Hi Lauren! Thanks for stopping by planDisney!
Oh boy! I'm excited to hear you're planning on utilizing the
Disney Dining Plan on your upcoming visit. My favorite aspect of the dining plan is having all of my meals accounted for before arriving on site. This allows for a carefree trip and gives you the chance to focus on the fun experiences you are bound to have.
There are over 200 unique dining locations that are available using one of the Disney Dining Plans. Between Quick-Service, Table-Service, Character Dining, and Fine Dining locations, you will have a host of options to choose from. The easiest way to search which dining locations only require 1 Table-Service Meal,
visit the "All Dining" page located on the drop-down menu under "Things To Do." Once here, use the filter option to the right of your screen and select "2025 Disney Dining Plan." All the restaurants participating in the dining plan will be populated below. To check if a restaurant requires 1 or 2 Table-Service Meals, select the dining location, tap on "View Dining Plans and Discounts", and then "Dining Plans." Once selected, it will state how many meals are required for this location. You can continue to check each location you are interested in dining at.
Since you are just about a month away from your arrival, now is the perfect time to start making
Advanced Dining Reservations for your stay. All you'll need to do is log into your My Disney Experience Account and select "Make Reservations" from the drop-down menu titled "Things To Do." Once here, you can search for dates and times for restaurants all across the Walt Disney World Resort.
Lauren, I hope you have a magical time during your visit! Don't forget to use the snack credit you are allowed each night of your stay using the Disney Dining Plan. When viewing a menu, look for the Disney Dining Plan logo to make sure the item qualifies.
See ya real soon!
