We have four adults in our party, but one of them doesn't eat except for a minimal amount. Can that person still go in to reserved dining without eating/paying or do they still have to pay? Thank you!

Question

Answer 1

Hi Leslie, and welcome back to planDisney!

Congratulations on your upcoming visit to Walt Disney World Resort! I am here for an adult-only getaway, especially now that my children are older.

As long as everyone is on the reservation, everyone can enter the restaurant and be seated, even if someone in your party will not eat. Sometimes, it is just about being present, so I get it. I have had occasions where someone in my party did not find anything on the menu they cared for, or maybe just did not want to eat, and everyone was allowed to be seated. I do recommend not reserving any dining experiences that require payment upfront to avoid any confusion. I hope this helps.

Please return should you have additional questions; we would love to continue to help you plan for your upcoming visit.

Have a magical time!
