Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel Maria ~
I love
Be Our Guest Restaurant and I can't answer a question about it without singing the song in my head. The restaurant is so beautiful inside and out and the food is amazing. I also love having my picture taken with the Beast in the Library after dinner. He is so big in person but he is quite the gentleman.
If you have reservations to dine inside any of the four theme parks, theme park admission is required and not included in the cost of your meal. Even if you are only going to a theme park solely to dine, you will need a valid theme park ticket in order to enter.
Perhaps you can switch the days you plan to visit the Magic Kingdom to coincide with the day you have reservations at Be Our Guest Restaurant. Another option is adding the park hopper option to your tickets. You can also keep checking online and on the
My Disney Experience mobile app every few days to see if a reservation opens up for the day you have already planned to go to the Magic Kingdom. If you haven't had success prior to leaving for your visit, keep checking even once you arrive at the Walt Disney World Resort. Guests will sometimes make advanced dining reservations early and once their trips get closer and they start firming up their plans, they may cancel some of their dining reservations which will free up times for other Guests.
Please feel free to visit us again with all of your planning questions. We are hEAR for you!
Wishing you minnie magical memories :-) Allison V.
