2 hours parking Narcooses?

[robertgreen99]

Do you only get 2 hours free parking for Narcooses for offsite guests?

I am just worried i might be longer than 2 hours for my dinner at Narcooses.

My understanding is 3 hours for an adr - and they will not be watching the clock either - they just don't want people using the parking and then going to the parks. If you have an adr - don't worry take your time and enjoy your meal.

I believe the accepted norm is 3 hours however when we ate there in February we arrived at around 6 pm for a 7.20 reservation. We watched Wishes from our window table. Wishes was at 9 pm. We finished our dessert after that so I guess it was nearer 10 pm when we drove out.

We arrived early as I wanted to go ahead and ask for a nice table as it was our Golden Wedding anniversary.

This was a special one-off occasion and I have never exploited parking at any resort to avoid paying the park $20 charge

I understood it to be three hours parking at the monorail resorts for dining reservations too, but we were told we had two hours parking at the Poly for our 'Ohana breakfast last Friday. He wasn't very friendly about it either, despite the fact we were staying at the BW and had a parking pass, so wouldn't have been paying to park at MK anyway.

We ended up staying just over two hours in the end with the breakfast and a look in the shops. As someone said, there's no one policing this.

I understand Disney don't want people parking at the resorts to use the parks as they lose out on the theme park parking revenues but this definitely goes on so they're not doing a great job of stopping it. We stayed at the Boardwalk this trip and heard a couple of parties talking who were going to Epcot but told the hotel parking guy they were going to use a restaurant at the Boardwalk. They had signs up all week saying parking was restricted to hotel guests and those with dining reservations even though the hotel car park was half empty all week.

We were turned away a couple of years ago at BW hotel parking when we wanted to mooch around the Boardwalk so in my experience Disney's position on this can vary greatly.
