The Holidays are almost here, and Disney World’s uber-popular Cake Bake Shop Restaurant has confirmed the return of its annual “Dinner With Santa” events. That’s right, people. SANTA CLAUS IS COMIN’ TO TOWN!
Scheduled for November 18th, November 25th, December 2nd, and December 9th, the event offers a festive evening filled with sparkling cocktails and Champagne, hors d’oeuvres, dinner, dessert, and a gift to take home, as well as the main event: a family photo and visit with Santa!
The evening features an exclusive three-course menu with beverages, a charcuterie hors d’oeuvre, an entrée choice of Roasted Chicken, Beef Bourguignon, or Roasted Leek pasta, and a choice of seasonal dessert. And one thing about the food at the Cake Bake Shop Restaurant? You know it’s gonna be GOOD!
Wanna know how we know? We’ve only dined there a TON of times since it opened. Here’s our most recent meal, where you can see the plating is ON POINT.

Look at that spread!
The children’s menu offerings include beverages, an hors d’oeuvre offering of Grilled Cheese Bites, an entree choice of Chicken Tenders, Cavatappi & Cheese, or Cheeseburger Sliders, and a choice of seasonal dessert. There’s something for everyone!
Included with your visit, each family will be able to share their “Holiday Pixie Glitter Wishes” with Santa Claus and take a family photograph, which will be available to download through PhotoPass. Finally, each family will also receive a handmade sugar cookie in the shape of Cake Bake Shop’s Bubbles the Bear, as well as all the ingredients you need to make a cookie of your own.
Think of this like a VIP version of the other Santa meet-and-greets you can find elsewhere around Disney World. Sure, you may catch Santa in Disney Springs, but here, you get a whole MEAL, too!
