Dining Plan - Does 2 years old get her own meal?

[lucincia]

We'll be having the dining plan on our next Disney trip. Does our 2 years old eat off our plates or can she order small portions from the kid's menu? The CM says the "baby' eats free, but I forgot to ask if this is scavenging off our plates or having her own food (like Holiday Inn)

Thanks in advance for your help!

She can have her own plate and eat whatever she wants at buffets and family style meals, or she can eat from your plate at meals where you order from a menu. If you order her her own meal at one of these places, you have to pay out of pocket.

We just went in August. Our party included me, DW, DS9, DD6, and DD18 mo. Since our youngest was not on the dining plan, she had to eat off of our plate at the sit down restaurants. We usually ordered her a drink. Some places charged for the drink others did not. It all depends on the server.

I did take my daughter to a CRT breakfast while on the dining plan. They gave her complimentary french toast sticks and juice.

No matter what, there should be plenty of food.
