There’s really nothing like being inside Disney’s Contemporary Resort as the Monorail whizzes past – and if you’re looking for a truly Disney dining experience, you’ll want to stop by Contempo Café while you’re staying at or hanging out inside the Contemporary. Here, you can grab a bite at this quick-service restaurant just about any time of the day and catch the Monorail as it passes by on its trips around Seven Seas Lagoon
Contempo Café Location
Contempo Café is located inside Disney’s Contemporary Resort, right on the Grand Canyon Concourse near the Monorail track and the 90-foot-tall mural by Mary Blair.
Contempo Café Menu
Open for pre-park breakfasts, midday meals, and late-night snacks, Contempo Café is both a restaurant and a grab-and-go dining spot. Here, you can choose from made-to-order entrées or prepared snacks, baked goods, and desserts. And the variety is enough to suit the tastes of pretty much anyone in your party, whether you’re working with picky kids or adults who want something satisfying.
Contempo Café serves different options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, but throughout the day snacks, baked goods, and beverages tend to stay consistent. It’s convenient if you’re looking for a quick and affordable dining option while staying at the Contemporary, and you can opt to dine onsite or head back to your room (or elsewhere).

Disney Dining Plan
You can use your credits from the Disney Dining Plan for meals and snacks at Contempo Café. Both the Disney Dining Plan and the Disney Quick-Service Dining Plan are accepted here, giving you the chance to enjoy a full meal or a snack when you visit.
If you’re grabbing a meal, it’ll cost you one quick-service meal credit per person to dine here. If you opt for a Disney Dining Plan approved snack instead, it’ll cost you one snack credit.
Advance Dining Reservations
Since Contempo Café is a quick-service restaurant, you won’t need to worry about making an advance dining reservation (ADR) ahead of your visit. You can pop by any time it’s open (which is usually before the parks open to closing time!). Reservations aren’t offered here in any form.
However, if you’re hoping to save some time, skip a wait, or make your meals a little easier, Contempo Café does offer Disney’s Mobile Order service. That means you can use the My Disney Experience app to choose an arrival time, pre-order your food, pay for it, and then have it prepared when you’re nearby and ready to dine. It’s a huge timesaver with kids who are too hangry to wait – and you won’t have to interrupt your plans for the day.
Is Contempo Café Kid-Friendly?
Thanks to the wealth of options available at Contempo Café, this is one perfectly kid-friendly place to dine. You don’t have to worry about finding meals or snacks that are kid-approved here; there are numerous options that’ll have adventurous and picky eaters covered.
Best of all, the atmosphere in Contempo Café is ideal for little ones. If your kids need entertainment, they’ll love all of the sights and sounds of this restaurant. There’s enough to watch and wait for as you dine that they won’t even need to practice their quietest, most formal table manners. And if they do wind up being, well, kids… no one will mind at this super-casual spot.
