Only Disney World Experts Know About These 4 Hidden Hotel Restaurants

When it comes to dining at Disney World, there are endless possibilities!

Whether you want to grab a quick bite at a quick service location or sit down at a restaurant, there are truly so many choices. And they aren’t just limited to restaurants in the parks, either. There are so many great options to choose from in the resorts!

We’ve all heard of a lot of the popular restaurants in Disney resorts, for example– Steakhouse 71, ‘Ohana, and California Grill, just to name a few. While we love them, there are so many other options to choose from. We will always make time for our old favorites, but sometimes you need to try something new. Here are 4 of our favorite hidden hotel restaurants for you to try on your next trip!

Cape May Café at Disney’s Beach Club Resort

The Cape May Café is an often overlooked restaurant with delicious offerings. They begin the day with an all-you-care-to-enjoy character dining breakfast, featuring Minnie Mouse and friends who are ready to hit the beach! They have the iconic breakfast offerings like Mickey waffles, seasoned potatoes, scrambled eggs and more!

Quincy, Emma, DFB Dustin and DFB Cassie recently stopped by Cape May Cafe for breakfast, and you can watch their video right here.

But that’s not all this restaurant has to offer! They also offer an all-you-care-to-enjoy dinner. While this meal doesn’t include any characters, it is still delicious and worth a visit. The dinner menu consists of some surf-and-turf delights, like clams, peel-n-eat shrimp, oven-roasted lemon chicken and more!

Story Book Dining at Artist Point at Wilderness Lodge

Heigh ho, it’s off to Wilderness Lodge we go! This restaurant is only available for dinner, and it is so worth it!

Dahlia Lounge at Coronado Springs

This is a lounge that we don’t think is talked about enough. It is a rooftop lounge at the Coronado Springs resort that serves Spanish style food and drinks — and it is delicious.
