When it comes to mornings at Walt Disney World, there are many ways to start the day. From heading directly to the parks as early as possible to sleeping in to spending the early part of the day by the pool, every guest has their own methodology for a vacation at the “Most Magical Place on Earth.” However, there seems to be one thing that almost all guests share.

We recently took to our Facebook page to ask our readers, “What’s something that you do EVERY morning when you’re in Disney World?” Of the over 400 responses we received, the vast majority of them all at least mentioned the same thing, in one form or another.
So, what do all these Disney guests have in common during their early mornings? Well, the vast majority get COFFEE!

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the vast majority of respondents said that at least part of their early morning Walt Disney World routine involved a caffeine fix.
Some said they used the provided coffee machine in their room to have a cup before heading out to rope drop their park of choice. As reader Gary explained, “Click on the coffee maker that I set up before bed and go into the app to check character meet times so I can finish planning the day.”

Others left their room and filled their refillable resort mugs at their hotel’s respective dining location.

Some don’t have coffee at their hotel at all, instead grabbing a drink from Joffery’s…

… or Starbucks when they reach their destination park.

However, other guests took a more relaxed approach to their morning jolt. For example, reader Carla, who says they, “Drink coffee and have a cupcake on my balcony- definitely not how I usually eat, but it’s Disney!”

While the majority mentioned coffee, many also shared other morning routines, including rope drop tips, foot care (always an integral part of a Disney vacation), stretching advice, and yoga recommendations.

Reader Hannah provided likely our favorite answer, however, writing, “Wake up, realize I’m not dreaming, & be thankful I’m actually in Disney, in my happy place & get ready for the day. Of course put on my particularly coordinated bound outfit, & live my best life!”
