Hey there, hi there, ho there Teresa and welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel.
Disney Dining Plans are convenient for everyone and provide access to the most delicious meals Mickey and the gang prepare. Dining plans can be simple from the Disney Quick-Service Dining Plan to the Disney Deluxe Dining Plan where you can get an appetizer, entreé, dessert and non-alcoholic beverage (Guests 21 and over may order an alcoholic beverage). There are meal options for everyone. The official source for Dining Plan participation and allotments if found on each restaurant webpage. Find your desired
dining experience and look to the right of the picture. Inside the light blue box, you will see the location, cuisine type, approximate price range for meals, information about dining plans, and View Menu. Click on the "Some Dining Plans Accepted" to reveal which plans are options and how many credits are needed per person. You may also google "touring plans Disney dining plan restaurants" to see a list of websites that may provide unofficial comprehensive lists.
Disney Dad Tip: Many Walt Disney World Resort dining experiences take reservations 180 days in advance. To get the times you want, be sure to book as soon as possible online or by calling 407-WDW-DINE (407-939-3463). My favorite is
Character Dining Experiences where I get an autograph and a photo with my favorite Disney friends.
Teresa, enjoy making many delicious and Magical Memories.
