Be Our Guest Restaurant at Magic Kingdom

Be Our Guest Restaurant is a table-service dining experience located in Beast’s Castle at Magic Kingdom. It opened its doors in 2012 and has quickly become one of the most popular dining options at the park.

If there is one restaurant in Magic Kingdom you should experience it is this one!

While Be Our Guest is one of the more expensive restaurants in the park due to its fixed-price menu, we think it that it is worth the cost for such an immersive dining experience.

Be Our Guest Dining Options

This restaurant is set inside Beast’s Castle & from the time you enter the castle, you will feel like you’ve stepped right into the animated classic Beauty & the Beast.

If you are a fan of Beauty and the Beast, you won’t want to miss out on having dinner here.

Inside Beast’s Castle

Inside the castle is just as elaborate as outside.

The first thing you will notice are two minotaurs who welcome guests at the front entrance of the restaurant.

Their design was inspired by animated footage from the “Beauty and The Beast” film, specifically the scene in which Belle enters the castle for the first time.

But before you enter the restaurant, take time to walk down the hall to your right. It is flanked by suits of armor.

While the suits of armor may look like props, if you walk up to them, you will hear some of them having conversations and others, sleeping.
