Beauty and The Beast
Beauty and the Beast is a popular animated film from Walt Disney Pictures. Be our guest is a catchy song from Beauty and the Beast. However, did you know that Be Our Guest is also a sit-down restaurant at the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World?
New Fantasyland
In September 2009, it was announced at the D23 Expo that Fantasyland would be expanded to incorporate Disney Princess characters, along with a larger 3 ring circus-themed Dumbo area. Included is a new area themed to Disney’s Beauty and the Beast featuring the Beast’s Castle with a new dining experience, Gaston’s tavern, and Belle’s cottage.
The restaurant was added as part of a large expansion and renovation to Fantasyland. It opened in late 2012, and the rest of Fantasyland was completed in 2014. “The New Fantasyland was constructed in phases with most of the new experiences opened by 2013.
Be Our Guest Restaurant
The restaurant is set in the Beast’s castle. The castle features a full table service restaurant at night, and provides counter service dining by day, both requiring reservations. The cuisine is French-inspired. Three dining rooms are located within the castle, including the ballroom where Belle and the Beast danced, the West Wing where the rose is kept, and a gallery with paintings and a 7′ wooden music box depicting Belle and Beast.
The restaurant was the only place in the Magic Kingdom to serve wine and beer prior to December 23, 2016, when additional restaurants at the Magic Kingdom added it to their menus. Originally, Be Our Guest was a location for lunch and dinner. On March 20, 2015, Be Our Guest Restaurant began to serve breakfast meals featuring foods such as eggs florentine and an open-faced-egg-and-poached-bacon sandwich.
