Free Drink Refills for Kids' Table-Service Meals

Now I must admit that at first, I didn't think this was a big deal... then I read the fine print. The kid's meals at Disney World table-service restaurants now include free refills on all beverages -- including milk, juice and bottled water.

I've eaten quite a few kid's meals. And I've always gotten refills on soft drinks. It's nice to know that the healthy options are now included in the free-refill policy.

The fine print: "The refill policy, which is offered at more than three dozen table service restaurants in the Disney parks and resorts, does not apply to specialty drinks that typically are not included with the kids' meals."

That makes sense.

All this talk about table-service restaurants reminds me that I haven't made dining reservations for our September trip. I must get on that!

An Introduction To Disney World Dining

To paraphrase the famous saying, a vacationing family moves on its stomach. To nourish and refresh guests, Disney World has 300 dining locations, plus portable food carts, offering a grand total of 6,000 menu choices.

Even so, the question of what’s for breakfast and lunch and dinner and snacks can be daunting. Is it in our budget? Is the line too long? Can we be seated? Will everyone like it?
