Exciting news for our foodie fans! We’re thrilled to announce that ALL of our major quick and table service restaurants will soon be serving up plant-based options at Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort – along with a new plant-based menu icon coming to Disney dining. Our guests will now be able to choose from hundreds of sweet and savory creations, including many brand-new dishes destined to become fan favorites!
We’re
always looking for ways to bring more flavor, innovation, and creativity to the
Disney dining experience – and guest feedback is first on the menu when we
evolve our menus and develop new dishes. Our guests have embraced our
plant-based offerings at our parks around the globe, inspiring us to expand our
menu and introduce a new menu icon, a green leaf, that will make it easier than
ever to find these creations during your visit.
These fun and flavorful options are made
from plant-based ingredients like vegetables, fruits, grains, nuts, seeds, and
legumes – and are made without animal meat, dairy, eggs or honey. From
comfort-food classics to exciting new dishes for the adventurer in all of us,
everyone will find something to delight their tastebuds.
On October 1 at quick service locations and October 3
at table service locations, Walt Disney World Resort will launch the
plant-based menu icon and introduce new options at our theme parks and resort
hotels. If you’re craving tasty plant-powered snacks and treats during your
visit, you can explore more than 400 craveable dishes!
