Rainforest Cafe on DDP
As i was making my ADR's this morning i noticed that the Rainforest Cafe was an option on the DDP now, so i booked it. I don't remember hearing anything about it being added to the DDP though, so i'm second guessing myself as to whether this was an error on the site or it is actually on the DDP. Can someone please confirm either way. If it's not i will need to cancel and choose another restaurant. Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Where did you see this? Neither one is listed on the 2011 brochure.
ETA: The DTD one is listed on the Premium and Platinum Plans.

I found it on WDW website. Although the 2011 DDP does not show the Animal Kingdom Rainforest Cafe as being on the DP, the website shows it for the Premium and Platinum DP. See below:

Thank You. Looks like I'm going to have to cancel Rainforest Cafe and make another ADR.

I found this out the hard way... I had to change my lunch ADRs last week during my recent trip to WDW. The mobile website listed that Rainforest Cafe in DTD was on the DDP so I booked the ADR using the mobile website. Not until we were seated in the resturant did I find out that it was only the Premium and Platinum plans were accepted. I am glad I asked before ordering. This information may have been on the mobile website but if it was I did not noticed it.
BTW we left the resturant and walked over to the Saratoga Springs resort and ate lunch at the Turf Club Bar & Grill. Very good option!

HoosierDisneyFan .. i booked the adr online and it simply stated that ddp was accepted there. Had it not been for our helpful Intercotees, i would have assumed it was now on the dining plan and just shown up there for our adr. There should be some way to discern it from the regular ddp when booking online.

There actually is a way. When you are booking your reservation online, click on the "Book a reservation" button, and then the "View Dining Plan Information" link. This will show you what dining plan the restaurant participates in.

Just an FYI the Rainforest Cafe is not really a good value on the DDP. It usually averages $25-$30 per person. So paying OOP maybe a better option.

noticed all of this when making my reservations, but it leads to a great argument...why is the Rainforest Cafe only on the Premium plan, when all the other rest. that are so much better are not. Do you really think the Rainforest is premium anything? Love the atmosphere but come on..who do they think they are?

It has nothing to do with the the quality of the food or anything else. It has to do with the amount Disney gives to the restaurant per meal. My guess is they get enough to cover their costs and turn a profit with the amount they receive from the premium plan but not enough from the standard plan.

Interesting! Now I wonder if this would be the same case for T-Rex, since they are owned by the same company ... hi ho hi ho it's off to research I go!
