| How To Get To California Grill From Magic Kingdom |
Option 1: Walk Like a Champion
If you're feeling adventurous (or just really want to work off that Dole Whip), you can walk to the Contemporary. It's a leisurely stroll through the beautiful World Showcase, offering a nice respite from the park's hustle and bustle. Just remember, it's Florida. You'll be sweating more than a cast member in a full-body Mickey Mouse costume.
Option 2: Ride the Monorail to Culinary Bliss
For a more glamorous (and air-conditioned) experience, hop on the monorail. It's a classic Disney ride that will whisk you away to the Contemporary in style. Just be prepared for potential crowds, especially during peak times. Trust me, nothing kills the magic faster than being squished between a family of four and a guy wearing a Donald Duck hat.

Option 3: Take a Bus, But Don't Get Busted
If you're traveling with a large group or have little ones in tow, the bus might be your best bet. It's a reliable option, but it can be slower than the other two methods. Just make sure you don't accidentally board the wrong bus and end up at EPCOT. That would be a real buzzkill.
Tips for Your Journey
- Dress code: While the Magic Kingdom is all about comfort, the California Grill has a slightly more upscale vibe. So ditch the Mickey ears and opt for something a bit more sophisticated.
