Photo Tour of Be Our Guest Restaurant With Quick Serve Areas!

15 October 2012 by Suzannah Otis 3 Comments

Be Our Guest Restaurant

Over the weekend, you may have seen the buzz about the Magic Kingdom’s New Fantasyland opening up with a “Dress Rehearsal” of its completed areas. I’ll have many more photos to come if you missed some of my Instagrams on Twitter or Facebook, but I thought I’d start with some of the Be Our Guest Restaurant, since it is such a highly anticipated new dining location and boy, does it live up to its hype as far as appearances go.

The Walt Disney Imagineers have done an amazing job of bringing the classic Beauty and the Beast animated movie we all know and love, to life. We see familiar creatures and architectural details as well as some new interpretation of how Beast’s home would look. The details and tiny surprises are just perfect and will provide hours of enjoyment as something new is discovered each visit.

Be Our Guest Restaurant opens to the public on November 19. You can find menu info and more over at The Disney Food Blog.

 

See the wonder for yourself:

A hunched gargoyle offers a sharp contrast to the beautiful waterfall and vistas behind him. All part of the amazing envelopment into the Beast’s enchanted castle area.

 

New Fantasyland
The mountains and cascading waterfall are just breathtaking.

These windows flanking the front doors are really the only stained glass in the restaurant, but it casts a lovely glow as the sun streams in.

I absolutely love this interior window in the entryway, which offers a lovely view of the elegant hallway inside the “ballroom” of the dining area. One of my favorite details.

The ballroom does not disappoint with its chandeliers and windows to the snowy French mountainside (yes, it’s really snowing back there!)

The Belle and Beast mosaic tile work in this alcove is a perfect photo opportunity, and ties in with the mosaics inside the Cinderella Castle walkway down the road a piece.

 

I hope you enjoyed the photo tour, I’ll have many more photos of New Fantasyland to come in the next few days. The photos above are free to share, but if you do, please provide a link back to zannaland.com. Thank you!

About Suzannah Otis

A child of the 80's, Zanna climbed trees and roller-skated till the streetlights came on. She sipped her her first iced coffee at age 10 and never looked back. Growing up outside of Boston, all of these things shaped her life, as did the original EPCOT Center, which brought her where she is today.

Zanna is the mother of 2 adult humans, a 13-year old (also human), and 6 (yes, 6) cats. She is also the wife to one husband, who lovingly puts up with all of the above. Zanna tries to find that one little spark in everything, and thanks you very much for taking the time to read this.

    Interesting how they’ve combined the cursed version of the castle (the minotaur statues) with the uncursed version (the mosaic of Belle and the Prince). Can’t wait to see it for myself. Great details — and I love the armor in the Quick Serve hall!

    Thank you very much for sharing these photos. It was fun to see all of the detail Disney has put into the new restaurant. I’m looking forward to checking it out when it opens.
