Hi there, Samantha! Thanks so much for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
Samantha, I absolutely love taking advantage of the
Disney Dining Plan. My favorite thing about the Disney Dining Plan that it offers four different tiers so that I can always customize my plan to fit my budget and vacation style.
You are correct that your quick-service dining entitlement will include a beverage. This can be any beverage that the
location offers, with exceptions for things like drinks in souvenir mugs. At most locations, you will be able to receive a bottle of water with your meal, as opposed to a fountain beverage, however, in my experience, most quick-service locations that serve fountain soft drinks do not have bottled soft drinks as an option. Samantha, did you know that you can also get a specialty beverage such as a milkshake or specialty lemonade where available? Those members of your party who are over 21 can even get an alcoholic beverage with their quick-service dining entitlement, whenever one is available.
If you are craving a refreshing bottle of diet coke, you can use your snack credits at any of the food beverage carts or snack kiosks that you will spot around throughout the resort.
I hope that this helped, Samantha. Please come back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel if we can help as you plan your magical, and delicious, vacation.
