Since its birth, Disney’s Magic Kingdom was known for not serving alcohol in any of its restaurants. That changed with the opening of Be Our Guest some years ago, and now is continuing as The Crystal Palace is now serving alcohol. Here is a look at its alcoholic drink offerings:
Beer
Bud Light – $7.25
Michelob Ultra – $7.75
Blue Moon – $7.75
Cigar City Jai Alai – $9.25
Wine
Domaine Ste. Michelle Brut – $9/$39
Fess Parker Riesling – $9/$39
Kenwood Sauvignon Blanc – $9/$39
Cambria ‘Benchbreak’ Chardonnay – $11/$49
MacMurray Estate Pinot Noir – $13/$55
J. Lohr ‘Seven Oaks’ Cabernet Sauvignon – $9/$39
Cocktails
Sangria – Kenwood Sauvignon Blanc with Pineapple Juice, Spice and Fruit – $10.25
The Crystal Palace isn’t the only new restaurant in Disney’s Magic Kingdom now serving alcohol, The Plaza Restaurant joins them today as well. It’s a vast difference from Walt’s original vision for Disneyland, which was for it to be a place where parents could bring their children without having to worry about people behaving badly because of getting drunk. That thinking has changed and now you can have alcohol in all of the Magic Kingdom’s table service restaurants: Be Our Guest, Liberty Tree Tavern, Tony’s Town Square Restaurant, Skipper Canteen and Cinderella’s Royal Table.
In my opinion it’s not a huge deal, because we’re talking about table service restaurants and not guests walking around the park with beer all day. I wouldn’t want it to turn into the bad scene that the Food and Wine Festival can be on weekends, but as of now I don’t think we’re heading that direction.

My name is Ziggy and I love Disney, everything Disney! I grew up on Disney and it has and continues to be a huge part of my life. I started young when my parents took me to Disney World when I was 18 months old. Little did they know that would be the first of an uncountable number of trips we would take. I have so many amazing memories going to Disney with my family and friends and it has been interwoven into my DNA.
