How to eat vegan at Orlando, FL’s Walt Disney World

In October of 2019, Disney launched a plant-based initiative that brought more than 400 vegan items to dining locations at Walt Disney World (and Disneyland, too!). With a resort roughly the size of San Francisco, we’d have to hire a full-time vegan Disney correspondent to get through it all. Instead, we’ve created a guide that will enable you to confidently navigate all the options without fear of animal cross-contamination or ordering a meal that is anything less than Fantasmic-level spectacular. 

To have the best dining experience possible, your first step after securing your ticket should be to download the My Disney Experience App. From there, you can make your park reservations for each theme park you want to visit. 

You can also make dining reservations on the app up to six months in advance, look up menus, and mobile orders at counter service locations. Passholder tip: load your payment information onto the app before entering the park to avoid holding out your credit card in a crowded line. A villain might swipe it!

Vegan dining tips

Beyond the parks, there’s still plenty more to consume between the hotel dining options,  Disney Springs, and the water parks. The takeaway here is that depending on your culinary interests (plant-based meats, tofu, or vegetable-forward dishes), there is truly something for everyone at Walt Disney World. Here are the things you need to know when navigating a menu at the Walt Disney World Resort.

When looking at menus on the app or website, each plant-based option should be clearly noted. If it doesn’t say “Plant-Based,” then it contains animal products. However, that’s not to say you cannot modify the item if you ask politely. Disney Parks & Resorts chefs really hold the gold standard for accommodating guest allergies and dietary needs. Many of the chefs at the Walt Disney World table service restaurants love creating dishes on the fly from guest requests. So if the menu doesn’t look like something you’d enjoy, or you have specific requirements, just ask to speak to a chef and they’ll help you out. Also, take note that new items are added all the time. Always feel free to ask a chef what’s new or see if they have any vegan ice cream or other items that may not be on the menu. You never know, with a little faith, hope, and pixie dust, vegan dreams do come true.
