It's great to see you here today at the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Ashley!
I love using the
Disney Dining Plan, and my family chooses to use it almost every time we go on vacation. We really like the ease and convenience of having all of our meals taken care of in advance and only having to look at the menu, choose what we want, and tap our
MagicBands to enjoy a delicious meal.
If you're having a busy day and you'd rather have an extra Quick-Service meal instead of sitting down at a Table-Service restaurant, you are welcome to do that but it's a one-for-one exchange. That means that when you use a Table-Service credit at a Quick-Service dining location you get the same things you get if you were redeeming a Quick-Service credit, which is one entrée as well as a beverage. It's not the best way to get the most value out of your Disney Dining Plan credits, but if saving extra time is your top priority you are certainly able to use a Table-Service credit in that way!
Since we're talking Quick-Service, I can't let you go without letting you know about some of my favorite dining locations around Walt Disney World Resort.
Be Our Guest Restaurant at
Magic Kingdom Park is a Quick-Service location at both breakfast and lunch, and that would be a great way to use one of those extra credits. I also love
Flame Tree Barbecue at
Disney's Animal Kingdom, where the Ribs, Chicken, and Pulled Pork platter is more than enough for two people to share.
I hope this answers your question, Ashley, and please let us know if there's anything else we can do to help you plan your magical vacation.
