How much does the Disney Dining Plan cost?
The Quick Service Disney Dining Plan costs $57.01 per adult per day and $23.83 per kid (ages 3-9) per day.
The Disney Dining Plan costs $94.28 per adult per day and $29.69 per kid (ages 3-9) per day.
Back in the day, pre-2020, the Quick Service DDP cost $55 per adult and $26 per kid, while the standard DDP cost $78 per adult and $30 per kid. A $40 increase is insane.

How to Buy the Disney Dining Plan
You will need to choose and book a Disney Resort Hotel Package that includes a dining plan.
You can also make changes to existing reservations and upgrade to a Disney Resort Hotel Package that includes the dining plan.
Every restaurant that accepts the Disney Dining Plan
The list is pretty massive, so I wrote it on a separate page. You can check out the Disney Dining Plan eligible restaurants here!
Annual Passholders and the Disney Dining Plan
Disney World annual pass holders can add the DDP to their home stay without having to purchase a package that includes park tickets.
Disney Vacation Club Members and the Disney Dining Plan
If you are a DVC Member, you can add the DDP to their points stay, but you will have to adhere to some fine print and rules. To book, you’ll have to call the DVC line at 1-800-800-9800
Disney Dining Plan Credit Values $
- Quick Service Credit = $23 each
- Table Service Credit = $59 each
- Snack Credit = $6
If you’re tryna break even, then you’ll need to choose menu items and meals that cost more than these credit values.
Is the Disney Dining Plan still worth it?
To me, as long as you maximize each credit value, you can technically get more food than what you paid for.
Some of my favorite tips are:
- character meals are a must because these are always the priciest, but still only cost 1 Table Service Credit.
- DO NOT spend 2 Table Service Credits on Signature Restaurants because that’s a waste of money
- Always go for the steak, lobster, alcohol, shakes, and smoothies
- Skip the salad entrees
- Non-character breakfast is a terrible use of credits
Best Table Service Credit Uses
If you want to maximize your table service credit and technically get more food than what you paid for, then these are my favorite restaurants, off the top of my head with the best values:
- Chef Mickey’s (dinner)
- Crystal Palace (lunch and dinner)
- Hollywood Vine (lunch and dinner)
- 1900 Park Fare
- Ohana (dinner)
- Tusker House (lunch and dinner)
- Garden Grill (lunch and dinner)
These are all buffets or family-style and all of them except Ohana dinner is a character meal. Best bang for you buck, by far.
…
Hope this helps!
