Hello Julie,
Thanks for visiting the Disney Parks Moms Panel where we're so happy to see you and be part of the pixie dusted planning process for your June 2018 trip to Walt Disney World Resort.
Visiting the magic of Walt Disney World Resort as part of a large group, or extended family is lots of super fun - in fact I'd say the more the merrier! That's especially so when dining altogether and you'll be pleased to know that in my experience most Disney dining locations are happy to work with Guests to accommodate larger than average parties.
My 1st Table Service restaurant recommendation for larger dining groups within the Disney Theme Parks would have to be the
Biergarten Restaurant within the Germany Pavilion at Epcot. My family loves dining at the Biergarten where Guests are seated at long tables which should easily accommodate your party of 13; we also love watching the traditional German
Oompah Band perform!
Another great spot which works well for large parties is the
Rainforest Cafe at Disney's Animal Kingdom which can be found at the entrance to the Theme Park.
Outside of the Disney Theme Parks my top suggestions for communal dining are the fabulous
Dinner Shows including Mickey's Backyard BBQ, The Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue or Disney's Spirit of Aloha Dinner Show.
I'm sure where ever is finally decided upon your lucky party of 13 will enjoy a magical trip to
Walt Disney World Resort.
Have a great Disney day.
~ Jane
