But over the years, we've splurged on character meals for a few big occasions: a first trip, a family reunion, a birthday and most recently, an anniversary. There have been plenty of trips where we've packed meals into the parks or stuck to quick service. It's certainly not an everyday, or even every trip, treat. The answer is subjective, but it's worth it for my family.

For example, Akershus Royal Banquet Hall only offers dinner, which costs $39 per child and $65 per adult. In general, breakfast offers the best bang for the buck, but not every character dining venue serves it. Guests should note that only kids ages 3 to 9 qualify for child pricing. Disney counts anyone 10 and up as an adult for meals and park tickets. How much does it cost to eat with Disney characters?Ĭharacter dining starts at $27 for kids and $42 for "adults" at Hollywood & Vine, but every other venue charges more, so bills can easily balloon above $100.
