Here's Why It Might Take LONGER To Get Food At Disneyland

Mobile Order can often be convenient, but with several restaurants at Disney Parks using it, it can also create a host of problems, as we’ve seen at Disney World.

And we’re starting to see some issues at Disneyland Resort, too, which recently reopened. If you thought waiting 30-45 minutes at for a meal at Disney World was bad, just wait until you hear how long guests waited for their Mobile Order at Disneyland today!

Today, we decided to Mobile Order some food from Cocina Cucamonga Mexican Grill, so that’s what we did! And once we arrived, we clicked on the “We are here, Prepare Our Food” option on the app. And then we waited…and waited…and waited…for AN HOUR. We noticed it wasn’t just us. There were TONS of people standing around waiting for their orders.

The line waiting for food was backed up onto the bridge leading to Pixar Pier!

This also created problems with table availability — guests were at tables longer because the process of getting food took SO long. There are only certain areas designated for eating, too. We DID eventually get our food, but it took a while.

As we typically say, we’d recommend eating at hours that aren’t popular lunch and dinner times if you’re using Mobile Order — those wait times for food will usually be lower. We’ll keep covering how Mobile Order is working at Disneyland and let you know about any other long waits, too!
