Can 10 year old order from kid's menu no dining plan?

If we are not on the dining plan, can my 10 year old daughter order from the kids menu?

Yes. My 10 yr old only ate off the kids menu on our last trip (Thanksgiving). When my DD17 and DS15 were younger, they also ordered off the kids menu - probably until they were 12 or 13.

Usually, yes. There have been reports that the restaurants that are not owned by Disney, like La Hacineda, are not as agreeable.

Good to know, thanks. She is a mac and cheese, pizza, pasta eater and does not have a sophisticated palate! My 12 year old, on the other hand, costs us a fortune in food!

Typically, everyone can order off the children's menu. Adults may or may not get the drink and/or dessert that's included for children.

The dining plan is largely irrelevant to the question. Again, anyone can order from the children's menu. If you're redeeming an adult meal credit, they'll likely offer to make an adult-sized portion of the child's entree. Or, it may make more sense to pay out of pocket and save that adult credit for later.

Some folks have reported problems in Mexico and Italy at Epcot, and the non-Disney owned places at Animal Kingdom.
