Annual Passholder Dining Discounts Are Coming to Walt Disney World This Summer

If you’re anything like me, dining is one of the most important parts of a Disney vacation. Whether it’s indulging in a fancy table-service meal, hitting up a character buffet, or grabbing something quick in between Lightning Lane return times, food is half the magic. So when Disney throws us a bone—er, steak—with some juicy dining discounts, you better believe I’m paying attention.

This summer, Walt Disney World Annual Passholders are in for a tasty treat during V.I.PASSHOLDER Summer Days, with 40% off select table-service restaurants on select days. That’s not a typo. Forty. Percent. Off.

Let’s break down what’s on the menu and where you can save this summer.


Dine & Save: May 14 – June 30, 2025

Valid Monday through Thursday only

  • Boatwright’s Dining Hall – We haven’t been here in a few years, but this might be the nudge we needed to head back to Port Orleans Riverside.
  • Cape May Cafe (Dinner Only) – I swore this one off… but Amy loves it, so maybe this is the perfect excuse to give it another shot.
  • Hollywood & Vine – Believe it or not, I’ve never stepped foot in here. That might have to change this summer.
  • Toledo – Tapas, Steak & Seafood – Say less. Any excuse to hang out at Coronado Springs, I’m in.
  • Tusker House Restaurant (Lunch & Dinner Only) – Sad breakfast isn’t included, but lunch and dinner with safari vibes still sounds like a win.

Dine & Save: July 1 – July 31, 2025

Valid Monday through Thursday only

  • Ale & Compass Restaurant (Breakfast & Lunch Only) – A quiet spot over at Yacht Club. Solid breakfast? Count me in.
  • Coral Reef Restaurant – I’ve honestly never had a bad meal here. Fish watching while you eat is a bonus.
  • The Diamond Horseshoe – Technically never been… but if you’re getting Liberty Tree Tavern food for almost half the price, why not?
  • Tiffins Restaurant – A perfect break in the middle of your Animal Kingdom day. Plus, you might spot a few Nomad Lounge regulars here.
  • Whispering Canyon Cafe – You know what this means… bring on the ketchup!

Know Before You Go

  • Discounts are valid Monday through Thursday only during the dates above.
  • Dine-in only and limited to Passholders + up to 3 guests.
  • Discount does not apply to alcohol, tax, or gratuity.
  • Be sure to show your Annual Pass in the My Disney Experience app along with a valid photo ID.
  • Reservations are strongly recommended, and availability can be limited.
  • Theme park admission and a park reservation may be required, unless you’re visiting after 2:00 PM or on a “good-to-go” day.

You can find the full details and the latest updates on the official Disney site here, but the short version? Plan ahead, bring your appetite, and don’t forget your Annual Pass!


Between these delicious discounts and all the exciting summer offerings already on the way, it’s shaping up to be a great season for Passholders. I’d imagine you’ll be seeing some DVC Fan dining reviews from a few of these locations very soon… for “research purposes,” of course.
