Hi Angela! Dining with the princesses at
Cinderella's Royal Table in the Castle is one
of the most coveted reservations at Walt Disney World, and it can book up quickly. If the restaurant is already booked up during your vacation, the key to getting a table is to
be flexible and persistent! The princesses appear at breakfast, lunch, and
dinner, so if breakfast is unavailable, consider trying one of the other meals. Check for availability for each day
of your trip. Instead of checking for certain times, use the
online reservation tool to check for "breakfast," which will search for all times for that meal. Check for varying party sizes -- consider a "girls only" meal if
you can't reserve a table for your entire family. If no reservations are
available, keep checking each day, even while you are at Disney. Because Cinderella's Royal Table requires a credit card guarantee and has a 24-hour cancellation policy, tables
do open up at the last minute.
If you're unable to reserve a meal in the Castle, consider the princess
meals at
Akershus or
1900 Park Fare, which may have availability when the Castle
is booked.
Hope your little princess is able to dine with royalty on your vacation! Come visit us again at the Moms Panel if you have more questions! We're happy to help!
