On this submit, I’m sharing all concerning the meals on the Disney Want, from theme dinners to the informal breakfast and lunches at Marceline Market. Should you missed it, try my general Disney Cruise overview and Disney Cruise: The Islands.
I’ll admit that I board a cruise ship with mediocre expectations for meals. I’ve been on a handful of cruises in my life and whereas the meals is all the time good, it’s not often nice. My general impression of the meals on our Disney Cruise ranged from good to nice. I didn’t have something I didn’t like. Right here’s an outline of our themed dinners and informal breakfasts and lunches on the Disney Want.
Disney Want Meals
In contrast to cruises I’ve performed prior to now, the good factor a few Disney cruise is the rotating eating rooms. As an alternative of going to the identical eating room on the identical desk each evening with maybe a altering menu, you bought three totally different eating rooms over the course of the cruise, every with a really totally different theme. On the Want, the themes have been Nineteen Twenties, Marvel, and Frozen. I feel I loved the eating expertise in 1923 essentially the most however the different two themes have been actually enjoyable. You may see all of the eating choices on the Disney web site right here. I must also point out that my sister is gluten-free they usually had gluten-free choices at each cease – she simply typically needed to ask for them.
Eating Time
One factor to notice: There are two eating seatings to accommodate everybody, one at 5:45 and one at 8:15. After we booked our cruise (fairly far prematurely I would add), the one eating time left was 8:15! We knew with three children underneath 10 that this time was not going to work. Even the adults thought it could be a battle. We have been on a waitlist for five:45 and have been SO THRILLED when our eating time was up to date a couple of hours previous to the primary dinner. If we had had 8:15 we might have had a very totally different eating expertise. So grateful they might accommodate our massive group on the early seating.

Dinner in 1923
We had our first two nights at 1923. This was an excellent task for 2 nights in a row because it was not overly themed. We LOVED having fancy bourbon cocktails. And I really like the Nineteen Twenties normally, so this was my private favourite theme. The eating room is embellished with authentic props from Disney films corresponding to a bust from the Little Mermaid and animation sketches.
The youngsters had a special exercise ebook every evening that stored them busy for the primary quarter-hour or so. Another excuse Disney is so child pleasant! Additionally they had children cups with lids and introduced all their drink requests. The following evening those self same drinks have been already ready on the desk!

We ended up doing informal for all, however my sister and her group did the formal breakfast a couple of instances. There have been two choices for informal: Mickey & Buddies Competition of Meals (on the pool deck with stations by class) and Marceline Market. We had tacos and pizza on the pool deck the primary day, however in any other case at in Marceline or on shore on an island.

Even the silverware got here wrapped up in a bundle vs. a giant container everybody was touching. They’d an excellent number of meals and loads of it was very wholesome!
