So there was literally no one at Rix Cafe but ordering to go was estimated at 50 mins. I asked the hostess because I thought it had to be a mistake. Nope. So we went to Siestas. Yikes, we’re really striking out here!
Uggh! We don't even go to Rix anymore. My husband deemed it the worst meal we've ever had at Disney and he's not wrong. We found ourselves going down to the McDonald's down the street quite a few times when we were at CSR because there simply weren't other reasonable options.
Crap we just got back to the room. I’ll try before we check out tomorrow!
Yes. They have soda, beer and wine. Various snacks. Bread, peanut butter and jelly. That kind of stuff.
You can do carry out orders. Easy from Three Bridges. But I’m not sure what tables around the lake you are referring to.
. What’s the plan to get to MK for rope drop? Bus? Drive? Parachute? Be specific, please. I have anxiety so I have to have a complete picture of my tasks when I travel alone. Thank you!
I sent the request through them. They apparently know exactly when and how to do it and what to say. It worked out great for us. They don’t guarantee it’ll work. But from what I’ve read in the past people got what they wanted or something very close.
We were there over Presidents’ Day weekend. We took the bus to every park. Got to the stop in plenty of time to be the first in line at the Tower stop, which is the last stop at CSR. We made it on the first bus to the parks everyday. We were always at the gates before the car travelers. There really is no official rope drop. There’s the posted park opening time. And then there’s the random time they actually open. You can’t really predict it. It’s always earlier than the official time. Our experience was between 30-60 minutes depending on the park.Hey people!
I’ve never stayed at the swan or dolphin so I have no perspective on that. But the rooms in the Tower are very nice. The whole Tower is very nice. Definitely does NOT feel like a moderate hotel. Much more upscale. The rooms are bigger than the typical moderate room. Some people have mentioned their room in the Tower wasn’t very sound proof and they heard their neighbors. We didn’t experience that at all. We didn’t have an adjoining room though so that could have been their problem. Food choices at CSR are limited though. But the days we spent at the resort were at the pool and Siestas was good. We had one breakfast at Rix and it definitely wasn’t worth it. We actually cancelled our breakfast for Rix on our check out day.
We actually cancelled our ADR at Rix for our check out day. I wanted to have a good breakfast before we flew. But we had breakfast there on an earlier day and it was so disappointing, especially for the price, I didn’t want to waste our time eating there again.Hello! I’m apparently a Disney junkie right now. I’m taking Celery (5) to WDW on Spring break. Usually, we have a nice breakfast the morning we head home. It takes my mind off the stress of flying. Is it worth booking an ADR for breakfast at Rix or would I do better to just go get coffee and a pastry somewhere?
Thank you so much for sharing. I think I’ll work out something else. We have a car so I could drive to see Mickey at the Contemporary. TBH you guys are making me wish they had a room at the Contemporary.
To be clear, we only ate breakfast Rix, not any other meals. We weren’t impressed, but it wasn’t terrible. Just “meh” and not worth what we paid IMO. Even with the limited food choices we loved our stay at CSR. We don’t depend on all of our meals at the resort anyway.Thank you so much for sharing. I think I’ll work out something else.

I wouldn’t say Rix was horrible. It’s “okay”. I just wouldn’t go out of my way to eat there again. Three Bridges was pretty good though. And a nice atmosphere.
I agree. We've eaten there twice, both times for lunch (one in the restaurant, one takeout). CMs were great, but the food was just average in our opinion.
