Quick Service Disney Dining Plan (DDP) Guide - by @parkhopwithamber

Hi! I’m Amber, owner of Maxie & Nova and the creator behind @parkhopwithamber. If you’re overwhelmed by the Disney Dining Plan and want to actually make it work in your favor, you’re in the right place.

This 32-page digital guide + video walkthrough breaks down exactly how to maximize the Disney Dining Plan across all four parks and Disney Springs, using a real-world, easy-to-follow strategy designed to help families save money and avoid wasted credits.

*NOTE - Order will be immediately emailed to you after purchase with a download link included from "Maxie & Nova" which is my brand (this) website! 

TWO OPTIONS - WITH ALCOHOL OR WITHOUT ALCOHOL - DON'T WORRY, BOTH MAXIMIZE EVERY SINGLE CREDIT :).

What This Guide Covers

• A full, park-by-park dining strategy so you know where to eat, what to order, and when to use your credits

• How to stretch your Dining Plan value instead of leaving money on the table

• Special considerations for Magic Kingdom, where Quick Service locations do not serve alcohol (for Alcohol Included Guide only)

How the Example Works

The guide uses a family of four as the primary example:

• 2 adults 

• 2 children ages 3–9 (free Disney Dining Plan in 2026)

In this example, we maximize:

• 20 Adult Meal Credits

• 20 Child Meal Credits

• 20 Snack Credits

✨ No credits left behind.

For each park, I outline suggested breakfast, lunch, snack, and dinner options, including:

• What we ordered in the example

• Approximate out-of-pocket cost

• How that compares to Dining Plan credit value

• Why certain choices deliver better value than others

Rather than listing every menu item, I highlight strategic picks and clearly mark which options were used in the example so you can adapt the approach to your own preferences.

Important Notes

• There are two versions. One that includes alcohol and one that does not. Please choose which one works best for you.

• Menus change, but the strategy stays relevant, even if you swap items

• You’ll still want to reference the My Disney Experience app for full menus
