Walt Disney World released their 2016 packages and rates, including an update to the Disney Dining plans for 2016, which include basically no changes from the 2015 and previous year dining plans. Please find below a quick overview of all the available dining plans for Walt Disney World along with a downloadable brochure for each with more in depth information.
Please note, as you look at the brochures, many of the restaurants that will be included for 2016 are not currently listed on the brochures. This happens every year, as the agreements and contracts for non-Disney restaurants are negotiated each year when it comes to inclusion in the dining plans. As 2016 approaches, more restaurants will be included, and the list should be similar to 2015. Updates with additional restaurants or changes will be posted here.
Quick Service Dining Plan
Initially introduced in 2009, this plan has not changed for 2016. The Quick Service dining plan is a fantastic option for park guests who don’t want to be tied to eating at a sit down restaurant each day.
The Quick Service Dining Plan includes, per person, per night of your stay:
- Two quick service meals
- One snack
- One resort refillable resort mug per person per stay
The cost of the Quick Service dining plan is $42.84 per night per adult (10 and older), and $17.47 per child (3 – 9).

The Disney Dining Plan includes, per person, per night of your stay:
- One table service meal
- One quick service meal
- One snack
- One resort refillable resort mug per person per stay
Please note gratuities are not included on the table service meals. Table service meals can also be used for signature restaurants, dinner shows, private dining or pizza delivery (these typically run 2 table service meals per person). More information can be found in the brochure.
The cost of the Disney dining plan is $61.84 per night per adult (10 and older), and $20.96 per child (3 – 9).

Disney Deluxe Dining Plan
One big change from 2015, based on the current brochures, Walt Disney World has removed the appetizer from lunch/dinner options (it never was an option for breakfast).
The Disney Deluxe Dining Plan includes, per person, per night of your stay:
- Three meals, which can be used for either quick service or table service meals
- Two snacks
- One resort refillable mug
The policy is the same for table service meals on the deluxe dining plan (gratuities not included, can be used for signature restaurants, etc.).
The cost of the Disney Deluxe dining plan is $111.73 per night per adult (10 and older), and $32.56 per child (3 – 9).
