A Quick Bite At Auberge

Today's quick bite is a little more upmarket than usual - and probably should be more than just a quick bite. It is the beautiful Auberge de Cendrillon situated near the Castle in Fantasyland. It is a gourmet dining experience with a French menu, in a beautiful cosy and elegant setting.

Translated as Cinderella's Country Inn, the restaurant serves elegant French country-style cuisine, making the guest feel like they are dining the in 18th century. In a way, it feels like one has stepped into the world of Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella. Dishes include risotto, steaks, duck pate and salmon, as well as some more 'regular' dishes. There is a set menu for adults and children, and one of the best wine lists of all the Disney restaurants (Parc Disneyland is a licensed park, unlike the other Magic Kingdoms, due to the French and European culture).
The restaurant can be very busy, so it is usually a better idea to book in advance. It is opened every day during the high season, and mostly closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays during the quieter months. Lunch regularly stops about 4pm and dinner is served from 5.30pm.
