I have eaten at Be Our Guest twice. Be Our Guest is a new restaurant located in New Fantasyland in Magic Kingdom. It is the dining experience inside Beast’s Castle. New Fantasyland is one of my new favorite areas of Magic Kingdom and I enjoy spending time exploring the shops and new tavern areas located there.
Be Our Guest has three different dining rooms. Each dining room contains a different theme and a different experience. The West Wing dining room is considered the most popular among guests. It is a dark room themed to look like the West Wing in Beast’s castle. There are eerie windows, paintings, and Beast’s magical rose is located there!
Another dining room is the parlor room. It is not featured in Beauty and The Beast but it is a cute room. There is a spinning statue of Belle and the Beast dancing in the middle of the room. It always reminds me of a Belle music box I had when I was little.
My favorite dining room by far is the ballroom. This is where I have eaten on both of my Be Our Guest experiences. If you have seen Beauty and the Beast, you know the most famous scene is where Belle and the Beast dance in the ballroom to the song, Beauty and The Beast. The ballroom in Be Our Guest is an exact replica of this room from the movie. There are beautiful gigantic windows that always have magical snow falling outside behind them. There is a mural painted on the ceiling and it is definitely a grand ballroom experience.
The first time I ate at Be Our Guest, I went during lunch. For lunch, you do not need a reservation. You need to get in line outside the entrance to the restaurant by about 10AM and wait about 30-45 minutes. During that time, you will be added to a waiting list and at about 10:45 or 11, you will be allowed inside to eat your meal! When my family did this, we entered the restaurant and waited in a short line. We walked through the castle and saw the talking knights along the walls. Once inside, we ordered the food we wanted on computer screens located in the lobby. After placing our order, we went and chose a seat in one of Be Our Guest’s three dining rooms. A waiter then brought our food directly to our table. I had a roast beef dish that was delicious!
For my second Be Our Guest experience, my family made dinner reservations in advance. Just like Cinderella’s Royal Table, I would suggest booking your reservations as soon as you possibly can because this is a very popular dining experience. You can do this online. You will need to include how many people will be in your party and you will be able to choose between the three dining rooms based upon availability. When you book a reservation for dinner, you get a much more full experience than just a quick-service lunch. A waiter will come and take your order instead of using the computers like in the quick-service lunch experience. The Beast is available for photos with your entire party after your meal. When we dined there on our last trip, the Beast was coming out from his chambers and someone dropped a plate as he passed. He let out a roar and got very grumpy, true to his character from the movie. It was a very funny moment to witness! On this trip, I chose to eat the steak. It came with French fries and asparagus. My brother ate the pork chop and he said it was really tasty. My mom and boyfriend raved that their potato leek soup was delicious and the best potato soup they’ve ever had!
If you want, you can order “The Grey Stuff” for dessert. If you’ve ever heard the song Be Our Guest, you would know that you should definitely “try the grey stuff, it’s delicious.” Don’t believe me? Ask the dishes.
