Walt Disney World has launched the whole* listing of 232 taking part eating places for the 2024 Disney Eating Plans. This shares all the counter and desk service eating places confirmed as being eligible on the 2 tiers of DDPs which can be out there, plus commentary about what’s lacking. (Up to date April 1, 2024.)
Let’s begin with the fundamentals, which is that that Disney Eating Plans are as soon as once more out there to buy. This now contains each full Walt Disney World trip packages and ticketless resort lodge + Disney Eating Plan reservations. Listed here are all the particulars and modifications for the 2024 Disney Eating Plan.
As of proper now, solely the Fast-Service Disney Eating Plan (QSDDP) and normal or common Disney Eating Plan (DDP) are bookable for each 2024 and 2025. Along with the paid model, Free Eating has additionally made a comeback for 2024. We’re anticipating a ‘second wave’ with extra journey dates to be launched later within the yr.
Let’s begin with the most recent updates to the listing as of April 2024. The primary is that 1900 Park Fare will take part within the Disney Eating Plan as 1-credit desk service meal for breakfast or dinner. Given its pricing ($66 per grownup and $41 per baby for dinner; $54 per grownup and $34 per baby for breakfast), 1900 Park Fare about maxes out the 1-credit worth vary for the DDP. Consequently, dinner at 1900 Park Fare is an glorious (prime 5) use of a Disney Eating Plan credit score and breakfast can be fairly good.
This month’s different huge addition is eet by Maneet Chauhan at Disney Springs. This may also make our listing of theFinest Counter Service Counter Service Credit score Makes use of on the Disney Eating Plan for 2024 (as soon as up to date). It received’t be #1 like its predecessor, however the BYOB will earn it a spot on the listing. There are a few different objects which can be likewise worthy of consideration from a price for credit score perspective.
In opposition to that backdrop, Walt Disney World has up to date its eating portal to listing the 230 eating places that can take part within the DDP and the 119 eating places that will likely be eligible for the QSDDP. Sadly, Walt Disney World has not organized these lists into classes or any easily-digestible method, so we’re simply going to provide the identical info-dump they’ve launched.

Once more, that’s the complete listing for now. A few of these eating places are desk service eating places, others at counter service eating places, and a handful are snack spots. Their eligibility falls alongside these traces.
Relating to at the moment operational eating places, this listing doesn’t embrace Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue, which is for no matter motive not on the official listing. Nevertheless, the official restaurant web page itself does point out that it’s taking part within the 2024 Disney Eating Plan as a 2-credit desk service choice–identical as earlier than.
Probably the most conspicuous omission of all is (nonetheless) California Grill.
Beforehand a 2-credit Signature Restaurant, essentially the most logical clarification for why California Grill isn’t on the listing is its prix fixe menu. There are different eating places (like Be Our Visitor) that do prix fixe menus and the Disney Eating Plan, however California Grill is nicer than Be Our Visitor.
What’s attainable is that California Grill is so standard that Walt Disney World doesn’t assume the DDP is required, and is prepared to start out the yr with out it. Nevertheless, our guess is that’ll change over the course of 2024, as different eating places that do settle for the Disney Eating Plan will eat into California Grill’s reputation.
One other evident omission is Area 220 Restaurant in EPCOT. That is owned by Patina Group, which operates many eating places round Walt Disney World–together with Through Napoli in EPCOT.
All of Patina’s different eating places are on the listing above, which implies that Patina has negotiated and reached phrases with Walt Disney World on the remaining however not Area 220. Despite the fact that that is disappointing, it is sensible. Patina eager to take a wait and see strategy on demand with the still-new Area 220 would definitely make sense.
That is one other one which we wouldn’t be shocked to see added to the Disney Eating Plan within the second half of 2024 as ADRs decelerate for Area 220. Or possibly they received’t decelerate, and Area 220 can keep its stratospheric demand even with out the DDP. (On the very least, we’d guess that the brand new restaurant scent wears off over the course of the yr and it’s added to the 2025 Disney Eating Plan.)
Sticking with EPCOT, there are two less-surprising snubs: Monsieur Paul in France and Takumi Tei in Japan.
The third events in each France and Japan have now negotiated their contracts and the remainder of the eating places of their respective World Showcase pavilions are actually taking part within the 2024 Disney Eating Plan. These two are nearly definitely the exceptions as a result of they’ve dear prix fixe menus that don’t match inside the regular parameters of the DDP.
With that stated, Monsieur Paul was fairly unpopular pre-closure and wanted the whole lot attainable to fill tables. When each it and Takumi-Tei reopened, demand was sky-high, even with absurd worth will increase. Each have since returned to actuality, and ADRs are a lot simpler at each. It could not shock us within the least if both or each are last-minute additions to the 2024 Disney Eating Plan, with funky guidelines as to how credit work.
That is nonetheless not but a complete listing of all eating places that can in the end take part within the 2024 Disney Eating Plan in some unspecified time in the future. A number of extra eating places will likely be added all year long.
Many eating places at Walt Disney World are owned and operated by third events. (When you didn’t, sorry to burst that bubble.) This isn’t simply at Disney Springs, which is house to chains and outposts of famend movie star cooks. It’s additionally true at some resort eating places, and in each EPCOT and Animal Kingdom. This contains Homecomin’, Maria & Enzo’s, Morimoto Asia, Cooks de France, Through Napoli, Coronado Springs eating, and extra.
Walt Disney World negotiates with these third occasion eating places in regards to the phrases of their participation within the Disney Eating Plan. Really, “negotiate” could be a robust phrase; I don’t have perception into the method, however assume it’s extra a take it or depart it provide by Walt Disney World with uniform contract phrases.
In our Disney Eating Plan Data & Evaluate submit, we reverse-engineer a greenback worth for every kind of DDP credit score, with $45 being the quantity ascribed to a desk service credit score. (That quantity might find yourself being increased or decrease for 2024–we don’t but have pricing.) Walt Disney World does the identical (minus the reverse-engineering half) and units a reimbursement fee for these third events.
In different phrases, if a third-party desk restaurant chooses to accepts the Disney Eating Plan, they’re paid a fee beneath the precise worth of every DDP credit score, with Disney additionally taking their reduce. For instance, the third occasion could be paid $25 by Walt Disney World for every credit score that’s redeemed. (That is an instance and $25 is just not the precise quantity eating places are paid–we don’t know the true quantity.)
What we do know is that it’s low sufficient that third occasion restaurant operators must weigh the low reimbursement fee in opposition to the ubiquity and visitor adoption fee of the Disney Eating Plan. For third occasion restaurateurs, it’s a lesser of two evils situation: do these venues settle for lowered income per meal or a lowered fill-rate for tables?
Inevitably, practically all third occasion eating places find yourself selecting the previous. The ultimate participant listing for the 2024 Disney Eating Plan will likely be nearly an identical to what it was in 2020…plus all the new eating places which have opened since then, minus no matter has closed or modified names.
There’s all the time an opportunity a restaurant or two will “break ranks” and decide out of the 2024 Disney Eating Plan. If something, that appears extra doubtless than has occurred up to now. Walt Disney World eating places have gotten used to working with out the DDP in the previous couple of years, and enterprise has been booming throughout that point. Nevertheless, I can solely assume of some cases of this ‘decide out’ taking place over the past decade.
Presently, just a few excessive profile eating places aren’t on the above listing of individuals within the 2024 Disney Eating Plan.
Of these, STK is about the most rational restaurant to drop the Disney Eating Plan. It doesn’t cater to the traditional DDP crowd–it’s one thing of an anomaly of Walt Disney World eating, eschewing households for conference visitors and locals on date evening. (STK not accepting the Disney Eating Plan would most likely be greatest for all concerned.)
In the end, this very same situation with the Disney Eating Plan performs out each single yr. Readers normally begin asking about exclusions within the fall, with some comprehensible “freaking out” nearer to Christmas. Up to now, it hasn’t helped that information on DisneyWorld.com is usually inconsistent from web page to web page.
We’ll preserve you posted and replace this listing accordingly when Walt Disney World provides or removes eating places from the listing of 2024 Disney Eating Plan individuals.
