Disneyland Paris meal plans: the complete guide

Disneyland Paris meal plans change for arrivals from 1 April 2027. I’ll start with the new plans, then cover the ones that apply to arrivals up to 31 March 2027.

Booking a stay at a Disney hotel and wondering how the meal plans work? These plans, which some people also call "meal vouchers", can only be booked with a hotel stay. They aren’t available to day visitors.

They let you plan your meals in advance, keep your budget under control and, in some cases, save a little money. I explain everything below, from how they work to whether they’re worth it.

The new meal plans come in four options: Essential, Extra, Signature and Royal. They apply to arrivals from 1 April 2027. What counts is your arrival date, not the date you book. You’ll find the official guide on the meal plans page of the Disneyland Paris website (in French).

With the new plans, the names "half board" and "full board" disappear. Breakfast plus 1 meal per night is the equivalent of half board. Breakfast plus 2 meals per night is the equivalent of full board. But breakfast is booked separately: it isn’t included in the price.

As now, the plan is bought in advance, never on the spot. You put it together in three steps.

Here are the prices announced by Disney, per person per night. They’re up to date as of October 2026. A child pays half the adult price.

Breakfast is no longer included in the plan, unlike the current half board and full board. To compare, add the price of breakfast if you’re having it.

An example: 2 adults and 1 child, 3 nights on the Extra option with 2 meals per night. That comes to €600, without breakfast.

Here are the restaurants where your meal is included. Just look at the column for your option. I noted them down on 5 October 2026 from the Disneyland Paris website. For each option, the official guide gives one more restaurant than this list, without naming it.

Your voucher is also accepted in the other restaurants in the parks and Disney hotels. If the meal costs more than your voucher, you pay the difference. At Disney Village, some restaurants don’t accept vouchers. These include McDonald’s, The Royal Pub, Starbucks, Earl of Sandwich, Five Guys, Brasserie Rosalie, Casa Giulia and Vapiano.

In table-service restaurants, the voucher covers a set menu chosen from a selection. This set menu includes at least a starter and a main course, or a main course and a dessert. In buffet restaurants, it covers the all-you-can-eat buffet and a soft drink. In quick-service restaurants, it’s a main course, a side and a soft drink. The kids’ menu adds a dessert.

I’d recommend booking your tables as soon as your stay is confirmed, on the app or the official website. If you’re staying at a partner hotel, you can book them up to 2 months ahead.

Only the Royal option includes character lunches and dinners. It’s only for Disneyland Hotel guests, who can also choose Signature. With Royal, each meal voucher can be used for a character lunch or dinner. It covers four restaurants: Auberge de Cendrillon, The Regal View Restaurant, Royal Banquet and La Table de Lumière.

With Essential, Extra or Signature, these meals aren’t included. You can still book them, but you pay the difference.

Character breakfast isn’t included in any option. You can add it for a supplement when you book your stay. That isn’t possible if you’ve chosen breakfast in the parks or at Disney Village. A breakfast voucher from your hotel is also accepted at character breakfast: you pay the difference. Either way, these meals must be booked in advance. I go through everything in my article on character dining.

Whichever plan you choose, it works the same way: the number of meals matches the number of nights booked, and you spread your vouchers across your stay as you like. The three plans fit around how you organise your days and how much time you want to spend on meals.

For arrivals up to 31 March 2027, half board and full board come in four options, from Standard to Premium, via Plus and Extra Plus. Breakfast only has no options: it’s a single plan. The option available depends on the hotel you book: the higher the hotel category, the wider the choice of restaurants. From April 2027, these options make way for Essential, Extra, Signature and Royal.

Your meal vouchers are loaded onto your MagicPass (your stay card, given to you at the hotel) when you arrive, on check-in day. At the restaurant, just show your MagicPass at the till to pay for your meal.

Your vouchers aren’t tied to a specific date. You can spread them as you like across your stay, as long as you use the total number before you leave. Nothing stops you, for example, from using two vouchers on the same day.

Good to know: with a meal plan, you can also eat at a non-eligible restaurant by paying the difference between its price and the value of your voucher.

For arrivals from 1 April 2027, it works the same way.

For arrivals up to 31 March 2027, the price depends on the plan and option you choose. It ranges from breakfast only (the most affordable) to Premium full board (the most expensive). Here’s the breakdown per person per night. For arrivals from April 2027, see the prices of the new meal plans above instead.

Half board includes breakfast plus one meal per night. The price goes up with the option (Standard, Plus, Premium). The Extra Plus option doesn’t exist with half board. Expect to pay €55 per adult per night for Standard.

Full board includes breakfast plus two meals per night. It’s available with all four options, including Extra Plus. Expect to pay €75 per adult per night for Standard, up to €245 for Premium.

Depending on your hotel, you’ll only have access to some of these options (see the options table above). For example, the Premium option is only available at the Disneyland Hotel, and the Extra Plus option at every hotel except that one.

The breakfast-only plan is priced by hotel. Its price is exactly what you’d pay on the spot, so it doesn’t save you anything. That changes for arrivals from April 2027. Booked in advance, breakfast at the hotel then costs up to 17% less than on the spot. To find out more, I go through everything in my guide to breakfast at Disneyland Paris.

It depends on the plan. With breakfast only, there’s no saving: the price is the same as paying on the spot. That changes for arrivals from April 2027. Booked in advance, breakfast at the hotel then costs up to 17% less than on the spot.

With half board and full board, it all depends on which restaurants you choose. They can be worth it if you’re aiming for all-you-can-eat buffet restaurants or table-service restaurants, with full meals: starter, main course and dessert. On the other hand, if you mostly eat at quick-service restaurants or have light meals, the plan can end up costing you more than paying on the spot. Do the same maths with the new meal plans.

My advice: before your trip, look at the menus and prices of the restaurants you’re interested in, then compare the cost with and without a plan. If you’re travelling on a tight budget, also take a look at eating cheaply at Disneyland Paris.

The table below applies to arrivals up to 31 March 2027. For arrivals from April 2027, look instead at what each new option includes.

You have breakfast at your Disney hotel. Your voucher is also accepted, up to its value, in some restaurants in the parks and at Disney Village that serve breakfast.

For lunch and dinner, you choose from all the restaurants in the parks (Disneyland Park and Disney Adventure World), all the Disney hotel restaurants and a selection of restaurants at Disney Village. Here are the main ones, by category. For the full details, see the best restaurants at Disneyland Paris. For arrivals from April 2027, see the restaurants for the new meal plans above instead.

At Disney Village, some restaurants accept meal plans, such as The Steakhouse and La Grange at Billy Bob’s. With building work under way in the Village, several venues are closed or being transformed: check what’s open at the time before you book.

Most quick-service restaurants and snack outlets in the parks also accept meal plans, for example Casey’s Corner, Cowboy Cookout Barbecue, Pizzeria Bella Notte or Toad Hall. The Extra Plus afternoon snack can be had at most snack outlets in the park (ice cream stands, pastry shops, cafés) and at some restaurants. The full, up-to-date list is on the official Disneyland Paris website.

Character meals are only included with the Extra Plus (one meal per stay) and Premium (as many as your vouchers allow) options. With Standard and Plus, they aren’t included, but you can use a voucher and pay a supplement. They’re served at Auberge de Cendrillon, The Regal View Restaurant, Royal Banquet and La Table de Lumière (the last two at the Disneyland Hotel). For arrivals from April 2027, only the Royal option includes character lunches and dinners. It’s only for Disneyland Hotel guests. I go through everything in my guide to character dining.

The guide to the new meal plans, for arrivals from April 2027, doesn’t mention the points below.
