Favorite Places to Eat at the Magic Kingdom Disney World

Purple Star emoji 16 items
Let's face it, Disney has lots of options of places to eat but are any of them any good?!?!?  It still is an amusement park so expectations can not be high, but with that said, if your going to eat in the park I have listed out my favorite locations for nabbing a meal or a snack.  For someone who has a husband who really likes food, kiddos that can be selective, and myself who just wants a quiet cool place to rest, I give you my top picks to make the eating portion of your day better!

Best Fast Food Magic Kingdom

My top picks to grab a bite to eat at the Magic Kingdom

A favorite of many of the people I travel with to Magic Kingdom as often everyone likes Mexican and you can easily split the Nachos.  For those that don't like Mexican you can grab a cheeseburger off the menu.  I find this place to never be crazy busy and the dark atmosphere is a nice change from the sunny hot sun outside.
Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn & Cafe | Walt Disney World Resort

Probably my personal favorite quick service restaurant at the Magic Kingdom.  I enjoy seafood (and if you don't there are some non seafood options) and a nice quiet place to eat.  I often find a corner somewhere upstairs and enjoy some time away from the crowds.

This is a great location for those who like Italian type food, particularly flatbread and pizza.  They have some chicken and salad options as well.  The one thing I really like about this spot is you can sometimes get a table overlooking the ride “It is a Small World” which gives the kiddos something to look at during your meal break.

Ok, I am not going to lie… I personally am not a big fan of this place but I have some picky eaters in my extended family and we often find ourselves here.  It has those burgers, chicken sandwiches and tenders, and some fries that seem to satisfy many of the picky eaters in a group.  They do offer some salads as well.  I much prefer sitting inside as I don't really enjoy listening to the Tomorrow Land Speedway as I eat.

Magic Kingdom Sit Down Restaurants

Best Places to take a more leisure break and have a sit down meal at the Magic Kingdom

Hands down this is my favorite and in my opinion BEST restaurant over all, not just sit down restaurant at the Magic Kingdom.  So much so on my last two week trip I ate here three times!  I always request if possible for one of the back rooms as it is more quiet.

Maybe not the best food and overpriced but sometimes you just have to do it once to say you ate in the castle!
Cinderella's Royal Table

For maybe the less adventurous eaters who may like a meal that is similar to Thanksgiving!

Food in general is rated better then Cinderella's Castle, and better bet for those big Beauty and the Beast fans as it is a character meal just as Cinderella's Castle.

Quick Service Eats and Coffee Magic Kingdom

Sometimes you needs something quick or are looking for your next coffee fix!

Sometimes you just want something fresh and healthy, not fried…. I love this spot just for that reason but try not to cringe too much when you see the prices! It pays to have fresh at Disney World.

So you never made it to Port Orleans French Quarter to have the famous Disney Beignets and a coffee near by at Westwards Ho.

Need a quick breakfast sandwich or for lunch candied bacon skewer.  Or maybe a coffee or a frozen slushy.  This is a great quick service for a few tasty treats.

If your looking for that special coffee and a tasty pastry or even a savory breakfast sandwich, this is a great stop.  But expect lines and crowds first thing in the morning.
Main Street Bakery Featuring Starbucks Coffee - Disney World

Some people love the Dole Whip and fruity desserts others like ice cream based.  I much prefer ice cream.  They change up their menu and have some specilites from time to time.  Or if you need your coffee with a little ice cream, this is the place!
Auntie Gravity's Galactic Goodies | Walt Disney World Resort

For those who like their fruity soft serve, this is the place to get it!
Aloha Isle | Walt Disney World Resort

Another great spot for a breakfast sandwich or maybe some tater tots!  They also have apple cider doughnuts! Mac and Cheese hand pie and hot dogs.  So something a little different.

So I am not a big cinnamon roll fan and that seems to be the favorite thing here.  But rather Ham and Gruyère Tart is a savory option that might please others.  In addition it is kind of fun to get the LeFou's Brew, frozen apple juice with a hint of toasted marshmallow, topped with passion fruit mango foam. Or you can just go get a large pretzel from across the Little Mermaid ride! :-)
