Dear Narelle,
Thanks for reaching out to us here at the Disney Parks Moms Panel again with your question about planning your family's meals at
Be Our Guest Restaurant at the
Magic Kingdom.
The good news is that the Walt Disney World Resort is probably the best place to vacation for someone who has specific likes and dislikes when it comes to dining! Your son can absolutely order an adult portion of a kids' meal at most any restaurant. My kids have ordered things with modifications or subtractions many times, and the chefs are very accommodating. They will definitely let you know if they can't do something, but if it's something that's already on the menu, that shouldn't be a problem at all. Of course, the charge for that menu item would be more than it would be on the kids' menu, but any time that I've done this with my kids, it has been a very reasonable cost.
Moms Panel tip - Did you know that you can make
Advanced Dining Reservations up to 180 days in advance of your check-in date? Reservations are highly recommended for many restaurants, such as Be Our Guest.
Hope that helps you with your magical planning!
- Jan K.
