Vegetarian/Vegan Counter Service Meals in the Parks
Magic Kingdom | Epcot Future World | Epcot World Showcase | Disney’s Hollywood Studios |
Animal Kingdom
Vegetarians and vegans may be concerned that won’t be able to find quick, satisfying meals at Walt Disney World, but we think they’ll be pleasantly surprised to find that there are, in fact, quite a few choices throughout the parks and resorts to meet the needs of many different diets. Below, you will find a chart showing many of the vegetarian options.
Vegan items, or items “veganizable” by omitting an ingredient or two, are noted in the comments section. Please use this only as a guideline — things are always changing at Walt Disney World, and not everything here is verified. Please also note that refined sugar has not been taken into account when researching vegan items. If you have allergies or other concerns, ask a Cast Member for more information. Most counter service places also have an ingredients list available on request.
For some vegan snack ideas, soft pretzels are all vegan. We believe that all Disney French fries are vegan, but if the location sells other fried items (such as chicken nuggets), then the fries are most likely cooked in the same oil. There are also fresh fruit carts in all the theme parks, with some surprisingly tasty choices. And the popcorn sold in all the parks is, despite its “buttery” appearance, is vegan.
Also, it’s worth noting that while Disney generally frowns upon outside food being brought into the parks, this policy is waived for special dietary needs. (However, alcoholic beverages and hard-sided coolers are strictly prohibited.)
