Happy New Year, Bonnie, and welcome to the wonderful world of the Disney Parks Moms Panel! Your trip to Walt Disney World Resort is coming up in just a few weeks, so it's a great time to be thinking about all the delicious food you're going to eat while you're there.
My very first tip for making dining reservations for a large group is exactly that: make some reservations as soon as you can, up to 180 days before your arrival date if you're staying at a Walt Disney World Resport Hotel. You can browse restaurants and available dining times and book your dining reservations easily using the
My Disney Experience app.
Now let's talk about food! For a large, multigenerational group like yours, I would recommend booking a reservation at a family-style restaurant as well as a buffet. Both of these dining experiences offer a wide variety of food choices which are great for kids and picky eaters alike. We love family-style dining at
'Ohana at
Disney's Polynesian Village Resort because it's a really social way for our family to enjoy some quality time together, and the view of
Magic Kingdom is spectacular. Buffets offer a chance for everyone to get something they like, and we love
Boma - Flavors of Africa at
Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge for its one-of-a-kind breakfast, Mickey Mouse-shaped waffles included!
Have a magical day, Bonnie.
