Hi, Laura!
Dining like royalty in the
Cinderella Castle is truly the "icing on the cake" for a magical Walt Disney World vacation. If only we could all dine in a Castle all the time, wouldn't that be amazing?
Each guest must pay to enjoy this location. In addition to the meal, you have interaction with the Princesses. It is a whole interactive experience, not just a plate of food. What you can do is have each member of your party order something different so you can share and try each other's delicious royal fare!
(Just for future reservations and planning, meal sharing is not permitted at any
dinner show, character meal, buffet, or any "all you care to enjoy" dining locations.)
When you book your
dining reservation for
Cinderella's Royal Table, you will need to pay with a credit card for the meal. When you arrive at your meal, you can use your
Disney dining plan credits. Let your server know, and your credits will be deducted from your account and your credit card will be refunded the total amount that you had previously paid. Remember that to dine at this location, it will require 2 Table Service dining credits per guest. If you prefer to save your Disney dining credits for other meals, you can just keep the charge on your credit card. Either way is fine.
Wishing you a magical time visiting the beautiful Cinderella Castle. Don't forget to wear your tiara!
Cathy
