Disney World walk-up list: how mobile dining availability works
At participating Walt Disney World restaurants, use My Disney Experience to check mobile walk-up availability and add your party when a list is open. Disney requires the latest app on iOS or Android with location services enabled. Follow the notification when your table is ready.
How do you join a Disney dining walk-up list?
Disney describes checking participating restaurants in the app or through a lobby QR code. When available, add your party and confirm its details, including dietary requests. The app then notifies you where to go when a table is ready.
How is it different from a reservation alert?
A walk-up list is useful while planning a meal during your visit. A cancellation alert is a prompt to try for an advance reservation. Decide which situation you are solving before spending time on the wrong screen.
| Your situation | Where to start |
|---|---|
| Planning a meal for a future trip | Search the official advance reservation calendar. |
| Waiting for a future date to open | Check the 60-day booking-window rules. |
| Looking for a meal during your visit | Check current mobile walk-up availability. |
| A notification says the table is ready | Follow the location and arrival instructions shown. |
Prepare your phone and your group
Before a meal search, check that your phone has enough battery and a working data connection. Keep the people in your party informed so you are not trying to gather everyone from different activities after a table becomes ready.
Pick restaurants your group would actually enjoy. Review the meal type and expected commitment first: a quick meal break and a longer dining experience solve different needs in a busy park day.
When the table-ready message arrives
Read the actual instructions and confirm that your whole party can respond. Keep that message easy to find rather than relying on a remembered estimate. If you hold another reservation, check its conditions and deal with it through the official cancellation route.
For future dates, return to the advance-booking plan. Slother is independent of Disney and has not announced Disney dining support; this mobile walk-up feature is provided through My Disney Experience.
