, you could have a wait of over 100 minutes. We saw this recently when we checked Mobile Order around lunchtime. We checked out the Mobile Order process at Woody’s Lunch Box in Disney’s Hollywood Studios around lunchtime and noticed that the wait was estimated at 76-106 minutes. 106 minutes! That’s a long time to wait for Totchos.

So what can you do to avoid such a long wait? Well, the best thing you should do is think ahead! Know where you want to Mobile Order much earlier in the day and get that order in — remember, you can set a later pick-up time so that you can pick your food up when you’re ready to eat. It does require some commitment to eating at a specific place but trust us — this will save you a LOT of time later.

This will be the case at a LOT of counter service restaurants in Disney World during the busy holiday season, so figure out those dining options BEFORE lunch or dinner. Seriously, you can thank us later.
