For families with allergies and special diets, the question of where to eat can be the most stressful parts about visiting the park. But what we love about Disney, is how they go above and beyond to make sure that everyone can have great experiences with gluten-free dining at their parks.
I’ve written about our experience eating gluten free at Walt Disney World, and if you are looking for tips for eating at Magic Kingdom, Hollywood studios , Animal Kingdom or any of the other Disney Parks, check out my Ultimate Guide Blog Post for How to Eat Gluten Free at Disney World.
Disney Springs is full of options and we have never been disappointed.
Things to Know Before You Eat.
But today, let’s talk about Gluten Free Disney Dining OUTSIDE of the parks. Disney Springs, formally known as Downtown Disney, is a theme park for shopping, dining and entertainments.
Not all of the restaurants here are associated with Disney, but you can still make recommendations in advance through the Disney Dining reservation site.
When you do it this way, you are able to indicate that someone is your party has allergies or dietary restrictions and a cast member, manager or chef will come to speak to you if you have questions about allergens.
I always recommend this when you have food allergies. Unless it is a quick-service spot that you have eaten at before with no problems. And even then, make sure you talk to the manager or chef to make sure there are no changes or chances from cross contamination.
