Disney Magic Main Dining Rooms
Disney Cruise Line features a rotational dining program where you enjoy dinner in a different restaurant each night of your cruise. Your waiter moves along with you on each night. Each restaurant has a unique personality, and this innovative program is something that fans of Disney Cruise Line particularly enjoy. The three main restaurants onboard Disney Magic are Lumiere's, Parrot Cay, and the Animator's Palate.
Breakfast is served from 8:30am to 9:30am, and lunch is from 11:30am to 1:30pm -- breakfast and lunch are open seating. Main seating for dinner is from 5:30pm to 6:00pm, and second seating is from 8:00pm to 8:30pm. Given the unique nature of Disney Cruise Line's rotational dining system, they do not offer a flexible dining option where you can show up at any time during the dinner hours.
