Disney Springs on a Friday afternoon?

Just trying to create a rough itinerary for our August 2022 visit.
We're considering a trip to DS on Friday afternoon, probably arriving about 3pm, eating an early dinner (2 kids - 10 & 5) and then heading back to the hotel about 6pm (early start the following morning). From others experience do you think it would be too busy on a Friday afternoon/early evening? Should we avoid DS on a Friday?
Thanks.

I think you would be ok going that early. Will definitely be much busier later or on Sun/Sat.

DS during the day and even early evening is fine. It just gets busy as you get into the evening. Depends what you are wanting to do of course, but arriving early eve is worth thinking about as there is a lovely atmosphere with lots going on. We quite like going there early evening and spending a couple of hours just having a drink and enjoying the different music dotted around DS.

On my trips pre-COVID I always recall DS being fairly pleasant to walk through and not too crowded if I went in the afternoon - it tended to get really busy around dinner time! So 3-6pm on a Friday should be OK I would guess...

At that time should be fine. Have you thought of somewhere to eat. Some obvious places for kids but if your looking something quick and good value have a look at blaze pizza

Thanks, I thought that would be the case over a weekend. We'll be heading back for a later evening another day but will go mid week.

Thanks. We've ben early evening before and I agree, it's a lovely atmosphere.
We're planning on spending a later evening there another night but we'll go mid week to avoid it being too busy.

Thanks. I can imagine it gets busy once everyone wants to eat.
