Breakfast Reservations at Be Our Guest — Are They Still Worth It?

A few years ago, my husband and I booked an advanced dining breakfast reservation at Be Our Guest for one hour prior to park opening. We were excited to experience all things Be Our Guest but we were REALLY excited to ride Seven Dwarfs Mine Train without having to wait hours in line! Queuing up for Mine Train or Peter Pan after finishing breakfast was a sure fire way to ride one (or even both) rides before the park was open! With lines for both Peter Pan and Mine Train growing as soon as the Welcome Show crowds are released, …

Want to be the First on Main Street USA? — Magic Kingdom Opening Timeline

My daughter and I recently stayed at the Contemporary for a little girl’s trip! If your preschooler is anything like mine, they love to wake up before the sun… and wake you up too! Since we were up and awake we figured we would head over to the Magic Kingdom bright and early! We’re always Rope Drop-ers but this was a new level of arriving early! Let’s take a look at the Magic Kingdom park opening schedule that we experienced. 6:45 am – Left our room and started walking to the Magic Kingdom from the Contemporary 7:00 am – Security …

Review of Breakfast at the Plaza Restaurant in Magic Kingdom

Breakfast is now available at the Plaza Restaurant in the Magic Kingdom! My family and I decided to give it a try earlier this week and it most definitely did not disappoint. In fact, not only was the menu affordable (for Disney dining), it was delicious too! Let’s dive into our breakfast experience at the Plaza Restaurant! The Plaza Restaurant is located at the end of Main Street with a fantastic view of Cinderella Castle! Upon checking in with the restaurant hostess, we received a buzzer so that we could walk around a bit while waiting for our table. The …

Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party 2018 Recap

My preschooler and I ventured to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party last Friday and had such an amazing time! The party did not sell-out and I really think the lower crowd levels played into why we were able to do so much even though we left around 10pm! Let’s jump into the fun we had at the party! We arrived at Magic Kingdom around 1:30 pm. If you do not have a park ticket, you can arrive with just your party ticket as early as 4pm (or as early as 2pm if you’re a DVC member). Before the party began, we …

Breakfast at Be Our Guest in the Magic Kingdom

Be Our Guest is the most popular restaurant at the Magic Kingdom, and quite possibly the hardest restaurant at Disney World to book a reservation at. Not only is the food absolutely delicious but the theming and ambiance are fantastic. Reservations are necessary for all 3 meals of the day although breakfast and lunch are considered quick service and dinner is table service. If you are hoping to dine inside the Beast’s castle, I highly recommend booking your reservation at the 180 day mark (especially if you have a large party). Let’s take a peek at breakfast at Be Our …

A Morning at the Magic Kingdom

The Magic Kingdom has more to do and see than any of the other parks at Disney World. I always like to have a plan of attack for the day when we visit the Magic Kingdom, just to make sure we don’t miss out on any of our toddler’s favorites! I thought it would be fun to share our typical morning at the Magic Kingdom! Keep in mind that we live local to the parks and usually don’t spend a full day, but this will give you an idea of how we usually like to plan our time! A Morning at …
