Review: What's DIFFERENT At Disney World's Be Our Guest Restaurant?

[@unvoicedapollo3318]

Never understood why they didn't make the library the third room.

[@anorangutan828]

tru dat my guy

[@farah_lynn]

Yes it doesn't make any sense!

[@TiffanyAllen1784]

Maybe books would be a health code nightmare? I still can’t figure out how Rainforest Café manages. How do they clean?

[@unvoicedapollo3318]

@@TiffanyAllen1784 They wouldn't need to be real books. If they can make it look like it's snowing and have a floating enchanted rose, they could do the same with books.

[@TiffanyAllen1784]

Kevin Adams Projections of books or 2D wallpaper wouldn’t be particularly convincing. The thing that makes the library so incredible is its grandeur. I imagine a scaled-down version would be disappointing. Imagineers will have no doubt considered it. Presumably there’s a valid reason for going another way.

[@brittanyk524]

I’m sure at some point next year they will go back to quick service lunch because of how popular it was but times are tough right now 🤷‍♀️

[@amydoran9987]

I wish they did not change the lunch menu to be an expensive pre platted meal. I liked the regular quick service much more.We ate here for lunch for years and now we will not return.

[@brantnerk2]

I just texted my best friend who I go to Disney with saying our trip to BOG this past November was our last 😕

[@robertbabcock7110]

Same for us. I liked the variety of the old menu and it was so delicious!! Not going to drop that kind of $$ on those types of foods.

[@Bayoubabie]

I believe it's only temporary because of the circumstances

[@dcvintage]

It's only temporary, when the park goes back to normal lunch will be quick service and breakfast will return

[@neilynneparcon4873]

Us too. My fam and I always book BOG for breakfast or lunch and we love it but with the price fix.. We won't go back. Not worth it in my opinion. So hoping they will bring back the QS again 🤞... We love using our QS credits here.

[@nikki8889991122]

This restaurant is very beautiful, but I don't think it's very "picky eater friendly", especially during dinner hours. I do think it's worth it to dine here at least once if you're a fan of the movie. I couldn't decide if I wanted to dine in the Ballroom or the West Wing, so I went on two different days during breakfast. I had a nice time taking in the atmosphere, but I wouldn't dine there again just for the food alone. This place really is all about the atmosphere.

[@Steve_in_NJ]

At $62 per person, that atmosphere is cost prohibitive, unfortunately.

My husband and I went for dinner last August on the first night of our honeymoon trip. They were very tripped up by his chocolate allergy. Everything was tasty and we did split a wine flight. The Beast walked in right as a table across from us in the Rose Room had a proposal. But in the end we definitely would agree with you AJ at the price point it was a one and done. Definitely too pricey for lunch.

[@HeatherLandon227]

My favorite experience the last trip was actually eating dinner on the front porch at Tony's. Great place to just take in the Main St USA atmosphere. Not going back til long after this is over but I'm still doing my usual browsing hotels etc just because it's a good distraction.

[@veronicadowdy4429]

As a HUGE Beauty and the Beast fan, eating at this restaurant was the highlight of our trip. I would most definitely go again. We had the dinner, which I thought was very good. Meeting the Beast was one of the best parts, so it kind of stinks that you cant do that right now. However, I probably won't be visiting Disney at all until after the craziness is over.

[@DVolvoguy777-x7o]

Veronica Dowdy, my wife the same. We go next year with twice the money! Agree with you. Not till this crazy is over.

[@Rinesim]

My husband and I went there on Saturday for lunch - definitely agree with the one and done statement. I totally think it was worth it, we weren't mad about the price being set as it was for the experience we got. Some fantastic food, wine and top notch service but there's just so many other places we want to eat at that I think it will be a while before (if) we return. Definitely a must for a special occasion lunch/dinner though!

[@wutang2905]

We were just there last week and loved it. I think it is worth it going for the first time especially for dinner

[@NessieMay]

Be Our Guest breakfast was one of our favorite meals we had in Disney! I hope they bring it back someday🤞

[@whatsup5446]

I love the 1991 “Beauty and the Beast” and being a foodie, I would love to eat inside the forbidden West Wing, but for that same price, I’ll eat far superior food at Boma or Yak & Yeti.

[@DVolvoguy777-x7o]

Breakfast is really good at this restaurant. My family makes it a must when we do Magic Kingdom. We will be going next year when things are settled. Cinderella’s Table for lunch or dinner!

[@JasonMAlexander]

We used our QUICK SERVICE DINING PASS to eat breakfast and we loved it! I originally had decided to pay out of pocket for dinner and booked a reservation.Afterwards I looked at the menu and I knew my finicky kids would probably only nibble & pick at their food at best. Food I’d just spent $30 on! Since breakfast was included with the quick service we did that instead, the menu was much more palatable for the kids and my wife & I LOVED it! It’s really sad that there’s no breakfast anymore (or dining passes). Until the dining pass returns we probably won’t be dining there again, unfortunately.

[@Showtunediva]

The room that Belle designed looks awesome. I would totally love to eat here. Beauty And The Beast is special to me because it is the first musical I ever saw on Broadway,

[@TheSeldamoo]

I find these videos to be epic! What I mean is you all are on top of it! I can’t believe how much I know compared to hardcore Disneyland/world fans. I keep sharing these to help my friends. Thank you guys so much!

[@BROWNBROWS]

I want to thank you for preparing me for my trip (returned Tuesday) your information was extremely helpful.

[@margaretd3710]

I understand the excitement of eating in the castle, but if I'm going to go all out for a meal, I'll go to Epcot and eat at M. Paul's. We ate there a couple years ago and had our socks knocked off by the experience. It was quite expensive, but it was worth it! The wait staff is from France so you really feel like you're there. And, since we got a window seat, we got to see the fireworks. A total package. It was simply a fabulous, fabulous night.

[@Epcotfans54]

This was one of my favorite places for lunch. So sorry they changed that. I won't be going back unless they change the menu back to the way it used to be. Way too expensive.

[@KellyHodder]

i loveee the quick service lunch so i booked a reservation for my trip in a week. saw that lunch had the dinner menu and quickly canceled. that food is way too heavy for mid-day august in florida 😬

[@caraevans7105]

We’ve had all 3 meals here on past visits. While I really did enjoy it, I agree that it’s definitely not worth that new signature meal price tag. I’m glad we’ve been several times because we probably won’t be going back.

[@penelopepitstop762]

We ate in the west wing back when it first opened and afterwards got our photo with the beast. What a fun time!

[@lavitadogtrainer444]

I’m going to Disney for 5 days mid August and the 2 Magic kingdom days I was able to book a be our Guest restaurant dinner for both. I’m a huge Beauty and the beast fan (I hate the live action) and always get as many dinner reservations as I can. Honestly, with all my food restrictions this is definitely one of my favorite places to eat! Sure there is plenty of yummy food elsewhere for less $ but I go in knowing full well I’m paying extra to see the beast and dine in the castle. I used to eat at Cinderella‘s table when Belle was still there just to get a photo with Belle. Obviously this isn’t for everybody but for me not being able to ride everything that I want and do everything that I want due to physical limitations, the addition of Bells’ Village, the castle, and the extra photo opportunities make it totally worth it to me!!!!!!!!!! And yes, I volunteer for a spot to carry a goofy plastic cut out so that at the end I can get a photo with Belle in the enchanted tails with Belle attraction. I’m an adult but it’s still fun to imagine and have fun in the happiest place on earth. :) Thank you for these updates it’s making my anxiety about this upcoming trip ease. Thank you for keeping us updated and sharing your tips and tricks!!!!!!!

[@ydabble]

For all the beauty of the castle I will not dine there again. I worked so hard to get two reservations and was sooooooo excited and between the food and service I just cannot deny my disappointment. Although the manager was gracious in listening to my complaints and fully seemed to understand I wanted my experience to be dinner at the castle (not a conversation with the manager). I stand by my opinion that he was deliriously kind and wonderful, and if it was in his power to change those experiences I am certain he would have. I hope the changes go well and should you get to dine at the castle that you have a magical experience.

[@TiffanyAllen1784]

Why don’t we have one of these in Paris? WHHHYYY? 😭 If Florida gets the Ratatouille attraction can’t we have this?! It’s almost criminal that the French park has almost no references (the scene in the fairy tale canal boat ride barely counts) to Beauty and the Beast.

[@marcussheen]

Yes, hopefully they will get a transplant of the new Beauty and the Beast area going into Tokyo. The original Disneyland Paris really needs a new E-Ticket ride, but I suppose covid will not work in its favour.

[@TiffanyAllen1784]

@@marcussheen Their primary focus right now is on the Studios park expansions, then there's the Disney Village renovations to handle. After that, their original agreement when they bought the land includes a third park that they're supposed to have started working on by some time roughly in the next decade, or they lose the land, so I doubt we'll see much done in Parc Disneyland any time soon....

The last time we ate at Be Our Guest the dessert trio included a Raspberry Macaroon rather than a Lemon Macaroon. We really loved the Raspberry one. It’s a shame it’s gone. It was the best macaroon I’ve ever had. You would really need to like raspberry because it had a very strong flavor. I’m not a lemon fan at all. Hopefully the raspberry one will come back for our next trip. Thanks for sharing.

So Dessert is included? A cast member told me that it was not included when I booked, but a drink was? 🤗

[@amandasmith1473]

Let's be real. No one goes to Be Our Guest for the food. They go for the alcohol. Anyone who has ever waited 90 minutes in line with a four year old for a three minute theme park attraction knows that after that experience, you need a drink, cigarettes something.

We ate there on 7/30/20 and definitely did not receive the level of service I had expected for the money. One of the servers clumsily set our soup bowls down and spilled some. They brought my wife the regular soup instead of the gluten free version she had requested. My wife’s entree arrived at least 5 minutes after mine and my daughter’s. One of the servers asked again what she ordered after bringing us ours. No one came by to ask how our meals were a few minutes after getting them (standard practice at any decent restaurant). We were not asked if we wanted any refills. Food was good, but definitely overpriced. Not planning to go back again.

[@syndys4463]

I'm still waiting to see if anyone has tried to use their Tables In Wonderland card during lunch at BOG. It was previously only valid during dinner when it was table service but now lunch = dinner for pricing & service, so shouldn't the discount be applicable at lunch?

[@cassiforest9191]

Be Our Guest was such an insane let down when I finally got to go. I couldn't get reservation when we went in 2016, we got a reservation for 2019. I had waited years to eat there and all my Disney friends were talking about how breath taking it was. The food was meh. The waitress ignored me when I told her I had a dairy and nut allergy (which I had to tell her, every other restaurant I was asked) and it felt like every course I had to send back since I couldn't eat it as served. It was my only negative experience in the trip. 🤣

We are extremely HEARTBROKEN about the menu changes for lunch!!!!!!!!!! We had an ADR for lunch for our initial trip (April) and again when we rescheduled for October 6th. Then, they cancelled all the ADR's and made the lunch a Price Fixe. What do you do IF you are allergic to onions and can't eat the soup, or not a fan of the meats and cheeses. We decided that even if the two of us would love to see inside the castle, $62 pp (just us two boomers) is a waste if 1/2 of us can't eat the food anyway. I doubt they'd let one adult buy a children's lunch (mac and cheese) so sorry, it's a switch to Liberty Tree Tavern! Being from Philadelphia, it will be like being at home!

Be Our Guest is ok as a signature, but for the price and the fact that it takes so much time out of your day, it is not worth it.

[@catherineflores78]

We ate dinner at BOG before it was turned into a signature dining experience. It was meh. I was floored when I had heard that they had turned it into a two credit meal because I just didn't think it was worth the single credit. Maybe that's the reason that they took away the quick service options because honestly that was the only way I would eat there.

[@timkunk3498]

Many of the signature diners are Meh. But by calling them "signature" you can charge more for them. I have only three (3) meals at Disney that I loved 1) the Ham anbd halibut, Coral Sea Epcot 2) Prime Rib, Cinderella's Magic Kingdom 3) Pot Roast, Liberty Tree Tavern Magic Kingdom The rest were meh, to bleeeck. Remember the disproven wine snobs. Most if not all base it on the lable. Or to impress the on looker. But heck I like a Turcky Leg, just think $11.xx is a bit over priced.

I wouldn’t go at the current price of $62 for adults and $37 per child. I’ve been a handful of times, one of my favorite times was snagging a late lunch qs reservation and watching them switch over for dinner. Also, going after Christmas for the holiday hangover with xmas decorations still being up. It was always empty in the late afternoons (last possible time to reserve) and I always felt like we had the place to ourselves. This for me is definitely a one and done-the food is lackluster compared to other meals I’ve had on property and the ballroom when full of people echos and sounds like a cafeteria. Personally-its more fun to walk through after eating qs than to have a full meal.

[@Disneynut1958]

I'm upset. I loved breakfast there, and the lunch was great. Dinner has been hit or miss on the 4 times I have had dinner. It's getting a bit pricy for me. I will take Skipper Canteen any day from now on .

Heck a turkey leg is very good, and only a bit over priced. $11.xx

So do you have to be within the age limit to order the kids menu and be charged $37 or can you be an adult ordering the Mac and cheese and they charge you $37 instead of $62?
