How to read this.
Waits are the walk-up waitlist times Disney's app posted for Carthay Circle Restaurant (October 14, 2026 to November 5, 2026), averaged per day and hour in park time.
They only count when the walk-up list was open, so a short average can still mean the list was often closed; "List open" is the share of the app's checks in that hour with the list open.
Hours with fewer than 5 days of data are left out. Mobile Order times are not walk-up waits and are not included.
The Walk-Up List Here Is Often Closed
