Hello again, Edward! Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
I absolutely love the Disney Dining Plan! Knowing that our food is paid for in advance makes budgeting for our trip so much easier. And all of that delicious food that is included on the plan ... well, it has me drooling just thinking about it!
In my opinion, the middle meal package known as the
Disney Dining Plan is plenty of food! I think you will be surprised by the options you have for snacks. Even when my husband and I have gone all out and used the
Disney Deluxe Dining Plan, we still use snacks for breakfast and save our Table-Service meal entitlements for experiences that require two entitlements per person. Most Disney Resort hotels offer items like fruit, yogurt parfaits, muffins, and other pastries as a snack entitlement. There are also some locations like Gaston's Tavern in Magic Kingdom Park where you can get a HUGE cinnamon roll for a snack entitlement.
Locations serving Starbucks (there is one in each theme park) offer some delicious breakfast options, as well. If you find yourself wanting more, you can always pay out of pocket for a breakfast meal, but I bet you will be happy with what is available for a snack!
For your Table-Service meal entitlements, make sure that you have
reservations at Table-Service restaurants. This will help you get the most value out of your dining plan. There are some really yummy options to choose from!
I hope this helps ease your mind about your dining plan, Edward! Please let me know if you have any other questions.
