Buffet, Character, Shows, AYCTE Pricing (rev: 06/30/2019)

[lucifie]

The DISUnplugged did a review of the character DINNER at H&V within the last month. My understanding is that dinner is relatively new. The breakfast and lunch is Disney Jr., dinner is Minnie and classic characters.

That's what I needed to know. Thank you!

Trying to figure out how much the character meals would cost in August... The WDW website has a price range for these character buffets. Would the price be on the higher end of the price range during the second week of August??

Trying to figure out how much the character meals would cost in August...

1) I will be doing a new revision prior to March-2016.
2) August prices may or may not be out by then.
3) We will see.

Thank you! Great thread!

 

[FreesiaE]

Whoa, a $9 per person raise for Akershus lunch???

 

[alex9179]

Thank you for your efforts. The question "Is HDD worth it?" has been answered for me. $300 for my family = No!

 

[Sammyjo199]

FYI - it looks like Minnie's Dine went down in price it is listed at 46.99 and 27.99 for kids on the new announcement.

That's not including tax which they do on the price listings.

 

[robndani]

What about the Diamond Horseshoe dinner in April?

 

[disneylovinfamilyof6]

So are these the most up to date with the recent price increases?

 

[Dug720]

Looking at the price list, Akershus lunch is now listed at the same price as dinner. Is it now following what Crystal Palace is doing where dinner starts midday? And if so does that mean it will be the dinner menu?

Pondering it for my first night dinner as I like the dinner menu, but they only have 7pm. If the "lunch" time is now going to be dinner, I'd happily book earlier in the day - but 7 is too late for me since I want to see Illuminations.

I was wondering the same about Garden Grill. Logistically, lunch works out better for us, but we like the fist on the dinner menu.

I apologize if this has been covered before, but I didn't see it as I skimped through the thread. For the character breakfasts, will a child <3 yo be charged as a child or free (I ask people they are not charged for park admission)? Thanks.

For buffet meals, a child under 3 is free and can eat from an adult's plate. We did this for two trips when DD was under 3 and it worked perfectly. In fact, she ate from her own seperate plate both times.

Have a great trip!

 

[dubo]

Wow, this helps, thanks!

KIDS UNDER-3 EAT FREE "411":
1) TECHNICALLY, there is such thing as a "kids-under-3-eat-free" policy.
. . . no where in ANY Disney brochure is this mentioned
. . . there is no such policy
2) But, when done per policy, they eat almost free.
3) And, based upon CM discretion, they can eat free.
4) The official rules:
. . . kids under three can eat off the adult's plate
. . . if they order anything, like milk, they are supposed to pay for it
. . . if they order any food, they are supposed to pay for it
. . . this is anywhere, including buffets
5) What really happens:
. . at buffets & AYCTE kids actually "eat buffet food free"
. . . . . . adults could get the food, instead and give it to the kid
. . . . . . the adult could claim it is their plate kid eats from
. . . . . . they might as well have a drink, for same reason
. . . . . . it's tough to determine it was theirs or their parents
. . . . . . thus, kids can have their own plate and beverage without charge
. . at non-buffet, servers can determine if they ordered food
. . . . . . it is easy to tell if they got a drink
. . . . . . the server usually charges for food ordered for the kid
. . . . . . the server usually let's the drink go, but not food
. . . . . . the server, at their own discretion, can charge for beverage
6) So, to wrap-up, in practical terms
. . . at non-buffets, kids under-3 eat without charge ONLY from parent's plate
. . . at buffets & AYCTE, they can actually take food from the buffet table or separate plate
. . . at all meals, items are ordered for the child "might" be charged for them

 

[bcrook]

I can't stop staring at those Akerhus prices! Wow! The best bargain appears to still be the Trails End Buffet.
