Heading to Disney World with the whole family can create some of the most magical moments. Bringing all the grandparents, cousins, and kiddos makes the best photos, but where will you eat with your entire family? Don’t worry — we have some suggestions!

Some Disney restaurants are better for larger parties, and we’ve compiled some of our favorites for your next family vacation.

Now with a large party, it’s especially important to have reservations! You can make them 60 days in advance in the My Disney Experience app. Reservations open at 6 AM Eastern Time, and yes, we do recommend setting an alarm. You can search for reservations for up to 20 people in the app — but if your party is THAT large (we’re talking 10+), we suggest you call Disney World at (407) WDW-DINE (that’s 407-939-3463) to ask about a reservation. We’ve had better luck with getting seating for larger parties that way — especially since the best arrangement is often two tables next to each other rather than a lengthy span worth of the Beast’s formal dining room.

Quick Service Restaurants
