    I wanted to find out what I can get at the Akershus Royal Banquet Hall that would be Gluten Free. I am planning on going with my family next summer and my 7 yr old and I both have Celiac disease and can not have gluten.

    Hi Michelle,

    I'm sorry to hear about your food allergies, but no worries!  When making a reservation for a table service restaurant please let the reservationist know what your allergies are.  They will make note of it and let the restaurant know in advance.  Upon your arrival, make sure you remind the Castmembers of your allergies.  The Chef will come out to speak with you about the selections.  You can also email Disney's food experts at specialdiets@disneyworld.com.  You can let them know your concerns in detail and they will help you by giving you more information and solutions.  Disney is wonderful at dealing with special food needs.

    Don't avoid the Quick Service restaurants.  When at a Quick Service restaurant all you need to do is ask for their "ingredient book".  Each restaurant has one behind the counter.  Feel free to ask for help.  The Castmembers are trained to help with this.  

    You can go ahead and make your reservation at Akershus.  Even if you don't do any of the above, you can tell your server while you're at your table.  The chef will still come out to speak with you about gluten free selections.

    Have a magical time on your vacation!

Magic Kingdom still takes my breath away, but my favorite place to be is on a Disney ship looking at the horizon and breathing in that crisp, clean ocean air!  I love planning Disney vacations for others and making sure it's more than they dreamed. Learn More About Marisol
