Hi Emily! Welcome to planDisney!
I think we are all excited for the
Dining Plans to return to the Walt Disney World Resort! Having most of your meals already accounted for before arriving for your stay truly creates an all-inclusive experience. For my family, it's great knowing that if we come across a snack while exploring the parks we don't have to think twice about the purchase.
You'll be happy to know that
Gaston's Tavern serves snacks and beverages. The snack menu currently consists of three different items, including the iconic Warm Cinnamon Roll. Keep in mind that not all snacks at Walt Disney World are included when purchasing the Dining Plans. There will be a special designation (icon) on the menu that shows if it is eligible to be chosen. I would expect this to be made clear when the Dining Plans are introduced again in the new year.
Previously, Gaston's Tavern did have items that qualified as a snack. This was the case when the Dining Plans were around a few years back. While I'm hoping this is true when they make their return, it's also quite possible that we see many changes. I would stay glued to the
Disney Parks Blog for any announcements and check back to the Walt Disney World website for any updated information.
Emily, I hope you have a magical time during your upcoming stay! Before you know it, you'll be arriving for an unforgettable Disney vacation!
Stop back and see us again at planDisney!
See ya real soon!
Greg
