Hi Kristy! YAY! I have loved having a Walt Disney World Annual Pass for the past seven years! Welcome to the club.
One of the best perks of having an annual pass are the discounts! In recent years, the Walt Disney World cast members have been great about asking if you have a discount available when you are in a merchandise location or at a dining location that accepts discounts.
To find a complete list of dining locations where you can use your annual passholder discount,
visit this page of the official WDW website. This is a great resource because you can check a specific location box and it will only show you the restaurants in that area. At the top of the page, you can also click on one of the four main headers to see discounts in other areas as well.
Since we are talking dining, I will give you some of my recommendations where you receive an annual pass discount of 10%. To start the day with breakfast, I love
Boma - Flavors of Africa, at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge. Here you will find a wide assortment of breakfast treats, including a bread pudding that is to die for! For lunch, I suggest Jungle Navigation Co. LTD Skipper Canteen. We’ve gone here for appetizers and dessert for lunch and left with full, happy bellies. And, for a delightful dinner, try
Narcoosee’s, at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. This restaurant is a perfect end to your Magic Kingdom day, with delicious food and a view of Cinderella Castle (and possibly fireworks).
I hope your first visit as an annual passholder is magical!
Happy Traveling (& eating),
Tracy
