Hi Mary!
With all the hype surrounding Disney's new live-action Beauty and the Beast film,
Be Our Guest Restaurant is a hot ticket right now! The atmosphere of the restaurant truly makes guests feel immersed in the story of Belle and Beast - right down to the snow falling outside the castle windows!
It's true that Beast only greets his guests during the dinner hours, but don't let that stop you from visiting his lovely home for lunch. The food is delicious, but don't ask me - ask the dishes! When you dine at breakfast or lunch, you'll get to choose where you want to sit. The restaurant has three rooms: The Grand Ballroom, The Castle Gallery, and The West Wing. The ballroom is the largest room in the castle. Moms Panel Tip: If you look up at the mural on the ceiling, you'll see paintings of cherubs. The cherubs have faces of Disney Imagineers' babies, faces of the Imagineers when
they were babies, and a few have adult Imagineer faces on baby bodies. See if you can spot them! When dining in the West Wing, keep your eyes on the portrait on the wall - when lightning strikes, you may see it change!
We unfortunately don't have any information about the awesome Enchanted Rose Cups that were being offered at Be Our Guest. The cups, that resemble the enchanted rose in a glass case, have been super popular with guests in recent days. I hope that the cups will be something they continue to sell in the future - so cute!
If you'd like to try and dine with the Master in his castle for dinner but are having trouble securing reservations, make sure to keep checking for openings. Up until 24 hours before, guests are still finalizing their dining plans, and you can sometimes get lucky if there's a cancellation!
I hope this helps answer your question, and assists you with your planning. Have a magical day! - Diane W.
