Disney Dining Plans Are Back!!!

The Disney Quick-Service Dining Plan


The long awaited Disney Dining Plans have returned.


Dining Plans are a great way to save some money as well as present an opportunity to pre-pay your meals so you don’t have to worry about it while you are on vacation.


There are two new plans that Disney now offers. The Disney Dining Plan and The Disney Quick-Service Dining Plan.



What are Quick-Service Meals?


They are meals that you eat without table service.


That means no waiter or waitress is serving your table; no one is bringing you water, drinks or food. No one is clearing your plates and asking if you want anything else. You and your family order at a register (or on your mobile device) and pick up all of your food and drink from a counter. It is all on a tray and you carry it to an open table that you can find to sit and eat. If anyone wants more, you go back to the counter and order more. You pay when you order your food, before you sit and eat, and there is typically no tipping.



Quick-Service Dining Plan Highlights

Everyone in the party ages 3 and over receives the following during their package stay:

  • 2 Quick-Service Meals Per Night of Stay*

  • 1 Snack or Nonalcoholic Beverage Per Night of Stay*

  • 1 Resort-Refillable Mug**

For example, if you book a 4-night package with a Disney Quick-Service Dining Plan, each Guest (ages 3 and up) in your party would receive 8 Quick-Service meals and 4 Snacks or Nonalcoholic Beverages—which can be used at any time during your 4-night stay.

Important Information

  • Beverages are included with each meal. Guests under 21 years of age may choose from a variety of nonalcoholic beverages. Guests 21 and older with valid identification may substitute for beer, wine and cocktails.

  • Guests ages 3 to 9 must order from a children’s menu, where available.

  • Plan must be purchased for the entire length of stay and for the entire party (ages 3 and up).

  • Meals are non transferable between party members and expire at midnight on the day of checkout.

* Specific number of meals and snacks are determined by the number of nights included in the package stay. You can redeem your meals and snacks any day during your stay, until the number associated with your package has been depleted. All unused meals and snacks and the ability to use your refillable mug expire at midnight on your package reservation checkout date.

** Resort-refillable mugs are eligible for refills from self-service beverage islands at any Disney Resort hotel Quick-Service location.



What’s Included In A Meal?

Quick-Service Meal Meals redeemed at breakfast, lunch or dinner will include:

  • 1 Entrée

  • 1 Nonalcoholic Beverage (or Alcoholic Beverage, for Guests 21 and older)

Alcoholic Beverages Guests 21 and older may choose either one nonalcoholic beverage or one-single serving mixed cocktail, beer or wine (where offered) as part of their meal.

A single-serving alcoholic beverage includes items such as:

  • Beer or Cider

  • Wine or Sangria

  • Mixed Drinks and Specialty Cocktails


Nonalcoholic Beverages Guests 10 years of age and older can choose one nonalcoholic beverage (including specialty beverages where offered) as part of their meal.

A single-serving nonalcoholic beverage includes items such as:

  • Milkshakes

  • Fresh Smoothies

  • Premium Hot Chocolate

  • Soda, Coffee or Tea



What Is A Snack? At Quick-Service restaurants, most Outdoor Carts and select merchandise locations, snacks may include a single serving of items such as:

  • Frozen ice cream novelty, popsicle or fruit bar

  • 2 scoops of hand-scooped ice cream

  • Popcorn scoop (single-serving box)

  • Piece of whole fruit

  • Single-serve bag of snacks

  • 20-ounce bottle of Coca-Cola® products, including Dasani® water

  • 20-ounce fountain soft drink

  • Single-serve coffee, hot chocolate, hot tea, milk or juice

  • Cup of soup

  • Add on toppings or sauces (e.g. side of cheese dipping sauce)



What's Not Included?

  • Items that are more than a single serving (such as a box of doughnuts or a jar of peanut butter)

  • Items (such as popcorn or drinks) that are served in a souvenir container

  • Items considered to be merchandise (such as bottle toppers, glow cubes and bottle straps)

  • Special dining events offered at certain Table-Service locations


How to Use Your Dining Plan

Simply present your valid Disney Resort ID (MagicBand, Disney MagicMobile pass or Key to the World card) to your server or cashier at participating restaurants.

If you have special dietary requests, please mention them when ordering. You may also speak with a chef or manager.

If you are dining with another party that’s also on a dining plan, please notify the cashier which meals and snacks should be redeemed for each party.

You can redeem your meals and snacks in any order during your stay, until the number of meals and snacks associated with your package has been depleted. All unused meals and snacks and the ability to use your Resort-refillable mug expire at midnight on your package reservation checkout date.


How to Keep Track of Your Meals

Your dining plan usage is electronically linked to your reservation. Keep track of your remaining meals and snacks in 3 ways:

  1. View your remaining meals and snacks in the My Disney Experience app.

  2. Check your dining receipts. Remaining meals and snacks are printed on them.

  3. Ask your Resort Concierge or Guest Relations to obtain them at any time.

As a reminder, unused meals and snacks will roll over day to day and expire at midnight on day of checkout.


The Fine Print

Dining plan locations are subject to change without notice or liability. Dining plan meals and snacks are not sold separately, are nonrefundable, non transferable and have no cash value. Theme park admission is required for some dining locations. Operating hours, menus, Characters, entertainment, participating locations, components and terms are subject to change without notice. Dining plan meals and snacks are based on the number of nights of your package stay at your Disney Resort hotel. The owners of the Walt Disney World Resort shall not be responsible for the non-utilization of package components due to refurbishing, capacity, closures, inclement weather or any circumstance beyond their control. Effective for arrivals January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024.
