Hello there, Kimberley! A very warm welcome to
planDisney, and thank you so much for stopping by with your question. I’m so glad you’re here, and I’d be more than happy to help!
When it comes to dining at
Walt Disney World Resort, I’m happy to share that Guests of any age are welcome to order from the kids’ menu... yes, even teenagers (and adults, too)! So your 15-year-old is more than welcome to request a meal from the children’s selection at most
dining locations across the Resort.
That said, there’s a little detail to keep in mind: while quick-service locations will typically honor the price listed on the menu regardless of age, table-service restaurants often take a slightly different approach. In many cases, they’ll still serve the kids’ meal, but they may increase the portion size slightly and charge the adult price for it. It’s always a good idea to kindly ask your server in advance so you know exactly what to expect!
In my experience, the Cast Members are wonderfully accommodating, especially when it comes to picky eaters, lighter appetites, or Guests who simply prefer the offerings on the kids' menu. I’ve even seen grown-ups happily enjoying mac and cheese or chicken nuggets, zero judgment in sight. Because hey, it’s Disney!
Kimberley, I hope this gives you a little extra peace of mind as you plan your family’s magical meals. If you have any other questions about dining, tickets, or hidden Mickeys, we’re always here and so happy to help.
Warm hugs,
Ana Paula
