On this put up, I’m sharing all in regards to the meals on the Disney Want, from theme dinners to the informal breakfast and lunches at Marceline Market. For those who missed it, take a look at my general Disney Cruise overview.
I’ll admit that I board a cruise ship with mediocre expectations for meals. I’ve been on a handful of cruises in my life and whereas the meals is at all times good, it’s hardly ever nice. My general impression of the meals on our Disney Cruise ranged from good to nice. I didn’t have something I didn’t like. Right here’s an summary of our themed dinners and informal breakfasts and lunches on the Disney Want.
Disney Want Meals
Not like cruises I’ve accomplished up to now, the best factor a few Disney cruise is the rotating eating rooms. As a substitute of going to the identical eating room on the identical desk each evening with maybe a altering menu, you bought three totally different eating rooms over the course of the cruise, every with a really totally different theme. On the Want, the themes have been Twenties, Marvel, and Frozen. I believe I loved the eating expertise in 1923 essentially the most however the different two themes have been actually enjoyable. You’ll be able to see all of the eating choices on the Disney web site right here. I also needs to point out that my sister is gluten-free and so they had gluten-free choices at each cease – she simply typically needed to ask for them.
Eating Time
One factor to notice: There are two eating seatings to accommodate everybody, one at 5:45 and one at 8:15. After we booked our cruise (fairly far prematurely I’d add), the one eating time left was 8:15! We knew with three children beneath 10 that this time was not going to work. Even the adults thought it could be a wrestle. We have been on a waitlist for five:45 and have been SO THRILLED when our eating time was up to date just a few hours previous to the primary dinner. If we had had 8:15 we’d have had a completely totally different eating expertise. So grateful they may accommodate our massive group on the early seating.

Dinner in 1923
We had our first two nights at 1923. This was a fantastic project for 2 nights in a row because it was not overly themed. We LOVED having fancy bourbon cocktails. And I really like the Twenties normally, so this was my private favourite theme. The eating room is adorned with unique props from Disney motion pictures akin to a bust from the Little Mermaid and animation sketches.
The youngsters had a special exercise guide every evening that saved them busy for the primary quarter-hour or so. Another excuse Disney is so child pleasant! Additionally they had children cups with lids and introduced all their drink requests. The following evening those self same drinks have been already ready on the desk! The youngsters menu was in depth and had loads of child fare plus some extras for extra adventuresome eaters. Mazen, age 12, ordered with the grownups and loved lobster and steak!
Burrata and Prosciutto
LOVED this app! The burrata was perfection, and I liked the toffee seed cracker and candied orange. I additionally had an Previous Usual drink particular with maple and bacon!

This one was barely underwhelming because of being very vegetable ahead, however I liked the cheese and candied nuts.
Filet Mignon to kick off the journey!
Dessert
I don’t even keep in mind what this was, but it surely was a cloud of vanilla! I liked it and all of the little bites behind it.
1923 Evening Two
The following evening we have been assigned 1923 once more which was positive with me! We additionally had the identical service group the entire cruise – they got here with us to Marvel and Arendelle, too! It was beautiful to get to know them and have them know us.
I began evening two with a Boulevardier!
It got here with a chocolate topper.
Seafood Sampler
The menu typically had a seafood medley as an appetizer with smoked salmon, marinated shrimp, chilled tuna, and so on. This one was delish!

I had sea bass with celeriac puree and parsnip plus some form of sea broccoli! This wasn’t my favourite (fish is tough to do in bulk!) however I’m not overly choosy so I loved!
Caramel Sundae
We discovered that the sundaes have been typically one of the best desserts, and this caramel sundae was my favourite dessert of the journey!
Blissful New Yr!
World of Marvel
Evening three was Marvel themed! The eating room was very fashionable in distinction to 1923, and there have been screens throughout that instructed a narrative about our ship and Marvel characters – I don’t even keep in mind who they have been as a result of I’m not a lot of a Marvel fan! However the devices on our desk lit up, and Mazen bought a extremely cool particular drink in a single.
Wedge Salad
Beef Tenderloin

For those who didn’t catch the trace, it was additionally pirate evening! The ship supplied pirate bandanas for everybody in our staterooms, and a few individuals introduced equipment. Different individuals have been dressed to the nines pirate! Poor Birch, we didn’t know to deliver all his costumes. 🙁

There was additionally music and singing in the course of the room. Sadly, we didn’t have a fantastic view however we might hear nicely. Our servers sang with us, too!

Informal Eating
For breakfasts and lunches, you may go to a eating room or one of many informal spots to eat. We ended up doing informal for all, however my sister and her group did the formal breakfast just a few occasions. There have been two choices for informal: Mickey & Mates Pageant of Meals (on the pool deck with stations by class) and Marceline Market. We had tacos and pizza on the pool deck the primary day, however in any other case at in Marceline or on shore on an island.

Marceline Market
For adults, there have been stations all through, and I liked that the employees served you so I didn’t have to the touch different individuals’s germs! Even the silverware got here wrapped up in a bundle vs. an enormous container everybody was touching. That they had a fantastic number of meals and loads of it was very wholesome!
I LOVED the youngsters counter at Marceline! It was low to the bottom so the youngsters might see, and so they had a fantastic number of child pleasant favorites, from Mickey waffles to hen tenders to little veggie cups.
Salmon salad with candy potato fries
The salad was pre-made to seize off the station, and I liked it! You would add any protein on prime (Mazen dwelling his greatest life consuming jello!).

Breakfast
I typically had eggs (their eggs have been so good!), muesli, fruit and typically a donut or pastry for breakfast.
Additionally they had little smoothies like this mango one right here. You’ll be able to see Mickey waffles within the background! Additionally, loads of pancakes with buttermilk, chocolate chips, blueberries, and so on for the youngsters.
The Disney Want meals was general excellent!! I left happy and full each evening – in all probability too full!! Even with my try at together with salads and lighter meals into my days. I liked that the informal meals have been served in stations somewhat buffet-style to reduce germs. I’d give the Disney Want meals a 9/10!
