Read on for the full breakdown including the four new options, which restaurants are dropping out and whether a family of four pays more or less than before.
The current plans stay in place for arrivals up to 31st March 2027. In our quotes, the new lunch or dinner plans start at £28.53 per adult and £14.27 per child per night for Essential, and those prices are the same at every Disney Hotel and fixed for arrivals from 1st April 2027 to 31st March 2028. Disneyland Paris has published the details in its 2027 meal plan guide.
We've priced every option, breakfast at every Disney Hotel and the full restaurant list in our Disneyland Paris meal plans guide, and you can check the latest package prices with Disney Holidays for your own dates.
What Are The New Disneyland Paris Meal Plans?
From 1st April 2027 you build your plan in three steps. First you choose breakfast, then one or two meals per night, then one of four options. Each option includes every restaurant from the one below it plus a few more, and Royal is the only one with character dining included.
| Option | Who Can Book It | Restaurants | Adult Per Night (1 / 2 Meals) | Best Suited For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Essential | Every Disney Hotel except Disneyland Hotel | 18 | £28.53 / £53.50 | Families happy with buffets and quick-service |
| Extra | Every Disney Hotel except Disneyland Hotel | 25 | £37.45 / £71.34 | Buffet fans who want Pym Kitchen or Agrabah Café |
| Signature | Every Disney Hotel | 31 | £42.80 / £80.24 | Sit-down meals at Walt's, Captain Jack's or Bistrot Chez Rémy |
| Royal | Disneyland Hotel only | 35 | £80.25 / £151.58 | Disneyland Hotel guests who want character meals |
Prices from Disney Holidays quotes run on 25th September 2026. Child prices are roughly half the adult price. Check the latest prices before you book.
Breakfast is priced by hotel, from £16.50 per adult at Disney Hotel Santa Fe to £32.99 at Disneyland Hotel, or you can buy a £12.48 per person breakfast voucher for restaurants in the Disney Parks and Disney Village instead. Whatever you pick has to cover every night of your stay and everyone in your party aged 3 and over. The full breakdown of each option is in our meal plan guide, alongside Disney's own meal plans page.
How Do You Book The New Disneyland Paris Meal Plans?
Meal plans are only sold with a Disney Hotel and ticket package, and you can't buy one once you've arrived.
- Book a package arriving on or after 1st April 2027. You can book with Disney Holidays or DisneylandParis.com.
- Choose your breakfast. Pick hotel breakfast, the Disney Parks and Disney Village option, or none.
- Choose 1 or 2 meals per night. One gives you lunch or dinner, two gives you both.
- Pick your option. Choose Essential, Extra, Signature or Royal, depending on your hotel.
- Reserve your tables. Link your booking in the Disneyland Paris app and book restaurants as soon as your stay is confirmed, as a meal plan doesn't guarantee a table.
If you've already booked a 2027 stay, you can add a meal plan by calling Disney Holidays on 0800 169 0737 at least 8 days before you arrive.
What's Changing From The Old Meal Plans?
The biggest change is that breakfast and lunch or dinner are separated. The old Breakfast Only, Half Board and Full Board plans bundled breakfast in, while the new system lets you skip it or buy it on its own.
Your hotel also stops deciding your plan. Under the current system a Disney Hotel Santa Fe stay put you on Standard, with a Plus upgrade only on full board. From 1st April 2027 a Santa Fe guest can book Signature and eat at Walt's or Bistrot Chez Rémy.
A few things disappear along the way. Full board used to throw in an extra lunch or dinner voucher per person on your last day, and the new plans don't. Table-service meals drop from three courses to at least two, and drinks only come with buffet and quick-service meals. Extra Plus, with its character meal and daily snack and drink vouchers, has no replacement.
At Disneyland Hotel, Royal takes over from Premium. Every lunch or dinner voucher can still be used for a character meal at Auberge de Cendrillon, Royal Banquet, La Table de Lumière or The Regal View, but the adult drinks that Premium included with table-service and buffet meals are gone.
Which Restaurants Are Dropping Off The Meal Plans?
Casey's Corner is the one that'll sting. The Main Street U.S.A. hot dog stop takes meal plan vouchers on plans for arrivals up to 31st March 2027, but it's on Disney's list of 35 excluded places for arrivals from 1st April 2027. Last Chance Café, Toad Hall Restaurant and Market House Deli are on the same list, even though the old terms said vouchers could be used for their cash value in all Disney Park restaurants.
In Disney Village, the list grows beyond the usual McDonald's, Rainforest Cafe, Five Guys and Starbucks. The 2027 terms add Giulia Express, Häagen-Dazs Gaumont, Le Comptoir Rosalie, Les Chalets Gourmands, Petite Rosalie and Super Diner, along with Casa Giulia, which opens at the end of 2026. Every excluded restaurant is listed in our full meal plan guide.
Are The New Disneyland Paris Meal Plans Cheaper?
It depends how much you eat. We priced the old and new plans on the same Disney Holidays bookings for two adults and two children on a 2-night stay, including hotel breakfast.
| Old Plan (Total) | New Setup (Total) | Difference | Lunch And Dinner Vouchers (Old / New) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Half Board Standard, Santa Fe £324.00 | Breakfast + Essential 1 meal £290.68 | £33.32 less | 8 / 8 |
| Full Board Standard, Santa Fe £428.00 | Breakfast + Essential 2 meals £440.44 | £12.44 more | 20 / 16 |
| Full Board Extra Plus, Santa Fe £816.00 | Breakfast + Signature 2 meals £600.92 | £215.08 less | 20 / 16 |
| Full Board Premium, Disneyland Hotel £1,352.00 | Breakfast + Royal 2 meals £1,148.48 | £203.52 less | 20 / 16 |
Two adults and two children aged 3 to 11, 2 nights, from Disney Holidays quotes run on 25th September 2026. Restaurant lists differ between old and new plans, so treat this as a price comparison only.
Half board eaters come out ahead with the same number of vouchers. Full board eaters on Essential pay £12.44 more for four fewer vouchers, and the big savings against Extra Plus and Premium come from losing the character meal, snack and drink vouchers and adult drinks those plans included. Every old and new combination is compared in our meal plan guide.

What Do The New Meal Plans Mean For UK Families?
Because meal plan prices are fixed for the whole year and the same at every Disney Hotel, there's nothing to gain by waiting for a better meal plan price. The number that moves is the room, which follows the Disneyland Paris price calendar, so that's where timing your booking pays off.
If you're travelling by Eurostar, the route is London St Pancras to Lille Europe with a connecting TGV to Marne-la-Vallée-Chessy, and Disney Holidays can package that with your hotel and meal plan. DisneylandParis.com sells hotel and ticket packages without travel, and our Disney Holidays vs DisneylandParis.com comparison covers which suits you.
Here's what the change means for your booking.
- Families who liked Extra Plus or the extra full board voucher can still get them by arriving on or before 31st March 2027.
- Guests at Disney Hotel Santa Fe or Disney Hotel Cheyenne can book Signature for table-service restaurants without upgrading their room.
- A family of four at Disney Hotel New York - The Art of Marvel saves £74.92 over two nights by choosing the Disney Parks and Disney Village breakfast instead of the hotel buffet.
- Anyone who grabbed a Casey's Corner hot dog on the meal plan will need to budget for it separately from April 2027.
