Hi Emily and welcome to planDisney.
Thanks for stopping by today with your great question about one of my favourite subjects - Disney Dining! There are so many amazing restaurants to choose from when visiting
Walt Disney World - as our friend Winnie the Pooh would say, I'm getting all "rumbly in my tumbly" just thinking about them all.
Whilst my family do have our favourite places to eat, we also always make a point of trying a few new restaurants each and every time that we visit.
I am very pleased to tell you, Emily, that yes, if you are a Guest staying at Disney's Contemporary Resort or Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort, you can absolutely use your
Disney Dining Plan entitlements to order meals from
Steakhouse 71 To Go.
In order to do so, you will need to click on the "≡" (hamburger) symbol in the bottom right hand corner of the
My Disney Experience App home page and select "Order Food." If you then click on "Filters," you will be able to select Disney's Contemporary Resort and then "Steakhouse 71 To Go." Click on "Begin Order," select your meals, click on "View My Order" followed by "Review Order Summary," being sure to click on "Use a Different Payment Method" and select Disney Dining Plan, on the Order Summary page.
I cannot say enough good things about
Mobile Food and Beverage Ordering. It's a great way to plan ahead and also saves time waiting in line for food which is always a bonus, especially when you've got hangry little ones, (or big ones,) in tow.
I hope that this has answered your question, Emily. Please feel free to re-visit us, here at planDisney, if we can be of any further help with the planning of your trip.
Wishing you a magical holiday filled with memories which will last a lifetime!
Emma
