Truly Old-Fashioned Dinner Theater
That said, there's much to enjoy and be amazed by - the choreography of the fights, the skill of the horses. It's a great night out with the family (particularly if you have knights and princesses of your own) or with a group of rowdy friends.
The Story
Eating at the Times
Guests feast on garlic bread, tomato bisque soup, roasted chicken, spare rib, herb-basted potatoes, pastry of the Castle, coffee and two rounds of select beverages. A full-service bar is also available for adult guests. Vegetarian meals are available upon request. Vegetarian meal includes tomato bisque soup, garlic bread, large portobello mushroom cap stuffed with whole grain, rice and bean blend, large skewer of roasted vegetables, hummus with pita chips, pastry of the castle and two rounds of select beverages.
Waging Battle
The castle sets the tone before you even go inside.

Castles open 90 minutes prior to show time, and there's a lot to see and do in the lobby, like the torture museum or photo ops. The show lasts approximately two hours. The schedule of show times varies by season and may be subject to change. Admission price includes the show, dinner and two rounds of select beverages. Ticket prices vary at each Castle. Here in Dallas, it's $52 for adults and $37 for children, but there are often coupons in the paper that can get the kids in for free.

About the Horses
Training begins early. As weanlings, the horses are introduced to lead ropes and halters, followed by saddles at age two. Long reigns and simple exercises like lunging follow. At age three, the horses go to their new homes at one of MT's North American castles, where they learn advanced-level dressage from a master horse trainer. Then life as a pampered performer begins. After several years in the spotlight, the magnificent steeds retire to live out their lives in comfort and serenity at Chapel Creek Ranch.

I went in Myrtle Beach, SC. Lots of fun, but a little intense for really young children.

We have one here in Southern California (Buena Park) but I haven't been yet. When my boys get just a little bit older I will definitely take them. Will be back to refer to your exhaustive info here.
