Hiya, Rachel!
Welcome back to planDisney, friend! I am delighted that you stopped by with another wonderful planning question.
Dining at Walt Disney World Resort is one of my favorite topics. Let's go over beverage options and what is and is not included when you dine at some of your favorite spots.
Some table-service dining locations will include a beverage. These traditionally tend to be locations that are
buffets, family-style, or dinner shows. You can check to see if there is a charge for a soft drink by checking the menu of your favorite locations. Dining spots that are a prix fixe menu or buffet that have a soft drink included will not have a cost located next to this option on the menu. If the soft drink is an additional charge the price will be listed. I also suggest confirming any additional cost for beverages with a Cast Member when you arrive at the location. Beverages at
quick-service dining locations and all other table service locations are al carte, and you can find pricing for sodas on the menus of each location.
And while we are on the topic of quick service dining, I want to add a quick note about
Mobile Food & Beverage ordering at The Most Magical Place on Earth. This is a great way to save a little time during your visit. You can place a mobile order through the
My Disney Experience app, and it will be freshly prepared when you arrive. Simply tap the
+ at the bottom of the screen, and select
Order Food. Choose the location your Ohana would like to order from that day and the time window that works best for you. Place your order and head off for a day of fun. When your order window arrives, head to the restaurant and select
I'm Here, Prepare My Order. No need to wait in line for lunch! Pro tip: If you know the timeframe and location your crew would like to dine at that day, place your order early. This will ensure your desired dining time has availability.
I hope your upcoming adventure is memorable and magical!
We'll see ya real soon!
