Last June when Walt Disney World announced updates to the 2018 Disney Dining Plan, many guests were thrilled to discover that beginning this year, all three plans include Specialty and Alcoholic Drinks! This means that diners can order delicious milkshakes, fruity smoothies, and tasty adult beverages without having to pay out of pocket.
Southern Sangria and Not Everyone’s Margarita
And thus the 2018 vacation planning (by vacation planning we mean vacation meal planning) began! But unlike in past years, Disney has yet to publish a list of the 2018 restaurants that are participating in the DDP! So we did the leg work for you!
Check out our 2018 Disney Dining Plan Restaurants Page HERE page to see where you can spend those credits (and indulge in those drinks!).
Phew! And while you’re daydreaming about noshing on a slice of Via Napoli pizza, you can also visit our Disney Dining Plans page for all the information you need to make the most of your meal credits and our answers to Disney Dining Plan FAQs! We know the DDP can be confusing (How do I make sure it’s a deal for my family? What if I want to use my Quick Service credits to buy all the Mickey Krispie Treats?), so we’ve got your back!
And if you’re looking for everything in the realm of Disney World dining, take a peek at our DFB Guide to Walt Disney World Dining, which has hundreds of pages of detailed information to feed your Disney dining soul!

The 2018 list still has Capt. Grille listed
Do we know if there are exclusions on the alcoholic beverages included? Like can you get a $20 glass of wine. Or are certain brands/prices/top shelf liquor excluded.
Are the alcoholic beverages only included with meals or can you redeem one at Pongu Pongu for example?
Peyton, the beverage that’s included in the Disney Dining Plan needs to be redeemed when you order a meal. You can’t separate the components and get a beverage elsewhere. Sorry!
Hi, Jessica! The Walt Disney World Web site does say “some exceptions apply”, but we don’t have any specific examples of those exceptions. We’ll keep our eyes peeled to see what they might include.
ND Lee, thanks! Fixed it!
Hi Guys… don’t see Chef Mickeys listed for table service… Thx for the list! Very Helpful!
My bad… it’s under character dining… duh!
Sleepy hollow is not included ????
Is nothing on their menu included for 2018 ?!
Loved that place
Joseph, the Sleepy Hollow official menu on DisneyWorld.com is currently showing “Disney Dining Plan Not Accepted.” So disappointing, we know!
Thanks for the feedback, Mike! We’re glad you find the list helpful.
On the new Disney Dining plan 2018 on the Disney website paddle fish is not listed as a 2 credit dining experience. But everywhere/ all other non Disney affiliated websites I look it’s a 2 credit dinner. Can you verify, please and thank you!!!
