Hey, howdy, hey, Denise! Thanks for coming back to me with another character dining question - with my own vacation coming up around the same time as yours, it's been fantastic discussing dining options with you as I plan for my reservation window too! Maybe we'll bump into each other in the parks!
Topolino's Terrace - Flavors of the Riviera and
Storybook Dining at Artist Point are two of the newer character dining experiences offered at the Walt Disney World Resort, and I think each one offers a unique experience that makes it an excellent choice for a meal!
Storybook Dining at Artist Point is located inside
Disney's Wilderness Lodge and features dinner with Snow White, Dopey, Grumpy, and the Evil Queen. The three-course meal starts with shared appetizers, a choice of an entree, and a dessert trio from a
prix fixe menu. While I have not personally experienced this character meal, it is on my to-do list and I'm hoping for a July reservation here this year, too! I've heard that the Evil Queen's meet and greet is the perfect combination of spooky and spectacular and Dopey has always been my favorite dwarf! The opportunity to meet these unique characters and the storybook forest setting inside Wilderness Lodge makes this a great choice for dinner!
Topolino's Terrace offers a
character breakfast with reservations available until about noon each day, so you could also consider this as an option for brunch or even early lunch! Since you've mentioned dining here before, I'm sure you know the rooftop views and access to the Disney Skyliner from
Disney's Riviera Resort make this location ideal for grabbing a meal on a day when you visit EPCOT or Disney's Hollywood Studios. Since you're staying at Disney's Beach Club for this trip, it would also be a convenient location for you to visit from your resort on a day you won't be visiting any of the parks!
With so many great choices for meals, be sure to take a look at the
Disney Dining Plan, which bundles your pre-paid meals and snacks into your vacation package! My panliest pal
Jennifer is a dining plan expert and has traveled and used the plan since its return this year; I'll be using it myself this summer and am excited to know the bill has already been paid!
Denise, I hope this is helpful and I hope you get all of the dining reservations your heart is dreaming of when your reservation window opens! Don't forget as a Guest at at Disney Resort hotel, you can make all of your reservations 60 days in advance of your check-in day for up to 10 days!
As always, come back to planDisney anytime if you have any other questions! We're all ears!
See you real soon,
Alison
