Hi Jessica! Welcome to planDisney.
Oh Boy! You picked in my opinion, the most food allergy-accommodating vacation location in
Walt Disney World Resort. As both a food scientist and Aunt of the cutest highly food-allergic nephews, I can tell you Disney works very hard to provide an inclusive dining experience for all of its guests.
Please refer to the
Special Dietary Request page for valuable dietary information. To help plan ahead, most restaurants have allergy-friendly menus posted online. I would do a search of those restaurants you are interested in visiting. Also, even the counter-service and kiosk locations have allergy-friendly menus available upon request. They are very easy to navigate and clearly state which allergy groups each menu item covers. Scroll down the
Be Our Guest Restaurant menu to the end to view the allergy-friendly section.
At
Walt Disney World Resort restaurants, you can expect your server to ask if there are any allergies the restaurant should be mindful of with your party. If the server forgets to ask, I recommend you state early on what your special dietary needs include. Because one of my nephews has over four major food allergies, two weeks before his arrival an email is sent to Special.Diets@DisneyWorld.com to request a special dietary request form. The Special Diets Team assists his family with navigating the dining process. As an example, at
Chef Mickey's, a special meal is created just for his family and brought to the table.
Keeping it Magical,
Cindy
