Walt Disney World Dining Guide - Disney's Hollywood Studios

The Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida has a plethora of dining options to choose from.  With a little pre-planning going a long way to a great vacation, it helps to know what is available at each park, Disney Springs and the resorts.  We hope this guide for Disney's Hollywood Studios will help you see through some of the noise and determine what you might want to put on your vacation agendas for meals and snacks!

Types of Dining Establishments

Table Service Restaurants: You sit at a table and are served by a server (traditional restaurant experience.) We highly recommend advance dining reservations for table service restaurants, which can be made 60 days in advance of your trip.

Table Service restaurants are sometimes broken down farther by:

• Signature Dining - These restaurants will be a more upscale experience, often have a dress code and a higher average check
• 
  Character Dining - These experiences are often buffets, family style or prix fixe, and will have characters visit your table throughout your meal.  Visit our blog post here to learn more about character dining.
• Dining Experience - These are family style and include a show with your meal!

Lounges: These locations are smaller and focus on the drink and atmosphere.  Many offer snacks and small bites in addition to their beverage menus. They typically do not take reservations but are quite popular and can have a bit of a wait.

Quick Service Restaurants: You order or pickup your food from a counter and do not have a dedicated server.  If Mobile Order is available through the My Disney Experience app, it will usually save time and headache to use this service and just pick up your food and find a table when it is ready.

Carts and Kiosks: These are small little spots throughout Disney with very limited menu options.  You just hop in line and place your order and get your food right then and there.  There isn't always seating nearby, so keep your eyes peeled! 

*Please note, that while some places are listed as Quick Service on the Walt Disney World website, we categorize them as a Cart or Kiosk due to limited menu selection, seating or hours.
