Not to Be Dramatic, but this App Hack Just Changed My Life in Disney World

When Disney World opened after the COVID-19 pandemic closed its doors, specific offerings were not available upon its phased reopening.

We miss room service breakfast.

Almost five years later, a majority of things around the resort have gone back to normal. There are a few outliers in this as two out of the three Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutiques have still yet to reopen. The same can be said about certain hotel amenities, like room service, but we just found a hack that can help you get a customized type of room service at your Disney World resort!

Prior to the resort-wide closure in 2020, room service, otherwise known as in-room dining, was available to Disney World resort guests. However, when the resort reopened four months later, room service did not return to all the hotels as there were safety concerns for both guests and Cast Members. 

In-Room Dining at the Grand Floridian

Here we are, almost five years later, and the only resort offering room service is the Grand Floridian Resort. The Grand Floridian is a Deluxe Resort, but none of the other Deluxe Resorts currently offer this service. 

This can be a real bummer, especially after a long day in the parks. If you want food delivered to your room, you can actually use the app DoorDash! You can choose from an array of restaurants, giving you more variety in what food you can order. 

That’s right — lots of folks don’t realize that even when you are in the Disney World bubble, you can order from Door Dash and get delivery to your hotel. Each Disney World hotel has different ways of allowing non-resort guests into the hotel gate, so it is a good idea to call your resort’s front desk to talk to a Cast Member to find out what the best instructions to give your delivery driver are.

Sometimes, you will be asked to meet your delivery driver outside the entrance, in the lobby, or at Bell Services. The best practice might change throughout the day, so it is always a good idea to check before placing your order. For privacy purposes, we would recommend meeting your driver in a common area rather than at your room.

If you would rather order food directly from Disney, you can utilize Mobile Order in the My Disney Experience app and pick up your food to take it directly back to your room to enjoy. However, sometimes Disney World’s restaurants close earlier, so if you are looking to satisfy a late-night craving, DoorDash is a great option!

We have not heard any news about room service returning, which is shocking since this is a typical resort benefit at resorts off-property. As always, we will keep an eye out for any news about room service changes, so make sure to continue to follow along with us here at the Disney Food Blog!
