Okay, first of all, are you sitting down? We have some HUGE news to share with you.
Something that has been missing since the pandemic has finally returned to Magic Kingdom and we are SO excited. Be Our Guest got a big change today, and we are taking you along with us to experience it!
Be Our Guest is located in Magic Kingdom and invites you for a dining experience inside of the Beast’s enchanted castle. The restaurant offers French-inspired fare with a prix fixe menu. We have some super exciting news to share with you about Be Our Guest!
It isn’t a menu change or decor update. In fact, we think this news is way better! The Beast had taken a break from meeting in his study ever since the pandemic, and instead could be found waltzing through the dining room. However, we learned that Be Our Guest just got a major change!
The Beast is now back to meeting guests in his study! When we heard the news, we had to check it out for ourselves. We joined the walk-up wait list and were being seated shortly after.
We were told that at the end of our meal we would be “invited” to the Beast’s study where he is meeting guests. Cast Members were saying that they are still testing out the meet and greet being in Beast’s study, and so far they were only confirming that he would be meeting there today. While we hope that this will be a permanent change, we do not know for sure that he will remain in his study.
After we finished our meal, we received this card from our server that includes the Beast’s signature and was our invitation to meet him in his study.
Now that we have our invitation, it is time to meet the Beast. We couldn’t contain our excitement as we lined up to meet him in his STUDY. No more trying to catch a picture of him as he roamed through the dining room.
There he is! He is looking handsome and we had such a great time getting to interact with him. We love that he may be moving back to the study permanently as the interaction is so much better in here.
However, Cast Members weren’t sure if he would be moving here permanently. We will be keeping an eye on this change at Be Our Guest, and let you know of any updates. All we know is that our hearts are so happy that you can once again meet the Beast in his study after your meal at Be Our Guest!

We attended be our guest August 22 and the beast is NOT meeting guests in his study.
Hi Ashley! You are correct. They were testing bringing it back in July so we got to experience it once again, but since then they have decided to discontinue the meeting in the Study, unfortunately. The Cast Members we spoke with weren’t sure when or if it would ever return.
I was hoping that the announcement was that quick service was back for lunch.
I was hoping for a change back to quick service for lunch! Sigh. I just don’t enjoy the current options – especially at lunch.
DITTO on changing the menu back. There is no way we will spend that much money on a meal that doesn’t give us more choices. We ate lunch here many times before the pandemic so I guess our memories will need to live on!
Great! Now bring back breakfast!
To be honest, I was hoping that the big news was going back to quick service for lunch. Maybe someday!
Personally I feel like the biggest change they could make is going back to something more akin to the fast casual lunch. It was far more appropriate for so many and I think the food was better at lunch, too!
Not that big a deal to us. Bring back a regularly priced menu!
Good news. Now they need to change from that darned prix fix menu to an a la carte one.
I agree! They need to go back to the way it was when they first opened. No price fixe and different choices for lunch and dinner.
