2018 Disney Dining Plans

For 2017, Walt Disney World has continued the same Disney dining plans offered in 2016 and prior years. There was one big change, the Quick-Service meals no longer include a dessert, but an additional snack has been added to the Quick-Service and Disney Dining Plans to compensate.

Quick-Service Dining Plan – Includes 2 Quick-Service meals and two snacks per person per night, plus one resort refillable mug – $52.50 per adult per night and $21.75 per child per night

Disney Dining Plan – Includes 1 Quick-Service meal, 1 Table Service meal and two snacks per person per night, plus one resort refillable mug – $75.49 per adult per night and $25.76 per child per night

Disney Deluxe Dining Plan – Includes 3 meals per night (can be either Quick-Service or Table Service meals) and two snacks per person per night, plus one resort refillable mug – $116.25 per adult per night and $40.00 per child per night

Disney Dining Location Brochure: 2018 Disney Dining Locations

For 2018, Disney is no longer offering the Premium and Platinum plans.

Please note that these dining plan locations brochure will be updated 2 – 3 times before the end of 2017, with additional restaurants being added. Many of the Disney Springs and Epcot restaurants are not Disney owned. Therefore, Disney must negotiate with them each year to be included on the dining plan. This never happens until later in the year, so do not freak out if there aren’t many restaurants included. Just assume the list of included restaurants will be the same as 2017, plus a few additions in Disney Springs with all the new restaurants being added.
