Bonjour Monsieur Scott,
“It is with deepest pride and greatest pleasure” that I welcome you to planDisney!
Be Our Guest has such a special place in my heart because it was the first table service location my Prince Charming and I enjoyed together. I still remember saving up for months since we were both graduate students so we could enjoy the splurge meal. At that time, the meet and greet in the study with the Beast was still being offered, but that has not been the case over the last few years. When I spoke to a Cast Member, they shared that the Beast would still be periodically walking through the dining room and greeting Guests from afar but would not host a photo opportunity in the study.
I wish I had better news to share, Scott, but I’ll keep an eye out just in case anything changes regarding Be Our Guest. Before I let you go, when you are in
Magic Kingdom, don’t forget to check out
Gaston’s Tavern during your visit. He’s no Beast, but the Crème Brulee Croissant is incredible and a must-add to any snack list. I grabbed one for breakfast during my last trip, and it was a new family fav. Let me know if you have any additional questions or would like dining recommendations as you prepare for your next trip.
Happy Planning,
Ashley F.
