Dining at Walt Disney World

Dining is an exciting part of your Walt Disney World vacation! From quick grab-and-go options and delicious snacks to enchanting character meals and signature fine dining, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

Advance dining reservations are strongly recommended for table-service restaurants (sit-down restaurants with a server). Reservations can be made through your My Disney Experience account 60 days in advance, starting at 6:00 AM EST. If you don’t have a reservation, you can check walk-up availability and current wait times in the My Disney Experience app.

For a more flexible option, quick-service restaurants (counter-service locations) do not require reservations. Most also offer Mobile Order for added convenience.

Your Wish Upon a Star with Us Vacation Planner can guide you through the dining reservation process—offering personalized recommendations and helping you navigate the best options for your family.

Dining Plans

Disney Dining Plans are available exclusively to Guests with a Vacation Package at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel.

Disney Dining Plans offer a convenient and flexible way to enjoy prepaid meals and snacks during your vacation. With two plans to choose from, you can find the perfect fit for your family's dining preferences—whether you prefer quick meals on the go or leisurely table-service experiences. Plus, having your meals prepaid can provide peace of mind, making your vacation feel even more seamless.

How Disney Dining Plans Work

When planning your vacation, have your Wish Upon a Star with Us Vacation Planner include a Disney Dining Plan in your vacation package.
Choose from over 100 restaurants and make reservations prior to your trip aligned with the number of table service meals included in your chosen Dining Plan.
Use your MagicBand or key card to “pay” for your meal using your meal credits. It will electronically monitor your party’s allocated meals.
Track your meals with the easy-to-read receipt your server will provide you which displays your remaining meal balance, or via the My Disney Experience app.
Redeem your meals in any order throughout your vacation until each person’s meal total is complete.
Gratuities are not included unless otherwise indicated. An automatic 18% gratuity charge will be added to your bill for parties of 6 or more.
Disney dining plan participating locations can be found here.

Many Disney table-service restaurants are quite popular and book quickly, so we highly recommend making reservations as far in advance as possible. Dining reservations can be made 60 days in advance inside your My Disney Experience account. Your Wish Upon a Star with Us Vacation Planner is available to help you through these steps and provide personalized recommendations!
