Dining Onboard Your Disney Cruise

Dining Included in Your Cruise

  • Rotational dining:

    • Disney Cruise ships have 3 different main dining rooms. You’ll be assigned to a “rotation” schedule where each night you’ll dine in a different restaurant, but your dining staff will stay the same! Depending on the length of your cruise, you’ll eat at each restaurant at least once, but you may repeat one or more locations.

    • Dining times:

      • First seating - around 5:45PM

      • Second seating - around 8:15PM

      • The first seating is the most popular for those with younger children and can “sell out.” The booking system will default to the 8:15PM dining time, but let your travel agent know if you’d like the first seating. If it’s not available, you can be put on a waitlist and it almost always comes through for our clients (though not guaranteed).

  • Other dining options:

    • Rotational dining isn’t required

    • You can do an adult dinner, buffet/quick service options, or even do room service (included).

  • Breakfast and lunch:

    • Table service: there will be a specific sit-down restaurant open for both breakfast and lunch and noted on your Disney Cruise Line Navigator app

    • Room service: room service is always available 24/7 except on your debarkation day

    • Buffet: the buffet is open certain hours for breakfast, lunch, and dinner on your Disney cruise ship

  • Adult restaurant upgrades:

    • These reservations are made at your onboard activities booking date, of which your travel agent will advise you.

    • I highly recommend upgrading to one of the adult dining brunches or lunches, if available, or a dinner if you can't get a brunch. They both do incredible brunches/lunches and dinners. You can't go wrong with either!

    • Adult restaurants by ship:

      • Wonder/Magic: Palo

      • Dream/Fantasy: Palo & Remy

      • Wish/Treasure/Destiny: Palo Steakhouse & Enchante
