Hello Vickie!
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! I am glad to hear you are planning a visit with your 4-year-old grandson. I am thrilled for the wonderful memories you will make together.
I think it is amazing that you have added a
Disney Dining Plan to your Magic Your Way Vacation Package. It will make your visit very convenient and knowing all your meals are paid for will make you feel great. Vickie, you can use your dining plan entitlements in any order during your visit, which means that if you don’t use them on one day, you will be able to use them on the next day. Please note that all unused credits expire at midnight on the date of check-out.
I have a 7-year-old daughter so the Disney Dining Plan is amazing for us when we are planning character dining, buffet and family-style meals. Our favorite Table-Service locations at Magic Kingdom Park are Be Our Guest Restaurant, The Crystal Palace and Liberty Tree Tavern. At Epcot we enjoy Teppan Edo, Biergarten Restaurant, Akershus Royal Banquet Hall and Garden Grill Restaurant, and at Disney’s Hollywood Studios I am sure you will enjoy 50’s Prime Time Café and Hollywood & Vine. I highly recommend Tusker House Restaurant, Rainforest Café, and Yak & Yeti Restaurant at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
The Quick-Service locations that I suggest are Columbia Harbour House at Magic Kingdom, Satu’li Canteen at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, ABC Commissary at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and La Cantina de San Angel, Sunshine Seasons, Yorkshire County Fish Shop, and Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie at Epcot.
At Disney Resort hotels I recommend 'Ohana and Chef Mickey's!
Thank you for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel! I hope this helps you plan magical dining experiences for you and your grandson.
Best magical wishes,
Thiana
