Hi Susan!
Welcome back to planDisney. Let the countdown begin! You are only a month away until you arrive for a magical
Walt Disney World holiday! Let's jump right into your question and help you get set for a memorable stay!
You'll be happy to know that you can use Disney Gift Cards at select dining locations at Disney Springs. While many of these restaurants are not owned and operated by Disney, they still do allow Disney Gift Cards as payment options. One of my favorite places to dine,
The BOATHOUSE, is one location that does. Between the ambiance and delicious food, this has always been a go-to during any trip I take.
While I do not have a definitive list of restaurants that accept this form of payment, you can always call the specific location you plan to eat at to confirm this information. There is a chance that certain restaurants have changed their policies over the years, adding or removing this form of payment as an option.
A recent addition to
Disney Springs that I've found to be a fantastic option is
Summer House on the Lake. My family has dined here a few times now, and each meal gets better every time. There are plenty of delicious options for Guests of all ages, including a wide variety for our kids. I highly recommend carving out some time to visit!
Susan, I hope this information helps you plan for your stay!
Stop back and see us again at planDisney!
