What restaurants include milkshakes as your drink on the DDP? I am specifically curious about 50's Prime Time, Sci-Fi Diner and Beaches and Cream. Thanks!

Sci Fi did this for us in June. I was expecting them to count it as dessert but the server said it would be a beverage. I can see this going either way, so I would just ask at each place. So often its up to the mood of the server! But for sure, you can sub it for a dessert. I have done that at PT several times.

I've done this at PTC and WCC and it seems to be policy. They don't allow 'specialty drinks' but shakes anywhere they have them.

We were able to get them at Sci Fi and WCC on the dining plan last month. The ones at Sci Fi however are not 'bottom less'. If you want a refill, our server told us the refill would be counted as your dessert. We passed on that! WCC offers unlimited refills.

We got milkshakes as our DDP beverage at The Wave restaurant in the Contemporary in September 2008. Don't know if they were "bottomless" because they were in a tall glass we never finished anyway...too full. We had the chocolate shakes, and they topped them with whip cream...yum.

Sci Fi does it! My server offered it to us. Noone else did but I didn't ask for them either.

thanks everyone! I usually can't drink more than one anyway so not as concerned with "bottomless. Trying to do some DDP math and wanted to be clear on this. I appreciate all the info. :)

How about at Plaza? Are they considered part of the DDP there as well?

Sci-Fi offers shakes as a drink & dessert option for the Adult dining plan. The kids dining plan they are offered as dessert only. Le Cellier also offers shakes & smoothies on the Adult dining plan (not sure about kids) & are non-refillable at either restaurant. Both places have really good shakes & the mango smoothie at Le Cellier is yummy!

LeCellier offers shakes for the kids dining plan. DD got one and it was good.

My daughter was able to get shakes at Sci Fi and WCC on the Childs dining plan for no additional cost (as her drink, not dessert). It might be one of those situations where it depends on the server.

Oooh, good question, glad to know this! I hadn't even thought of shakes being counted as your beverage, guess I assumed they were an "extra". :)

I'm glad to know that because in Belgium, there aren't milk-shakes in restaurants :goodvibes . So I'll try in USA to drink milk with fries! :woohoo:

Our dd got a shake as her drink at Sci Fi as part of the kids meal. So did the kids beside us (who had a different waitress). They brought her a bottle of water as well. We got glasses of water but the waitress said kids get a bottle of water.

Whispering Canyon Cafe
Sci Fi
Le Cellier (also their non-alcoholic smoothies)

Note: at Le Cellier, on the DELUXE PLAN, your children are not forced to order from the children's menu, they can order from regular menu if they so choose.

Ordering off of the adult menu (when there is a children's menu available) is against the posted guidelines of the DDP and the Deluxe dining plan. You are also the only person that I have heard of who has been able to do this.

I would take that as pixie dust and not a set in stone rule. (Especially since it's in direct contradiction of the posted rules)

Glad they were able to spread a little pixie dust for you at LeCellier. Considering it's one of the best values for a paying adult on the plan - you hit the jackpot using a child's credit for an adult meal there! :goodvibes

Can anyone confirm (at any restaurant, but particularly Sci-Fi) that if you are able to get a milkshake as your beverage, that you are also able to get a dessert? Maybe this was answered, but I didn't see it. :confused3

Yes, at Sci Fi 3 weeks ago we all got a shake as our beverage (including the kids meal) and we all got dessert. The waitress also brought adults a glass of water and our dd got a small bottle of water at no charge.

Awesome. That's exactly what I needed (and wanted ;) ) to hear. Not that we should be eating a collective pound of ice cream for lunch, but they have other desserts so it's all good. Thanks again! :cool1:
