A delicious collection of the Best Restaurants in Disney World along with the top places to eat while visiting the parks, including a list of TOP 10 restaurants at each park.

Be sure to also check out our guide to Best food at Disneyland and our Best Food at Star Wars Land too!!

Best Food at Disney World

There’s nothing like going to Walt Disney World with some of your favorite foodie friends. I’ve been lucky enough to do this a few times over the years to attend Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival and to eat our way through the parks. You guys know just how much I love food, so to be there to try the best restaurants in Disney World and attend the festival is a dream come true!

I am often asked questions about Walt Disney World, but the most popular question is – What is the BEST food at Disney World?

You see, Disney World isn’t just about the rides or the characters or the atmosphere. Yes, all of those things are amazing and magical, but one of the best things is the FOOD! Everywhere you go you will find delicious treats and yummy things to eat. If you’ve been you’d agree because as you know, the scents of popcorn, cookies and cinnamon fill the air.

Having visited the parks multiple times over the past five years, we’ve been able to try so many different foods. Of course, it would be impossible to try every food at Disney World in one trip (especially because they’re always adding new treats), but that’s where several good friends come in handy.

We often ordered different items on the menus so we could all taste each other’s food, which allowed us to try so many things. Doing that and making notes of all of our favorite items made it possible to compile today’s collection of the BEST food at Disney World

NOTE: Be sure to check out all the best food at Disneyland too!!

WARNING: TONS OF PICTURES IN THIS POST!!!  

Before I begin, I must remind you that since eating is such a huge part of the Walt Disney World experience, it is a good idea to make dining reservations as soon as possible. If staying at a Disney resort, guests can reserve 180 days in advance of their day of arrival and make up to 10 days of Advance Dining Reservations that same day, either online or by calling (407) WDW-DINE (939-3463). Many restaurants sell out within minutes each day, exactly 180 days in advance, so if you are set on eating at a specific place, be sure to call. Be sure to take note of some of the most popular Disney World restaurants, as well as the Character Dining establishments.

Also note that many locations now participate in the Mobile Food & Beverage Ordering. Just use the My Disney Experience app to order, pay for and pick up food through out the Walt Disney World resort – super convenient!

Most Popular Disney World Restaurants:

• Be our Guest at MAGIC KINGDOM
• Cinderella’s Royal Table Character Breakfast at MAGIC KINGDOM (also a character dining location)
• Chef’s Table at Victoria and Albert’s in the GRAND FLORIDIAN RESORT
• California Grill in the CONTEMPORARY RESORT
• Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue & Mickey’s Backyard BBQ dinner shows at FT. WILDERNESS
• Spirit of the Aloha Luau at POLYNESIAN RESORT

Disney Character Dining

One of the best ways to dine at the parks is to choose a character dining experience where you can eat yummy food as well as get appearances from some of your favorite Disney characters. Many of the Disney resorts have these experiences too, but here are some of the theme park character dining experiences that can’t be missed!

• Cinderella’s Royal Table
• The Crystal Palace
• The Garden Grill
• Akershus Royal Banquet Hall
• Hollywood & Vine
• Tusker House Restaurant

MAGIC KINGDOM FOOD

There are so many great places to eat at Walt Disney World, and I thought it would be easiest to do by breaking down the list by park/area and restaurant. Within each place to eat, I’ve listed my favorite foods along with some of the most popular items on the menu.

I’ve linked to each dining location as well as to the menu for each place. I’ve also listed the cost of each place with a “$” symbol (the more $’s, the more expensive it is). Last but not least, I’ve highlighted in RED my absolute favorite foods at Disney World. These are all items I have personally tried and would definitely make sure I got each time I came to the parks. 😉

It’s impossible to go to Magic Kingdom and NOT get a Dole Whip Float!

Going to Be Our Guest is just like stepping into the movie, Beauty & the Beast. It looks just like the castle and is simply magical!

Although we spent the majority of the time stuffing our faces, we did get in some other fun by attending Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party. Fun costumes, special treats, villains galore and tons of candy make this the place to be in October. I’m dying to take my kids because it is SO. MUCH. FUN!

So glad American Tourister sent us a piece from their Disney Collection to help us bring back all our goodies and souvenirs for our family!

I hope this collection helps you out when you’re planning your next Disney trip. For even more information about all the food at the most magical place on Earth, be sure to visit: Disney World Dining.
