Hi, Michele! This is a really great question, because my oldest child was the oddest kid growing up - she hated virtually everything on the kids' menus. She wouldn't eat burgers, chicken nuggets were her arch enemy, and she wouldn't do anything red, so that eliminated pizza and spaghetti. I know she's not the only anti-kid food kid in existence.
Walt Disney World has so many amazing dining experiences available, and I also want to say that they have really stepped up their game when it comes to kids' meals. But if your child wants something from the adult menu at any of the quick service
Walt Disney World dining locations, they are welcome to order from the adult menu.
If you are doing one of the Disney Dining Plans that includes table service meals, that is the only time your child will have to order from the children's menu. All quick service
Disney Dining Plan credits are the same - whether they are for an adult or a child. For example, if you are on the Quick Service dining plan, your family gets a pool of credits based on the length of your stay - let's say 20 credits, for example - which can be used by either children or adults. On a plan that includes a table service option, the credits would be split up so there might be 10 adult and 10 children credits.
I hope you get to enjoy some fun dining experiences on your upcoming trip!
