The good thing about that end of DTD is that you'll have two choices for security/bag check right there. And neither one is busy most of the time. So if the DLH bag check is backed up for some reason, just walk around the corner behind the ESPN Zone building to the DTD bag check (maybe 3 minutes walk?). It's nice to have the option. If you decide to go through the DLH lobby, give yourself lots of extra time for this. The kids will be very distracted by all the decor, possible characters in the lobby, the tea cups and the Autopia car (if they catch sight of it!); and the adults will want to look at all the old photos and memorabilia.Looks like it'll be close to Cerritos & Bayless. Google maps has it right about .9 mile one-way walking, going up Walnut to Magic Way, and then to DLH driveway. That's pushing the bounds for us, but still I think worth it versus driving and parking. But I can't quite get the zoomed in google maps to line up with my memory of DTD, so I could be off.
Starbucks West (that's what it's called on the app) is right there past the EOS, before you get to the Lego Store, so you could place a mobile order before going through security and pick up as you go by before heading for the gates. (I think the bigger Starbucks is called Starbucks Downtown Disney.)
