Save Goofy’s Liberate Your Appetite Character Dinner Liberty Tree Tavern

Goofy’s Liberate Your Appetite Character Dinner is a popular Character Dining experience located at Liberty Tree Tavern in the Magic Kingdom park, a part of Walt Disney World Resort in Central Florida.

Disney describes it as a chance to "Liberate your appetite! [and] Show your "Character" by joining Minnie and her friends dressed in their finest Revolutionary War-era garb — as you band together for a revolutionary dinner feast. Your Mouse hostess invites you to enjoy a hearty American meal of roasted turkey, marinated flank steak and other colonial favorites with all the trimmings. Make your declaration to eat here!" In addition to Minnie and Goofy, Pluto, Chip and Dale are in attendance each night.

As of January 2009 Disney plans to discontinue Goofy's Liberate Your Appetite Character Dinner. This is a surprising move as Goofy's Liberate Your Appetite Character Dinner is the only Character Dining experience in the Magic Kingdom park that you can dine with the “Traditional” Disney Characters from Disney's first cartoon shorts. It is also a very popular and successful Dining Experience that many have made into a family tradition. At this time no replacement Character Dining Experience is planned.

This will not only have an affect on the Characters and Cast Members at Liberty Tree Tavern but will also negatively affect the guest. Currently, it is planned to not change the menu or price for Dinner at Liberty Tree. This is a negative for the guest because not only are they paying for the same price for a lessened experience but they are also losing the only Dining Experience with the "traditional" Disney Characters.

This will also negatively affect the servers as the main selling point for Dinner is the World Famous Disney Characters. This could result in lower attendance with less income to the service team. This could be another potential blow to their standard of living when mixed with the new Disney Dinning Plan.
