The Disney Magic: Dining

One of the best things about a cruise is the food. Buffets, restaurants, and all you can eat ice cream! On a Disney all your food is included (some adult exceptions) as well as all your drinks (specialities excluded). It's really all amazing. My tip? Take the stairs 90% of the time otherwise you WILL gain 10 pounds, the food is that good. Let's begin.

Quick Service Dining

Quick Service on the ships is very similar to the Quick Service in the parks. It's fast typical theme park food (hot-dogs, hamburgers, pizza, etc.) There are multiple options available on Deck 9. They include Pete's Boiler Bites, Daisy's De-Lites, Goofy's Galley, Pinocchio's Pizzeria, Eye Scream and Frozone Treats and Pluto's Dog House. 
Another quick service option is Preludes on Deck 4. It serves snacks and drinks (for an additional cost) for you drink the live stage shows that are displayed in the Walt Disney Theatre.
Room service is another quick option that's included in your cruise. Twenty-four hour snacks and meals, with soda costing extra. If you want a drink, I suggest running up the Deck 9 and use the drink stations. Remember tipping is recommended!

Casual Dining

Casual Dining is the buffet. On the Disney Magic, it's called Cabanas and its on Deck 9 in the aft. (Before the reimagination, it was called Topsider's) Cabanas is unique in that it is made up of different "stations" where guests can pick and choose what they want, rather than following a snaking line. Decorated like a beach boardwalk with Finding Nemo themes, it's a great place for easy breakfast and a more diverse lunch. My favourites are the Mickey waffles with chocolate syrup and fruit! It's also a more low-key table service restaurant in the evenings for dinner. 

Main Dining

The main dining on Disney Cruise Line is a little different than on other cruise ships. You are assigned a team of servers who follow you to each restaurant each night of the cruise. This helps the servers get to know you and what you like. The first night of our cruise, I asked for a Coke and the next night a Coke was already waiting for me at the table! It's a really great experience, and the servers are all awesome! 

There are three main dining venues aboard the Magic. 

Lumiere's

This is the French venue onboard. It is dedicated to the famous candlestick from Beauty and the Beast. (Menu Here)
